About this listen

Join Gareth and Gwen in their first adventures together. Murder, intrigue, and romance in medieval Wales!

The Good Knight:

Five years after Gareth walked away from Gwen in disgrace, she encounters him in the aftermath of an ambush, standing over the body of a murdered king. Although it isn’t exactly the reunion she’d hoped for, by necessity, the pair join forces against the treachery and intrigue rife within the court of Gwynedd.

And once blame for the murder falls on Gareth himself, Gwen must continue her search for the truth alone, finding unlikely allies in foreign lands and ultimately uncovering a conspiracy that will shake the political foundations of Wales.

The Uninvited Guest:

Gareth has returned from the south, and Gwen is overjoyed to find their bond as strong as ever, but all is not well in the court of Owain, king of North Wales. His future in-laws are untrustworthy, the Norman lords on his eastern border are restless, and among his wedding guests lurks a cold-blooded killer.

Gareth and Gwen's wedding plans will have to wait while the pair race to separate truth from lies, friends from foes, and unravel the mystery before King Owain - and his new bride - fall victim to their uninvited guest.

The Fourth Horseman:

May 1144. Newly wedded, Gareth and Gwen travel across the border into England on a diplomatic mission with Prince Hywel of Wales. Within moments of their arrival, however, the mission goes awry and a murder case drops (literally) at their feet.

Hindered at every turn by a climate of civil war and constantly shifting political alliances, Gareth and Gwen race to solve the murder and expose a plot that threatens not only their lives, but the life of the future king of England himself.

Murder, intrigue, and treachery take center stage in The Fourth Horseman, the third in Gareth & Gwen Medieval Mystery series.

the narrator has a slightly strange voice, but you get used to it quickly. the stories are all complicated and have great characters, the stories and observations of their lives are good. it's impressive that such a huge library of books are available for free. huge thanks to the author and audible for this.

welsh murder and mystery

The dreadful narration. The reader is very wooden and has an American accent! Is it AI? Why is it not read by a Welsh actor? The WELSH characters are given a 'Celtic' accent which is an Irish/Scottish hybrid. There is little difference between the delivery for any of the male characters. This makes the plot lines difficult to follow and rather boring. I nearly gave up within the first chapter but persevered. The latest linguistic infringement us the word route pronounced ROWT.
All in all I'm very glad it was free for me as it would have been cancelled

Sorry I've never felt so disappointed. Th is is a story set in Wales and the reader is American (I think). I gave up half way through as I found her accent unbearable. Partially my fault for not listening to the sample before I started. it just sounded like my sort of story. I love audible and this is my first disappointment.

loved the story.

The narrator has nice cadence but has obviously never heard a Welsh accent. The story is interesting if complex.

Nice story but terrible accents

Good stories let down by the over use of the word "said", it became so distracting, I had to re-read sections! Also, find a narrator that knows a Welsh accent from an Indian/Irish hybrid! I can't believe how many of this author's books are read by this person! The prequel is narrated by an actual Welsh actor with a lovely voice, what happened, was he too expensive?!

hilarious accents & over use of the word "said"
