This title uses virtual voice narration

Virtual voice is computer-generated narration for audiobooks.

My life changed the day I tried to take his.

Mhavenna is a glorious city but, like every city on the face of Serai, it's run by Dragons. As a human, I'm on the lowest rung of the racial ladder here, as far from an illustrious Dragon as I could be, and I've made me peace with that. I don't like Dragons much, but like or dislike has nothing to do with my work. So when my broker offered me the task of killing the Dragon King, I took it. It was the sort of kill that could make an assassin's career, and I was certain that I had the skills for it.

I was wrong, nearly dead wrong.

The King caught me before I could finish the job, but instead of killing me, he made me his. I'm now the Dragon King's assassin. A warning and a weapon. A way for him to bypass his own laws without personally breaking them. But that's not all. He's tasked me with guarding him against future attacks. Who better to stop an assassin than another assassin? And who better to find the one who hired us? If only the King didn't have a body that made me salivate, a face that made my knees weak, and a pair of teal eyes that made me whimper. If only he didn't stare at me with those stunning eyes as if I could be more than property to him. Maybe then I could do my job, find the person who wants him dead, and save my own life. But I don't believe in miracles.

The AI was good after awhile the story was intriguing enough that I forgot it was AI reading it. I was surprised about the sexual orientation of the characters. A lable

I began and ended the book in a day. The story gets you swept up and before you know it, you're listening to the book every free chance you get. Well done! My 1st virtual voice too.

A very good listen

I enjoyed the story, but I feel like it was ruined by the narration. Inappropriate pauses, poor inflection, and zero distinction between characters made the story hard to understand at points. It also just sucked the life right out of it. I’m appalled that they chose to use mechanical narration.

Horrendous Narration

The story is good but no Ai can understand context and emotion so the emphasis is placed on the wrong words far too often. AI have no passion or desire and it detracted from my enjoyment, listening to a raunchy scene described the same way as a fight scene or words of love the same way as threats of death.
Only a human can understand how it feels to be human

Not a fan of AI

This was a wonderful story full of rich world building, terrific character development, and lots of hot spice. This is the first book that I listened to as part of whisper sync, and I was concerned since it is a virtual voice; however, I was so thoroughly surprised at the quality. It truly did feel as if a narrator was reading the story. There were a few moments you can tell it’s AI, but likely because I knew it ahead of time.

Highly Recommend!

I was sceptical at first about the virtual voice and then quickly pleasantly impressed. I had a highschool physics teacher that was more monotone and inflectionless than this virtual voice. It's not perfect and can get a little confusing where there is dialogue between two different characters. And it obviously doesn't perform the emotional scenes but it was impressive for a virtual voice.

The story was well written, planned out, and left me with all the happy feelings and determination to seek out the next book. Thank you so much!

Surprisingly good virtual voice!

the story is captivating, love the characters, the computer voice did an ok job i guess: it mispronounced a word or two every few pages worth of words but other than that it did ok.👍❤️

great story, vertual voice decent

The story and writing is passable but the reading is atrocious! Using automated reading instead of allowing a human to read the story that any of the inflections or the understanding of the words which are trying to be expressed. All too often it is the tone and the inflection on how a word is spoken that can change the entire sentence. I’m using digital readers only makes this entire experience torment.
Imagine if you read my review and a monotone voice without any understanding of the words and how they should be expressed. abduction, no revulsion properly expressed or felt when listening to a book read by robot

Automating readers SUCKS
