one of the best ever.

Revisado: 09-15-18

this has been one of my favorite books for over ten years. The villains are the perfect villains and the heroes are as unique as they are iconic.

mediocrity

Revisado: 03-06-18

if you were looking for inventive world building and lovable characters you aren't gonna find them here. The setting and characters are fresh from the cookie cutter. Woman who writes reports on the activities of supernatural creatures for the shadow government is a little too tightly wound and work obsessed goes to a colorful Cajun town and meets a bunch of colorful characters including a straight talking no nonsense sheriff who is also a dragon. they don't get along until they both realize the other person is hot then they bone down.

If you were hoping for steamy sex. you are going to be disappointed here as well. You want to know what those scenes are like?

"We got naked his dick was big. He stuck it in me and thrusted the thrusts were large and good. I cummed"

there, I saved you six hours. Now you can just imagine what it would be like to be a mythical creature having sex with a tightly wound blonde woman. Impressive considering that the author didn't bother to.

excellent comedy

Revisado: 06-30-17

one may expect that physical comedy would not work well in the form of a novel but one would be wrong

a perfect memoir

Revisado: 03-27-17

this book did a lot of things very well. At the beggining of each chapter Trevor Noah explains something about South Africa during and immediately after apartheid. Not only does this provide background for Trevor's childhood but it gives the reader a small idea of what life in South Africa was like the same way "Persepolis" did for life in Iran. The stories he tells are about a hard life but he does not tell them as a tragedy. Trevor Noah makes these stories both funny and full of powerful emotional impact. Trevor Noah was also an excellent narrator and I hope that he narrates other books for audible in the future.

just bad

Revisado: 11-14-16

This was just plain bad. The writing was corny and stilted and the delivery was melodramtic yet boring. they actually included a take where the narrator said the wrong word and then went back to the beginning of the sentence and tried again. The ending was the most hackneyed of all possible endings. If a 13 year old wrote this and showed it to me I would try to tell them as gently as possible to study the fundamentals of writing and storytelling and then try again. I want my $2.76 back

a good story with bad writing

Revisado: 11-08-16

Fans of the Five Nights at Freddy's games will enjoy the exploration of this world and the slow expansion of the mystery where some questions are answered and more questions appear. That being said this book has some serious problems. As a college freshman there were certain things my professor tried to drill into me about good writing. Don't state feelings, express them, the same goes for character traits and atmosphere. For example, early in the book at Charlie's childhood home begins to look more sinister to her as the sun sets and the shadows grow long. Instead of saying "the building began to look sinister" the author should have described the appearance until the reader started to see a sinister looking place in their mind's eye.
