Story
Ahren and his companions journey on to Evergreen, finding new courage after the traumas of the Green Sea. Setting off, then, to traverse the continent in search of the missing Paladin Yollock, it isn't long before they find themselves sucked into a maelstrom of adventures involving a woman who has been robbed, a desperate Cape Verstaad grandee, not to mention a cutthroat city which proves itself a veritable nest of ne'er-do-wells. Controlled by the brilliant assassin Reik Silvermantle, this hub of lawlessness and immorality presents Ahren and his friends with one of their greatest challenges.

Sadly the narrator was the wrong choice!

I absolutely love Torsten Weitzer's 13th Paladin series, until now! Gerdart was a superb narrator for this book and I have no idea why the author changed him for Tim Casey. Tim simply changed every character that we had experienced so far and it was immensely disappointing. if Gildart doest return then I cannot continue to the end! Tim Casey isn't a bad narrator, just not suitable for this series of books and after Gildart Jackson created characters' voices. The author shouldn't have accepted a narrator that couldn't pick up where Gildart left off. Bring back Gildart, please.

It's a great story, but I was a little disappointed with the narrator. Too stilted and not enough character in his voice.

When the rules turn deadly, winning is everything. Only available from Audible, a gripping psychological thriller from the author of Silent Child, Saving April, and The Broken Ones. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Lisa Jewell and Paula Hawkins. The perfect couple. The perfect marriage. The perfect game. Effie and Ben May have everything. Success. Beauty. Glamour. But beneath the charming smiles and expensive clothes, a twisted game is in progress. A game for which only they know the rules.

The previous book I read was narrated by a different person and completely spoilt the effect of the story with his appalling accents. HOWEVER, I am so pleased for Joy Ellis that she brought Richard Armitage on board as narrator for this book. His narration and the storyline was brilliant. Full marks, 10 house points and a gold star for this one : )

Story
When Matt Ballard was starting out his career, three boys were murdered in the same area, the remote and bleak Gibbet Fen. When the main suspect was killed in a hit-and-run, the killings stopped. But Matt was not satisfied that the real murderer had been caught. Over 25 years later, Matt gets a photo in an unmarked envelope. It's of the Gibbet Fen crime scene. And the picture was taken before the murder took place. More photos arrive, relating to the historic murders, as well as intimate pictures of Matt's very secret private life.

Brilliant story, appalling narration
Reviewed: 23-03-24
Joy Ellis' storys are amazingly great, but unfortunately for this one, the narrator, Anthony Ferguson, is terrible! In particular, his use of British dialects (Bryn is Welsh but sounds Cornish) and many other anomalies, plus Ferguson is clearly British but used American English too much! Thoro instead of thorough was a massive bug bear for me. I'm listening to the next book in this series (Book 2) and I'm pleased to say the narrator is great...don't base all Joy's books on the dreadful narration of Antony Ferguson. One thing, for certain, is I will not purchase a book with Ferguson as the narrator ever again!

It's just over a week until Sam will be Binding with Jared, and the only thing she wants is to spend that time relaxing and preparing for the ceremony. Unfortunately, she seems to be asking too much of fate, because suddenly she's lumbered with a number of distractions that have the potential to postpone, or even cancel, the Binding. There's a guarded fiance to crack, a complicated assignment to deal with, Jared's ex to alienate, and a bunch of snobbish Master Vampires to win over - or offend, whichever. On the upside, things couldn't possibly be any worse, could they?

Sam Parker is a vampire with a gift so strong and substantial that she is invited to partake in a test for a place in the Grand High Master Vampire's private army. She finds that not only has the army never included a woman, but it has never included a Svente vampire; a breed that is regarded by the super strong Pagori breed and the hypnotically beautiful Keja breed to be too tame and human-like.

A brilliant sexy vampire story
Reviewed: 03-02-24
I enjoyed the book very much. Being English and living close to London England, my only negative was that considering Sam Parker was meant to be a Cockney neither narrator honed the Cockney accent at all. PJ still sounded like an American badly attempting Cockney and Justine, although doing a great middle class British English accent, did not sound like a Cockney either. Americans often struggle with British English and Canadians, when mimicking British English do a good job but British dialects aren't easy. A voice coach may have helped to make it more believable, or maybe it would have been better to have left out the Cockney element from the story altogether. That said both narrators were brilliant and I absolutely loved the story. I'm looking forward to listening to Suzanne Wright's The Bite That Binds, now x

I wasn't sure what to expect but I loved the story, as scary a thought as it was, and is incredibly thought provoking...considering what is happening with humanity in this day and age. I feel anything is possible. This amazing book makes me believe that with the powers that control us this could be a reality and we, as humans, are more powerful as a collective. I loved this. Great authorship great narration x
