About this listen
In Skandia, there is only one way to become a warrior. Boys are chosen for teams called brotherbands and must endure three months of gruelling training in seamanship, weapons and battle tactics. It's brotherband against brotherband, fighting it out in a series of challenges. There can be only one winner. When Hal Mikkelson finds himself the unwilling leader of a brotherband made up of outcasts, he must step up to the challenge. The Heron brotherband might not have the strength and numbers of the other two teams, but with inventiveness, ingenuity and courage on their side, they might just surprise everyone.

Good story, not sure about the performance.
Having listened to The Rangers Apprentice series read buy William Zappa I had high expectations. I was used to John Keating around the half way point but I never quite got into it.
little things like pronouncing the Oberjarls name "Ah-rak" as opposed to "Eh-rak" in the way i got used to in Zappa's RA readings.
it's mostly a preference thing I guess. for me, good story, slightly distracting performance.

I loved the book and the story the narrator was slightly too posh and slightly annoying and lacked power at times

Narrator to narrator
Listening to a narrator that has a different voice for each character, changes voices depending on the scene being described etc… is hard to jump to a narrator that is just reading the words right upside down as they are written, you lose a lot of the immersion that way…
Other than that I love this series, but better read them yourself or find a different narrator…

The narration left me cold.
The children and I were huge fans of The Ranger's Apprentice series. We loved William Zappa's lively narration. Unfortunately, this narrator bored me to tears. He gives no indication that he appreciated the sentence structure or story line by his tone and pace. Yawn! That will teach me to forget to listen to a sample.....
