"An amazing story."
Definitely. The story is meant for a younger audience but it was wonderful to listen to.
The characters and their personalities. They all had their quirks and the narrator did a wonderful job at bringing that out.
Everything!
"Wish Phil Gigante was here!"
No, I really really disliked how the narrator portrayed the male characters voices. Jericho Barrons is supposed to be this hot, strong, masculine man every woman fantasizes about...the fantasy died with Joyce Beans version of his voice. I'm still pushing forward because Phil Gigante is in the last two books.
So far Jericho Barrons, he's mysterious, strong, smart...what's not to love about him?
OMG It could have been a million times better with Phil Gigante doing the mail voices. I would purchase this audio book and listen all over again if Phil Gigante narrated the mens voices.
I started out listening to ICED and fell in love with Natale Ross and Phil Gigante. This narrator was a disappointment but knowing Natalie and Phil are narrating in the last couple and hopefully all future, books, I'm willing to listen to the story.
"Wish there was more to the ending."
Clever, fun, enjoyable.
The personalities he attached to the characters was great. I loved listening to this mans voice.
Yes, I couldn't wait to work out or drive long distance so I can get my listen in.
This was a great ending to the series. The end was a surprise to me there is part that just brought tears to my eyes and I wish it could have been different. And I wish there was just a little bit more in the end...a sort of "10 years later" kind of thing. You see all the characters in their final evolution in these books and you see the strength in the friendships and bonds. In general the book, even though it is fantasy, gives a great message about friendship and society. This series is on my top ten favorite books and the author is on my top 3.
"Worth it."
Yes, I think the narator did an excellent job of playing all the characters, the story is interesting and the characters in general kept the story alive.
Maybe to the golden compass, because of the threat of a power hungry, self righteous "authority" who wants to dominate the world.
Morbidly, I liked the scene when Haydrian and Royce reach the princess after they find out they were tricked. How Haydrian comforts the princess. You begin to realize that something is there even though they themselves are not aware of it yet.
The series in general is great. I've read some negative comments about the characters but in this set you start to understand them much more. You see them change, evolve and grow into real heroes...something they were not expecting of themselves.
"My favorite heros!"
I haven't read the book but the audio was wonderful.
It doesn't really compare to any other book I've read yet. This is a great adventure story which made me giggle, warmed my heart and at the same time made me root for professional thieves, of all things :)
I loved the different voices and how he brought forth the characters sense of humor. He did a brilliant job.
Most definitely yes!
I loved how the author focused on the adventure and even though every character was real and human in their own way he didn't write this book like others taking place in similar "times". There are many authors who, with the understood attempt of making their characters "realistic" to the period or situation, write hard moments and make many characters, especially men, into pigs. I like that this book is very "grown up" but it was tasteful when it came to "adult" situations. Can't wait to listen to the others!
"Dude, it was awesome."
The snarky remarks. Sometimes the characters down right made me laugh out loud.
Their voices and interpretations of the each characters personalities. I LOVED the narrators, they did an awesome job!
At first, you'll want to give up on this story. You'll question the author writing about a 14 yr old, hold on and keep listening. It makes sense and you'll not regret it!
"Ends with a bang."
Relieving, Engrossing, Awesome.
I liked that Bella and Edwards relationship became kind of normal after everything they went through.
It had to be the scene when everyone sees how powerful Bella really is. It was jaw dropping great.
"A teen love story."
Yes. It brought back memories of high school drama and love. Although, I try to understand that the author is trying to convey an eternal love story, it seems more like infatuation which borders on obsession. It's a decent story none the less.
The narrator did a wonderful job with all the characters.
No, it did not catch my attention that much to want to listen to the whole thing at once. I did look forward to listening to it on my drive to and from work and when I worked out but I've listened to books which have had me listening into the late hours of the night. Although this book didn't do that for me, I am planning on listening to the entire series. The quirkiness of some of the characters brings a smile to my face. They seem more real because of that.
