About this listen

Chaos is everywhere as the Lord of the Nexus orders his servant Haplo and the human child known as Bane to further their master's work on Arianus, the realm of air.

More important, the evil force that Haplo and Alfred discovered on Arianus has escaped. As Haplo's doubts about his master grow deeper, he must decide whether to obey the Lord of the Nexus or betray the powerful Patryn...and endeavor to bring peace to the universe.

A reasonable performance of a great story

I have the print version of this series and have been annoyed that only abridged versions of the audio existed. While I would have liked a little more from this version of this classic, it worked. The narration is diverse enough to have few voice confusions and the writing is good enough to overcome the few instances of that. It's easy to have mismatched expectations of characters to voices with books this old and well established. I have a lot of respect for the narrator in taking on this project and doing as good of a job as he did.

What is a Kicksey Winsey?

Loved this series when I was a kid and still enjoy it today. I will admit though it seems slower this time around and I’m not sure if it’s the narration or just that I’m older. Either way the story is still good, but I did end up speeding up the narration. I look forward to the next two books as I remember them being my favorite.
