Exciting story, great narrator

I received a free copy of this audio book in exchange for an honest review. I really enjoyed the story. Iit was fast-paced with likeable characters and a really interesting storyline. I read along with the Kindle version of the book. The story is about an FBI agent investigating a murder in Central Park. There are supernatural twists in the story. The story flowed well. I did find the potential romance a little frustrating with the back and forth. But I was rooting for them. I hope there is a follow up book. .I read / listened to this straight through and stayed up way too late. I had to know how it turned out. I liked the narrator and thought he did a good job with both the male and female voices. The pacing and narration added to the overall enjoyment of the book.

Interesting take on the werewolf genre

What made the experience of listening to Shadow of the Moon the most enjoyable?

Not knowing where the story was really heading was definitely enjoyable and held my attention. The narrator was really great overall.

Which scene was your favorite?

I would have to say any scene with the niece was the best! Perhaps there is a story there??

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

There were frustrating moments and funny moments!

Any additional comments?

I would have given this story five stars but I had some issues with it. One was that they revealed some things in the end that had already been revealed. I blame that on editing. This story felt fresh, and I would recommend it!

Great narration for this romance/urban fantasy

While felt like more romance than urban fantasy, the focus on relationships wasn't limited to the romance. Other important relationships featured include mother and son, surrogate uncle and niece, friends who become like sisters, a neighbor who becomes a friend, a woman and her dog, and more.

Excellent narration. I love McSorley's range and rumble.

Good, creative story

Enjoyable story, subtitle says it all. Good protagonist. A female angle on a werewolf story for sure. I recommend it. Narrator was particularly good.

Didn’t want to stop listening!

I would recommend Shadow of the Moon to anyone who likes Crime/Fantasy books. Paul J. McSorley narration was excellent there was just one character’s narration I didn’t care for.

The story was great, fast paced and kept me hooked. I would of liked more character development but that would require the book to become a series (which would be amazing).
