Not your typical #2 in a trilogy

What did you love best about Owlsight?

I loved that the second book in this trilogy didn't taper off in a sort of boring rolling attempt to get to the final, more exciting book. Owlsight was just as engrossing as the first book and led well into the third.

Great characters

Love reading about great characters as they develop, learn, and grow. Lackey is excellent at that.

awesome

I have always loved this trilogy! to have it read to me is amazing

Very Good

I have no complaints about this book or performance at all ! Highly recommend listening to book one first . Thoroughly enjoyed it ~

Loved the story, didn't love the reader

I love all the stories of Valdemar, this trilogy is especially fun. Seeing the familiar kingdom off Valdemar from the viewpoint of some non-heralds is interesting and having favorite characters from other books pop up in here keeps it feelings connected.

The narration, however, can be distracting to where it takes away from the overall enjoyment of a great story. I do appreciate that the reader gives each character a unique voice and tone fitting how he sees them. However, the decision to add heavy accents to certain characters was very jarring for me. In particular the accents given to all the humans from k'Leshya (but not Kelvren or Ayshen for some reason) really distracted me from the important roles they played.
