À propos de cet audio

The war of Troy is looming, and all the kings of the Great Green are gathering, friends and enemies, each with their own dark plans of conquest and plunder.

Into this maelstrom of treachery and deceit come three travellers: Piria, a runaway priestess nursing a terrible secret; Kalliades, a warrior with a legendary sword; and Banokles, who will carve his own legend in the battles to come.

Shield of Thunder takes the listener back into the glories and tragedies of Bronze Age Greece, reuniting the characters from Lord of the Silver Bow: the dread Helikaon and his great love, the fiery Andromache, as well as the mighty Hektor and the fabled storyteller, Odysseus.

This book, and this series, is probably the best fictionalized version of what most of human history looked like in Europe that I have read. Gemmell gets, and writes, how complicated people are, especially in war. Looking forward to book 3

Better than the first!

For whatever reason, the author though it a good idea to not use any of the main characters in the first novel for over half the book. This book suffers from awful pacing, a myriad of confusing names and additional characters added/killed within chapters with no emotional connection or consequence, and a love of the same adjectives over and over again. This was an absolute chore to get through. The performance was great, but he suffers when it comes to intonation of children.

Huge dip in quality
