What Audible Listeners Are Saying
5/5 stars — “Dannng!”
So I’m not going to lie…… I had never read anything from Leigh Bardigo before, so understanding the Grisha stuff was difficult at the beginning for me. The names of places, gangs, descriptions, and people threw me off, and for the first few chapters, I questioned listening further. <br/><br/>But!!!!! When the plot started to pick up, it shot straight up, and I was enthralled. <br/>I ended up really liking this book, and frustrated when it ended. The sequel cannot come soon enough!!! <br/><br/>Nina and Inej were my favorites (though, I’m a lady, so that isn’t very surprising), but I still liked how each character had an intricate web of a background. At first, the many characters was confusing and frustrating, but again, that quickly changed 🙂 <br/><br/>Bravo! I loved it.— Christina, Audible listener
4/5 stars — “Some What Annoying Reading”
This story captures your attention quickly and then lights your imagination on fire as it opens a colorful and deliciously textured world for your listening pleasure.The way different cultures are used, the character development, and the action packed adventure of it all will keep you on your toes. I did not, however, appreciate the way the different voice actors were used, which is why I gave this book a mediocre performance score. Rather than having each of the actors voice their own character through the entire reading, one actor would read through an entire chapter at a time and voice all of the characters that appear in that chapter. This made things slightly confusing at some points, and I found this style to be against my personal taste.— Rachel Katsanis, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “Ocean’s 11 with teenagers”
The switch between voice actors was surprising. Multiple actors speak for the different characters so there were probably six voices for one character. <br/><br/>The author switched POV so often to assist the grand scheme suspense. It was usually told by the POV of the person who didn’t know what was happening. <br/><br/>Kaz was a little too jaded for me, but I thought the overall story was very fun. I could imagine it being a made into an Ocean’s 11-type film.— Iveysvines, Audible listener
