Wicked Wiccan Women!

I listened to #paybackisawitch by #RolandBercyJr on Audible early last week. The narrator did such a phenomenal job! The way he did the variation of voices so fluidly.

I've always loved stories driven by magic and this story did NOT disappoint. I enjoyed this book thoroughly. The payback spells were done extremely well. Roland Bercy Jr. has quite the imagination; his stories are all so unique and original.

Although I listened to this on Audible, I insisted on having the paperback in my physical collection, which I plan on "reading" again when it arrives.

Fun revenge horror!

I had a blast listening to this one! Bercy has crafted a highly entertaining story that flows really well! When I thought one thing was going to happen, he surprised me by doing something else a couple of times in this story. I look forward to checking out more of his work as he releases them!

Magical Horror

A fun and fast read the delves into interesting characters and magical mayhem! Accompanied by great narration and audio effects, this is an immersive experience that most any horror fan can enjoy!

entertaining listen

3.5 rating rounded up - I received a copy of this audio in exchange for an honest review.

The thing I liked most about this audio was the background sound. I think a lot of times it comes off cheesy sounding. I know a lot of old Stephen King audios literally drive me crazy with the tinny sounds that often compete with the narrator. Sound effects were executed well in this story and in a manner that made it seem more authentic.

I didn't feel as though the narrator had enough variance between his voices and the prose sections feel flat for me. I felt the voices should have more variance between characters. The accents were good enough and the listener can easily tell if it is a witch or boy talking but not which one. I wasn't impressed with him but he was adequate. I am really selective when it comes to narrators so if you aren't picky then take that with a grain of salt.

I loved the title and the concept of the story. It was a novella so it couldn't really have as much character development as I would have liked. I did like the beginning of the story and it grabbed my attention. The revenge was very descriptive and relatable to each character I even found myself rating the five from most to least enjoyable. I cannot quite pinpoint what but I felt the ending needed something. I even backed up and listened to it again. It just seemed abrupt. Maybe it is just again that I wanted more story of the witches and it being a novella was an impractical wish.

I never regurgitate the story because I feel like the reader/listener should have already read the synopsis. Overall, the story was entertaining, It was written well and flowed nicely. I think that I would have enjoyed it more had I read it instead of listening. I will try more from this author but I'll be reading rather than listening.

We are the weirdos, mister

Great witchy revenge tale. A fast paced and fun listen. RBJ always does a great job with his audible recordings!

Fantastic revenge tale

This was so good. I loved reading about our witches and their revenge on the men who wronged them. This is my favorite story of the author. It's dark and sickly satisfying.
