Narrator Ruined the Story

Would you consider the audio edition of Darkness to be better than the print version?

No. It's always unfortunate when a narrator ruins a good story. This happens to be one of those times. The female lead character came off as whiny and annoying, the inflections and constant breathlessness at the end of each sentence made me cringe. The male lead came off as one dimensional and harsh.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No. I actually had to force myself to finish listening to it.

Any additional comments?

I loved the plot but will need to read a hard copy version to get a better view of the characters. Both main characters came off as incredibly annoying because of the way the narrator read them. I always enjoy Karen's books, but this one turned me off because of the narration (and an over excessive use of adjectives describing everything down to a rock...)

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes

Any additional comments?

With my time in traffic I now spend the majority of my time listening to books rather than sitting down and reading them, and have gotten picky about my narrators. Emily Lindsay's debut was beyond impressive. She kept the story flowing, with no awkward pauses or infliction. I also thoroughly enjoyed her accents. It kept keeping the characters from mixing together easy and the plot moving even easier.

This was also A.L Kessler's debut book. My favorite part was the plot and all the characters in the world she created. Kassity was that perfect mix between strong and vulnerable. Lucius was a character that intrigued me from the beginning, and I have a feeling as I continue to read this series will keep doing so. I'm a reader that loves secondary characters, and boy does Kessler have some secondary characters that I am chomping at the bits to read about. She weaved a world that I didn't find hard to step into, and I'm looking forward to the next one, and the next one after that.
