Great Books

The first and the second are amazing. So not like every other book out there. The story line is different from all the others too.
Performance is outstanding. She did a excellent job!
I can't wait to listen to the third book now.

I loved it!

I loved it as much if not more than I loved Defy. Sara B. Larson can keep you captivated for hours with her story and writing skills. I was very impressed with the character growth and I absolutely cannot wait for the next book in this series!

Great! But... writing poor in spots

I have only listened to this book and the first book. I am liking it so far. It has strong and complex characters, twisting plot lines, and so much more. I really do like this series.

That being said, I have to admit that I get so annoyed with the writing of the thought process of the main character. She is constantly reminding herself that she is the King's guard, and she protects. This is great, but the author uses the same words, the same reasoning every time Alexa brings thinks about her job. Alexa seems to have to original thoughts when it comes to the guard, no further reasoning for what she does other than "it's what her purpose is." And she thinks about this A LOT. I have no problem with the character having this constantly on her mind, but sometimes it feels like every 5 pages or so I'm listening to the same internal monologue, literally copied and pasted. It drives me nuts. People don't think like that, and it completely takes me out of the world and magic the author has done such a great job to create thus far.

Anyways, I thought I would add another opinion. It is a really great book, but some flaws in the expression of the characters. (In my opinion.)

Great read

The narrator was superb and the story kept me engaged can't wait for the next book to come out. Thanks

LOVE THIS SERIES!

Love this book so much. I was addicted from the moment it started. I could not stop listening. Can't wait for the third.
