Outstanding audiobook!!

I read The Last Herald Mage Trilogy in the 1990s; it was a gateway to the beautiful, fanciful, and immersive world of Mercedes Lackey. I recently had the privilege of listening to Gregory St. John narrate the outstanding, unabridged recordings of Magic's Pawn, Magic's Promise, and Magic's Price. His excellent narration adds an additional dimension to the already multi-faceted universe of Herald Vanyel in Valdemar. I cannot recommend this series highly enough!

Great story as always; interesting narrator...

This guy repeatedly mispronounces Highjourne (it won't let me do the correct spelling; autocorrect) multiple times. Cannot not even manage to be consistent in pronunciation in the same CHAPTER. High-jorn, high-jor-nes, high-yorn. Its... its not that hard but please at least pick a variation and STICK to it. This was so jarring i had to drop the book several times and swap to something else because it just completely broke the immersion.
