Lord Devlin Monroe, Julian’s nephew, is enjoying an extraordinarily pleasant bachelor life until Miss Sophie Wilkie and her aunt, Miss Roxanne Radcliffe, appear in London society, and he suddenly finds himself wondering how he could have enjoyed midnight alone.

It was okay

This was not one of my favorite Catherine Coulter books. I just did not find the relationships between the four main characters that believable. Too many attempted kidnappings in one book to one character. Anne Flosnik, as usual, did a great job as narrator.

Really enjoyed the book

Where does Prince of Ravenscar rank among all the audiobooks you???ve listened to so far?

It was well written and had that spark of humor that Catherine Coulter has in all her historical novels.

What did you like best about this story?

It kept me guessing and interested in what was coming next.

Really Struggled to Keep Going

What did you like best about Prince of Ravenscar? What did you like least?

It wasn't a bad story once you got to the last 25% of the book. The first 75% of this book just drug on and on. To be honest, I can't believe that I stuck with it until the end. There were a couple times that I asked myself why I continued to listen to it. The end is good though...you just have to get there.

Would you recommend Prince of Ravenscar to your friends? Why or why not?

No. I only kept going until it finally got good because I didn't want to waste a credit.

Would you be willing to try another one of Anne Flosnik’s performances?

No. I really did not like this narrator. She made the female characters sound childish and whiny. It was hard to reconcile some of the voices with the fierce, sassy demeanor of the female characters.

Did Prince of Ravenscar inspire you to do anything?

No

Any additional comments?

I don't have anything against this author...this just wasn't for me. Long and drawn with a subpar narrator. Not a great combination.

Breath taking fun thriller

This is a fun historic romantic thriller. I love Catherine Coulter and she writes these books. You become transported into the story and you forget about everything around you. This book was so exciting even with though I had tons of stuff going I still was able to find time to read and it really helped relieve my stress.

Way too slow

while I enjoyed the first part, the second half became repetitive and thus boring. tried changing speed but they didn't help
