I really enjoyed the story and the creative supernatural elements. Supernatural stuff can feel a little old to me and over done, but the authors have some unique ideas. I also very much appreciated that the authors chose to stay true to the characters, making them flawed and realistic for a group of people that operate outside the law and outside socially accepted behavior. As the reader, you won’t get everything you think you want but you will still be satisfied with what you get.
These books are SPICY! I may even say it was a little too spicy at some points. It kinda slowed the story down when I just wanted to know what happens next.
Speaking of pacing, there are a few spots that the pacing feels like it slows down in the 3rd and 4th book but it picks up and flows well into the 5th book.
Joel Leslie is a favorite narrator for me and he does a really great job with these characters. Some of the voices are a little similar but as an Australian performer I can’t knock him for that. It’s a feat that he does all 73+ hours in an American accent and still has enough range to vary the voices.
All that said, it’s worth the listen and right now it’s included in the audible library. If you like it spicy and supernatural, this box set is for you.
