About this listen

To love him is to face her deepest fear...

In search of a legendary mare, Lord Winter enters the crucible of the red sands, forging unbreakable bonds of loyalty and trust with his young companion in the desert. But hidden beneath the ragged costume of a Bedouin boy is a remarkable young woman: Zenia Stanhope, daughter of the extraordinary Queen of the Desert.

Zenia wants nothing of the danger that Lord Winter lives for. She wants only to reach England, far from the blood and sand of the desert. But in one night of terror, condemned to death, their lives are irrevocably bound. Zenia escapes to an English world of elegance and comfort, leaving behind the lonely, fearless man who has changed her life and conquered her heart... until he returns to invade her sanctuary.

Now she must choose between safety and love, but can she find the courage to be the person she was truly born to be?

This is the first book of Laura Kinsale's that I have tried.
This book was well worth the time to listen to, it had adventure, suspense, happiness sadness, I was riveted I could not stop listening until the end.

The narrator was very good and has a nice easy going voice.
I recommend you get this book.
I am now looking for Laura's next book and I hope a new adventure.

Have an Adventure in the desert

It's as if LK lived in the times she writes about, every detail is believable. Some of the storylines are a bit out there, but then again, they are proper rollicking adventures, and I found myself happily going along with them. The greatest pleasure though, is Nicholas Boulton's fantastic range, his perfect voice. Bliss.

Excellent story telling

If you could sum up The Dream Hunter in three words, what would they be?

Fantastic, Amazing, Wonderful!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Lord Winter, because of his complex character and the gradual unfolding of this complex and wonderful book. Be prepared to have your heart ripped asunder and then, thank goodness, put back together again.

Have you listened to any of Nicholas Boulton’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Yes. I have all Laura Kinsale's books up to date and can't wait for the others to be made available. Nicholas Boulton is the most consummate narrator I have ever heard; he can slip into any character and make it his own and that is why these books are so wonderful. What a talent!!

Any additional comments?

Thank you Laura Kinsale, for giving us your wonderful books and persuading Nicholas Boulton to narrate them for us.

Another piece of perfection from Nicholas Boulton!

Loved it, but there were quite a few moments that were annoying. I thought Zenia was quite aggravating, she kept on saying that Arden was mad when i think she was the mad one. She was absolutely obsessed with Elizabeth and that Arden would leave her and she said it constantly to the extent that I couldn't bear her saying it anymore. I thought she was quite pathetic. I have listened to quite a few books by LK and I must say that all her heroines are not very likable, so much so that in the first ones I listened to I took quite long to get into the stories, I thought that each book could have been about 5 hours shorter. But the last 3 were much better.
As for the narrator, he has been absolutely brilliant and that's what kept me going.
I shall continue listening to LK's books because her stories are brilliant but I hope the heroines get better with each one. As I listen to them according to when they were published. So the next one would be My Sweet Folly. But I skipped the first 3 of her standalone Novels.

Loved it

Laura Kindle never disappoints and Nicholas Boulton is always marvelous. Another rollercoaster of adventure, danger, love and damaged but strong characters.

Wow

This book has been wrongly titled. It should be “you will leave me” alternative “I won’t let you take Elizabeth” or something else to that effect. Minute after minute, hours after hours the same phrases all over again and again and again and again and again and again until the last minutes. I fast forwarded the last hours, and every time I started listening the same phrases all over again and again and again and again.

Not worth a credit, that’s for sure.

What a disaster
