This was easily my favourite read of the week, and a reread at that. I adore this series so much and I can't think of a coherent thing to say about it! All I want to do is go back to the start and read it again, but that seems excessive when I've now read it twice in the space of 3 months! I'm so annoyed with myself for not reading this series for the first time until August 2017 and missing out on all its goodness until this year. For the longest time I put it off because I love Melina's contemporary books and I was scared her fantasy novels wouldn't live up to the hype, but clearly I was wrong and I should've known better!!
I must say, I love the narrator, Grant Cartwright - he's fantastic and very enjoyable to listen to, adding to the experience that is this book. He also narrates Froi of the Exiles and he does a brilliant job in both, unlike the narrator of Finnikin of the Rock, who makes drives me nuts with his stupid pronunciation of character names and places. Cartwright brings the characters to life and it was a joy to listen to - 5 stars.
