Resumen del Editor
These are dark days indeed for Aquila, a young Roman officer who returns to his family villa to find all that he loves destroyed by the invaders. He escapes slavery only to learn that his sister has married a Saxon, and the knowledge fills him with bitterness.
It takes many years of hardship and strenuous fighting under the Roman-British leader Ambrosius before Aquila finds a measure of contentment, learned partly from the kind and gentle Brother Ninnias, partly from the loving loyalty of his wife Ness, and partly from an encounter with his sister's son, who is fighting with the enemy.
This exciting chronicle, full of stirring incident and bitter conflict, brings to vivid life the turbulent period before the Dark Ages.

This second instalment in the story of the legendary hero begins with Theseus' triumphant return from Crete after slaying the Minotaur. Having freed the city of Athens from the onerous tribute demanded by the ruler of Knossos - the sacrifice of noble youths and maidens to the appetite of the Labyrinth's monster - Theseus has returned home to find his father dead and himself the new king. But his adventures have only just begun: He still must confront the Amazons; capture their queen, Hippolyta; and face the tragic results of Phaedra's jealous rage.

Historia
Alexander's beauty, strength and defiance were apparent from birth, but his boyhood honed those gifts into the makings of a king. His mother, Olympias, and his father, King Philip of Macedon, fought each other for their son's loyalty, teaching Alexander politics and vengeance from the cradle. His love for the youth Hephaistion taught him trust, while Aristotle's tutoring provoked his mind and Homer's Iliad fuelled his aspirations.

It was that transitional time of the world when man first brought the clang of iron and the reek of smoke to the lands which before had echoed only with fairy voices. In that dawn of man and death of magic, there yet remained one last untouched place - the small forest of Ealdwood - which kept the magic intact and protected the old ways. And there was one who dwelt there, Arafel the Sidhe, who had more pride and love of the world as it used to be than any of her kind.

A goddess in the making... or a demon reborn? In the remote mountain village where she was born, Mariarta dil Alicg lives the untroubled life of a peasant girl...until, soon after a mysterious stranger's arrival, she starts to hear voices in the wind. The voices whisper strange secrets in Mariarta's ears -- promising her the power to command the stormwind, hinting at an unknown, magical heritage, and prophesying a fate marvelous past all Mariarta's imaginings. Then a curse falls on Mariarta's village, shattering the lives of her family and friends.

The land is rife with danger, as warlords vie for supremacy and dominion. In the battles for control of the region, new oaths are made and broken, and loyalties are tested to the limits.

Relentless in pursuit of his enemies, he faces challenges which transform him from a boy to a man.

Historia
"Sir Nigel" is a historical novel by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, set in the beginning of the Hundred Years' War, spanning 1350 to 1356. It is the background to Doyle's novel, The White Company, and describes the early life of that book's hero Nigel Loring, a knight in the service of King Edward III. The character is loosely based on the historical knight Neil Loring. The tale, at its outset, traces the fortunes of the family of Loring of the Manor of Tilford in Surrey, many of whose scions had been prominent in the service of the Norman and Angevin Kings of England, against the backdrop of the Black Death.

This is the story of the relationship between two grieving men at war: fierce Achilles, who has lost his beloved Patroclus in the siege of Troy; and woeful Priam, whose son Hector killed Patroclus and was in turn savaged by Achilles. A moving tale of suffering, sorrow, and redemption, Ransom is incandescent in its delicate and powerful lyricism and its unstated imperative that we imagine our lives in the glow of fellow feeling.

Above all, Vasya loves the story of Frost, the blue-eyed winter demon. Wise Russians fear him, for he claims unwary souls, and they honor the spirits that protect their homes from evil. Then Vasya’s widowed father brings home a new wife from Moscow. Fiercely devout, Vasya’s stepmother forbids her family from honoring their household spirits, but Vasya fears what this may bring.

In England in the early 1600s, everyone was forced to join the Church of England. Young William Bradford and his friends believed they had every right to belong to whichever church they wanted. In the name of religious freedom, they fled to Holland, then sailed to America to start a new life. But the winter was harsh, and before a year passed, half the settlers had died. Yet, through hard work and strong faith, a tough group of Pilgrims did survive. Their belief in freedom of religion became an American ideal that still lives on today.

Great story, great for sleeping!
This is one of my favorites, but now I've listened to it so many times I just put it on for falling asleep. The reader's voice is very soothing, and the prose is beautiful.

All around great story
Wonderful story great storytelling very descriptive once you get into it it’s very suspenseful at the beginning it’s a very slow moving story but as you get farther in it just draws you in. I listened to this with my sixteen year old daughter and she found it a little boring at first but as the story progressed she seemed to be drawn in.

Beautiful and sad, like the best and worst of people.
This book, is where the budding of the author’s best talent -which we begin to feel in her first works- has broken into spreading flower.
I almost left my phone in my car after the first rainy night’s listen. There are, sometimes, enough real hurts in our world, that we don’t wish to hear of too real a pain for the newest character to meet us on the pages of a fresh story. His hurts resonated forcefully enough to unsettle my own old wounds.
Next morning, I’d forgotten my desire to throw the book across the room. A bracing sip of strong coffee and a half hour for the story to win its place above a distracted morning’s thoughts, then to find its feet.. and I felt myself well and truly caught up.
I won’t say this is among the best listens… or actually. Yes, I will say that. It isn’t perfect. It’s frustrating even in some ways. But there’s something real, and something quite beautiful about it. How else would a story of pain and honor and the stumbling best effort of one man, and of an entire people, sum up the pain of dusk or the hope for morning? Here is honor. Foolish manliness. And something encouraging about it, despite and because of how real the unfortunate parts of this story and this character are.
Some older works deserve to be forgotten in the mist. This one, I hope is remembered and discovered by more people for a while yet. There’s something refreshing about a well crafted story, where the main sense of triumph, has more to do with the man we walked alongside through it, than in how he helped save his imperiled kingdom or universe.

Typical Rosemary excellence
I have to listen/ read a Rosemary Sutcliff book that I do not thoroughly enjoy. I really enjoyed Aquila as the main character as he was very relatable as a man with a broken spirit. Very well written.

Great historical fiction
This is one of my favorite Rosemary Sutcliff novels about Ancient Britain and a group of "lantern bearers" who try to keep the flame of civilization lit as the Dark Ages loom with the fall of the Roman Empire. The main character, Aquila, is a complex man with a strong sense of duty and decency who faces difficult choices and mixed loyalties. I was introduced to Rosemary Sutcliff's novels in a children's literature class in college, but after listening to all of her books offered by Audible and reading a few in print I realized her writing is more suitable for older teens, young adults and adults. She takes what little is known for sure about Ancient Britain and weaves it into a realistic story line, creating characters that tell us who they are through their actions without wasting words or using unnecessary explanatory narrative. Her style is very lyrical and Johanna Ward has the perfect voice for narrating her books. Sometimes I hit the rewind just to hear a particularly lovely descriptive passage again.
