Loved it

Any additional comments?

Great narration. I like to list this first as it can make or break a story.

Loved this story. Easy listerning and very entertaining. Will be impatiently waiting for any new books in audio from this author.

I really enjoy it when readers with similar reading interests list their favourite authors and series. It really helps me find new authors too follow. Mine are Charlaine Harris, Jeaniene Frost, Jennifer Estep, Faith Hunter, Molly Harper, Ilona Andrews, Kresley Cole, Deborah Harkness, Nalini Singh, Coreene Callahan and Sherrilyn Kenyon.

Happy Reading

Too many shifting characters!

Great story, but at one point I was sooo confused. Many new characters introduced (all who shift and exotic names) that it just got really lost. All does come together at the end, and things clear up. I was just annoyed at some points. But, I love this series.

good book

If you could sum up Mercy Blade in three words, what would they be?

Exciting cajun fun.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

New orlean setting really is nice. The characters are well introduced, and really crazy feeling in the book.

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

Her southern accent really makes the story.

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

No

Big cat- keeps getting better

I wasn't sure after listening to the first book in the Jane Yellowrock series but I like to give new to me authors a chance and I'm so glad I did.
By this the 3rd book the characters now feel like old friends and I'm loving the way we learn a bit more about all the main characters with each instalment.
I think the narrater does an excellent job, really love her "beast".
