No one can touch King

Revisado: 01-16-25

After reading King, it’s hard to be captivated by another writer. Thankfully he is prolific.

Engaging story, great narration

Revisado: 04-10-24

I’ve listened to all of McTiernan’s novels available on audible and she never disappoints. Believable storyline and includes viewpoints from every angle.

Snooze fest

Revisado: 10-28-23

Stilted narration with a painfully plodding storyline. Just couldn’t get past the third episode. The main character describes mundane aspects of his daily business as though listeners should care.

Engaging story sprinkled with plot twists

Revisado: 09-25-23

Intriguing story with plot twists that are believable but thankfully not forecast. Excellent narration that seamlessly transitions between Scottish and Australian accents. This is my first Anni Taylor book, but certainly not my last.

Suspenseful & engaging

Revisado: 09-13-23

Unable to stop listening! Well written story with a few twists and turns, surprising down to the last paragraph. Great narration, but narrator could improve on conveying male voices; most sounded feminine.

Entertaining storyteller

Revisado: 09-10-23

This is my fourth audiobook by Dervla McTiernan. Her stories are intriguing, and the excellent narration by Aoife McMahon keeps me coming back for more.

I tried to like this story

Revisado: 11-18-21

The author of this book should find a new career. The writing is juvenile, repetitive, and boring. The narrator adds to the horror by being overly dramatic about everything. I made it about 1/3 of the way through this story with the hope that it might improve, before I finally gave up.

not as engaging as her other stories

Revisado: 09-16-21

A good beginning and ending, but the majority of the story was a retelling of the French revolution with characters that did not entirely capture my interest, and so I plodded through.

unabridged version is repetitive beyond tolerable

Revisado: 08-30-21

I struggled to finish this book; it felt like work, so much repetitive material that began to feel preachy, perhaps even forced, as though the writer was just trying to appease her fandom's love of this series. I usually like Simon Vance as a narrator, but found his interpretation of Lestat to be particularly grating. Perhaps reading, rather than listening to the unabridged version would have been better. I grew up reading and loving many of Anne Rice's works, including the Vampire Chronicles. For those who loved the V. Chronicles, I highly recommend trying the unabridged version. And if you have tired of the V. Chronicled, I recommend Anne Rice's series about the Mayfair Witches.

Good follow up to Book 1

Revisado: 12-23-20

But as a fan of Toni Frutin’s narration from book 1, I was frustrated by the seemingly monotone narration of Gary Furlong, to the point of nearly canceling my purchase. Thankfully the story was compelling enough to suffer through his sections.
