Decent but alightly disappointed

Enjoyed the narrators voice all except for her Jean Claude imitation it was atrocious and made me cringe every time I heard it but she did very well in my opinion with every other character deposits were appropriate her feel for the situation was very good I thought also I noticed they don’t read from the book there are chunks and sections missing from the audiobook as compared to the actual book I’m new to audiobook so I don’t know if that’s a common thing but I know I need to Blake very well enough to realize they skip over several bits of narration and not just in this book but also in other Eneida Blake books

Medium, good narration, bad story

The narrator of this series is an excellent fit for Anita Blake. However, I long since abandoned this series because Ms. Hamilton lost the working class stories of a zombie raiser and vampire executioner for a harem of men and a self righteous attitude. This book is when this series start to head downhill fast.

Personal opinion

She keeps skipping parts. She has skipped several parts while reading. This is my first audio book I've listened to. And probably the last
