Tempted: House of Night Series, Book 6

I could not be believe my ears, they changed the Narrator yet again, only this time it is worse than Hunted Narrator Jenna Lamia (who sounded 11).
Cassandra Morris sounds like she is maybe 8 yrs old and her pronunciation of the author's terminology is dare I say childish.
Please I encourage everyone to write MacMillan Audio and the Author's and beg them to please, please go back to Edwina Wren.

The voice in this audio is awful!! sounds like a stuck up 12 years old brat... I had to stop listening to it.. Couldn't stand it!!
Love the series!! hate this audio!

I started listening to the series because my wife likes it and would put it on at bed time. I got interested in the story and have been following along. The series is a bit too "teen romance" for me, but the story isn't bad.

The narrators for the first five books were o.k. - not much skill in voice modulation or theatric presentation, but at least appropriate to the age of the main character - Zoey, a 17 year old girl.

The narrator for this book, however, is one of the worst I have had the misfortune of listening to. She sounds like she is 8 years old and has a high-pitched, nasal voice that reminds me of "Alvin and the Chipmunks". The narrator also mispronounces several words, and tends to increase the pitch of her voice when portraying other female characters - which makes this audio book truly painful to listen to.

Unless you enjoy the sound of finger nails scraping a chalkboard, you should save your ears and get the dead-tree version of the book.

I tried on several occasion to get through this book but my ears could not take the narrator. I listened to about 2.5 hours over three days in the hopes that over time I might adjust but not only is her reading bland and boring but her inflection at the end of almost EVERY sentence is so distracting that it's all I hear.
Even my fiance picked up on it within about a minute of listening. Normally if I don't like the reader I can adjust and eventually finish the book and or come around, but I have no intentions of even trying to get through the rest of this book. I also have no intentions of EVER purchasing or listening to anything else by Cassandra Morris and will be writing some feedback to Macmillan audio. Not just for continuing to switch readers (Books 1-3 were a different publishing company, but 4-7 are macmillan and there are 3 readers) but also for failing to do anything even resembled listening to the final product. Words with the same spelling but have different meanings when pronounced differently were inproperly read. (E.g. Bow - as in bow and arrow or to bow up one's chest). This lack of attention to detail AND terrible narration make this the first book audiobook (out of about 100) that I couldn't finish. Hopefully someone reads this prior to putting any $$$ in Macmillons pocket!!!

It's bad enough we had to have the voice of the story change once, but we got used to it and it still worked out. but this person is not narrating she's reading and the most frustrating part is, if I were to find out i'd be narrating a series that already had other narrators i would have listened to the other narrators! she's not even pronouncing the words or names the same! not doing the voices it's very dissapointing. This person also did the voice for the wicked series and it's the same complaint she's reading it, too monotone and no feeling but at least it had some continuinty.

Why did they kept changing the narrator if they can't change her into a better one? Seriously, I mean the story was ok, that the narration made it sound terrible! Just go read the book!

Um, a little disappointed in this one, but it sets up the rest of the series, hopefully. Wait for a sale or borrow from local library...

I must concur with the other reviews. The new narrator is awful. I couldn't make it through the first chapter. I know this audiobook is inexpensive, but it is a waste of money, as I now must buy the book. I love the house of night series and have waited months for this book to come out. What a disappointment!

After the huge mistake changing Edwina Wren to Jenna Lamia, this is too much to take. I'd rather take Jenna than this narrator. The first two made you feel like you were in the story, this one, is READING IT TO YOU.
My choice for narrator would be Edwina, if not bring back Jenna, at least you could tell when the characters changed with her.

I will buy the actual book to be able to enjoy it better.

OK, again I chime in with the rest of the reviews... THE NARRATOR IS AWFUL. She does sound like an 8 year old... the back ground sound is awful!
I am curious if the Cast duo would've picked this child to speak for their book? Also hearing a little girl cursing is like nails on a chalkboard.
just my thoughts.
