Reseñas de la Crítica

“…[a] rich crossover urban fantasy.” ( Publishers Weekly)

“…a thoughtful and emotional look into the paranormal world.” ( Romantic Times)

I love the narrator! She’s probably my number one narrator. The story was too confusing for me.

I don’t know what to say about this book other than I simply thought it was too convoluted. I can’t even finish it that never happens with me.

🌻Complex world, to learn🌻

🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻V from Kansas🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

When a listener starts this book, they will need to be able to focus, as the author introduces her world. It’s an unique world that has types of characters that are a bit difficult to grasp, at first. Perhaps an introduction with the history of this society, at the beginning, could have made the events and types of characters easier to understand.

However, after I figured out what was happening, I did enjoy the story.

The narration was pretty good, although, adding a male narrator and duet narration could have made it outstanding.

Normally, this wouldn’t have been the type of book I would have chosen, however, since it was in the “included “ section, I thought I’d give it a try. I’m glad I did and glad I stuck with it during the world building. I’m moving on to book two,now.

Fantastical Demons

Good demons? I hadn’t considered such a thing. I enjoy the fantasy book that makes me think outside the box. Always enjoy the romance too.

I only tried the book because it was included in the audible package, but I will give the next book in the series a try, so that says a lot all by itself.

DNF

I decided to listen to this one because it had a time limit on it in Audible Included, but its just not holding my attention. I think if I was reading a hard copy it might be ok, but the narrator is far more suited to reading children's books than PNR. The way she portrays the MMC's dialogue is just... Ridiculous. Its over-the-top, which, considering that PNR genre is pretty much always over-the-top by nature, this is just way too much. I made it 3 chapters and I already am irritated by the MCs' dialogue. So I give up. On to the next escapist literature.

Good book

I liked both this book and the narrator. I agree that it does have a complex demon realm to get used to but I still think it's worth the credit. It also had enough romance to keep my interest.
