No.

Don't miss The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, soon to be a major motion picture, in theaters August 2013. Danger intensifies for the Shadowhunters as the New York Times best-selling Infernal Devices trilogy comes to a close. If the only way to save the world was to destroy what you loved most, would you do it? The clock is ticking. Everyone must choose. Passion. Power. Secrets. Enchantment. Danger closes in around the Shadowhunters in the final installment of the best-selling Infernal Devices trilogy.

Where does The Clockwork Princess rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Cassandra is a genius. I love it the way she wrote the serie, and put elements from Mortal Instruments.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Clockwork Princess?

All book is great, but I think the epilogue has something more.

What about Daniel Sharman’s performance did you like?

Yes, his voice is different from all I heard until now.

Any additional comments?

There isn't word to describe the good job that Cassandra did. The final is great, the story is wonderful, the series is perfect. All three books has elements that complete the other and makes some light reference to M.I.
I can say I'm fan from Cassandra Clare's work. Everbody should know her book.

She could save the world - or destroy it. Sixteen-year-old Evangeline 'Evie' Greene leads a charmed life, until she begins experiencing horrifying hallucinations. When an apocalyptic event decimates her Louisiana hometown, Evie realizes her hallucinations were actually visions of the future - and they're still happening. Fighting for her life and desperate for answers, she must turn to her wrong-side-of-the-bayou classmate: Jack Deveaux. But she can't do either alone.

Would you try another book from Kresley Cole and/or Emma Galvin and Keith Nobbs ?

Yes, because the author wrote a good story. I just hope for something more... The story get good only on the last chapter... Until that is a little boring.

Has Poison Princess turned you off from other books in this genre?

No.

What aspect of Emma Galvin and Keith Nobbs ’s performance would you have changed?

Nothing. I've heard other book read by Emma, and I like the way she works. About Keith, this was the first time, and I think is ok.

What character would you cut from Poison Princess?

Any one. There are fews character, and if I cut someone, how will be the story??

Any additional comments?

The book is good. A little boring in the begin, getting very good only in the last chapter. However, I think worth listening it if you have some extra credit, because on the end you understand (at least, I understood only on the final) the title "Poison Princess", and get expecting what will happen in the next book with the five characters the rest. Who will kill who? Why nobody attack until know? How much the others knows the true and all the rules?

One night Kylie Galen finds herself at the wrong party, with the wrong people, and it changes her life forever. Her mother ships her off to Shadow Falls - a camp for troubled teens, and within hours of arriving, it becomes painfully clear that her fellow campers aren’t just "troubled". Here at Shadow Falls, vampires, werewolves, shapshifters, witches and fairies train side by side - learning to harness their powers, control their magic, and live in the normal world. Kylie’s never felt normal, but surely she doesn’t belong here with a bunch of paranormal freaks either. Or does she?

Where does Born at Midnight rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I probably ranked as a book to read again someday, or maybe a book to be recommended to a friend.

What did you like best about this story?

At first I was a little skeptical about the book, I thought "another book with young supernatural" but to read the review I thought it was worth giving a vote of confidence, and I do not regret. The story is intriguing. You're stuck at the end

Which scene was your favorite?

No one in particular.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

No.

Two days before the start of her junior year, 17-year-old Janelle Tenner is hit by a pickup truck and killed - as in blinding light, scenes of her life flashing before her, and then nothing. Except the next thing she knows, she's opening her eyes to find Ben Michaels, a loner from her high school whom Janelle has never talked to, leaning over her. And even though it isn't possible, she knows - with every fiber of her being - that Ben has somehow brought her back to life.

The book is good. Has a good story and make you wish a second part. Book I think is good for teens, or someone who is looking just for a distration. Isn't so amazing as I thought, but is not bad at all. Is different.

In a time long forgotten, a preternatural event threw the seasons off balance. In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. As the cold returns, sinister forces are massing beyond the protective wall of the kingdom of Winterfell. To the south, the king's powers are failing, with his most trusted advisor mysteriously dead and enemies emerging from the throne's shadow.

Would you consider the audio edition of A Game of Thrones to be better than the print version?

I think each edition has his good and bad points. I enjoyed a lot heard this first book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of A Game of Thrones?

There is so many... but I think the way the author put together the many facts on the power game is unbeliable. And the book leads you to so differents lands, but the power and the corruption are all the same.

Have you listened to any of Roy Dotrice’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, this was the first time.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

No.

Any additional comments?

The book is wonderful. The story has plenty of intrigue, corruption and a lot of concepts that leave you shocked at first, such as the murder of babies. But then you begin to understand the world in which these characters are, and begin to see with new eyes the ways in which the characters are involved in intrigues. The concept of women being mere objects, and boys inheriting swords, titles and a war is incredibly engaging. Not to mention that, although the Stark family being in the middle of the whole story, in my view they are not the starting point. Each character has some involvement with everything that happens in the story. There's no way to explain this book. You have to hear it, and live every moment.

I loved the way Cassandra Clare wrote the story. The way each character dives into a personal quest while fight collectively to save Jace and everything.

What other book might you compare City of Lost Souls to and why?

Which character – as performed by Molly C. Quinn – was your favorite?

Anyone.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No, but If I could, I'd like have a little talk with Sebastian (or Jonathan). He could be very gracious and boring on the same time. Would be interesting talk with Magnus too. He always make me laugh.

This series is amazing.
