Brilliant
Even though this is a young adult set of books, I was hooked from the start. What an incredible series and brilliantly written.
I thought I would never get through 43 hours of audio, but it zoomed by.
The Characters are well-defined and have such depth the worlds in which they sit are well-described.
I got involved with Portia and her adventures and can imagine that any child/adult alike would do the same.
The narration by Rafe Beckley was superb. He kept the characters alive and defined each character clearly.
