Defiance

Courier's Daughter, Book 1

De: C. J. Redwine

Narrado por: Renée Chambliss

While the other girls in the walled city-state of Baalboden learn to sew and dance, Rachel Adams learns to track and hunt. While they bend like reeds to the will of their male protectors, she uses hers for sparring practice.

When Rachel's father fails to return from a courier mission and is declared dead, the city's brutal commander assigns Rachel a new protector: her father's apprentice, Logan - the boy she declared her love to and who turned her down two years before. Left with nothing but fierce belief in her father's survival, Rachel decides to escape and find him herself.

As Rachel and Logan battle their way through the wasteland, stalked by a monster that can't be killed and an army of assassins out for blood, they discover romance, heartbreak, and a truth that will incite a war decades in the making.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A well-paced, heart-wrenching tale of loyalty, courage and love set in a ravaged dystopian world and featuring convincing characters, potent prose and palpable emotion." ( RT Book Reviews)

Can't wait for more.

Love this series I've read all three book twice before the audio versions came out. So happy!

Great book

The 1st chapter starts off slow. Once the story really picks up speed it’s hard to put down. The character development takes off and has you wanting to continue the story.

Love the story - Hate narrator's male voice

Love the story but really struggling with narrator's Male voice.

Her female voice is fine but her male lead voice is the exact same as the female lead. Not only does that make it impossible to connect to the male lead but half the time I never know which one of the leads are speaking.

crazy frustrating.

also, only the first two books are on the romance package. The third and final book, you have to pay for separately.

Good Book, Bad Narrarator.

Would you try another book from C.J. Redwine and/or Renée Chambliss?

CJ Redwine yes but Renee Chambliss is very hard to listen to

Would you be willing to try another one of Renée Chambliss’s performances?

No I can't tell the difference between her male and female characters. All voices sound identical.

Good story, sleepy narration.

I enjoyed the characters, story, and unique world. I appreciated that there wasn't a bunch of bad language or things that would make me hesitant to recommend it to friends or teens. The narrator was oddly sleepy and boring for such an intense story. Her voice didn't seem to change at all between characters or emotions in the story. I will probably just read the others myself because that was annoying.

The narrators voice was awful.

I feel like if I read the book rather than listened, it would be better. I couldn't get past the narrators voice and the way she would say things.

narration wasn't ideal

I liked the story and liked the narrator's voice, but the reading was slow. It felt like during scenes of dire action and commands, the conversations were slow sounding, not quick as it should be in reality. There was no sense of urgency in the narration at any point.

Just OK

I listened to the first two books in this series and a few hours of the third book. I couldn't even finish it because I really just didn't care what happened. I very rarely start a series and not finish it because I usually HAVE to know how it ends, even if I don't love it. I literally couldn't even bring myself to do it in this case. The story was rather boring and I wasn't dying to know what happened. It's really just OK. Nothing spectacular.

amazing

I really loved it and will go on to read the next book. I love it

it was okay

The narrator didnt change the voices enough to differentiate between the characters. The story was ok. They kinda threw in some weird monster thing out of nowhere at the end i dont know what that was about.
