Interesting story, narration ... not so much

I rather like the setting and writing but the narrator made it hard if not impossible to enjoy the story. No noticeable distinction between charakters neither in accent or tone of voice. He's got a pleasant voice but gives the impression he'd really rather be doing anything but reading this book.
And to be honest I'd rather just keep reading the book and not listening to this. A real shame, it has much potential. The narrators style probably just isn't my thing but I couldn't bear to listen to this for more than 30 minutes.

Nope on the narrator.

The most annoying part was the pauses between sentences frequently being too short. Either he edited those parts together and completly misjudged the timing or he didnt see the period, but it was horrible for immersion.
The narrator also frequently misread words. I should have counted how many times "Princess Reyna" suddenly turned into "Prince Reyna". I'm not sure how that can happen unless the narrator himself isn't following the story.
Personally I'm a fan of different voices for different characters, at the very least slight accents, but sadly this narrator reads every character pretty much the same, which makes his overall terrible sense for reading pace even worse.
Had I read some of the audible.com reviews that also mention how hard this narrator makes it to follow along in the story I would have stayed away from the audiobook from the beginning.

I use whispersync quite alot, about 10 audiobooks in the last month alone, but this was the worst performance I can remember. At this point I wish Nick Podehl could narrate every audiobook.
Even though the book itself has quite the slow start, once you plowed through it, is rather interesting. Probably going to read most of the rest of the series instead.

Engaging story

The last fight scene was a bit lazy I found. It was all way too easy to defeat everybody and take the ring.

Not my kind of Book

In general the story is interesting, but the many lengthy fighting scenes are not my cup of tea. I am usually not a quitter, but in this case, I guess I will be and won‘t continue with the series.
And yeah, the narrator really could be better, put me to sleep several times.
