Summary
Dive into worlds as captivating as Tolkien's Middle-earth with 'The Ill-Made Mute'. Experience the same immersive awe you felt reading 'The Lord of the Rings' through tales rich in wonder and adventure. Embrace the journey into extraordinary realms. Feel the magic anew. Your escape begins as soon as you press play.
The stormriders land their winged stallions on the airy battlements of Isse Tower. Far below, the superstitious servants who dwell in the fortress's lower depths tell tales of wicked creatures inhabiting the world outside - a world they have only glimpsed. Yet it is the least of the lowly, a mute, scarred, and utterly despised foundling, who dares to scale the tower, sneak aboard a windship and then dive from the sky.
But the hearth-side tails are all true. Unhuman wights are real in all their legions. They haunt every pool, every turn in the road, threatening and tormenting travelers. A perilous journey begins.
The Ill-made Mute Special Edition is revised and extended with extras, including Dart-Thornton's introduction and fragments of her early writing.
"Not since Tolkien's 'The Fellowship of the Ring' fell into my hands have I been so impressed by a beautifully spun fantasy."
~Andre Norton, Grand Master of Science Fiction.

Outstanding
Book one of what is one of my all-time favourite fantasy trilogies, with one of the best narrations I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. I loved the echo voice for the internal voices. Kim Bretton has such a skill with accents and bringing characters to life that is almost unequalled.
I devoured this in two days and I sit in anticipation for The Lady of the Sorrows to be released.
Kim Bretton deserves an Audie Award for this. Exquisite.

A fantastical world with mystery and desire
This is a lovely tale of a foundling's quest for their face, voice and memories. The world is beautifully created and the narration is done well, although my only criticism is that the main character's 'voice' comes across as a bit whiny.
I hope that parts 2 and 3 of the Bitterbynde Trilogy will be available soon!
