The Gareth & Gwen Medieval Mysteries Boxed Set

The Good Knight, The Uninvited Guest, The Fourth Horseman

By: Sarah Woodbury

Narrated by: Laurel Schroeder

Join Gareth and Gwen in their first adventures together. Murder, intrigue, and romance in medieval Wales!

The Good Knight:

Five years after Gareth walked away from Gwen in disgrace, she encounters him in the aftermath of an ambush, standing over the body of a murdered king. Although it isn’t exactly the reunion she’d hoped for, by necessity, the pair join forces against the treachery and intrigue rife within the court of Gwynedd.

And once blame for the murder falls on Gareth himself, Gwen must continue her search for the truth alone, finding unlikely allies in foreign lands and ultimately uncovering a conspiracy that will shake the political foundations of Wales.

The Uninvited Guest:

Gareth has returned from the south, and Gwen is overjoyed to find their bond as strong as ever, but all is not well in the court of Owain, king of North Wales. His future in-laws are untrustworthy, the Norman lords on his eastern border are restless, and among his wedding guests lurks a cold-blooded killer.

Gareth and Gwen's wedding plans will have to wait while the pair race to separate truth from lies, friends from foes, and unravel the mystery before King Owain - and his new bride - fall victim to their uninvited guest.

The Fourth Horseman:

May 1144. Newly wedded, Gareth and Gwen travel across the border into England on a diplomatic mission with Prince Hywel of Wales. Within moments of their arrival, however, the mission goes awry and a murder case drops (literally) at their feet.

Hindered at every turn by a climate of civil war and constantly shifting political alliances, Gareth and Gwen race to solve the murder and expose a plot that threatens not only their lives, but the life of the future king of England himself.

Murder, intrigue, and treachery take center stage in The Fourth Horseman, the third in Gareth & Gwen Medieval Mystery series.

Great discovery!

I accidently found this author by looking for box sets plus free for taking! Amazing historical mysteries and written pretty well.
Highly recommend if you could overcome a little monotone performance which I found somehow matching the dark stories. The performer change voice for the different characters so maybe I should give 5 stars to the perfomance? See if you agree.
Also there are great loveble characters, plus character development which could be found not that often especially in free books.
Even the evil antagonists have depth and humanity.

Great Stories

Found a new series to enjoy!!! Interesting historical perspectives. Enjoyed the mystery in the time period. Highly recommend the box set and the series.

My first read of the Gareth & Gwen mysteries

Love the books. The narration is lovely. The mysteries themselves keep you engaged until the very end and the historical context is fascinating.

Wonderful characters

I have enjoyed Sarah's books so much. I love Wales and it's so good to hear a story of the history and surrounding areas of Wales.

Excellent

I am truly a Hugh fan of historical mysteries but usually listen to 1800-1900. But have found this one so intriguing and suspenseful. Great characters and a lot of twist and turns. Each story drew me in and held me until the end.
