Wonderful Story, Poorly Told.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

As much as I love these books in their printed form, I was terribly disappointed by this format. While I would gladly recommend this series to a friend in its written form, I would be a poor friend indeed if I inflicted this format on anyone I considered a friend. Unfortunately the narrator spoiled this whole series for me, making the story feel flat, and many of the characters sound ridiculous, or like something from a comic book.

What did you like best about this story?

Again I use the written format to respond to this question, as this format was ruined. The thing I liked best about the stories was the varied characters, and the depth that Gail Z. Martin gave each of them, without spending thirty pages describing them.

What didn’t you like about Gail Z. Martin and Peter Ganim ’s performance?

NOTHING!!

Do you think Dark Lady's Chosen needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

I happen to know that two further books were published to round out this series, but as yet are not available in audio format. If they are ever translated into audio, please DON'T allow Peter Ganim to narrate them.

Any additional comments?

This is one of my favorite series, and it was totally ruined by a poor narrator. I freely admit that I am dreadful at reading aloud, but I have the kindness and good grace not to inflict my inadequacies on others

Narration should be redone

Narration was very poorly done. Characters were voice crossover, choppy in delivery throughout the series. Love the story but delivery is bad.

Highly Recommend the whole series!

I had absolutely NO issues with finishing the entire series. Loved this as books (when I want the feel and smell of a real book in my hands) and loved the audio version just as much (for those times when my glaucoma won't cooperate). The story through out is intense with a lot of action and intrigue! HIGHLY recommend the series. Start with the Summoner, the books should be read in order.

the villian is way to easy to see

need to make sure the readers can't guess who the villian is within the first 10 chapters it takes a little our the main plot and makes the side plots seem more important
