For teenagers only.

What would have made The Arcadia Falls Chronicles Omnibus better?

1. A warning that this book was intended for teenagers, so don't expect mature plot or dialogue.
2. A warning that this book is not standalone. You probably need to grow into this series and its characters by reading earlier related stories, otherwise the encapsulated history in the prologue, where the heroine lists an absurd number of paranormal abilities and relationships, seems really silly.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Not this series.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of the narrators?

The narration was the first thing that turned me off the book (but not the last). To be fair, had I expected to listen to a teen romance/adventure, then the annoying whiney teenage voice would probably be appropriate. However, as I had just finished a series read by Kristine Hvam, one of the great narrators, the narration here was particularly irksome - but I don't think even Ms Hvam could have saved this story.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Disappointment. I purchased this based on the story outline and the reviews. All of the reviews were extremely positive and consequently I feel I was completely misled by them.

Any additional comments?

I am returning this book without finishing the omnibus.

Good YA Alternative to twilight

To be clear I don't agree with twilight,vampires don't sparkle; that's faeries. This is a good alternative if you agree with my above statement. If you prefer actual plot compared to teen hormones you are in for double the treat!

Wow!

Loved this omnibus! So sorry it came to an end. There is so much left for this group of vampire hunters to do! Can’t wait for the next installment. The story was wonderful, the world building was flawless and the narrators were perfect! I recommend this highly!

Great series

A great series filled with characters you become invested in. Tons of action. The narrator was wonderful bringing the story to life. I look forward to more

Bravo! Very Enjoyable!

Paul Brion, Angela Clark and Andrew B. Wehrlan had a way of making the story pop. I enjoyed listening to each one narrate the story.
If your looking for a lot of action this is one of the best audios to listen too. Jennifer Malone Wright has written a fantastic story. Bravo!

Cannot get enough

I cannot get enough of this series. It is highly addictive and enthralling. Just when I think the author has written every possible twist and turn imaginable, she blows me away with a new shocking twist!

I have been enthralled with all things Jennifer Malone Wright all year. This author needs to be on your bookshelf.

excellent

I totally enjoyed reading this book. It’s well written and the characters were fantastic. I would suggest this book to my friends that like this sort of genera. this was an excellent book

One of my favorite worlds to escape to!

This is one of my favorite series! I have enjoyed reading it just as much as listening to it on audiobook! Many family members (including my teen daughters) fell in love with this world & the characters after hearing my praises of it. I love that they too found it so appealing. Getting to listen to it though, that has taken me on a whole new mini vacation to one of my very favorite worlds created! Jennifer Malone Wright has a talent of transporting us away to Arcadia Falls in all the vampire hunting awesomeness that it is. This series is full of diverse characters, loads of action, lasting bonds, thrilling adventure around the world, life changing choices, raw emotion, vampires, magic, & hunters galore.

Great quick read!

This was a great read on my hour commute to work. I'm glad it came as an omnibus because it was a quick read. It kept me interested and is filled with tons of action. I love how it picks up after The Vampire Hunters Daughter so we really get to grow with these characters.

it's ok

if you like dairy style books then you'll probably enjoy this series; it's just not really what I like.

It's the Vampire apocalypse

It's the Vampire apocalypse, there are baby vamps popping up all over and the hunters really have their work cut out trying to keep them under control.
I enjoyed this series more than Vampire Hunter's Daughter as the characters are now more developed. I really liked the change of perspective with Drew and Zander narrating the last 2 books and I was happy to see there are even more books in the series.
Most of the narration was good but the men sounded fairly dodgy narrated by the female narrator.
