Summary
Silver in the Wood
There is a wild man who lives in the deep quiet of Greenhollow, and he listens to the wood. Tobias, tethered to the forest, does not dwell on his past life, but he lives a perfectly unremarkable existence with his cottage, his cat, and his dryads.
When Greenhollow Hall acquires a handsome, intensely curious new owner in Henry Silver, everything changes. Old secrets better left buried are dug up, and Tobias is forced to reckon with his troubled past - both the green magic of the woods and the dark things that rest in its heart.
Drowned Country
Even the wild man of Greenhollow can't ignore a summons from his mother when that mother is the indomitable Adela Silver, practical folklorist. Henry Silver does not relish what he'll find in the grimy seaside town of Rothport, where once the ancient wood extended before it was drowned beneath the sea - a missing girl, a monster on the loose, or, worst of all, Tobias Finch, who loves him.

Surprisingly enjoyable
A light meander through 10,000 years of a wood and a few people who love saves. It’ll have me thinking for a while about temptation, duty, and the choices that lead to a twisted path or being whole.

Amazingly performed and a beautifully written story
I adored both these stories though if I had to pick one, the first was my favourite. The writing style is stunning and really creates this amazing world of magic and strange creatures. I loved spending time in this world with the narrator who made each character stand out beautifully.
Need to get myself a physical copy!!

Stunning. Best thing I've read all year
What a gorgeous rendition of a beautiful story. It's so tender and speaks to something I hold dear having grown up in the English countryside exploring ancient woodland.
Beautiful narration and truly touching.

Great, unusual stories
I thought these stories were really well told, the author has a great imagination. The narrator was perfect, I wish he could read all the audio books!

Calm
Slow, but beautifully read. A compelling pair of novellas, the imagery and scenery are well described

Beautiful stories and perfect narration
This was such a wonderful listen. Both the story and narration were perfect. The story was like a fairytale and the narrator's deep and calm voice was a fantastic fit for it.

A hidden gem read by a brilliant narrator
I found this book when I was looking for books read by Matthew Lloyd Davies, as he's one of my favourite narrators. I'm so glad that I stumbled across it. I very much liked the characters, the gentle humour and the plot of both stories. The narration by Lloyd Davies was perfect. He made it easy for the listener to distinguish between different characters, which is not always the case with some narrators. ***Slight spoiler ahead***
What a shame that Emily Tesh did not continue the Greenhollow series beyond the Drowned Country, but she seems to have wrapped up Tobias and Silver's story so it seems unlikely that she will return to it
