Resumen del Editor

A month has passed since Oberon and Alessa defeated the Expedition forces sent against them by the Lordships. Their power has grown to the extent that the desert can provide. Ever frustrated by the level system of the world, he decides it's time to take a bigger piece of the pie. Marshaling his new forces, he heads into the continent. Mayhem is marching; may the gods have pity on anyone standing in his way.

Feel bad for the author, VA killing the series

i paid for this and I'm going to finish it. I've never returned a book before and I'll not start now.
in short.
mispronounciations and little to no change in characters voices make it very very hard to listen to.
i genuinely feel bad for the author because this started as such an excellent series and i was about to pre-order the next book as i simply couldn't wait but seeing that it's the same VA as this book there's no way.
i hope there was a good reason for changing narrators because of it was simply to save money on production then that decision will certainly have the opposite effect.

i could forgive a bad narrator and often do but for the love of reading and stories take 5 min of your time and listen to a portion of the previous book or books, or would've taken all of 30 seconds or less to learn how to say the MC name. such lackluster effort made that i simply can't feel bad for speaking negatively of the narrator. if they had at least made the minimum effort.

if you've read this whole review and are determined to finish the book as i am then all i can advise is to lower the bass, turn up the treble and grit your teeth. 😓

I enjoy the series, but...

I enjoy this series, but it really throws me off when the Oberon's name comes up. The voice actor never says it right. Also the range of voices for the characters is, well, kinda lacking. Other than that, great story.

I enjoy the book

I enjoyed the book it was well written as usual of Matthew peed the narrative change was a bit jarring I guess but it was fine

different narrator

like the book and the narrator is understandable but her voice isn't as clear and doesn't drawn me in as good as the first 2 in the series

the story is great but narration is terrible

re listening to the story since the new book is out. forgot I couldn't finish the 3rd book due to the absolutely terrible narration. every character sounds the same and the old voice just screams "ignor me" to me was very disappointed when I checked to see if it's the same reader as this book kinda thinking about returning the newest book now

Fairly good

I already read the book, so I knew what to expect.
I like the story. I'll keep getting them. my only complaint about the story is being "evil" for the sake of being evil. The MC should make a decision based purely off the fact that it's not good. Mr Peed might cover it in future stories, but I feel like this path will cause issues with the story down the road. i.e. what will the vampires eat when they kill all living.
The narration isn't bad, I just wish they would have stuck with the same narrator. The narrator uses the same voice for the male world litch, the ancient loli vampire, and the teen new vampire. Also, when I read it, I read O-ber-on. or some variation of that. Not O-bree-on.

good story, narrator need work

the narrator needs a lot more practice. the lack of feeling in the narrator voice works well with the litch. But loses it when speaking for others.

Still a great story wish they kept the old narrator

The story is still pretty good a setting things up for the next big thing to happen. It doesn’t have nearly as many big moment like the last book but that’s ok it’s sorta a break in between without slogging down the story. However the one drawback to this book is the obvious change in narration from the previous two books. This narrator tends to read into other characters lines and it’s hard to tell sometimes who is talking and doesn’t make much distinctions in the characters voices like in the previous books. However in later chapters towards the ends it seems she either picked up on this or was told to try and do so. Cause it does seem like she is trying to do. All in all great story.

I was actually enjoying the series till the changed the narrator

I was actually enjoying the series until they changed the narrator. Seriously they already 2 books with a great narrator

Not bad

The new voice actor has a good voice but it was hard to figure out who was talking sometimes due to the fact that everyone sounds very similar if not the same.
