The Rise of the Hotel Dumort

By: Cassandra Clare, Maureen Johnson

Narrated by: Stephen Lunsford

A Simon & Schuster audiobook. Simon & Schuster has a great book for every listener.

The Vampire Hotel

Great background into the history of the infamous Hotel Dumort. It's a cool part of history, not the made up hotel, but the era in which this takes place.

Just painful

What did you like best about The Rise of the Hotel Dumort? What did you like least?

Well I can say what I liked the least was the narrator. Stephen Lunsford was just not Magnus for me. He was very flat.

Has The Rise of the Hotel Dumort turned you off from other books in this genre?

No

How could the performance have been better?

Put a little life into it. He was so flat and boring.

Finally, Bane just the way you like it.

Nice complete story with supporting characters who are whole, a beginning at the start, a tasty middle, and a hero's ending.

Of the Chronicles thus far, this shows Magnus as I know and love him.

Unbeliable

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, because this is the best book of all until now.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Rise of the Hotel Dumort?

Everything that happens at the end of the book, beginning when Magnus faced his friend, and the discovers what happened on the hotel, and everthing that follow after this.... I'd never imagined.

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

Nothing to say about it.

If you could rename The Rise of the Hotel Dumort, what would you call it?

I would say: "When the Hotel Dumont turns on Hotel Dumort"

Any additional comments?

No.
