I forgot that this one abruptly ends, but I did remember that the next book picks up right where this one leaves off. I also know what‘s coming in the next book, and on audio I‘m probably going to end up bawling. On to the next book. Here goes nothing. Still grappling with the narration, but the stories are so good they seem to transcend that to a certain degree.

These books are so good, even with the dodgy narration, so I‘m greatly enjoying bing listening to this series this month.

500🌟 For once the cover matches the story. I READ THIS IN AN EVENING IT WAS SO GOOD, then Woodbury has to go off and leave it with the most epic of cliffhangers. I seriously need to sleep right now or I would be flying headlong into the next book. As it is, I‘m going to start the next book ASAP. I am equal parts in love and in awe with this book. It seems my wish that the treacherous little brother get his just deserts is about to be granted.

GingerAntics I am almost willing to bet that he is the titular “Lost Brother” of the next book. I just want to bloody read it right now. How am I supposed to sleep under these circumstances?! I am so in love with this book, excited, and thrown off by the cliffhanger that I can‘t even form a sentence anymore. Absolutely everything has had to be edited about this post. So bloody sorry. #theunlikelyspy #sarahwoodbury #amazing (edited) 6y
Texreader Haha! I thought the same thing about the title...not so sure given the premise of this one. Close to finished with it so I‘ll see soon 6y
Texreader I just finished the Lost Brother and the title really has multiple meanings. That‘s all I can say without saying too much. Have your hanky in hand to read this one. 6y
GingerAntics @Texreader seriously?! Damn. The part in this one where the kid and his parents come in and insist on seeing Gareth and he‘s all upset thinking that throwing his life away didn‘t matter got me in this one. 6y

Omg @GingerAntics ! I just finished this one and oh my...it‘s ended with a cliffhanger! These books are awesome!!! I‘m so glad you‘re reading them again and can‘t wait till you get through this one to hear what you think.

GingerAntics Oh that‘s the next one, too. Oh good I can‘t wait. 6y
Texreader @Tex This is an amazing series. Have you read any yet? 6y
Tex2Flo @texreader I hadn‘t even heard of them. I immediately put them on my TBR on goodreads (can‘t travel around Litsy TBR with enough variety). 6y
Texreader @Tex The first Kindle book is free on Amazon. And then they are addictive! Pretty cheap too. I just bought books 6-8. 🤗 6y

I‘m on Book 5 in this series and I feel like I know this Welsh castle inside and out now. Really nice descriptions of places and events—these characters are like good friends now. (The blurb above is from book 4.)

GingerAntics I‘m not sure when I‘m going to be able to get this one (or any other books), probably October-ish, so I‘m going to be reading everything you post. lol 6y
Texreader @GingerAntics What‘s the last book you have in the series? 6y
GingerAntics The Fourth Horseman. I haven‘t started it. I‘m waiting until after I finish my current history book so that I can make the books I do have last longer. My library doesn‘t have them, although it has other books by her. 6y

GingerAntics I sent you an email. I think the book I wanted to read for banned books week will be available in time, so that money can go to getting the next shakespeare play for the read-along and more of these. Litsy needs to get them all entered, though. lol 6y
