I'd forgotten how good Jacob's book was, great introduction to the Nightwalkers series.

I didn't think they would feel as different and yet similar as they do, but they do (if that makes any sort of sense).
So glad you're enjoying it!

I'm enjoying Jacob's book very much, I'm almost finish, this series only gets better and better. This a great way to re-visit or to listen to for the first time. Great male voices.

Just prepping "Elijah" now - start recording on Monday. I love the initial scenes of that one!
I wasn't crazy about
, by Ruth Rendell, narrated by Nigel Anthony;
way
too many characters (some sounding similar). Hard for me to like Wexford since he has no sympathy for his daughter being abused by her boyfriend b/c she was a social worker and "knew better." Huh? It crosses all socio-economic groups.Just started
. Love dogs, so hopefully this one will be good.

-- it's good!
Just letting y'all know about a giveaway I am doing of The Fallen: Demon audiobook - written by Kristina Douglas and narrated by me! I'm giving away 3 mp3s and 1 CD version of the book. Just comment on the giveaway post at my site http://karenwhiteaudiobooks.com/ before Tuesday July 12 at 8am PST.

"Great, entertaining listen, Susan Ericksen(narrador) is just superb!
Mod
Great giveaway! The first book in this sereis, Raziel, is my next listen. I've read the protagonist in this book is a bit of a dark hero, that's right up my alley.
I haven't been listening to many audio books this summer, but I'm finally getting a chance to listen to
and I'm loving it so far. Think I will try to get the rest of the series on audio...

Isn't that the truth? I wouldn't put up for a second with some of this guys...lol, I don't know where the attraction comes from. Never mind, I do. I'm big fan of redemption.

I have that one lined up next also, Christine!

Gracious! How do you do that? Do the stories mingle in your head?
Currently listening to
and it is a great story! Wow!
Mod
, This really good, great narration.I'm now listening to :
and be carfull what you wish for, I always wanted a male narrator for male parts, but in this case I wish Karen White(she's great) was the only narrator, I'm having a real hard time with the male narrator.

Yes, she is doing a great job. I think that really helps the book too. The villain is really evil, though. Ugh!
Lupdilup wrote: "God bless you girl! and I thought I was the ultimate audiobook junkie.. LOL, but I bow!..."LOL Lupdilup! And that list was just the current audio books I was working on. Didn't include eBooks and print books. :-) I LOVE audio books. I'd read only a small fraction of what I get through in a year now if not for audio books.
Xe wrote: "Gracious! How do you do that? Do the stories mingle in your head? ..."Nope. I've never had a problem keeping the stories straight in my head. Just like any kind of multi tasking. I compartmentalize what I'm listening to/reading at that moment.
Mod
Listening to Dragon Bound and next to Gideon.
I don't know how much listening I'll be able to do
I'm away on vaction :D
Lupdilup, let us know how you like the audio version of
, I've been seeing a lot of good reviews for the book & have added it to my tbr pile.

I just put
on my Nook and I'm getting ready to start readign! I'll be curious to see what you think about the audio.I just finished
and I just picked up
from the lib. and getting ready to start. I'm so excited about this one!
Great, ♥Shellbelle♥! Looking forward to hearing what you think of

, I've been seeing a lot of good reviews for the book & have added it to my tbr pile."I finally finished listening to this book(I was on a family trip, costantlly on the go with the hubby and daughter).
I have to say, I liked it so much more when I read it, the narrator did an ok job,(it wasn't bad)and actually she did an excellent job with Pia(the heroine) but I wasn't to happy with the overall tone of the story, I think I would had liked it a lot more if I've not read the book before I listen to it. I would recommend the audio, but not after reading the book.
- it is really good, and well narrated; however, I must admit I have referred to my hardcover copy b/c there are so many characters.

After I thought about it little more, I think the audiobook was pretty good, I just didn't like the way one of the characters was narrated, really not a big deal, I'm always more critical when I've read the book before I listen to it.

I'm currently listening to
.I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve read this one; thought I’d try the audiobook this time. So far enjoying the narration by Rosalyn Landor.
Currently listening on my iPod touch
....it's very intense!!
I'm also listening to
in the car; however, I don't drive much, so we'll see how long it takes me.

Is it about the same girl...did not know there was a sequel???
Dorsey wrote: "Is it about the same girl...did not know there was a sequel???..."No it's not about the same woman. I didn't realize the two books were connected until I saw something written somewhere about it. The two books are connected through the psychiatrist. I don't even remember her name being mentioned in the first book but the main character in the second book goes to the same psychiatrist as in the first book.

Oh okay....makes since. Do you like so far?
Mod
Ghosts? And not very nice ones. Romance?. I have to say the main romance was
ok, I did get how much they love each other. I liked the characters, but I had to
admit I had a hard time feeling the romance, I was a little spooked with the
ghost’s parts, I always listen before going to sleep, hard to feel the
romance, when you scared (I don’t do
ghost’s stories)..lol, but I did find the book very entertaining, and all I can
say is Angela Dawe did a great job with the narration, I was most definitely spooked...
( she did a great job with all the characters and the story)
Dorsey wrote: "Oh okay....makes since. Do you like so far?..."I'm not very far into it yet but so far it's good.
