the reader is constantly sucking her mouth.

story is ok. but gosh her constant wet mouth sounds are horable!!! she has good voices but the almost constant sucking and licking sounds are rediculas.

Blow your nose.

I had to turn off this audiobook. The disgusting dry mouth cracking noise was like nails on a chalk board. Edit edit edit.

After reading this one I can't wait for more

Narrator kept swallowing

Would you be willing to try another one of Barbara Rosenblat’s performances?

no, she kept swallowing and i could hear the spit in her mouth. it was very distracting and it grossed me out.

Enjoyable continuation of story line

What did you love best about Love in the Time of Dragons?

This is a nice continuation of the original Dragon series from MacAlister, which I listened to years ago. At times it seemed to drag a bit, as though Katie were trying to regain her pacing, but overall the story was enjoyable.

What does Barbara Rosenblat bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Barbara is great at keeping the different characters distinct through voices, so we don't have to constantly hear who is talking through banal dialog additions. You start to relate to each voice as a separate person.

Any additional comments?

The story ended rather suddenly, A whole book leading up to a final world-changing battle that lasted just over 5 minutes left me wondering if I had missed something...

silence her lip smacking and swallowing!!!!

I couldn't stand how you could hear the narrator smack her lips every few seconds it drove me batty. by I love the story so much

Batic and Soldie

This book is great fun to read. The characters are very lovable and of course there is Jim .Jim the demon in dog form that is so endearing. Katie MacAlister did it again with her wicked humor.

narration

the narrator keeps smacking her lips. wnlhen you listen on head phones is very annoying.

Narrator Voice To Harsh & Soap Opera Ending....

If you could sum up Love in the Time of Dragons in three words, what would they be?

Though I enjoyed the book, I only gave it 3 stars overall. First, I was very distracted by the raspiness of the voice of the narrator. Like most, you want to visualize the characters. Since the author did not give a solid description of what Isold looked like, all I could imagine was an older woman (possibly in her late 40s) who had a severe smoking problem.

The tale itself had me pushing through and kept me hanging on to see What Next. It was great until the LET DOWN! What happened at the end? It just dropped. I understand when authors want to build to another story but this ending was much to abrupt. I was so disappointed and left feelign empty that I am unsure if I would listent to this author again. If I do, it would only be to satisfy my curiosity as to what happened.
