Any additional comments?

I loved this book when I read it several years ago & truly enjoyed this audio version...David Stifel does a great job narrating...I hated for it to end. And now I look forward to the rest of the series on audio!

love

I love this series I've read them about 10 times and listen to them numerous times.

Loved the series ... hate to be at the end!

Loved meeting this family in the series. Although they have issues their love for each other overcomes.

Lots of plot twist to keep it interesting. Recommend you read the series in order.

Terrific End to the Series!

What did you love best about The Wicked One?

I love how Lucien got 'his comeuppance.' It was as though Love itself was sick of his bold maneuvers and relentless control of his siblings. In the end, he got a much truer lesson than anything his siblings could have planned for him.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Wicked One?

Hard question, as there were several of them. One was when Lucien's rescue of his wife was greatly hampered by his injury and subsequent inability to make it back home to get help.

Which character – as performed by David Stifel – was your favorite?

Lucien, of course!! Instead of falling into the all too easy trap of reading Lucien in a monotone 'uninterested British' voice, Mr. Stifel gave him the full range that the dialogue called for: crisp enunciation for irritation, almost a lighthearted lilt for playfulness, full commanding voice for anger, among others. Lucien is quite a colorful character, and Mr. Stifel performed him as the book described, "with a voice as smooth as cognac."

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, but real-world needs kept interrupting me!

Any additional comments?

Mr. Stifel's French accent isn't as good as his British one. Still, it was only in one small scene and did not detract from the story.

The Wicked One? wrrongly titled, imo.

Where does The Wicked One rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This was a great way to end the series. (I hope it is done). Somehow t got under the misconception that the patriarch of the family was was sick and dying. Luckily I was wrong
And of course, he got his woman. It s funny how wanton and wild the woman is. It is a bit tedious with the scenes are with the shenanigans that are pulled on each other.
