Meh story and even worse narration

The story is ridiculous and an uttter mess. Jin is alternatively a top skilled shifter that everyone loves and listens to and a damsel in distress. But uneven characterization is a Calmes staple. As is a story with 101 subplots and world building that had no structure and yet insane amount of rules that she will explain ad noseum. But wait, she will also break them if it suits the plot. The narration was awful, too. So wooden.

I remember liking this book when I first read it years ago. As such, I was very surprised how much I disliked the audio version. I suspect it was largely due to the narrator. Her interpretation of the characters, especially Rachel, made me dislike them. They all sounded either insipid or overbearing and pushy. Plus, the narrator's constant and very loud swallowing was very distracting.

The substance was 5 stars; very interesting and well reasoned. The narration was horrible. 1 star or less. I had to listen at an increased speed to make it bearable. It was like Shatner on steroids.

The narration was fine. The substance was okay. Clearly biased, but there are so many books with pro-Tudor bias that I'm ok with some balancing of the scales. I had to return the title because it was incomplete. The background chapter on torture just cut off. I'm not sure about other omissions, but that one was pretty glaring.

This is a must listen for the fans of the Tarot Sequence series. There are so many revelations included in this book! As with all the books in the series, the characters are engaging and the world building is amazing. K.D. Edwards is a master of layers. The narration is amazing.

The author is clearly not a subject matter expert. There are much better books on Alexander. I recommend skipping this one.

2.5 stars. I am a fan of this author, and I liked this book just fine when I read it, but it did not translate well to audio. The dialog sounded repetitive and just off. The narration wasn't right either. Overall, it was a meh listing experience.

Great MCs, good plot, and narration that gets better with every book. Good escape during these difficult times.

I liked this book when I first read it, but what makes this version especially outstanding is the narration. It was amazing and brought the story to life. Mr. David's voice is so expressive you could hear all the various moods and emotions. Just excellent.

I liked the book when I read it and decided to check out the audio. The narration is worst I've heard since I got into audiobooks. It really does not do the book any favors. It's the first narration I've heard that deadened the story rather than bring it to life. I suggest you give the written book a chance if you didn't like it in the audio version.
