Epic

It took me a bit of time to adjust and get used to the narrator but as soon as I got used to his voice I settle and connected with the story. There’s some really beautiful wording/quotes to start this book off that really stood out to me. What got me intrigued to begin with was the ‘Amoret’ sign so I got excited to what will happen to fit the title of the book. I wasn’t aware that this was a follow up novel so this is probably why I initially got more confused about what was going on. Don’t get me wrong I loved the feel of the era and the character build up I just didn’t feel like I could connect straight away to the main character.

It’s really interesting when you reflect back in time to how people like doctors really came across they were town and villages lifelines and you get that impression from a few instances that occur early on in the story. I was taken back by the twists when they kicked in and how this turned around to the doctor becoming a suspect. I also felt a little bit silly when I realised Amoret was actually in fact a place. The mystery that occurred was adventurous and I did eventually fall for the Texas accent that was flowing through my ears. I did have to think twice with what El Paso was too.

Although I didn’t love this audio I did think it did a great job at attempting to catch my full attention it just wasn’t the right audio for me. I think this is a book I would’ve appreciated reading more than listening to. However I have to say the author is great with the detail and bringing the setting to life for you to visualise.
