This review is from: Hart's Hope: Library Edition (Audio CD)

I have read most of Card's books, but strangely enough, I had never read this one. I found this in audio book form and decided to give it a try.

First I'll comment on the audio book. The reader was Stefan Rudnicki and he did an excellent job with the characterizations. It was obvious who was speaking and the voice fit the characters well. I liked especially how he portrayed the queen as is dripped with evil and sarcasm. The sound quality was excellent and it was easy to understand everything.

The story itself fits squarely in the fantasy genre. The world he creates is interesting and the story line grabbed my attention. Be warned that this is a brutal and graphic book, more so than I expected from Card. Overall I enjoyed the book and would recommend it to readers of fantasy. I would not consider it a kids book though.
