Summary

A brilliant mercenary must lead his army against the forces of the most powerful wizard alive

Gifted with courage, strength, and the intelligence to know when to fight, Sun Wolf is the greatest mercenary in a land overrun by war. With his first lieutenant, Starhawk - a woman more deadly than any man - at his side, he has laid waste to countless cities, taking the best of their treasures for himself, and distributing the rest among his bloodthirsty crew.

Then a woman comes to him, an emissary from the town of Mandrigyn, a lush port city recently sacked by a powerful, mad wizard of unmatched abilities. She offers Sun Wolf untold riches for the use of his army, but the captain is not fool enough to wage war against a magician. He refuses her offer, but that is not the end of it. The women of Mandrigyn can be very persuasive.

Unsuitable narrator!

wonderful story but aweful narrator, stilted stuttering and no storytelling skills whatsoever.
Quality control audible?

Great story ruined by narrator

Try and find a narrator who reads the English language - I understand the word 'quays' is not uncommon, but to pronounce it KWAYZ is beyond the pale. She also seems to breathe on every second word, and always before any name, which results in unnecessary pauses which interfere with the meaning. I've already had to increase the speed of narration - it doesn't help overmuch, but to listen at 1.0 would be crucifyingly slow. It's a shame - I bought it because I always enjoyed this story, but this is awful!
