Summary
His enemy, the beautiful but deadly vampire queen Lilith, has had over 2,000 years of experience in cruelly killing and changing humans into one of her own - including Hoyt's brother, Cian.
Now, Hoyt, a sorcerer, must travel across the world and through time to find and train the five others Morrigan has prophesized will join him as a circle and do battle against Lilith's army of vampires on Samhain in the land of Geall.
But just who is the witch, the shape-changer, the scholar, the warrior and the vampire? How will this unlikely band of six prepare and become one with less than three months until the possible end of the world?
Following the arrival of Glenna Ward - a modern day witch with a knack for making her own kind of magic, the kind that makes his heart melt - Hoyt must find the strength to save the world, and a love that knows no bounds.

Very poor narrator
I understand that some of the characters are from Ireland but this narrator took it too far. Hoyt sounded angry ALL the time, Cian seemed quite effeminate...and I'm not even going to comment on the other voices as dreadful suffices. I loved the story when read it years ago and thought I'd use up one of my credits to listen to this whilst I work...not going to bother with getting the other 2 books on audible (have them purchased on kindle and in paperback!)...I'd recommend the story just not the audible! A lot of Nora's work has similar themes so don't expect this to be completely different but the storytelling is, as always, something to lose yourself in...gave the story 5* but 3* overall as had to give 1* for performance...not sure 0* is an option???

Similar Storyline
Although I love Nora Roberts, I only got as far as book one.
The storyline (for me) was too reminiscent of Guardians Trilogy, which I had read only 5 months earlier. Maybe in the future I will complete this particular trilogy.

Morrigan's Cross Trilogy
This is the first of a trilogy by Nora Roberts. The three books take the reader from modern day New York to Ireland and to a mythical island in the middle ages. The books ae basically the fight between good and evil with several unusual twists in the characters. Each book is complete on its own but to read the three is very satisfying. Nora Roberts draws the characters in the first books and fleshes them out through the series. They are well thought out and believable as are the evil ones. Nora Roberts never goes to far with the horror that the evil ones can do but can bring her readers imagination to work on what is not written. I would certainly recommend this book to all those who enjoy fantasy fiction and a good read.

The whole plot of the book.
I usually don’t like stories about vampires but Nora has a way with storytelling that has me gripped from beginning to end and even with vampires didn’t disappoint at all and I enjoyed it the twists and turns throughout were exciting and scary and beautiful all at once.

My bestbuy this year
My Mum has been urging me to give NORA Roberts a try for years and I finally succumbed. Morrigan's Cross is the first of the Circle Trilogy. The evil vampire Lillith is leading her army to conqure the human world and enslave human kind and six heros must lead the resistance to stop her. Five extraordinary people and their vampire trainer come together and so the circle is born. This is fantasy at its finest. The style is highly readable and the characterisation is superb. The characters are wonderfully drawn and both likeable and deeply complex. This is as much a saga of love and friendship as it is good verses evil, with a good dose of magic and monsters thrown in. I just fell in love with this book and its sequels and I can't recommend them highly enough.

well
If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more?
I am not sure
What was most disappointing about Nora Roberts’s story?
the narrator
How could the performance have been better?
a different narrator
Any additional comments?
i purchased this book based on the comments I read. Word to the wise listen to the clip first. The premise of the book sounds amazing but was not brought to life by the dreary narration. It sucked the life out of the characters so you did not like any of them!

Shonky performance really put me off
Just about got to the end of this despite the off-putting narration. His portrayal of all the female characters is awful especially the cringeworthy "nu yawk" accent.
It's possible I would have enjoyed this with a different narrator so the story gets two stars.
