Publisher's summary

He has stolen her past, but MacKayla will never allow her sister's murderer to take her future. Yet even the uniquely gifted sidhe-seer is no match for the Lord Master, who has unleashed an insatiable sexual craving that consumes Mac's every thought - and thrusts her into the seductive realm of two very dangerous men, both of whom she desires but dares not trust.

As the enigmatic Jericho Barrons and the sensual Fae prince V'lane vie for her body and soul, as cryptic entries from her sister's diary mysteriously appear and the power of the Dark Book weaves its annihilating path through the city, Mac's greatest enemy delivers a final challenge....
It's an invitation Mac cannot refuse, one that sends her racing home to Georgia, where an even darker threat awaits. With her parents missing and the lives of her loved ones under siege, Mac is about to come face-to-face with a soul-shattering truth - about herself and her sister, about Jericho Barrons...and about the world she thought she knew.

LOVE THIS SERIES

I love this series so much I am sorry the next book will be the last. While Natalie Ross is a good narrator I hate the fact that they changed the narrator in the middle of the series, Joyce Bean was excellent she was MAC. I truly enjoyed her energy and her wonderful southern accent. Why didn't they have her and Phil G. together that would have been great. Ms. Ross had no southern accent and mispronounced the name Rowena repeatedly (about 200 times). When inconsistencies like this occur I wonder whether the audiobook producer listened to the previous books. I dislike Narrator changes in the middle of series but regardless I absolutely love these stories. I would just like to see it redone with Joyce Bean.

Ready for the 5th

This 4th installment in the Fever series overall was great. I loved Phil G. as Barrons and the other male voices, I had a tougher time with Natalie R and wish they would've used Joyce B with him instead as she is "Mac" to me and I loved her accent. Overall I don't think this book was quite as good as the others. I loved the first three quarters but found the last quarter to drag some and found my mind wandering some and wondering what the point was. The cliff hanger like usual is a little irritating. It still would have been as good if she had told us who it was (don't want to spoil if you haven't read). This overall is probably my favorite series I've ever read, even more then the Sookie books which are hard to beat. I'll have to relisten again before the 5th and final book comes out!

a little odd

While I am a huge Karen Marie Moning fan, her fever series is a bit odd. I don't mind that so much, but she is dragging it out so long that I have since lost interest. By the time you get to this book, your ready for it to be over, but wait, there's more. Really? Can't we just move on to another series already? While loosely connected to her Highlander series, this is far removed as it gets from those books. If your really into fantasy romance than you will probably like this series.
PS. love Phil Gigante.......he is to ears, what porn is to eyes.

Awful Sound Quality

While I will get over my disappointment that Joyce Bean isn't the voice of this book in the series, the audio quality is simply awful.

I've listened to each book in succession (on the same equipment) with little break between books, and the sound quality on this recording is not even close to that of books 1-3.

How disappointing overall, and especially given this is an AUDIO book site.

Awful narration

I have been looking forward to this book coming out for months now and this was such a disappointment. The accents of the voice actors are so badly done that I could not continue listening. Unlike the movie Chocolat there is no Johnny Depp eye-candy to distract from the travesty of the terrible "Irish" accents!

Resolution please

This series started off really strong for me, but books three and four don't feel like complete stories. I suspect they, and book five, were meant to be one complete novel that was chopped up - hence the meandering plotlines and episodic writing (AKA: filler).
By the end of book four Mac gains a little more information and some of her relationships have slightly altered, but that's it. There was no single quest she had where she ever drove the action or accomplished what she set out for. If there was, it was so inconsequential I didn't even note it.
Still fighting random fae. Still searching for the book. Still doesn't know who killed her sister. And I'm still waiting for her to actually achieve something besides new levels of badassery...I'll probably only read the fifth book if someone loans it to me.
So sad - I really wanted to stay supportive of this series. I just don't trust the author with any more of my time.

Writing still good, narrators MUCH better

I enjoyed the first three books on audiobook, but I will admit I was annoyed by the narrator. Mack was portrayed as just a little too whiny for me to love the audio book. But the writing was excellent, the plot twists were nice, the characters, intriguing. In the latest edition of Moning's Fever series, someone made the decision not only to change the female narrator, but to add a male narrator for the male voices. I was delightedly surprised. Suddenly, the characters took on new life. They were simply spell binding. While all of the books are good, this one stands out in my mind and I have to think at least part of that was the excellent narration. Bravo to Ms. Ross and Mr. Gigante and of course, bravo to Ms. Moning. Thank you for enjoyable "read."

Great series, upgraded narration

I do really enjoy this series, and this book is well-written and well-narrated. The addition of a male voice has really improved listening pleasure. My only complaint is that there is not yet a resolution to this story after 4 books. I feel cheated.

WowI

I have been reading this series since the first book came out. The books are well written, and the author manages to keep you hooked and hanging on after each book. This is #4, with one more left in the series-I can't wait!

Phil Gigante. Wow.

What did you like best about Dreamfever? What did you like least?

Best: Phil Gigante. Least: Bad Irish accents.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I'm not going to waste my time with a detailed review of Dreamfever. People who love this series will probably love this book too. My issues with Karen Marie Moning's writing can be found in my previous review of Darkfever.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

I have two points about the narration. First, Natalie Ross has one of the worst Irish accents I have ever heard. It sounds more Cockney (and a bad Cockney accent at that) than Irish. I cringed every time I heard her Irish accent. Every. Single. Time. Her take at Mac's accent was fine--less pronounced than the prior narrator in the series, but it was inoffensive. Phil Gigante though...WHOA. He could narrate a tax return and I'd pay to listen. Aural sex. Wow. Just wow.

Was Dreamfever worth the listening time?

If only for Phil Gigante's brief appearances.

Any additional comments?

I preferred Joyce Bean to Natalie Ross, but the addition of Phil Gigante makes up for just about everything else that bothered me about this book.
