Thunder Hunter

Viking Soul Series, Book 1

De: Rachel Medhurst

Narrado por: Ian Fisher

For Thor to live, Thunder Hunter must die.

A thousand years, that's how long I've been hunting the Fallen Ones that escaped Freya's field. One-hundred and ninety-five down, five to go. Just five disgusting evil spirits until I die and Thor's thunder will be returned to him. Nothing will stand in the way of me completing my mission, not even the woman who claims to be a descendant of Freya. I will kill the next Fallen One, no matter what.

I was hoping for more

(This is an unbiased review given in exchange for a free copy of the book)

The book started out great; Ian Fisher really brings a strong vocal talent, giving real life to the characters. I did find that (like most male narrators) his feminine voices can be a little off but that is to be expected. Overall I enjoyed the narration, good, not the best, also not the worst either.

The story on the other hand was....lacking. I appreciate all of the work that goes into making a story, fleshing out characters, greeting a plot and following thru with all of them to the inevitable conclusion...this story was just all over the place. The main character who fights Loki hundreds of years in the past is sent to live like a Highlander hunting down Nordic demons with no problems until he's on to the last few. I love historic retellings of viking warriors sacking towns and conquering the lands of ancient times, but you're going to tell me this guy lives thru centuries with time and societies advancing and progressing and still looks at every woman like they're another sexual conquest? I wouldn't think so.

Good read if you're looking for mindless action.

I will look forward to more from

Awesome Present Day Norse Mythology

I loved the mix of present day and Norse mythology. Everything that Trigger has gone through and how he just picks up and keeps moving even though he never asked for this is pretty awesome. I really enjoyed listening to Ian Fisher, Because while he used different accents and voices it was done really well and flowed naturally. After this I want to listen to/ read the rest of the Viking Soul series.

Wrong voices for main characters.

What did you like best about Thunder Hunter? What did you like least?

The story is enjoyable, though Triggers attitude was a bit annoying.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

Oh my where to start. The voices for Trigger and Chloe sounds like there from the slums of London. After 1000 years and being Viking raised, I don't believe he'd sound like that. Chloe is over 200 also raised somewhere else I don't remember where, well educated and so nope wouldn't sound like that.

Was Thunder Hunter worth the listening time?

When I got past the wrong voices for characters the narrator was fun to listen to.

Any additional comments?

There's a 5 second or so spot where it skips a little, dang I can't remember where.

the inner thoughts of the hero

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

he brought humor to the story, loved his accent but hard didn't think he changed his voice enough from character to character

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

too many

Really good paranormal romance and action

What made the experience of listening to Thunder Hunter the most enjoyable?

I loved the main character"Thunder Hunter" . He is so jaded and hardened by his situation that when the woman is thrust into his life he is outraged. Of course he overcomes and the two make a cool pair. Plenty of action and packed with great characters and good narration, I recommend it to any paranormal romance fan.
