The Lost Years
by T.A. Barron
3.5 stars
I really wanted to like this one because I love Merlin origin stories (or at least the Merlin show on BBC) but I'm not sure how I feel. I think the audiobook was actually a negative for me on this one because the narrator has an American accent and I expected a British accent so that was a little disappointing. Chapter 4 had some really strong anti-Semitic language which was probably accurate for the time period but still took me off guard. Overall it didn’t leave me wanting to rush out to pick up the next one. None of the characters were super likeable or engaging.
