Corry showed up at the orphanage two years ago, unable to remember how he’d gotten there. He spoke a language no one recognized, and he was afraid ... read full description

This book, and its two sequels, are a good listen. The world of Panamindorah has a distinct personality and feels like a real place being described to you; a feat so many fantasy novels fail at. The reading is clear and audible. Only a couple sound effects are used, and those are subtle enough that the book doesn't sound like a bad radio drama.
In my opinion, the plot doesn't seem like it's going anywhere until the second book, and none of the characters are really three dimensional unti More...

The Prophet of Panamindorah book one (of three), Fauns and Filinians, is the story of a boy named Corellian (Corry for short) who can't remember his past. All he knows is he doesn't belong in some foster home in Florida. He soon encounters a faun (half human, half deer), and before long he's whisked away to another world, one from which (it is revealed) he came to begin with-though he has only deep memory to confirm this: language, and a vague sense of familiarity.

What develops from th More...

Book I of the Prophet series serves as a delightful introduction to the world of Panamindorah, a fantastic realm of fauns, talking beasts, and the occasional wizard.

Ms. Hilton's talent shines as she leads us on exciting adventures through a lushly-described More...

Anyone that likes high-fantasy should listen to The Prophet of Panamindorah. There are three books, all free. While the summary makes it sound like it's your typical "kid falls into a fantasy world" kinda of story, it ends up being more focused on the politics and events of a war between the races. Yet with a lot of action. Very well done, and a good original world. There is enough classical fantasy elements that people can understand, but enough new races and world rules that it's int

The ideas here are interesting and I was amazed by the level the author goes to in establishing waring creatures and societies with deep seeded hate and history. But this is also her down fall in my opinion. There are to many names to remember and I had to keep referring to the authors website to recall what shelts were what. The character list I found helpful but felt that is an issue I should not need to refer to a character list.
Then the end was horrible more like a chapter cliff hanger More...

I'm interested to see where this series goes, but I will say that there are entirely too many unanswered (yet obvious) questions at the end of this Act I. However, this is one of the better first-time-author books I've encountered and I've a sneaking suspicion it's going to keep getting better.

This solo read podio book is highly entertaining. I'm listening after first being introduced to the Guild of the Cowry Catchers. You should listen to this. Find it on podiobooks.com, itunes, or the authors website.
