À propos de cet audio
When a comet appears in the sky over England in 1066, Ailith, a young Saxon wife, feels sure that it can only bode well, in spite of her husband's fears. With a child on its way, the couple are prosperous and content. Yet, within a year, Ailith's joy turns to heartache as her husband and her child are taken from her and the conquering Normans' advance.
Ailith's grief turns to love for a brief period with Rolf de Brize, a handsome and womanizing Norman invader. She bears him one daughter, but in the aftermath of the Battle of Hastings she discovers a betrayal she cannot forgive....
Years later, the spirited and strong-willed Julitta is determined to find happiness, and yet her life has been filled with pain: from surviving life in a brothel in Southwark to suffering the pain of a forbidden love and a bitter, loveless marriage. Her quest takes her on a Pilgrimage to Compostella to a colorful horse fair in Bordeaux, to the terrors of piracy on the open sea.

Earlier work . Just ok
I've made the mistake of buying the same Chadwick book twice with different release dates and narrators. Narration does make a difference and the second version was better so kept it because I know I'll read it again.
This book was not a repeat. Story was just OK . Narration not in a voice that would be typically associated to young characters in anything other than a memoir. Increasing the speed to 1.2 was marginally better. The ubiquity of the grimace was highlighted by the pronunciation grim ACE. It was very distracting. I finished the book quickly but, unlike the Marshall books, I won't be reading it again.
