Critic reviews

Morris Award Finalist, 2013

Great first attempt.

Would you consider the audio edition of Hold Me Closer Necromancer to be better than the print version?

IMHO 99% of books are better done in audio format.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Hold Me Closer Necromancer?

When Sam gets his first burst of real power after his mother removes her protection spell from him.

Which scene was your favorite?

I found many exciting scenes.

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

Yes

Any additional comments?

I would have given this 5 stars across the board except for the fact that JT Ross pronounced the word "couldn't " In a most annoying way. Like he was from New Jersey. No ofence NJ. The book started off kind of slow but after the first hour it started to flow nicely. I hope this is the first in a series. No explicit sex if you are into that, which I am not. Thank you for that Ms McBride. I will read more by you. Worth the credit.

Movies?

This book and the sequel needs a movie! I love them so much! Where it at?!?

Great book

Love, love, love this book and series. I am very excited to see what happens next.

Great book

The story is great as always, I would expect nothing else from Lish McBride. Narrative was mediocre. I feel that there was a better choice of narrators, but not terrible.

I would recommend to fantasy lovers

Great story and well written caricatures I can’t wait to start reading the second book
