(4.5 stars)

one of the best in the genre (comig-of-age medieval story) here. The reading is good, sometimes the reader stumbles, but it is very minor. I would also like to say that it is absurd that some people come and comment without any kindness or consideration to the work or the author. Criticism is part of being read, but there is a proper way to do it.

The narrators voice fits with this story perfectly. The whole story is well paced and developed. I've never been terribly interested in the war between the Saxons and the Welsh, but the story was engaging.
