Rollercoaster ride, you never want to stop❤️

Revisado: 03-20-23

The narrator did a fantastic job giving each of these characters a voice. My interest was peeked and I was sucked into this story all the way to the end. So much happens, and it's impossible to start and describe it all because the author has written it so well, I don't want to give anything away and spoil it for anyone. Whatever you think this is as book 2, it is not that. It blew my mind and I am now eagerly waiting for the next one. I love all the characters and they were all so well-developed, I cried and laughed and fell in love with all of them. You have to listen to this it's incredibly thought-provoking in such a subtle way which makes this an unforgettable experience. Well done and thank you to the author and narrator, this was such a gift!

Fantastic MM Fantasy

Narrator Dan Calley smoothly delivered the Sacred Guardian #4, most probably the final installment of this series. His flawless narration intensified the drama and tension of the story that felt like it will never end. From the first chapter right through to the end, the quest to defeat an unknown foe will keep listeners guessing. Lovers of magic and spells, secrets, and hidden enemies popping out of the woodwork will love this audiobook. I was unable to predict the plot. An excellent example of enjoying the road trip more than arriving at the destination.

The author writes extremely well-developed scenes. Listeners who like this writing style will love listening to the extensive character descriptions, their thoughts, their emotions, and the world they live in. It’s being described to the maximum. For me, this is what builds the tension. It felt like watching a Jaws movie, that dud–duh–duh–duh–duh music playing on a loop.

It was a rich imaginative experience.

I recommend this audiobook.

Narrator Dan Calley gave a good performance. Not his personal best, but I suspect he struggled as much as I did, as we dragged our depressed arses through the metaphorical valley of death, like five times before we reached any action. Darnit this was a long one. I did like the ending, it made up for all the wait. I’m not exaggerating, seven hours into the audiobook I had to question my sanity and do a few mental exercises, take a bubble bath and regroup my efforts into finishing it. Listeners who like road trips, by foot, barefoot will love it. It is very detailed, and if you are not in a rush, I mean you want to stop and smell the roses, then continue with this book. It has almost no sex in it, medium to little dark content, and only hints at subjects like child abuse. I could not decide whether this is the build-up to something big, or is this the come down after the excitement and awesomeness of books one and two.

I did like it when Shinja appeared. I always do! It’s just sad that it was so short-lived. I loved HFN ending and that the family was able to touch the snake-dragon creature, whatever it is. That was an awesome scene described by the author.

I do recommend this audiobook for those days you have nothing to do, lie next to the pool or on the beach where you can half fall asleep and wake to take a sip of your pina colada and change positions to prevent pressure sores on your forehead.

Happy Listening

Gripping keeps you guessing

Narrator Robert Grindley gave a stunning performance, utilizing his voice in all sorts of ways. He is not afraid to try new accents or voices. He will carry listeners to a futuristic dystopian world, reminding me of the Hunger Games and the Divergent series. I did hear a few uncomfortable mouth smacking and lip licking sounds, but after the first chapter, the narrator seemed like he relaxed and proved himself an excellent storyteller. I counted at least 10 different voices, which is much higher than the average. He conveys drama, tension, and angsty moments, which increased the intensity of the action and revolutionary fighting scenes.

The plot is interesting enough, so young adults and those folks not needing steamy romances will find it highly gripping. Listeners will definitely find themselves cheering for the reluctant protagonist and his lackeys which guarantees an exhilarating audiobook.

The character building and world-building were a bit vague, meaning the radius surrounding the city and the city square, and all the way to the Outlands was a bit difficult to visualize. The suppressed and oppressed outcasts suffering, wanting to fight, starting a rebellion irritated me crazy. They kept repeating their suffering, and although I heard it many times over, I did not find myself sympathizing with them. They moved extremely slowly. It felt like they got nowhere. Lots of speculation and planning, lots of guessing.

But a surprise character, appearing two hours before the ending had me sitting up. “WTF? What is going on here”, I asked myself. Hmmm, a mysterious, sexy 40 something man, being introduced,,, "down with the Patriarch!" I cheered!!!

Yes, I recommend this audiobook.

