Reseñas de la Crítica

"The strength of Spear's writing lies in her ability to keep the reader emotionally in tune with the characters.... Spear's lush descriptions of the Amazon, and a few tantalizing loose ends, will leave readers hungry for more time in paradise." ( Booklist)

I loved the entire adventurous story from beginning to end.

You had the strong male alpha and a strong female captain. Many times the story falters because one or the other plays hard to get for too long. In this case, once it's discovered that Kat has changed; Connor does his all to protect his family and get them to safety. Which is back home to Texas.

Disappointing

I usually enjoy books by Terry Spear, however, not true for this one. To be fair, it may have a lot to do with the narration. The story has *huge* holes in logic and the dialogue comes across very awkward and oddly pedantic at times. Ms. Spear did a great job with research on the jungle and Jaguars so that's really nice, but the amount of details at times is distracting. The basic premise is interesting and it does entertain the listener. I'm just not going to buy more in the series.

Very Good

Well written and a unique viewing of shifters. Like character intro and narration. Looking forward to seeing where this series goes!

loved it

The narration was good and I loved the shape shifting angle, The story and the characters were well developed and held my interest until the end. I will be looking for more.

Andersons

Would you listen to Savage Hunger again? Why?

Yes. I really enjoyed it.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Kathleen McKnight because she was a human who knew nothing about jaguar shifters at the beginning of the story, so I was seeing them through her eyes and learning about them alongside her. She was a strong, courageous female lead, which I loved.

Which character – as performed by Mackenzie Cartwright – was your favorite?

Kathleen McKnight. Cartwright is a talented narrator who did all the voices well, but I prefer dual narration, where a woman reads the female parts and a man the male parts.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

If you loved Romancing the Stone, you'll love this jungle romantic suspense with a paranormal twist.

Any additional comments?

This was a very suspenseful read with lots of twists that kept me guessing. It hooked me from the opening scene.
