Poor Narration

Narration not very good. Lack of needed inflections, barely noticeable voice changes. Chosen dialect mismatched, writer keeps changing tones and you lose a sense of the error as the story progresses. With that said, although the first volume is very short, the story line is interesting enough to compel you to move on to the second. Hopefully it will be better written.

It's has decent story line.

It's entertaining but the narrator just sounds like a robot for most of the story.

Great short read

I enjoyed this book. i have now read the entire series. in my opinion they should have put all books together to make one book. after first book there is a lot of repition and i was able to easily one book a night.

Where’s the meat?

I am sure this was a set up for what is to come in the series but it seemed short and the narration bland. Not sure I want to continue this series.

Unenjoyable narration

I have no complaints about the book itself. The narrator on the other hand was flat. She struggled to differentiate between voices and read in a monotone for the majority of the book. This would have been much more enjoyable with better narration.
