Audiobook Reviews: The Queen of Attolia, The King of Attolia, Conspiracy of Kings by Megan Whalen Turner

Posted August 1, 2017 by Wendy in Reviews / 0 Comments

The Sound: As stated in my previous review of the first book, The Thief, I love Steve West! Will always be a fave narrator for me — so much emotion in his narrating! The Story: The switch from first person to third person POV caught me a bit off guard but it is necessary in this sequel as there are so many different things going on in different locations. I don’t think I disliked the POV switch itself but I just […]

Monty […]

I was introduced to the Great British Bake Off from my friends, Morgan among them, and was quickly in love! It made me SO hungry and also made me want to bake all the things!! Unfortunately I haven’t watched that many episodes of it yet because they got taken off of Netflix for awhile but I think […]

Audiobook Review: The Thief by Megan Whalen Turner

The Sound: When I saw that this series was going to be narrated by Steve West, I requested it asap! Steve West is one of my all time favorite narrators! He just does such a fantastic job not only with inflections but bringing each character to life. I am never lost in the dialogue. I think his narration adds another layer to the story. On top of all that, his voice is just so soothing to listen to! The Story: […]
