"Great story, okay performance"
Really awesome storyline.
Nealan of Queenscove will always be my favorite. I love the relationship he has with Kel, where they have each other's backs no matter what.
This is the one thing I didn't like. Yes, Bernadette Dunne did a good job differentiating the characters from one another. However, I didn't enjoy the voice she used for Kel. It was kind of nasally and I didn't think it would be the kind of voice that a girl between the ages of 14 and 18 would have. That could just be a personal preference.
Yes, but unfortunately I couldn't. As with any audiobook, it was simply too long.
It's a really good story, with a really strong female protagonist. I highly recommend it.
