Publisher's Summary
The Elder Isles, located in what is now the Bay of Biscay off the coast of Old Gaul, are made up of 10 contending kingdoms, all vying with each other for control. At the centre of much of the intrigue is Casmir, the ruthless and ambitious king of Lyonnesse. His beautiful but otherworldly daughter, Suldrun, is part of his plans. He intends to cement an alliance or two by marrying her well. But Suldrun is as determined as he and defies him. Casmir coldly confines her to the overgrown garden that she loves to frequent, and it is here that meets her love and her tragedy unfolds. Political intrigue, magic, war, adventure and romance are interwoven in a rich and sweeping tale set in a brilliantly realized fabled land.

A wonderful tale
I've only read one book by Jack Vance - The Dying Earth - and that was only a few months back. I enjoyed it so I gave this audio book a try. I'm glad I did. I wasn't sure where it was going at first and thought it was going to be a story about a little girl but the tale grew and grew and I really enjoyed it. I do like a good tale set in the world of faerie.
I enjoyed the narration and thought it suited the story well although there were one or two noticeable changes in timbre. But those went unnoticed after a couple of seconds. Other than that I was totally engrossed and really glad I purchased this story.

A great fantasy with interesting characters.
Enjoyed thoroughly. Good narration. Could have done with a cribsheet of names though! It's harder for me to remember who is who without the written word!

Loved it
I read this book as a teen when it was first released, and I thoroughly enjoyed the story. The narrator of this audio book did a great job, and I enjoyed it as much as when I read it all those years ago.

Utterly wonderful
A superb fantasy, whimsical and brutal. Full of romance, intrigue and hilariously convoluted dialogue. Even the crudest troll is eloquent.

Boring
Not worth detailing this review. One star, I put the book down permanently 5 hours in.
