Reseñas de la Crítica

"When it comes to delivering stories that grab you by the throat and don't let go, Singh is in a class by herself!" ( Romantic Times)

Best one yet!

This book, is full of turns and twists. It follows the authors typical format - however it is my favorite of the series thus far. Worth every second!

Sweet

Great read!
I love the way she tells each individual story and then bring them together in the next book

We like Dev. We like Dev a lot!

Wanted Dev to get his story so bad and it happened and I loved it. This story took us away from the changelings the most but they were still involved so that was good enough for me. Picked up more characters that I want to get their own books now and at this point it’s getting ridiculous lol. On to the next!

The most emotional yet

Wow! For a while there I had doubts about how Dev and Katya are going to achieve their HEA. I should have trusted in Nalini because the resolution was nothing short of amazing. I love this installment. I didn't think I would at the beginning, but I was totally engaged by the end. I cried. The Forgotten and The Ghost, the Council and the Arrows, the mated pairs, they all fascinated.

Great series.

Wonderful!

The world grows! Every book brings a new element to the world and the stories! It a gripping series I recommend to all.

Needs more stars!!

Best so far

I liked this one the best so far. There is definitely a few heart breaking moments that will bring tears to your eyes.

Great new characters with new possibilities

Excellent narration, the story introduces new characters and makes you care for them. Sexy as always and hard to put down. I love her work.

Not Standalone - Intelligent Romance - Formulaic

What did you love best about Blaze of Memory?

This novel delved into the background of the Psy world more than the others, and there were some eerie parellels to true history that make the story believable.

I like strong characters, who overcome traumas, and I am drawn to displays of raw compassion. Man's inhumanity to man is a common thread in this installment. There is significant brutality implied although it is not gruesome (more disturbing). This all is overcome by love, courage, and loyalty.

As in all of the books so far, love and physical passion are tied together. These guys all find enviable soulmates rather than cheap one-night stands.

What other book might you compare Blaze of Memory to and why?

"Hostage to Pleasure" (Psy-Changelings, Book 5)

The heroine of this book is tied to the heroine of the preceding installment. Both are scientific and clever women. This ties up a few loose ends from that novel.

All of these books build upon each other. They are repetitive in some ways. The stories are relatively predictable. That said, they are more intelligent than others in this genre. I HIGHLY recommend "Hostage to Pleasure." That had the most depth and contained more surprises than the rest.

Which scene was your favorite?

The guy introduces the half starved girl to an ice cream fruit smoothie. I craved smoothies for a week after. LOL

Honestly, that's what I remember most without giving anything away.

Two children work together to do something unique at the end. That's the most memorable part. Emotions run high, and it's somewhat unexpected. Anything more would be a spoiler. Sorry!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

See answer above...

Any additional comments?

This series is not rocket science. It isn't brainless "smut" either. There's a real plot in each novel, and all of the characters stick around to be woven in and out of various threads of narrative. I intend to read all of these. Listening to them back to back makes the adult scenes dull and repetitive - only one of them really did anything different. I suggest reading other books in between to keep it "fresh." I really like the back-story. None of the characters are irritating. They're all endearing and still unique. For what it is, I'm torn between 4 and 5 stars. These aren't classics, but they're worth the credits in my opinion. In fact, I've paid outright to see what happens next with some of them. Happy Listening!

so very good

One of my favorites in the series. this novel grips your heart. Singh really put soul in this.

Not bad, but Narrator Threw Me Off

Sometimes it's beneficial to skip reviews and go straight to download.

I took about a 4 month break with this series and picked up with this book. The story was good: adding yet another element to this world and strengthening the bonds between the Forgotten and the Changeling.

My only complaint was the pacing. I don't remember Angela Dawe pausing at odd moments. Like, when you know that there should just be a comma and not a period between phrases. Very odd and I couldn't sync with that. The pauses were so long that I thought we were about to go to a different chapter or segment of the story. Otherwise great book.
