“So it is divine retribution, then. The Lord God thought to take Alfonso from me, as punishment for I know not what sins.”
Oh really, Eddie? You can‘t think of a single thing you‘ve done that might not be the greatest? I‘ll give you a minute to think. … Nothing? Innocent as a lamb, are ya?

I started this on Thursday after work. I am having a blast with it so far.

I can‘t believe I didn‘t get an alert about this coming out in April (although I wasn‘t paying a lot of attention). I‘m so excited to have it now, though. I know what I‘ll be doing this weekend, now!
@Texreader it‘s not Rome or anything, but it is an adventure through history. I think everyone will have noses in this, though. lol

I have finished these three books so far since the beginning of the #awesomeapril #readathon. I‘m so proud of myself. I have thoroughly enjoyed these three audiobooks, and I really like the stained glass style of the three covers. The cover art for this series is absolutely brilliant.

pickThis is officially the best book of this series so far. It brings the tiniest, seemingly insignificant things together from the previous two books and suddenly those things are so important. This story takes place mere weeks after the events of book 2, so it feels very rapid and almost urgent throughout. There is a maybe murder, and then a definitely murder, and you don‘t get any real hints until the final few chapters. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
Paladin is rooted in historical fact:
three weeks
after King Edward's
Arthurian-esque
tournament
in
Nefyn, intended to celebrate his tri-
umphant conquest
of Wales,
his
eldest living son, Alfonso, died of an
unspecified illness. Always a healthy
child, unlike his elder brother Henry,
the death was unexpected and with-
out explanation, since he had already
survived the usual childhood dis-
eases that killed so many children
before the age of five.
I‘m so excited to start this next audiobook, just as soon as I get some sleep. I haven‘t had the energy to actually look at words and interpret their meaning in quite a while, so I‘ve been plodding along with this book, just a few pages at a time since 8 January. With Tom Mumford narrating again, this promises to be a great audiobook, and much easier to handle right now.

pickI forgot so much of this book. I‘m not sure why. Possibly because I inhaled it the first time through. I love these books even more as audiobooks. I‘m happy to now know the correct pronunciation of teulu, too.

@Texreader this word appears much more in the Gareth and Gwen series, but either way, I‘ve been reading this word ALL wrong. For some reason I was reading this as something along the lines of too-loo. It‘s actually tay-loo. Now that I‘m looking at it again, that makes sense, but SO wrong. This audiobook is fun in that you get to hear the welsh pronunciation of Arthur. It almost sounds like it ends with a D thanks to the rolled R.
The last audiobook was so good, I immediately began this one last night. I actually managed to stay awake in a more normal schedule, staying up to listen to Tom Mumford tell this story brilliantly until 2 am.
