Sam please read more books

What did you love best about The Fiery Trial?

I love all of Cassandra's books and the only reason I bought the auido book is because Sam was reading it.

What about Sam Heughan’s performance did you like?

Everything, he could read any of the over 1,000 books I own and I would buy the audio version.

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

yes

Any additional comments?

Sam, please read more books especially the outlander series, just wishing....

Complaint. It was way to short. Listening bliss.

Sam Heughan, if he read the phone book I would be all over it. I had many smiles happening as the authors clever story rang through with Sam's voice. I had to keep reminding myself I wasn't sitting around the hearth st Lallybroch listening to Jamie tell a story. Yum.

Sam Heughan Narrates

I knew I would buy this just because Sam was the narrator. I wasn't at all familiar with the author or her series and normally wouldn't have listened to this mini book.
However, despite sounding a tiny bit like Peter Lorre when reading the American voices, Sam's performance was great. In spite of myself I became interested in the actual story. Not sure that I would read any further but I can confidently say that if Sam is narrating, I would buy with pleasure.

Sam Sells!!

Any additional comments?

Put me in the same category as others....this series is not something I would read or listen to, but with Sam Heughan as narrator, had to have it! He is fantastic, of course!

May I have more Please?

I was competely drawn into the adventure of the boat ride and posiible drowning of clairie and Simone, only to be as surprised as Simone and Clairie that they were drugged. A good way to explain and show the meaning of the unions made at ShadowHunter Academy. Sam Heughan once again has astounded me. He can characterize with his voice as well as he does with his facial and body language. mesmerizing!!

Interesting, well-written novella

This story is a companion book to the "Mortal Instruments" young adult fantasy series, which I have not read. Although I missed a lot of the background on the characters I was able to follow the story and get a sense that the author is a very good writer.
Sam Hueghan does an excellent job as the narrator. I missed his Highland and Lowland Scots accent, but loved the additional accents I did not know he possessed.
This is not a genre that I usually follow, but I am intrigued enough to explore more of the books.
