Brilliant!

I found this story extremely interesting. I wasn't familiar with. the author Suza Kate's, I had never heard of her, or read/listened to anything this author has written until now. I saw this story on Audible and the cover was catchy, I knew I had to listen to it. I found this story to be written well. The majority of the characters are fun and I found it easy to connect with them. Suza created a story with a good plot, premise, and a wonderful storyline. She writes about good vs evil, along with some kick ass women. Suza Kate's has written a brilliant story and you definitely don't want to pass this series up. She gives each character a variety of personalities. She brings the story to life, as does The narrator. Trust me, the second book, Conviction of the Witch is even better.

Hollie Jackson did an amazing job! She blew me away with he performance of this story. She brings the characters to life. I love her take on the characters personalities and the way she distinguishes all the accents of the characters. I've listened to several stories that Hollie has narrated and just when I think I've found my favorite one, I listen to another story she narrates and my mind is changed on my favorite story she's narrated. She's a very gifted narrator and if you don't believe me then just listen to one of her stories she's narrated. She truly does bring this story to life as if you're there seeing everything. Another great story narrated by Hollie Jackson. I highly recommend you give this story a listen, I guarantee you'll love it as much as I have.

excellent

this was an excellent book & I really enjoyed listening to it while I walk

wonderful book

love it couldn't stop listening to it. Can't wait to start the next book. downloading it now.

Amazing Narrator

Hard book to get into because it's a bit slow, but dang if my ultimate favorite narrator "Hollie Jackson " pulls it together 👏

Good-could have been better!

Story sort of just ended. The reader didn't have much enthusiasm for the story. She sort of drug it out. Predictable,a good romance novel
more than a fantasy novel.

Kept waiting for something to happen...nope

I *really* wanted to like this book and read the series. However, I listened to over half the book, waiting for something to happen...it never really did. The characters gathered in a house, got some dresses, were all model beautiful, went to a bar, one character went on a date. Omg, I finally couldn't take it anymore and returned the book. There is no suspense or action; I don't know how the book got the ratings it has? What others said about the narrator is true--she did not alter the voices of the different characters, so it was difficult to distinguish who was talking. Other than that, the narrator was just fine.

NOT SO BRILLIANT DULL STORY AND TERRIBLE NARRATION

Really?!? Not sure how anyone thought this narration was brilliant. The reading voice was nice. But that is it. There are 9 witches in the coven, the main character Shauni can speak to animals and they can speak back, there is our hero, Dr. Black.
NOT ONE CHARACTER HAS A DIFFERENT VOICE FROM THE NARRATOR'S READING VOICE.

I am not kidding. A very disappointing listen. I was a bit shocked too, most narrators try and give characters voice distinctions, not this one. not one little bit.

As for the story, it was just okay, seemed a bit juvenile to me, if you took out the 2 sex scenes this could be YA book. There was not enough dialogue for me. The story line and plot had potential but just fell flat and boring.

I had to stop listening at 8% and just read this book due to the very poor narration. Sorry, Hollie Jackson, but you should either give your characters a voice or don't narrate.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS LISTEN. I don't really even recommend the story to be honest. There are so many books out there that are so much better. Save your credit for something worth listening to.

Unsophisticated writing, story might have promise

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

This writing style is not what appeals to me. This author explains. Instead of "sky an ocean of azure" we get "blue sky". Picture me wincing. The writing doesn't draw the reader in. It's unlikely I'll make it all the way through the narration. Today is my second attempt and . . . yeah, it's not making it. Strike two is the narration. You cannot tell from the narrator's voice who is talking. Women and men all sound exactly the same and the reading is definitely yawn-worthy. Ugh.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Hollie Jackson?

The writing isn't that great so there's not much for the narrator to work with but each person should have a unique personality and that doesn't come through. Whether that's equally the author and narrator's fault I'm not interested enough to examine.

Any additional comments?

This is probably a great book for a teenager or someone who likes more simple things. The writing just isn't sophisticated or complex enough to appeal to me.
