About this listen

AD1399.

One small town in Northumberland. One castle contract. Two apothecaries. Civil war is brewing. Usurpation, rebellion, betrayal, even black magic; these are hard times for the English people. Harder yet for near-destitute apothecary, Harry-the-Cough. Fleeing persecution and trumped-up murder charges, Harry is hunted by the law, jovial cutthroats, confused outlaws and an assassin who cannot die. When a suspected witch with a chequered past and a girl with a chequered present risk life and limb to save him, he is too busy running for his life to question why. From the author of the popular New World series.

The Apothecaries is a very enjoyable story and a pleasant listen. Initially I did struggle a bit with the narrator and felt he was trying a bit too hard with the voices, so I decided to start again from the beginning as I had lost the plot a bit. This was good move as I got used to and was enjoying the characters and will be looking out for the next instalment.
