SHADOW DAWN

The considerable vocal talents of Rene Auberjonois once again transport the listener in the sequel to Shadow Moon. The Princess Elora Dannon has spent three years studying and maturing; now she must join her allies as a new war wages in order to save her world from the evil Deceiver. A multitude of fantastic characters, including dragons and brownies, is given voice with grace and imagination by Auberjonois. Accents of Celtic music enhance the other-worldly atmosphere, as does the range of vocal effects: the gravelly menace of the Deceiver, the strength and innocence of the young Elora, and the majesty of the dragons. The third in the series is eagerly awaited. M.A.M. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/JUL 98]
