About this listen
A young woman is both a bard - and a warrior - in this thrilling historical fantasy from the author of the Sevenwaters novels.
Eighteen-year-old Liobhan is a powerful singer and an expert whistle player. Her brother has a voice to melt the hardest heart, and is a rare talent on the harp. But Liobhan's burning ambition is to join the elite warrior band on Swan Island. She and her brother train there to compete for places, and find themselves joining a mission while still candidates. Their unusual blend of skills makes them ideal for this particular job, which requires going undercover as traveling minstrels. For Swan Island trains both warriors and spies.
Their mission: to find and retrieve a precious harp, an ancient symbol of kingship, which has gone missing. If the instrument is not played at the upcoming coronation, the candidate will not be accepted and the kingdom will be thrown into disarray. Faced with plotting courtiers and tight-lipped druids, an insightful storyteller, and a boorish Crown Prince, Liobhan soon realizes an Otherworld power may be meddling in the affairs of the kingdom. When ambition clashes with conscience, Liobhan must make a bold decision - and the consequences may break her heart.

Perfect except for Brock’s narrator
Brock’s narrator got irritating after a while as he gives the end of every sentence an upward inflection. Other than that, this book was just as perfect as everything else Marillier has written!

Very glad I discovered this author.
This is the third audiobook of hers I’ve listened to in the last week. I found the other two a little bit too oriented towards female issues/themes for my tastes, though they were very well written. This one to me has more universal appeal, along with an engaging plot and brilliant character development. Perfect narration as well. I’ll definitely be following this author and probably reading everything she’s written.

Can’t stand the narrators voices!
I love this author but the narrator, more so the one male then the others. His voice makes me cringe, it is like listening to a chair dragging a chair across the floor!
