My Rating: 4.5 of 5.0





This is a beautiful and subtly written story told in the best traditions of an Old Norse tale. It is poetic and delicate and at the same time suspenseful and dramatic. There are dangers and discoveries, adventure and sadness as Tar follows her quest. Will the forces of good keep her safe from her enemies as she follows her destiny? Helen Sea has written the original music that flavours her sensuous storytelling in this wonderful and engaging story that will appeal to a teenage audience and listeners of all ages.

Reviews:
This short audio is delightful.  The Gift-Giver has gifted Tar with the skill and responsibility of collecting tears and comforting those who mourn. She must run far and fast to fulfill her calling. Tar’s feathered friend, Favnea, the Treasure Seeker, shows her a large crystalline tear.  At first she brushes it aside but then she realizes she must discover where the tear came from.  She travels far and faces danger. When she confirms the source of the tear, once again she sets off to learn the truth and the reason. As she struggles on her journey Tar does some soul searching and meets more than she expects. 

I wish I knew for certain but the specially created music background may be a wooden flute. It sounds like native music and it is beautiful and haunting.

When Tar can not see Ulver, the Wolf, says to Tar:
Audiobook Jukebox“Look harder. You do not see because you look with the wrong eyes. I am here. Adjust your seeing.”
