Loves it!

Kathryn does it again!! She brings something for everyone in her stories. I almost wet my pants laughing when the twin bit his grandmother's finger. I so look forward to the next one.

It is so easy to spoil a good man's character.

Valor De Nerra was a knight of honor and duty. He was the Itinerant Justice of the region. A post assigned by the King, a King he was extremely loyal to.
So, to have a situation, in which Valor was to have assassinated the Archbishop of Canterbury, was totally outside the known character of the man.
So here is the full tale of the circumstances behind this horrendous crime, and the part that Valor De Nerra played.

Didn't think I'd like the narrator but...

Brian Gill did a pretty good job. No one compares to Brad Wills! The story was wonderful! made me laugh out loud a few times, and warned my heart at other times. I would definitely recommend giving this book a try!

4 1/2 Great Stars!

This is another great book from Kathryn Le Veque. I have loved everything that I have listened to so far. This book has it all from the plotting, backstabbing, scheming, killing, fighting, and falling in love.
