Please God let there be no more psy female main characters with this narrator. I’m going to have to re listen to book number three before I carry on with this series else I would stop now. I hope that changes in the remaining books. That’s fine, but the only people she’s portraying as good at the moment are the changelings. The author has also brought the human alliance into the story. Talking about sex, or having sex, isn’t romance in my opinion. The story was ok, but there was no romance.
Hearing that term and having to listen to the narrator voice the psy females got on my nerves so badly that I honestly feel I have shingles. AGAIN!, I thought that was over after the first book, but no. Not to mention I had to listen to Lucas call Sascha, “kitten” several times. Plus I was treated to hearing her voice Sascha and Faith the same way, as they appeared a lot in this book.
She reads them as if they’re simpering, meek idiots. Ashaya was a good character and I quite liked her, but the way the narrator reads the psy women’s voices sets every one of my nerves on edge. The one part at the end I was interested in, Dorian finally becoming whole, lasted a total of six minutes!! We had longer than that listening to the, “encrypted personal files of Ashaya Aleine,” that were inserted into practically every chapter. A few chapters before he fell apart when finding a dying psy family and had the psy traveler agree to avenge them. Once he told Ashaya he didn’t care if silence fell and the psy died or were harmed as a result. He gave me whiplash with his mood swings. In fact had I been Ashaya I’d of run screaming from him. He did nothing to show intelligence or charm. We were told by the heroine and supporting cast on many occasions that Dorian was intelligent and charming, but simply having characters state that doesn’t make it so. He was either angry, snarling or having a pity party the entire book. I liked Dorian in the previous book but found he grated on me in this book.
Unfortunately this book had me taking two steps, and two stars, back. After absolutely loving book three, enjoying book four and taking two steps forward with this series I was looking forward to Dorian and Ashaya’s book.
