THE ILL-MADE MUTE The Bitterbynde, Book 1

This first book in the Bitterbynde series introduces the world of Erith, an untamed place in which humans must face "wights," some good and some evil. Imrhein has no memory of her immediate past, cannot speak, and has been disfigured by poison. In her travels she faces many difficult challenges and finds some mighty protectors. Kris Faulkner draws on a strong store of accents and tones. Her engagement in the plot and its unlikely heroine are maintained throughout. Although the plot is a little hard to follow at times, Faulkner is a good guide. J.E.M. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/ NOV 07]
