Unsatisfying end ☹️

Revisado: 08-16-21

Though the storyline was engaging & has potential, and the narrator did well in conveying the intended emotion, the characters were too extreme & therefore difficult to believe or invest in.
Devil Bill (villain) had no redeeming qualities whatsoever, while (heroine) Naomi's bright & long-suffering attitude in the face of extreme abuse lacks the desperation & anger that should be generated by such treatment - even if only in her private thoughts.
The ending left no real resolution, good or bad, & was very unsatisfying - kind of a cliffhanger.
I rarely write such a negative review & wish I could give a better rating, but I just can't.

Heartwarming

Revisado: 05-23-19

Good story & well-narrated.
The constant change of POV was a little distracting, making it difficult to figure out who to follow with a consistent thread, and who to sympathize with.
But the story was well thought out & very enjoyable to read.

This was a fun fantasy novella that kept this reader's attention throughout.
Looking forward to reading the next book - Merman's Quest!

Accurately portrayed

Revisado: 05-16-19

Very enjoyable story that kept true to history for the most part, altering or embellishing only for the sake of clarity.
Narrator's performance was well done, giving a voice to each unique character.
If you enjoy ancient history with a human connection, this novel is highly recommended.

Quick read

Revisado: 02-10-19

Interesting paranormal plot.
Overall, a quick read.
Characters personalities could have been more developed and engaging. Their behavior and responses were sometimes odd and forced.
A little more research needed, too. (i.e. Lusitania sank 3 years After the Titanic, etc.)
Author has potential. Seems like the story was written quickly and could have been fleshed out to be much more entertaining.
Didn't really draw me in to have empathy for the characters, or rivet me to the storyline. It was short, and I made it to the end.

Cliffhanger

Revisado: 07-04-18

This story was entertaining, characters engaging and believable for a mythical tale, but it left the reader in an unfinished place. in my opinion.
Too many unresolved issues and not a good place to end the tale.

A fun romp through the life of a 24 year old with enough emotional baggage for everyone. Great characters and plot twists.

Awesome!

Revisado: 03-02-18

If you love ancient history, this brings to life characters of Rome with a deep, factual story of traditions, rituals and emotions that will keep you enthralled to the end.
The narrator brings individuality to each player with voices of the past that pull you into their lives.
Loved it!
