Amazing
This was one of the best audiobooks I have ever heard!
The narrator has the most perfect voice for audio books- better than Stephan Fry reading Harry Potter!
The story was excellent! I’ll be listening to it again, very soon!

It draws you in
Right from the start the book draws you in to a world that has so many connections with the reality of here and now, while at the same time layering in situations that makes the reader wonder if it is reality or fantacy that is set out before them. A truely absorbing read.

Lovely audio book
I loved this audio book. It is such a gripping and enjoyable story full of adventure which I think would appeal to all ages.
This was my first time listening to this narrator, he did a great job, he was cast perfectly for the book and really brought the characters to life including some great Cornish accents, which kept me captivated the whole time. It flowed really well, and made the perfect accompaniment to a lazy afternoon!

Travel to Cornwall on a Magical Adventure!
Escape the everyday world and join Peter Morgan as he skilfully narrates The Golden Sword by Rosie Morgan. The listener is quickly drawn in and the characters soon begin to feel like friends. Arthur, Nick and Tamar are about to begin a Summer Holiday like no other, we join them at the start and are carried along as each new adventure unfolds. Every chapter leads us deaper into the mystery and the listener is taken on a gripping listening experience that will delight and enthrall. The reassuring, deep tone of the reader smoothly captures the Cornish landscape creating a perfect sense of place . A great listen if you are on a long journey, or a perfect eescape if you are staying at home.

Highly recommended
I enjoyed every minute listening to this book. Right from the first sentence, I was drawn in and eager to find out what was going to happen next. Ancient myths and legends woven into an engaging modern day adventure. Fast paced, exciting but not frightening.
Beautifully written and narrated. An absolute delight.
