À propos de cet audio
In this fourth book in the legendary Lymond Chronicles, Francis Crawford of Lymond desperately searches the Ottoman empire for his kidnapped child.
Somewhere within the bejeweled labyrinth of the Ottoman empire, a child is hidden. Now his father, Francis Crawford of Lymond, soldier of fortune and the exiled heir of Scottish nobility, is searching for him while ostensibly engaged on a mission to the Turkish sultan. At stake is the political order of three continents, for Lymond's child is a pawn in a cutthroat game whose gambits include treason, enslavement, and murder. In that game's final move, which is played inside the harem of the Topkapi palace, Lymond will come face to face with his most implacable enemy and the dreadful ambiguities of his own nature.
With a foreword by the author.

“Exciting, dangerous, fascinating.”(The Boston Globe)
“[Dunnett’s] hero...is as polished and perceptive as Lord Peter Wimsey and as resourceful as James Bond.” (The New York Times Book Review)
“Vivid, engaging, densely plotted.... Dunnett is a master of suspense and misdirection.” (The New York Times)
The narrator, David Monteath, does a masterful job with all the characters and the complex plot line.
As I recently finished reading this series, I was eager to hear the flow of this saga in audiobook format. The flawed hero (Francis Crawford of Lymond) is Scots and I wanted to hear his voice with its Scots inflection. I have been very pleased with these audiobooks and I cannot imagine anyone being able to do it better. it is superb.
Thank you.
Book 4, Lymond Chronicles...a great performance!
