Who is Adrian Southin?

Grombrindal, the White Dwarf of the title, belongs to the kind of fantasy that draws on legend and long memory, and Adrian Southin’s book takes that figure as its subject across eleven and a half hours.

We can tell you nothing dependable about the author beyond this, and would rather leave a gap than fill it badly. The work places Southin in heroic fantasy with a strong flavour of saga: a named legend, a long form, and a shelving that reaches across fantasy, literature and science fiction as our catalogue reads it.

Richard Reed narrates, and eleven hours and thirty-four minutes of legend-telling asks for exactly that kind of steady, unhurried voice. Fantasy built on lore rewards a reader who lets names and places land rather than racing past them.

Listener ratings have not yet gathered, so the field is open and early listeners will set the tone. If sagas of an old warrior appeal, this is the one to try. Sample it from the audiobooks shown below.
