"Highly entertaining"
truly a nice and suttle way to bring the readers into the world and introduce them into lore that she later builds on into a facinating plot toward the later books in the series.
"Disappointed"
No! I thought it was about a woman traveling thru time but it really about a love affair stepped in nothing but low quality adjectives with repeative comments! Very disappointed. This is for a love starved and unrealistic person with a wild need to be entertained with dripple
quite repeating herself with descriptive words
no
"Cheesy Romance Novel"
If you like a predictable Harlequin romance, read it. Otherwise, don't bother. It follows the common theme found in all novels written in 45 minutes - the most beautiful virgin meets the well-hung handsome man and they spend the whole book not realizing the other one loves them.
"Wonderful"
This is a wonderful start to a great historical series. I am looking forward to the rest. Narrators voice for the men is chilling but the women's voices are a little irritating.
"delightful mix of historical fiction and magic"
This is a book for anyone who enjoyed The Outlander by Diana Gabaldon. I thought it was worth the credit.
"Good sex novel"
If all you ask of a novel is adjectives for physical attributes and explicit sex, this one is for you. The dialog is very minimal and I found myself wishing the author would get on with the story instead of redundantly emphasizing the beauty of the characters.
"Had trouble getting thru this book!"
I really had issues getting through this book. It was very predictable. Try reading Brenda Joyce's books instead, you won't be disapointed... gotta love the time travel.
"Alright, but not great"
This is my 1st KMM book. I guess I'm a reader who needs a little more character development, because I struggled to feel like I knew the two protagonists in this story at all. They just felt a little too shallow for me to really get behind and cheer for them. I understand other reviewers concerns about the narrator, too. Although I'm usually able to get past so-so narrations, this guy really struggled to keep his southern belle and celtic lassie voices separate, not to mention his unconvincing attempt to keep his Scots sounding Scottish (or does it count if it's at least somewhere in the British Isles?). However, I do think there might be potential for improvement, particularly as this series develops, so that's why I gave it two stars instead of one.
"Beyond the Highland Mist: Highlander, Book 1"
I loved this book and all the others that followed. You wont be disappointed by any of the Highlander series. I dispoisted that there are only 4 books in this collection. I really hope there will be more Highlander series soon.
"The first book I read from Karen Marie Moning"
This is a spellbinding book that makes me want to keep driving I listen to it on my way to work and back and I love the highlander I just wish there were still men like this in todays world. Phil Gigante is a great voice for all the characters and makes the story come to life. Thanks both to Karen Phil and Audible for making a lonley woman dream of a better life out there. I helps to take my mind off of the problems I face they take me to another time and place where women are cherished and treated like a woman should be treated. Not where they are taken for granted and used up and then discarded like last weeks garbage to make room for another.
