About this listen

Warriors of God, the second volume of the Hussite Trilogy by Andrzej Sapkowski, author of the best-selling Witcher series, depicts the adventures of Reynevan and his friends in the years 1427-28 as war erupts across Europe.

Reynevan begins by hiding away in Bohemia but soon leaves for Silesia, where he carries out dangerous secret missions entrusted to him by the leaders of the Hussite religion. At the same time, he strives to avenge the death of his brother and discover the whereabouts of his beloved. Once again pursued by multiple enemies, Reynevan is constantly getting into and out of trouble.

Sapkowski's deftly written novel delivers gripping action full of numerous twists and mysteries, seasoned with elements of magic and Sapkowski's ever-present - and occasionally bawdy - sense of humour. Fans of the Witcher will appreciate the rich panorama of this slice of the Middle Ages.

Warriors of God by Andrzej Sapkowski. Normally, as an anti-theist I stay away from books surrounded in religion but I became a fan of this medieval take by the close of the book. The work was detailed and the narration by @PeterKennyVoice incredible. 📚 5/5⭐ #BookReview storyline

Normally I refrain from reviews, but recently poor performances have made me appreciate really good ones, Peter Kenny masterfully delivers almost perfect native pronunciation, Latin and a myriad of accents and inflections that make you feel like you’re there.

FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE!

Peter Kenny is as usual wonderful and the adventures just get better and better. I now need to await book 3 but it is a price well with paying for more of this delightful story. I really had doubted that this would be as good as the Witcher books but it really is whilst being set in a completely different time... I do keep expecting Cirilla or Yennifer to appear but there are other nice occasiional links suggesting this world may be their world or may just have been conjoined.

This series is not the straight historical fiction that I had expected but is better for it.

Just so unbelievably wonderful

Again, it's not for everyone, but if you like your historical fantasy extra historical then you won't be disappointed. If you are not a historical fanatic, you can still enjoy the story by treating all the names and places as flavor, and not necessarily something to be remembered. The iteration is also great, it must have been hard to work with so many different languages and references, and not butcher them completely.

Great sequel

Too many characters to start with and then eventually it settled down. Can't wait to read the next one. As always brilliantly narrated.

Better as you get further in to the book.

After finishing the Witcher series, I couldnt think that another series of books could give me the same sense of satisfaction in terms of fantasy & lore; but once I read the Tower of Fools, I was given quite a surprise.

Though with this second book in the series, I was left frustrated at times. I felt like there were too many sub-plots to the story and too many characters to recollect. I understand that depth is needed when creating lore, but I guess moderation could have helped in making the story in general more straightforward. By the halfway point I was close to finishing abruptly.

Despite this, I an glad that I stuck through to the end; the final third was worth the wait and as always, Peter Kenny delivered another brilliant performance. Looking forward to reading the final book.

Tedious story, but worth it at the end.

Well read historical fiction with a whiff of supernatural. This is the second in the series and the complexity of the period is well captured in a most entertaining style.

Excellent read

Ok so I’ve listened to the entire Witcher series and now book 2 of the Hussite trilogy. Fantastic writing but it took at least 20 hours of listening to adjust to it. The same goes for the narrating.
I would be saying the same things others have said when complementing the writing and narrating.
Although I have ended up absolutely loving the style of writing, the constant blurry moral line that Andrej plays with, the infinite arsenal of voices Peter has for the characters that bring it all to life, I’ve got to say there’s a bit too much singing in this trilogy so far. It’s tricky because it’s one of those things that translates better in writing, and Peter can’t exactly say “and this song was about how they’ll keep on marching” instead, so, not much to do about it really!
Thank you so much to both writer and narrator for all of these books. Onto the last one for me, and then I’ll be at a loss for what to do long drives to and what to sleep to!

9/10

I pulled my self through 4 hours and just could take it anymore, the overwhelming amounts of names and places just killed it for me. Narrator does a great job but the story is just too much for me, I had to give up.

Tedious

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Most was tedious as far too much unnecessary historical and other extraneous detail drowned out the adventure. I struggled to the end just to find out what happened but kept wanting it to just finish. It feels almost as though what is being recounted is an excuse to demonstrate knowledge but even there the plethora of other detail and languages render the facts forgettable. A great shame - a tighter edit would have made it enjoyable on all fronts. The narration of such a monotonous read was excellent and needs a commendation.

In dire need of editing
