I love this story!

Revisado: 01-06-23

I understand my bias in favor of the narrator generally as I've loved a lot of the books she's narrated. This story is excellent and one of the best long form books I've listened to in a long time. I really prefer 20 hour and longer books presuming it's not just full of fluff and filler and this story delivers very well. As usual when I find a new author I've not read before that has a really good story right out of the gate I'm anxious for the next book and the next and so on. I really hope this story and the audio books continue in quick succession.

A great new series to discover.

I loved this book. I have not read any of the other series this author has written so I went into this one cold and was very happy to purchase and listen to the next couple in the series as well. I've seen complaints about the narrator difference compared to his other series in this world and while they prefer the narrator they are used to I found nothing to complain about the narration here. It was solid and easy to listen to. I do plan to purchase the rest of this series as it comes out and eventually pick up the books in his other series to see where the origins of this universe started.

Solid first novel to start a series. Keep it up.

I'll admit I bought this book out of curiosity to see if he inherited similar talent from his father for building stories I enjoy. I was NOT disappointed at anything with this book. It's as good a first book as I've seen from any new author. I'm confident I should enjoy future installments of this series and will like watching his writing abilities grow with experience. I'm also interested to see if he will become as prolific a writer as his father has been at times (waiting years between book is not my favorite experience).
The narrator was new to me as well but put in a solid performance judging by his own merits in this production. Unlike other's criticisms I don't expect every narrator to be to have wildly unique voices to draw on for characters. There was enough variation for me to enjoy the story and not get confused in who's point of view was being presented but of course part of that is the job of the author too. Would I have loved Marsters or one of my other favorite narrators to voice this book? Sure, who wouldn't? Cronin does an excellent job here though in my opinion and I will go looking for him voicing other books to see if he's done any more books that catch my interest.

No disappointments whatsoever

I really enjoyed this story by NC Reed. It's the second title by the author (Odd Billy Todd being the first and was also excellent) that I've listened to and expected it to be good and it was no disappointment. I might have preferred this tale to stretch out into a small series but that's only a selfish desire of mine to keep a good story going by a good author.

Love it!

It's not really a surprise to me that I loved this one. I've loved every other book in the Nightlord series too.

It's great to see the story from Phoebe's point of view. I look forward to future tales from her focus. I enjoyed Reba Buhr narration and will seek out other books she's narrated as well.

Excellent as usual.

I come to this with the prejudice that I've loved every entry of Butcher's Dresden series. This story was no different, I loved it. Yes, I miss James Marsters narration of established characters but as usual (Ghost Story) I got over myself and enjoyed Jim's narration too. I absolutely loved the bloopers that were included at the end too, that would be something cool to include in any future books too.

Excellent as always

I find that I generally don't have to think about buying a novel or compilation of stories by Faith Hunter and narrated by Khristine Hvam. The are and have always been great. This collection is no exception and I loved all the stories.

Another excellent listen in the series.

Revisado: 04-28-22

I openly admit my favorable bias for the author's work and as well as the narrator. This series was my introduction to the genre and have purchased most of Schinhofen's books available on Audible. The narration was superb as I've come to expect from Irondale no matter the author. I'm somewhat saddened to find that this appears to be the last of the series because I've enjoyed them all as well as the overall premise of the series. Perhaps a later spinoff series can be developed to push into other areas of the world that has been created.

I really liked this series.

Bought series as this omnibus. This is the first I've purchased by this author and narrators. I loved the originality, subject and flow of the story. I will purchase more by the author and narrators in the future. The only quibble I have for this series is debatable. I could do with a little less repetition in the stats recital at various points but that's pretty minor as far as critique. I will enjoy listening to this series several times over the coming years.
