The Shifted

De: Natalie Carlisle

Narrado por: Tom Johnson

Kale Rollins’ life has become a living nightmare. As if it wasn’t awkward enough being an adopted normal kid in a family of purebred shape-shifters, he was now being transferred to a new school made solely for their kind. And it gets worse. He must attend this school under the pretense that he, too, is a shape-shifter in order to “babysit” his 14-year-old brother, who has suddenly shifted a year earlier than expected.

However, with the newfound knowledge that shape-shifting families are mysteriously disappearing, Kale wonders if attending Emerson Fox Academy is actually as safe as it seems. Before he even reaches the school, he finds himself in the middle of a feud that could become life-threatening to himself and his brother.

Unexpectedly friendships are formed as he chooses a side; so are enemies.

There is one girl though who makes him want to stay through it all. Except the closer he gets to Lavallette Waters, the harder it is to keep up his facade. As secrets start to unravel around him, Kale wonders what will happen next....

Will “babysitting” his brother be the death of him? Can he really trust Lavallette? And how much more time do they have before someone they care about disappears?

Cute story

I think this was a great book. I loved the characters and the school. It was a very tame story about shifters and werewolves. I was entertained until the end. I felt like this was a well written story. This story was full of teenage characters and their bonds of friendship and sibling rivalry. I very much enjoyed it. The audible narration was just okay. It didn't distract from the story at all, but it didn't add anything either. I would recommend this book to anyone over the age of 12. I'm well into my 30's and I liked it. It was great.

Different

The book is not what I expected but I liked it. It is different to other shifter books that I have read. I am looking forward to the next book, the author has me intrigued.
The narrator, I found, did not suit this audiobook. He sounded a lot older then the characters and I found he spoke slow, so I had to speed the audio up a bit.
There is some violence and profanity but no sexual content.
Can't wait for the next book.

Fish out of water

I really enjoy fish out of water novels, and so when you put a kid whos grown up with out too many other shape shifters and put him in a school full of them, the potential for weird interactions is just awesome.

Shape Shifter School

I really thought this was a great original shape shifter fantasy. No spoilers. I absolutely loved the story line, felt it was very well written, and was not at all predictable. I really had a hard time putting it down. My only complaint is I felt the narration fell short of the story. I could tell he was trying, but at times he sounded a bit drone like, and he tried using voices but would then forget to use them. There was some mild language in the story but that was it, so overall I'd say it's probably on a middle school age and up level.

Really good

I received a promotional copy from the narrator. I have voluntarily left this review.
This was such a good story. A big brother willing to do anything to protecting his brother. Kale is such a good guy, never truly fitting in only to find he is different, however being different can be a good thing. really really like a lot.
