Rose Labyrinth - Hardcover

Born and educated in Sydney, Australia, Titania Hardie is the author of the international bestselling novel, The Rose Labyrinth, as well as a range of distinctive books on folklore, magic, and divination. She has first-class honors degrees in Psychology and English and was awarded the prestigious Chatterton scholarship for post-graduate study at Bristol University, where she completed her M.A. on the Romantic poets. Titania lives in Somerset with her husband and two daughters.

Author Titania Hardie is a third-generation witch who has written books on spells and folklore. In this story, her fixation on mysticism, religious symbolism, and revealed truths gets in the way of telling a well-plotted story with genuinely likable characters. Narrator Carolyn Seymour is a perfect choice to narrate this fancifully eccentric story because she does British accents perfectly and she's also mastered the nuances of regional American speech patterns. The first half of the story is well paced and suspenseful, and Seymour's beautifully modulated voice makes listening a pleasure. If Dan Brown's books weren't mystical enough for you, try this offering by Titania Hardie. D.L.G. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
