So if negative stars was possible id give it that. I couldn't finish this book. There is nothing in it that would trigger me personally, except for disgust. If you are into emotional and sexual abuse and almost incest then this the book for you. If you like this book you do you no judgment for me its a hard pass on the rest of this book and the author but that's just my humble opinion.

this was a horrible ending to an amazing 8 book series. it took me longer to get through the last half of the last book than all the others combined. This is truly personal though depending on your own likes and dislikes in characteristics. also
NOT A REVERSE HAREM.
in anyway.
i will still listen to it again though in the future but ill be skipping parts.

i thought the narration itself was the same as the previous books, but the production was worse. repeating lines and words choppy sounding transitions and it felt like, in a couple of places, pieces of the story were missing. it doesn't make a difference in storyline everything is easy to figure out its just annoying to have spent a credit on the 3rd book in a series to find out that its construction wasn't given the same attention as the first two. im pretty invested in the series so heres hoping. #4 is better.

I would have given it 4 stars for the performance except for two things. I kept hearing thumping in the background and the narrator mispronounced a bunch of words. Maybe I'm being picky but I think if you are going to narrorate a book as a professional, that people pay for, at least good a word to hear how it's said if you don't know. maybe I'm wrong it's just my humble opinion

I absolutely love this book. I think my only issue with it is that the second one isn't due out until January! I need to know now. Everything all of it I need to know it. I can see myself listening to this one again for sure. I'm off to get the other series by this author and I don't even know what it's about.

so I could put up with the female narrator enough to listen to the series. I thought it was entertaing until the quarter of the third book. It seemed rushed, words that aren't actually words were used, and the reactions of the characters to the ending events were not believable at all, granted, the whole story is fiction but there is just a lack of any relatability at the end. Also it was easy to figure out who the vessel was immediately. if you like that sort of thing or are ok with it. it wasn't a bad series. I would give it a higher rating if the narrators were better and suggest uping the speed to listen but that is just my humble opinion.

but I felt like the female narrator was actually in an advertisement and trying to sell me something. Both could do with better differentiation between voices but it was good enough that I got the second book even though they narrorate that one as well.
