confusing timeline

Revisado: 02-27-20

didn't understand the timeline. 20+ yrs would have needed to pass after Selena's death for the story to work, but I didn't get the sense it had been more than a couple months.

Slower than the rest

Revisado: 05-13-17

The last 2'5 hrs of the book was 4.5 stars. The rest was about a 3. It felt much slower than previous BDB books.

Great, but....

Revisado: 07-19-15

I didn't like the Miles' narrator that much. He sounded like John Malkovich, which made it hard for me to picture a 20-something. Outside of that everything else was wonderful.

Not that great

Revisado: 03-05-15

This book was kind of all over the place for me. I might even rate it 2.5. I felt like it was trying to be like "Devil in The White City" by going back and forth between stories and descriptions about the city/country and Lindy's story. But it felt too jumpy. I also thought some of the prose was long-winded and I found myself having to go back and re-read sections because I started thinking about something else. I did enjoy the end of the book.

wonderful book

Revisado: 06-27-13

Great book. It's like a Robert Altman film with several characters whose lives all connect in some way. The only issue I had was with Richard Burton being a relatively main character and certainly a central part of the plot. It was hard to suspend disbelief. All in all a great novel with an extremely well written and poignant ending.

Good story, if a bit confusing

Revisado: 02-25-13

I've enjoyed this series so far. However, I found the second book harder to keep up with than the first. The timelines and crossing between them got to be hard to keep track of. But, whenever I got back on track, I continued to enjoy the story.

Narration: Unfortunately. I'm not a fan of Matthew Brown. His female voices are indistinguishable from one another and he only has 2-3 distinct male voices, unless a regional access is involved. That makes listening to the story a bit more difficult. I usually have to wait for a character to state who's talking.

Not as good as the first book in the series

Revisado: 01-31-13

This novel was like two books. The first half was a little hard to follow, contained too many characters, very dark, slow and not all that interesting. It seemed like part of a different series. I listened to it on audio book, so I thought maybe that was the reason, but I LOVED the second half. The second half had all the same qualities of the first book - engrossing, fast paced, intriguing, etc. I would have given the book 4 or 5 stars if the entire book read like the second half.

LOVE Karen Marie Moning

Revisado: 12-11-12

Loved, Loved, Loved! I missed the Fever Series so much - I was so happy to be back in that world. I was sad that Mac and Barrons weren't the focus of the story, but quickly came to love the banter between Dani and Ryodan, and Christian's weirdness. The story is a great mystery, but it's really the dynamic between the characters that makes it. In fact, the story was so good, it made me realize just how much I had been missing the Fever series and I started reading that all over again. Thanks, Karen!

P.S. - It would be AWESOME if you could get Natalie Ross and Phil Gigante to re-do the narration on the earlier Fever books.
