About this listen

In order for the Storm King can cement his power over Osten Ard, he must find and defeat the rebel forces massing against him. But the rebels, led by the exiled Prince Josua, have rallied at the Stone of Farewell and are ready to fight the Storm King with every power they can muster. The key to their victory lies in finding the third sword of legend, Memory - but the sword has been lost for ages.

Lost, that is, until Simon Snowlock realises that he knows exactly where the sword is and how to recover it. The only problem: an undead army, bolstered by powerful magic, lies between him and his destination. It will take every ounce of Simon's courage and intelligence to journey to and then recover the great sword Memory and bring peace to Osten Ard.

If Simon's quest is to have any hope, Josua must move against the Storm King himself - a journey that will take him across endless seas, through ancient forests and into the stronghold of the Storm King himself.

This is the first half of the the epic final volume in Tad Williams' breathtaking, beloved series Memory, Sorrow and Thorn.

Critic reviews

Williams has begun a well-written, colourfully characterized and very readable saga
The fantasy equivalent of war and peace
Without doubt on of the best fantasy novels I have read
A solid story spiced with political intrigue and strong, appealing heroes. Highly recommended
Williams is our Tolkien, and I suspect his coronation will be confirmed
[A] truly remarkable piece of storytelling . . . a glorious work or art
One of my favourite fantasy series (George R. R. Martin, author of A Game of Thrones)
One of the main reasons I started writing fantasy . . . Tad Williams' work is an essential part of any science fiction and fantasy library (Christopher Paolini, author of the Inheritance Cycle series)
Ground-breaking . . . changed how people thought of the genre and paved the way for so much modern fantasy, including mine (Patrick Rothfuss, author of The Kingkiller Chronicle)

moves along a bit swifter than the first few books. enjoyable to listen to though wish the narrator had a few more variations in accents and left bigger gaps between changes in story location as sometimes i missed the gap and wondered what in earth was going on as the characters changed....

great continuation

I am completely caught up in this world now!
The story is epic, many-layered, full of great characters.
The performance is truly excellent, I don't know how Andrew Wincott manages to make each person, mortal or Sidhe sound so different.

Classic fantasy, you can't beat it!

Another great reading of a wonderful story

I love this book, although I may have to listen to it twice in order to completely follow the story! Contains everything a good fantasy should have, keeping the listener glued to his/her listening device. As for narration, I cannot praise Andrew Wincott enough! The range of voices he narrates is incredible! He has to be No 1 in the charts for narration! Altogether a very enjoyable listen.

Compelling!
