Odd Paced, But We Got There
Revisado: 11-22-24
Overall, I genuinely enjoyed the story.
The pacing of the story felt both too fast and slow to get going.
The story did get going though and ended up being very entertaining and worth the journey.

Historia
Katarina Bishop and W.W. Hale the fifth were born to lead completely different lives: Kat comes from a long, proud line of loveable criminal masterminds, while Hale is the scion of one of the most seemingly perfect dynasties in the world. If their families have one thing in common, it's that they both know how to stay under the radar while getting-or stealing-whatever they want.

My heart is everywhere

Okay, first of all, this is brilliant.
Secondly, my emotions are in shambles.
And thirdly, I don't care how amazing this is, that was just so mean.

Historia
Tamani looked at her gravely and reached up to tuck her hair behind her ear. He hesitated for an instant, then his hands found the sides of her face, pulling her to him. He didn't kiss her, just held her face close to his, their foreheads resting together, their noses almost touching. She hated how much it felt like good-bye. Laurel now knows the truth: Yuki is a rare winter faerie, the most powerful - and deadly - of all, and Klea plans to use her to help conquer and destroy Avalon.

MY HEART

Stunning conclusion to an amazing series.
But I'll also never forgive Aprilynne for that thing at the end.
Some things should be kept to your damn self.

Emotional Whiplash
Revisado: 06-01-17
I remember clearly seeking out this series when the first was made into a movie. Recently I decided to listen to the audio books again because I couldn't remember much of them.
I remember now that, though I love them so much, the last book gave me a lot of feelings and I'm still very upset with Phillip Pullman about it.
In any case it is a fantastic conclusion to the series that I love so much.

Historia
Lyra is rushing to the cold, far North, where witch clans and armored bears rule. North, where the Gobblers take the children they steal—including her friend Roger. North, where her fearsome uncle Asriel is trying to build a bridge to a parallel world. Can one small girl make a difference in such great and terrible endeavors? This is Lyra: a savage, a schemer, a liar, and as fierce and true a champion as Roger or Asriel could want. But what Lyra doesn't know is that to help one of them will be to betray the other.

Absolutely Brilliant
Revisado: 05-27-17
The story itself resonates in ones mind and enthralls the listener to continue listening. I found it near impossible to pause and go to bed at night because I wanted to keep listening.
On the other hand, for the longest time I could remember listening to this audiobook in middle school but not much of what happened in the story because of the full cast narration.
The effects of the full cast in moments of multiple speakers or call and response draws the listener in. Though I realize now they also utilize volume dynamics between whispers and shouts so it's best to listen to with headphones or when alone.
Not the greatest when you have to keep the volume low because you're at work and have to pause when a customer comes in.

Historia
Alek and Deryn are on the last leg of their round-the-world quest to end World War I, reclaim Alek’s throne as Prince of Austria, and finally fall in love. The first two objectives are complicated by the fact that their ship, the Leviathan, continues to detour farther away from the heart of the war (and crown). And the love thing would be a lot easier if Alek knew Deryn was a girl. (She has to pose as a boy in order to serve in the British Airforce.) And if they weren’t technically enemies. The tension thickens as the Leviathan steams toward New York City with a homicidal lunatic on board....

Best Narration

Alan Cumming has just about the best narration ever. And Scott westerfeld is an amazing writer, putting both together makes the audiobook exceptionally enjoyable to listen to.

Loved It
Revisado: 04-02-17
Loved it as much as I did the trilogy.
A different narrative would have been nice though. I adore Cris Dukehart's voice. But a different voice for a new storyline would have worked.

Amazing
Revisado: 03-26-17
Really, I love the narrator's voice, and anything Rick Riordan writes. I've always loved Greek mythology, so I recognize the stories easily, and Rick made it even more fun to hear with his rendition of the finer details. And making it hilarious to listen to despite the...let's say weird things about the Ancient Greek Heroes.
Jesse, the narrator, is really just fantastic. I've loved his narrations since the third time I read the Lightening Thief but didn't want to actually take the time to read the book. I've considered buying books just because he's the narrator.
Totally worth the listen.
