Introductions

The Academy: The Ghost Bird, Book 1

De: C. L. Stone

Narrado por: Natalie Eaton

From USA Today best-selling author CL Stone, listen to Introductions, the first book in The Academy Ghost Bird Series.

With an agoraphobic mother and a barely-there father, Sang abhors the isolation keeping her in the shadows. The only thing Sang craves is a fresh start and to be accepted as ordinary by her peers, because for her being different meant being cast out alone. When her family moves to a new school district, Sang infiltrates a group of boys nearly perfect in every way. Grateful for an influence outside of her parents' negativity, she quickly bonds with the boys, hoping to blend in and learn from them what it means to have a natural relationship with friends. Only the boys have secrets of their own and they'll do anything to keep her safe from the knowledge of the mysterious Academy that they've sworn allegiance to. Bit by bit, Sang discovers that her friends are far from the normalcy she expected. Will her loyalty change when she's forced to remain in the dark, or will she accept that she's traded one house of secrets for another? Meet Kota, Victor, Silas, Nathan, Gabriel, Luke, and North in a story about differences and loyalty, truth and mystery, friendships, and heart-throbbing intimacy. The Academy, ever vigilant.

Loved it!

Loved the way in which the characters were introduced and described. It flowed smoothly and kept me interested the whole time.

Got me hooked!

The Ghost Bird series is one of my favorites to reread! Introductions is the first book and I love how the book slowly introduces you to each of the guys Sang becomes friends with. Being that Sang has had such a difficult childhood she is hesitant in every interaction she has with others. As she slowly becomes friends with the guys she has to deal with avoiding her parents, starting a new school, and navigating her first time having friends. 💖💖💖

So good!

This series is excellent. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys romance and interesting characters. The narration is excellent also.

love this series

I read the eBook and then went to Amazon to buy it. great narrator.

Lovely

This book was a lot of fun. I would definitely recommend for anyone that wants a little mystery and a little teen drama. I really enjoyed this narrator but it would be neat if there was a male narrator to read the boys voices. Throughout the book the boys all started to sound alike and had the same accents which sometimes made it confusing. Otherwise, a lovely read!

Fantastic characters, gives you all the feels

I reread this series (up to current release) at least once a year. books that can be read over and over and still be truly enjoyed... awesome.

speaking of awesome narrator Natalie Eaton has range... I can pick out each boy in conversation. she's so talented

A whole new perspective on Audible

Hearing this book narrated was amazing. The way she has a unique voice and personality for every character was breathtaking. Brought to life in my mind in a whole new way.

Perfection!

This books reminded me that their are still good guys out there. If the other books are anything like this one, then I will be a fan for life!
Natalie Eaton did an amazing job at making each character's voice differentiate. She did an fantastic job with the boys voices. Quite impressive.
C.L. Stone never fails at providing flawless writing that will keep you at the edge of your seat craving more and more. The individual relationships that Sang has with each of the boys is so unique. Her tenderness is so sweet. I cannot wait to begin the next book!

intriguing

what an intriguing new series. I really liked the emotion that the voice actress portrays. the only issue I had was the accent for Silas Korba. I cant wait to hear more.
