Publisher's Summary
Best-selling author Bernard Cornwell received national acclaim for the historical drama of his Civil War series, the Starbuck Chronicles, which includes Rebel, Copperhead, and Battle Flag. Now, in Stonehenge, he creates a dramatic saga of one of greatest wonders of the ancient world.
Four thousand years ago, three brothers grow up in a land that is now Britain. One becomes a warrior, ruthless in his pursuit of gold and power. One is a mystic who sees visions of the future and hears the gods speak to him. Between them stands Sagan, the gentle brother who will dedicate his life to building a temple he hopes will bring health and peace to the land. As the giant stones are moved into their sacred pattern, Bernard Cornwell draws the listener into the conflicts of brother against brother, men against gods. Narrator George Guidall’s performance brings forth a world filled with the sights and sounds of bronze-age life.

If you like Ken Follett you will love this.
Overall, it's a solid engaging book. I felt like I was back in the stoneage. I was captivated by the madness of creating such a marvel in times were live was so lean. Lots of twists and turns, good battle scenes. Witchcraft, sorcery and prophecy in plenty. The narrator is the same one how did Don Quixote so that took me a little while to get over but once I did I realized what a fantastic job he did. Right now this book is on the included list and you will not regret listening to it. cheers, Jesse!

A Total Diappointment.
Any additional comments?
Save yourself the credit and the time. Not what I would expect from Bernard Cornwell. It is poorly written with an amateurish storyline. George Guidall, whom I normally really enjoy, fell short on accents and women's voices.

Great Story
Another great example of historical fiction. Explains how Stonehenge could have happened in the context of society at that time.

Enthralling!
I have never read historical fiction based in a time so long ago. This story, based on one of the most fascinating prehistoric landmarks in Europe, had me captivated from the start. I have always enjoyed the storytelling of Bernard Cornwell, and this one meant all my expectations. George Guidall’s narration was superb. I hope to hear more from him in the future. I highly recommend!

first Cornwell book I haven't liked
I've tried to make my way thru this book but I just can't do it. I am more than 8 hours in and it's just not worth it. I've loved every Cornwell book I've read or listened to (gallows their, king Arthur ones, grail quest, etc and would give them nothing but 5/5s. Stonehenge kind of reminds me of when you have a paper due and just power thru it to hand something in and happy to get a "C".

Couldn't finish
I had to stop about 10 hours before the end. Someone call me and let me know if there is a happy ending.

I am a huge Bernard Cronwell fan but this one was not one of my favorites
I think I’m just a little more used to historically correct fiction coming from this author. In this example, we have preponderance of fiction laced in with the mythological. I was hoping to learn more about Stonehenge. However, I think Stonehenge is a mystery to everyone.

Not what I was expecting.
This was an interesting tale, but you can tell it was one of his older works.
