Publisher's summary

To save the lives of her friends, Rachel did the unthinkable: she willingly trafficked in forbidden demon magic. And now her sins are coming home to haunt her.

As Rachel searches for the truth behind a terrifying murder, an even greater menace threatens, for the demon Algaliarept will stop at nothing to claim her, and the discovery of a shocking family secret throws Rachel's entire life into question. If she is ever to live free, Rachel must first walk willingly into the demonic ever-after in search of long-lost ancient knowledge.

But when you dance with demons, you lay your soul on the line...and there are some lines that should never be crossed.

Narration lacking

Mentally corrected narrator throughout listening. Glad to know this is the only book she reads.

speaker not right

What did you love best about The Outlaw Demon Wails?

Story is great. Why did they change the reader? Margruite does so much better.

Would you be willing to try another one of Gigi Bermingham’s performances?

no way....at least not for a substitute for someone else

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

no

narrator Gigi Bermingham is awful

Ive learned my lesson. I will read the review's first. the story is great but the narrator.... She took a lot away from the experience. constantly mispronouncing the characters names. it really grated on my nerves. If I had realized it i would have read the book instead

Different narrator

Having a different narrator who uses different pronunciation really threw me off. I prefer Mrs Gavin.

Narration

Really like this narrator a lot! Story seemed more smooth but some names not pronounced the same which is annoying.

Narrator error

If you could sum up The Outlaw Demon Wails in three words, what would they be?

Get regular narrator back

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

The writing is excellent as always, so good it makes it possible to listen to the horrid narration of the book

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Gigi Bermingham?

If they could pronounce the words properly yes

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The only extreme reaction was to the narrator. I'm sure Gigi does well with other books but The Hollows is an established series with loyalty to the regular narrator. If Gigi had pronounced names and words properly for the series I'm sure she would have received better critique

good but narrator issues

the story as always is great. it keeps my attention throughout the whole time. my only problem is with the narrator. she's not as good as the normal one and the voices jump and mix match at points. she does her best and is decent but I prefer the one that Did it till this point.

Why switch narrators??

I don’t know why they changed narrators for this book in the series. It’s difficult to adjust to the way she decided to voice the characters. What bothered me the most was the way she mispronounced several words or characters: Ley lines, Piscary, Takata, some of Jenk’s kids names, Al’s full name, and Beta fish (bettah?? Really?!) Do they not have an editor to correct these mistakes?? Other than that, I loved the story.

New Narrator clouds a great series

Would you consider the audio edition of The Outlaw Demon Wails to be better than the print version?

I would recommend the print version only because this new narrator hasn't listened to previous versions to be consistent with timing, accents, and how some names are pronounced. First lesson in taking over narration in the middle of a series, do your homework on previous versions! Should be a condition the author makes when writing up the contract.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Gigi Bermingham?

I would like to have Ms. Gavin back because I'm used to her style. I'm sure if Ms. Bermingham had started the series in the beginning I would be used to her, but the differences between the two ladies are too great to easily push past.
