Re: The Shadowy Horses (10:30am October 12, 2012):

I love a well done dialect. It makes the book ring even
truer to character. I am guilty though of being a sucker for
a brogue. Some series I will only listen to on audio when
the narrator does a good job because it makes the experience
even more enjoyable.

Diana Galbadon's Outlander series is a perfect example. I
buy the books too but listen as well because the narration
is perfect. I am listening to Nora Robert's Circle Trilogy
now and am enjoying the lilt of Irish accents with the clash
of a New york accent. It is quite well done. Plus who
doesn't love Roarke's Irish lilt in the In Death series by
Nora Roberts too. I can't wait to read The Shadowy Horses.
I was late discovering Ms. Kearsley but am catching up
quickly. The Rose Garden is one of my favorite books of all
time!
