The Full Moon

Under the Moon, Book 1

By: David Neth

Narrated by: Nathan Weiland

Length: 6 hrs and 57 mins

Publisher's summary

Kathy and her sister, Samantha, have always been a team. Throughout their time as witches, they've taken out more than their share of bad guys. But after Kathy meets Will, who she learns is a demonic Dark Knight, her loyalties begin to change.

Meanwhile, Samantha doesn't trust Will or his intentions. Still, Kathy can't help but feel tempted by the dark side as she falls deeper in love with Will. Crossing over would give Kathy the freedom to do whatever she wanted with her magic. No rules. No limitations. It would also mean breaking the bond she has always shared with her sister, who has made it clear that she wants nothing to do with the dark side.

When Will proposes they take over the underworld, Kathy loves the idea of having power. But it also leaves her with a choice that will change her life: abandon her family and the life she has always known, or give up the love of her life forever.

Great new series

This story is unique to itself. I love the plot and how it's so different. The narrator does a great job.


I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review

The full moon

I found this story to be interesting. I enjoyed reading this paranormal love/hate story. I might look up some more books by this author.

How do you pick between your huband or your family

Would you consider the audio edition of The Full Moon to be better than the print version?

(SPOILERS IN THIS REVIEW)
I have yet to read The Full Moon in print so I'm not sure if audio was better than print.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Full Moon?

The most memorable moment of The Full Moon were when the sisters were fighting.
Spoiler next ****************and when Samantha met her end.

What does Nathan Weiland bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Nathan brought his voice to his characters whether changing the way he spoke for certain characters or just his regular voice to bring the listener in to the story to picture what was going on.

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

A few times it made me cry when especially when....spoiler************************************** Samantha died, and how the boys and her sister felt after.

Any additional comments?

I'm definitely needing to get my hands on book 1!

Good story

I enjoy any story that includes magic and this story has a rather good plot to it, I cannot wait to dive into the next one.

Thrilling story, memorable characters.

Would you listen to The Full Moon again? Why?

I would definitely listen to this story again. Probably because the storyline is intriguing and far different from what I am used to reading (hearing).

What other book might you compare The Full Moon to and why?

I cannot compare this book to much of any other, because I do not normally read (hear) books like this. But a good comparison, I think, would be the Watcher series by Lisa Voisin. The fight between good and evil.

What does Nathan Weiland bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I haven't read the book, only listened to the audio version. I think Weiland has a way of making some of the characters fairly real.

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

My heart nearly broke into a million pieces when the sisters fought. Had I been in that situation, I would have left the man who was making go to the dark side. A sister, someone you grow up with your entire life, should come before anyone else, especially when they have a gut feeling about the man you want to bring into your life.

Charmed, I'm sure.

Although I read or listen to a lot of fantasy books, this was the first book featuring witches and dark knights. I remember having watched a few sequels of 'Charmed' way back, and the book reminded me of that in a good way.
We have the fight of good vs evil, and poor Kathy and her sister Samantha are drawn into it without any of their doing.

Which side will win? It doesn't look good for the witches, cause Kathy suddenly shifts her loyalties, and in the end, she and her family pay a dire price for it.

The story was entertaining, and I like the language. I had to find that the subject isn't my preferred one, but the story was interesting enough to keep me listening to the end.

Nathan Weiland did a good job at narrating, so it was an easy listen.

just ok...

For characters like dark knight and powerful witches im looking for a much intense actions, conflicts and twist... Narrator is a bit fast but its ok specially on action parts, though i got distrcted sometimes on the screaming parts to accomodate the female character...

Not quite what I expected

Overall, this was a surprisingly good listen. I have not read anything from this author before and feel he has a lot of potential. The story line and characters are good, I was thrown for a bit with a male narrator (I didn't expect that with a female lead character...lol). I loved the tv series Charmed and this reminded me of Phoebe and Balthazar's relationship and the struggles they faced. "I was gifted a copy of this in exchange for an honest review"

Triggering but good

If you could sum up The Full Moon in three words, what would they be?

The story itself was good. The characters were real and relatable (at least to me and my experiences). Which is definitely not a thing I can say is a regular occurrence especially when it involves books that trigger me. I own both audio book and the kindle book and definitely enjoyed the reader for the audio book. And would definitely recommend picking this up in either or both formats.

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

Wanted to but couldn't

Any additional comments?

I received a review copy in exchange for a fair and honest review.

I had a lot of mixed feelings about this book. I DEFINITELY want to read more and see what happens further along to all of them. But I also kind of don't.

Samantha reminds me of all my friends and family during the time I was with my living nightmare and Kathy reminds me of me during that time. Only there was no witchcraft of any sort involved in it. Though there was cult like religion which could be seen as the same.

Not your usual witch story

It was interesting to see the interaction between the sisters. It was great enough book I have already started book 2. I got this audio book free from the author and this is my honest and voluntary review.
