Summary
But Bhellion carried dangers of its own. Once the stone came into his hands, Sparhawk found himself stalked by a dark, lurking menace. Whether the foul Zemoch god Azash was behind this threat, or some other enemy, even Sephrenia could not say - only that the sapphire rose held powers too dangerous for any mortal to bear.
Restoring Queen Ehlana would only be the beginning of Sparhawk's mission. With the aid of four stalwart knights, one from each Militant Order, he must thwart Ehlana's poisoner, the Primate Annias, in his plot to assume the throne of the Church. For, as Archprelate, Annias would serve his secret master, Azash, and deliver up to the dread god the one thing Azash thirsted for - Bhelliom itself!

Enjoyed the series
Have you listened to any of Greg Abby’s other performances? How does this one compare?
The same as the others. Took a little while to adjust to the reading in the first book but no problems after that.

Narrator isn't native speaker of English.
I love the story. The narrator sadly left much to be desired. His pronunciation of many standard English words is idiosyncratic to say the least. His characterization of the voices of different characters is difficult to distinguish between individuals at times.

Greg; punctuation!
Mr Abby, the purpose of punctuation in a story, is to pace the narrative to the scene the author is creating. Your ignoring of punctuation makes the story jarring and uncomfortable. Also, expressing appropriate emotion might be worth considering. Just a thought.

The Elenium Triology
Just finished the whole triology, enjoyed listening to this as much as I did reading it so many years ago. Sometimes the main characters are a little too invincible but it is still highly enjoyable all the same. Very well narrated too.

Brilliant read
really enjoyed listening to this story, even though it was years ago when I first read the complete set. David Eddings is such an amazing author.
