The Explorer

Men of the North Series, Book 12

By: Elin Peer

Narrated by: Mia Madison, John Masterson

Flirting with danger is Aubri's idea of fun.

Ever since we were children, I've known Aubri wasn't like other females. She's the daughter of Magni and Laura Aurelius, who raised her to be a fearless warrior.

Men are blinded by Aubri's beauty, charm, and social status. Yet, at 27, no one has succeeded in making her his wife. Starving for adventure, she volunteered for the dangerous work as an Explorer in Old Europe. It's crazy and the mortality rate alone should've made her think twice. But that's the trouble with my friend; she thinks she's immortal. My hardest job right now is protecting her from herself.

Indiana's and Aubri's life-long friendship is put to the test as they find themselves settling into a new life far from home. Her unpredictable and impulsive behavior drives him mad. Without the watchful eyes of her family, Aubri finally feels free to test, try, and discover.

Influenced by the Europeans' relaxed relationship with sex, Aubri develops a fascination that puts Indiana in a difficult bind. Will he break his promise to Aubri's father and let her explore while she can? Or will he do what no one has managed to do before: Make her see reason?

Contains mature themes.

Disappointed

Men of the North has been one of my favorite series, until now. There is a different female narrator, it really ruined the book. Her voice was whiny and petulant, instead of confident and sexy like Noelle Bridges portrayed them.
John Masterson was awesome as usual.

Enjoyed the exploration of Old Europe

Another very entertaining story. The french accent was a bit painful at first but I got used to it. Disclaimer I am French LOL

New female narrator distracting

I hate it when long book series suddenly get new narrators. I’d love to say this an exception, but it’s not. The new female narrator is horrible, she makes all the characters sound the same and sounds nothing like the previous narrator, who brought all the characters alive. I am so happy that the same male narrator is there, he continues to do a great job. I’d like to advocate for all of us, please stop switching narrators when it comes to book series. Trust me, we all notice and we all hate it!

Excellent

Definitely addictive. The whole series was great and I'm sad to let it go now that it's over. I appreciate it being free and wonder why all the best series I find always are. I 100% recommend all the books in this series. The author has done a great job making everyone relatable and each book enjoyable.

Love the story!!!

One thing about Men of the North…it’s always an entertaining. The new generation of Northlanders are really fun to watch. Aubrey and Indiana lived charmed lives. Fortunate to grow up surrounded by all these grownups that have different cultural backgrounds. Indiana is a true Nman with the protector gene ingrained in him. He is so awesome. Aubrey is a shining example of how the Northlands is changing, it’s the Northland woman with a new mindset. Aubrey got them a job as explorers, a stinky profession to Old France and an challenging adventure to them. Aubrey wants to be that pioneer like her mother, her aunt, Raven, Shelly Etc…and just by being her great explorer self she comes up with a plan that will greatly benefit the whole world. It’s a super story with all the political strife and thoughtful positive compromises that make me think Elgin Peer should run for president Lol