Narrator Dan Calley slid into the comfortable position, of stand back and watch me ya’ll. His growing self-assurance with using different voices, tones, and emotions, so much more effortlessly, shines positively on the enormous task of narrating an epic fantasy. He melted with the characters to tell us a tale and experience fantastic escapism. I listened at 1.2 speed. The audio quality was excellent. No weird breathing sounds or flaws.

The second book felt much more settled. The author created a true fantasy world where the success of quests are the main journey through the land so the protagonist may win the love and respect of his subjects. The author has intelligently woven the gay subject into the story, making it an excellent male/male epic fantasy. Lovers of hot sex scenes and darker themes will be astounded by the magnitude of the fresh approach on dragons and all that is magical.

I loved when Shinja appeared and fucked them all up!

I definitely recommend this series to lovers of fantasy and M/M romance

It is Awesome

Narrator John Solo’s performance of True Blue, book 2 of the Prosper Woods Chronicles was outstanding! Supernatural beings are crawling out of the woodworks, and for each new character, he magically pulled out a unique voice. This narrator’s hat of tricks is bottomless and his talent for conveying comedy really infused the story with silliness and fun.

The author astounded me with her creative shenanigans. I loved the snails and seagulls references, and I loved the Prosper Woods Chronicles, Letters to the Editor. After each chapter, we hear a new letter. Like a little pick-me-up before the chapters. Each time I am excited to hear what comes next, but simultaneously sad because the end is creeping closer. The ridiculousness of it all floored me. It is totally original and all the shit anyone ever wondered about supernatural is in there.

I swear, it’s like the author decided to show us what she is really capable of. Gone are the days of A meets B and shags until C! It’s like, you wanted supernaturals, I will give you supernaturals until you choke on them from laughter.

The only thing I don’t like is the ending, it felt clipped short because it all came to end right after a battle scene. So now all the characters are still standing there and waiting for us to return.

Otherwise, it is a treat like no other. I do recommend this series.

Excellent Experience

Revisado: 06-12-21 El oyente recibió este título gratis

Narrator Dan Calley blew this raven's feather up in the air and managed to keep it floating for over 14 hours. Leaving me numb and speechless, but in a good way, I suppose. I am never speechless… Let’s just say dumbstruck with my foot in my mouth. An ouroborosly aha moment, realizing the irony of it all. This sci-fi novel was narrated beautifully, it truly conveys a living experience of being consumed by oneself. Whether the author has done this consciously or not, it took me a week to percolate this and to rationally describe the experience of seeing and feeling a sunset in person, instead of it being described to you.

I felt the story and I tip my hat to the author. The core of the story can be told in one hour, but the world-building and the intrinsic detail to every single person, place, and object were magnificent. So, while we were all up in the air, thanks to the excellent narration. The author managed to put us down so gently. By the time it’s the end you feel like a baby being rocked to sleep, wishing for more songs. But, barely able to hold on to reality, before giving in to calm and peace of happily ever after.

The day is over, the 14 hours are over. Everything has been said, but still, you hope to hear more. Totally spoiled and ruined.

I absolutely recommend this audiobook. Book one is dark and this one was the journey to the light. They are pieces of one story, but totally different.

Bloody Marvelous, loved it!

Revisado: 05-14-21 El oyente recibió este título gratis

The cheeky and steamy performance by John Solo fulfilled my prediction of the start of a stunningly enjoyable paranormal series; Prosper Woods Chronicles by the crafty Patricia Logan. My expectation of a novel filled with humor and originality was fulfilled many times over. So many characters, each with their own personality that matches a shifter animal. Absolutely bloody stunning!

The dramatic confrontational scenes and the conflict within the local werewolves pack, plus the introduction of unseen spiritual forces, a little boy called Blue, helped to keep the plot interesting which created a captivating synopsis. This narrator is a master of pacing and dramatic flair, he will carry listeners through the many layers of this story, while it feels like you are sitting in a movie theatre, eating popcorn, and watching a paranormal rom-com with a boisterous crowd.

I absolutely recommend this series. The characters are vibrant and it’s uniquely smartly plotted.
