About this listen
The sequel to the critically acclaimed The Children of Gods and Fighting Men, The Words of Kings and Prophets is the powerful historical fantasy audiobook by Shauna Lawless.
Ireland, 1000 AD. Gormflaith is unhappily married to Brian Boru, High King of Ireland, and although a queen she struggles with her limited position. As an immortal Fomorian with the secret gift of magic, Gormflaith has a burning desire: to find and destroy the hidden fortress of her sworn enemies, the Descendants, who seek to kill her kind at all costs. She begins to use her magical powers, and discovers she is more skilled than she ever realised... but can she control what she will become?
Meanwhile Fódla, the Descendants' healer, mourns her banished sister but clings to life as the guardian of her young nephew. She seeks a place of safety for them both, but he has secrets of his own that could threaten everything—and Fódla must do all in her power to keep him hidden away from those who would use him for evil.
When a mysterious man comes to King Brian's court, his presence could spell disaster or deliverance for both Gormflaith and Fódla—and for Ireland herself. For he is Tomas, an ambitious immortal with few scruples—and he will do anything to see his plans become reality.
Soon, mortals and immortals alike are drawn towards a bitter conflict that could decide the future of Ireland and all her people.

Gael song 2
I liked the narrator from book 1 best, I feel the addition of the new narrators in this book was unnecessary, as their performances were not as strong.

Good story but....
shame about the narration. The original narrator is very good but the other female voice not so good, she seemed to be inexperienced and detracted from the enjoyment, sometimes rushing and sometimes just being unprepared, or reading badly. I will listen to the third part and hope for better narration.

great story
The story is gripping . I love the characters and their journey. I prefer the narrator of the first book, however. I felt it was a bit of a let down having three different narrators. The second female narrator slightly ruined it for me.

Brilliant 2nd book in the series
This book was brilliant as was the 1st book. The narration by Aoife McMahon was, as is always beautifully done. Please let Aoife be the only narrator for book 3!

This is how audiobooks should be.
Just like the first book I throughly enjoyed my time in this world created by Shauna Lawless. The audio performances were great, having three distinctive voices really added to the experience. I found myself finding more and more reasons to find an excuse to listen. Roll on book three.
