Let’s get into these tiny reviews/gushing about the books!Ī library apprentice, a sorcerer prince, and an unbreakable magic bond… Elise is an incredible writer, and I never have any issue seeing what she’s describing, and all of her characters are unique, but actually hearing them come to life, it blew me away, and I want a Netflix Show, animation, anything, something I can watch about these books.īut, enough said. I really do think that listening to the audiobook version of the books offered something new to the story, and I think the woman who read them did an amazing job at bringing them fully to life. It was just so cheesy.Īnd I actually fell for a different character that I don’t remember falling or feeling for in my first time reading – that would be Daniel. And again, maybe it was just the audio books, but damn, I could not stop rolling my eyes every time he said it. I also have an issue with his phrase of endearment for Vhalla later in the series. The major one being, I now have this love/hate relationship with Aldrik. But there are some things that I’ve come to realize. My ratings for these books haven’t changed from the first read to this re-read, because I still absolutely love them. This time reading through these books, I noticed some things I didn’t notice before – or maybe it was because I was listening to them, rather than seeing the words on the page. Maybe if I hadn’t been bingeing them it would have been different, but it was too jarring and the names didn’t sound right, so I switched over to my physical copies. I didn’t listen to the fourth, because for whatever reason, there was a new narrator and I didn’t care for her (she wasn’t bad) after listening to another woman give voice to the characters for three books. I listened to the first three through Audible, and I highly recommend it, they are so good.

This has become one of my favorites, and I actually hadn’t planned on re-reading them, but then I decided why not and went for it. I’m so glad Facebook advertised this book/series to me.
