About this listen

The chieftains of Sevenwaters have long been custodians of a vast and mysterious forest and a new heir has been born. But the family's joy turns to despair when the baby is taken, and something unnatural is left in his place. To reclaim her newborn brother, Clodagh must enter the shadowy Otherworld and confront the powerful prince who rules there.

Most of the books that i have got so far i have enjoyed as the person reading the book keeps you gripped until the end of the book

I have enjoyed the twists and turns of the story and the love that the two main people in the story and that she gets her brother back from the Lord of the Oaks

How that she looked after the changling until she could get her baby brother back and then she goes back to get the of live of her life. It follows on from the previous books in the series

Any additional comments?

If you look a good story please dont be put off as it Si-Fi book as it very interesting once you listen to it.

The only thing that spoils the books are the preview of the next book as it just nice to not knowing about the first chapter.

I took a big break from the sevenwaters series as book 3 was a bit disappointing for me. But I’m so glad I came back! Heir to Sevenwaters was amazing and followed on so nicely from the first three books. It’s nice seeing the characters we know and love grow up.
The narration was excellent.

Amazing!

Firstly, the recording is terrible in places. Including the narrator's mistakes which jump you out of the story and have you wondering what on earth is going on. It is by far the worst audio I've ever heard for this.

As is usual for this author,the story itself is a good one but i found it ruined by the repeated attitude that those who are driven to suicide do not love their families or are weak. This is a shameful view of mental health and perpetuates unhealthy and unhelpful attitudes to those struggling with more than they can bear. Not to mention how hard it would be for readers who have experienced such a loss of friend or loved one. It seems to be a repeating thing for this author and is rapidly putting me off her work.

Good story spoiled by ignorant attitude to suicide

I loved the first book in this series and then I thought they slightly went down hill however, this book for me is on parr with Daughter of the Forest. It was wrote beautifully and I loved the language used. The story was full, perfectly detailed and believable, as believable as fantasy goes!
My only complaint is there are a few sound and recording issues throughout, it's not significant but does distract from the story at times, otherwise the narrator is perfect 👌

As good as the first

a few mistakes in chapter 3 which could do with editing out other than that great reading.
