Resumen del Editor

How do you defy destiny?

Helen Hamilton has spent her entire 16 years trying to hide how different she is - no easy task on an island as small and sheltered as Nantucket. And it's getting harder. Nightmares of a desperate desert journey have Helen waking parched, only to find her sheets damaged by dirt and dust. At school she's haunted by hallucinations of three women weeping tears of blood... and when Helen first crosses paths with Lucas Delos, she has no way of knowing they're destined to play the leading roles in a tragedy the Fates insist on repeating throughout history.

As Helen unlocks the secrets of her ancestry, she realizes that some myths are more than just legend. But even demigod powers might not be enough to defy the forces that are both drawing her and Lucas together - and trying to tear them apart.

Well Done

I bought this in order to distract myself from a very Long road trip. The story is great, the narration is very good, and I enjoyed it the entire way:)

Kind of a roller coaster ride!!!

Where does Starcrossed rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I haven't heard that many audiobooks yet, but I thought this one overall pretty good.

What did you like best about this story?

The best thing about this story is definetly the ROMANCE!!! I really could feel their sexual tension. Some great stuff!!!!

Have you listened to any of Devon Sorvari’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Never heard anything from her before.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I thought some parts were funny n the couple were very romantic. But no crying. LOL

Any additional comments?

I thought this book was very similar to Fallen by Lauren Kate. So if u like romance with some story line this is the book for u.

I liked this so much more than I thought I would!

I was expecting this to be okay. Typical YA love story blah blah blah. But I ended up really invested in Helen and Lucas and all of the cousins.

I adored the mythology elements to it.

I loved that there wasn't an 'insta-love' (there was an insta-loathe but it somehow made more sense.

Although there are some 'schooly' elements to the book, they aren't the main focus. And the school isn't the main atmosphere.

I am very curious that the others aren't on Audible- I went to purchase the next one and it isn't there..... BOO

Good Storytelling/writing

I loved how the book was so connected and flued. I love that there is a mystery aspect through out the whole book, kind of like an unknown that we want to find out and the mystery keeps going leaving on a very mean cliff hanger. overall highly recommend if you like romance and mythology.

Beautiful and Amazing story

What made the experience of listening to Starcrossed the most enjoyable?

I loved all of it but the story telling by Devon was awesome! Her voices for all the characters weren't over the top and transitioned perfectly.

What did you like best about this story?

All of it!

Which scene was your favorite?

Um, I don't want to give anything away but when they save each others lives.

Any additional comments?

Loved this book and I think everyone will enjoy it!

okay book

The book was slow at the beginning, but it did get better by the middle and even better by the end. Sequel? I am not sure if I could stand it!

Needs new narration

I really enjoyed the overall story that was written. A retelling of one of my favorite battles in history; the battle of Troy! Hell YEAH! However, the performance aspect of this audiobook was a real downer. For me the narrator did a really poor job of having different tones of voices for the characters. Her voice was monotone for the entire story. I kept having to stop at certain parts because the voice of the narrator almost put me to sleep, multiple times. Basically, it was very hard to make it through this book without falling asleep.
The other issue I had with the book was the main character, Helen. I know that she was based on Helen of Troy, but I didn't like the way the author wrote her character. Yes, she was more badass than the original Helen of Troy but she still seemed weak and to me let people pull her around and make decisions for her way to often. She just kind of went along with certain situations and didn't really have an opinion on it. I wanted her to be stronger version of Helen and I found myself liking the other characters more than her.
Overall though, the book is a great read. I would defiently recommend for anyone that is really into Greek mythology.

Well done!

The narration was well done for the most part. I could tell when something was re-recorded or added in or whatever that was. I am a big fan of Josephine Angelini’s and have read this book several times. Despite the odd changes in the sound quality here and there, the audio was enjoyable.

Where are the Sequels?

Any additional comments?

I have gotten so sick of getting into series and having to wait a year or two for the sequels to come out. In the last 3 months i have started 6 series and will have to wait until 2014 and even 2015 to finish. ENOUGH, I said!! So I went hunting, determined to find a good series that had all the books already published. I found this trilogy on Good Reads and was excited to see all the books were out already and that they were on Audible! My mistake was not making sure ALL THREE books were on Audible. Uggggh!! I desperately want to finish this series! I will have to add it to my to-do list now, along with ALL the others. Like another review said I am surprised there aren't more reviews on this book. I would also agree with the review that I was also put off by the synopsis and didn't want to read this book initially. So much so, that for the first few chapters I thought it was going to be terrible. But to my surprise the book did a backflip and I fell in love with the twists and turns, and especially, the character development. I also like how there is a "love story" type situation in the book, but it doesn't dominate the story with puppy love or stupid triangles. There is actually a plot that isn't ENTIRELY about romance. The Greek mythology entwined in the book is intriguing and I highly recommend this book! Now if only Audible would get the other two books recorded already!
