The Librarian Chronicles, Book 3

De: Christy Sloat

Narrado por: Allison Hart

As a lover of books, Adam Giordano was accustomed to getting lost in the beauty of the written word. But never quite so literally. Cracking open the pages of one unique hardcover transports him to Colonial America on the verge of war.

There, he meets a wild, Native American beauty by the name of Rose, whose life he fears is directly in the path of the brewing storm of battle. Enraptured by her, he struggles to find a way to save her from a history that may already be written.

Will Adam’s attempt at rescuing her prevent Rose from becoming the historical beacon she was meant to be?

Refreshing take on time travel

As someone who had not read or listened to the earlier Librarian Chronicles, I came into this volume with few preconceptions. The author admits that most of her earlier work was geared towards younger readers/listeners, and I think this rather simplified approach to storytelling is what kept me from loving it. I never felt that I got to know either Adam or Rose very well, and I never grew to love/care deeply about either one of them. That said, it was an interesting snapshot of Native American involvement in the American Revolution. I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook.

The voice of the narrator

Not enough inflection out animation in her voice as she reads. Great voice overs chasing characters. But… her narration definitely took my enjoyment away in the beginning. Into I got used to her voice.

Slow

I had a hard time following this. The narrating was annoying to me. Too soft and airy most of the time. Hard to keep my attention. The story was okay. I don't think it was nearly as good as the other before this. If I had read these out of order I would have been very lost. I highly suggest reading the other two prior to this one.

What happened to Piper Goodeve?

Couldn't get past Chapter 6. Voices were horrible. Either oddly stilted or just so wrong.

I loved the first 2 audiobooks and had high hopes for this one. I'll have to read a print copy once I get the memory of the voices out of my head.
