Resumen del Editor

Victor Morgan’s entire life has been in the limelight. Groomed by his fierce mother as a piano prodigy, intent on using him to build a legacy for the Morgan name.

But legacies require the utmost in care. Any little disaster can cause a mountain of problems.

After a 17th birthday party ends in catastrophe, a fight with his parents sends Victor out into the world for the first time on his own. With his Academy team and Sang by his side, it’s everything he’s wanted for years. It’s his time to get out from under his parents’ oppressive control and finally be himself.

But Victor is a local celebrity in the Charleston community. His name and face have been everywhere. His every move is noticed. When his actions lead to the risk of a very public exposure of himself and his team, including thwarting Sang’s chances at remaining a Ghost Bird, Victor realizes the life his mother built may jeopardize everything. The Morgan name may just be his downfall.

There may be no escape. The only way to save Sang and his team might be to give up what he really wants more than anything: to finally be the real Victor Morgan.

Chapter 13 is in the wrong place

The storyline is great as usual. I love this series.

They made a mistake when editing the audio however and Chapter 13 belongs earlier in the story during Victor’s birthday party. :)

It was good and bad...

Okay, first of all, I was really excited for Unsung Requiem, I even bought the whole ebook and audio version cuz I really love the whole story. But I invested in the audiobook more because Natalie Eaton was that good for me in the past 12 books. She really captured each character's voices!!

Now I'm kind of regretting using my credit for the audiobook version. Maybe I should've stick with the ebook. Why?

First, I don't know if it's really the same narrator but the voices were off. The narrator sounded like a broadcaster and was inconsistent with the voices of each character. I had to stick it in my mind that maybe they were all grown up a bit and got matured. Sang's voice was there but you'll really have to listen. Even Victor's voice is different. Near the end though, some voices were back.

Second, I don't know why but this books seems really different from the previous books. It didn't feel like it's part of the whole Ghostbird series. Nathan and Dr. Green's books was not like this at all. Maybe I just got used to Sang being the center of attention everytime. But I like that CL Stone is introducing Victor's life to her readers. This book just felt a little off to me.

Third, I don't know if you guys had the same issue but the audiobook I got has four chapters that was not in order (chapter 10-13). I had to check the ebook version.

I hope the next installment gets better. And the narrator too.

love this series! can't wait for another. so many great characters, romance, suspense and family drama.

Chapt 13 in wrong place

I really enjoyed the story other than the misplaced chapter. I found the narrator to be really annoying at the beginning but once she developed each characters voice she became a joy to listen to. The author is a bit repetitive and redundant at times. Since Sang always keeps her cell in her bra it doesn’t needs to be said each time she uses her phone. Readers aren’t stupid. This is the first of her books that I am listening to. I read all the prior books in this series as well as the books in the other Academy series. The books are beginning to lean into older YA and NA. I read similar books at age 10 but I wouldn’t recommend for all. Parents should listen and judge for themselves if their own child is mature enough.

Mixed up chapters

Love the books but chapter 13 is In The wrong place it should be a couple of chapters before lol

Great story, narration a little off

I am a huge fan or this series. Natalie does an amazing job bringing the characters to life. There was a decent time gap between this book and the last. It feels as though maybe she forgot how she made all the guys sound? Usually she's able to make all 9 guys sound different and recognizable. This time around I struggled to tell the difference between some of them. Silas accent wasn't present for half his lines either. Overall, she did an amazing job as usual. Just seemed to fall out of touch a tad with the cast.

It's still a great story and performed very well. You should definitely pick it up!

Messed up audio

The story itself was good but because it was out of order It's confused me quite a bit. It's been months and the chapter order still hasn't been fixed. Rearrange chapter 13 so it is in the correct order.
As for the voice actor please don't change up the voices. We are over 10 books in. Any voice change right now is confusing and not necessary. We fell in love with the original voices.
Other than that I enjoyed how Sang is finally coming out of her shell and the guys are giving her more room to breathe.

out of order

some of the chapters are out of order. and except for the first chapter the narration was good. But the first chapter seemed off in delivery and character voices

One of my favorite series

Chapter 13 is out of place but over all it’s an amazing book I love this series

Read Out of order

Chapter 13 Pietoso is out of order and should’ve come around earlier in chapters after Capriccios and before Emporte. Unfortunately the flow was off.

Hopefully someone can fix it
