A Complex Tale of Paranormal and Sci-Fi

I was given a free review copy of the audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Because of the complexity of the storyline, I found that sometimes there was a little disconnect between one scene and the other. I'm impressed with the author's capacities to blend the various genres into one story. Not an easy task to accomplish. This supernatural, sci-fi, mystery, romance, technology, intrigue story, will keep your interest going but will also require keen attention in order to follow the complex plot and the many characters involved in the story telling.
The narration is fine, but lacks a little emphasis. Also I would have liked a little pause between chapters especially when the situations abruptly changed. It would have made following the storyline a little easier.
However if you take your time and pay attention, you'll definitely enjoy this audiobook.

really cool story

Really liked the story. narrator was a little bland, but charaters and story more than made up for it. Definitely worth a listen

Paranormal and scifi

This for me started of slow but it picked up later on but I found that this narrator did not suit this audiobook. The narrator in my opinion had a monotone voice. I would have liked a bit more feeling and unfortunately this let it down for me. If you can live with the narrator then this is a great audiobook.

Meh.

A really interesting idea, but the story is pretty disjointed and is frankly pretty hard to follow. When you do figure out what is going on, the story takes some dubeous leaps of plot and logic and deus ex machina to make it all resolve...sort of.

Book 1

Interesting enough that it was hard to put down. Has elements of paranormal and IF I investigators. Kept me enthralled.. Will definitely read more by this author.
