Great little listen!

So this book has two narrators, which is different for a JR book, and I didn't feel like EITHER the male voice or the female voice actually fit the characters, although the male voice grew on me. The female voice never did. I didn't like her voice at all, and especially when she was so nasally most of the time.

The story was great, and it made me look forward to the accompanying novel.

I guess I should have read the summary before starting this because if I had known what it was I would have waited for the 1st book in the series. With that said, I love the idea of this series and I know it's going to be great! This "prequel" is very different and kind of a build up for whats to come but I have to say.... HUGE CLIFFHANGER... like it just cuts off mid-sentence. I'll be impatiently waiting for Consumed and hoping its a full size book.

The narration really wasn't for me, they weren't bad narrators, they just didn't fit in my opinion and they didn't pull me into the story & characters the way most narrators do. I've listened to these two many times an it's not them, just casting I think.

Could not finish.

I tried twice to listen. The female narrator didn't do it for me. I'm not sure if the story was any good.

Female narrator

Loved the story, I'm a big JR Ward fan, but the female narrator sounded like she was talking through her nose and was very distracting.

I liked the story but I guess I am old school I would have rather had the book to read I would find my mind wondering and not listening. And listening to someone else speak the voices didn’t match to what o thought they should sound like from when I read consumed. It took me a while to decide to go from a book in my hand to a kindle. I still miss the smell of a book if that makes sense. I might like to listen to something that wasn’t a story.
