About this listen

 Years ago, the Child-Goddess Aphrael had hidden Bhelliom, the Stone of Power, at the bottom of the sea. Yet now it is needed again to stop a malign force from spreading evil and destruction across the lands. Sparhawk, Queen's champion, sets out to retrieve the Stone. But others seek the gem for their own diabolical ends. Most fearsome of these are the Shining Ones, whose mere touch melts human flesh from bone. Now Sparhawk finds himself stalked by these creatures out of myth...whose touch is all too real.©1994 Del Rey (P)2009 Audible, Inc. Action & Adventure Epic Epic Fantasy Fantasy Fiction Royalty

Eddings Brooks are my all time favourites, Belgarion books was my introduction to fantasy!

Mirtai was Mirtay, Danae was Denay. No real biggie but the reader likes his Ay.

Name pronounciation sounded a bit weird.

I simpl6t love David Eddings's books a great mix of fantasy and humour. I find myself laughing out loud at times.

The narrator did a pretty good job except for mispronouncing certain words, i.e. styricum when intonating the second syllable. very annoying.

my take on this book and it's narrator.
