Suddenly, Tod's future wasn't so sure, and he had to make a choice. Life... Death... or something Between....

Nice Backstory

But be aware that the narrator is different from the main books. Nash sounds like an idiot stoner and it put me off a bit.

Quick prequel

This is a quick little prequel to the Soul Screamers series. It focuses mainly around Tod, but there are flashes of background information about Nash as well. There's nothing here that's needed to continue on with the full-length novels -- you won't be missing any key information and left scratching your head later if you skip this -- but fans of the series will still be interested.

This was published between the third and fourth Soul Screamers novels and contains a tiny hint of set-up for the fourth book, but it could probably be read any time after the second. This story contains a slight spoiler that gives away a little bit of info from the second book, so I would recommend reading the first two books before this unless that wouldn't bother you.

This has a male narrator to reflect the temporary shift of the main character to Tod, and I thought he was good. But in the main novels, Tod's voice is all scratchy. In this, Tod's voice is normal and Nash's voice is the scratchy one!

Great backstory on Tod/Nash/Sabine!

I really enjoyed this story, we get to learn so so much about Tod, he is one of my favorite characters in this series. I was concerned that A. Ronconi was not narrating this book but pleasantly surprised by the reader. He did a fabulous job and I am very very picky and hard to please when it comes to audiobooks!

This is a MUST if you are reading the series.

Great story about Tod

After reading reviews, I added this story to my library and I am so glad I did. While I agree that the narrator's "Nash" voice is off-putting, the story line provides some great background information about Tod. I do think that one could listen to this story before any of the other books, but I think I would have enjoyed it even more before book 3 to understand Tod and Nash's relationship.

Reaper has a soul?

Who knew the Reaper was that sweet? He’s been a bit of a devil the whole time he’s appeared in previous novels. I think Love is on its way!

Disappointed

Short story about Tod. and how he became a Reaper. Was disappointed with the author in the quality of this short story. Could have had more character development, been longer and have more content about Tod’s transition. Felt family dynamics should have been touched on more after Tod’s death too. Would have liked to have had author write about when Tod approached Nash for the first time after he died. Storyline was lacking in several important areas.
Was not the usual narrator for this series (which I don’t like when they change mid series). Both Tod and Nash’s voice was very different. This narrator made you fall in love with Tod (a much sexier voice here where in other books from the other narrator had a raspy voice) but was very annoyed when he voiced Nash. I love the series but not this short story!

Loved it

This story gives you great insight on Tod (after reading all of the books before this). I love getting to know each character and how they've got to this point in their lives.

A Must Read

This short story about Todd. Oh my goodness where to start. I don't want to give any spoilers cause I know how much I hate when someone gives too much of a book then I already have a started opinion in the back of my mind. But I have to say after reading this short story I am saying eh to Nash and am leaning toward team Todd..😉

The POV of Todd

I really enjoyed the POV of Todd and getting a look at how he ended up a reaper. This story has made the character grow on me more and look forward to seeing where he ends up in the series.
