Story
Long before the sword-wielding heroes of legend readily cut down forests, slaughtered the old deities, and vanquished their enemies, there were playful gods, animal-headed kings, mischievous lovers, trickster harpists, and vegetal magicians with flowering wands. As eco-feminist scholar Sophie Strand discovered, these wilder, more magical modes of the masculine have always been hidden in plain sight.

Bringing back happy memories.
I read the series about 30 years ago and loved it. Now after listening to it narrated, I remember why. Totally brilliant story. 👍🙌💕

Great story - but where is no. 2 in the sequence??
If you could sum up Over Sea, Under Stone in three words, what would they be?
Growing sense of menace
Any additional comments?
I really enjoyed this first book of the series. It reminds me of Famous Five - but with delightfully sinister and magical elements. It really hooked me in and I eagerly searched for the second book in the series on Audible and found all the others in the sequence but not book no. 2 "The Dark is Rising".... Poo.

fantastic start to an amazing series
These novels are timeless.
Susan Coopers works are YA fiction but equally compelling for OA :)
10/10 recommend 👌

Fantastic!
Enjoyed listening to this book so much. The narration was perfect for the story too. At 56 I am a bit late coming to this trilogy for the 1st time, but it didn't stop me enjoying every minute!

Great Children's Story
I was given this book for my 40th birthday so am ranking it a 3/5 as I prefer young adult or adult books. If you are a child or teenager then I suspect you will enjoy this story and narration!
