Just one time please.Ī Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. I just want someone to punch Rhys in the mouth. Nesta is literally the only character with actual character. seriously, she seems like the person to not fw with this characters to begin with so this forced relationship that is already building with Cassian is not doing for me. Please!!! Another thing, she doesn't have to fall in love. I just want someone who knock them down a peg. I get it, they rule the joint, but still. Feyre and Rhys are ones who call the shots completely. But I know where this story is heading and it's going down the road the other books went down. Maybe Nesta could learn more about herself by being the independent woman she is and that she need helps. Forced relinquishing of freedom never sits right with me and I would love a story where Nesta deals with trauma her own way discovering something on her own while battling back the Night Court and her sisters. She had literally several story options and we choose the route of making her a prisoner because they don't like her lifestyle. Still in the beginning, but holy mother of God, are these characters insufferable. Sorry, I know this is harsh, and the author likely had no control over the final copy, but hoping it prevents someone else from enduring countless hours of torture. There will be a lot of refund requests on this. I don’t even remember most of the story because you can’t get past the overly dramatic ‘acting’. It was like a train wreck at times, you just couldn’t believe how bad it was. It didn’t matter if you increased or slowed the playback speed. My advice, if you are a Mass fan, is to buy the hard copy and save your eardrums. I’m not sure what happened, we all have off days. The author and this narrator appear to have worked together before, but the narrator sounds seriously impaired on this project. This is a long novel and many readers waited months for its release, so it is unfortunate that the audiobook was so disappointing. I feel badly being this critical of someone’s work, but it seems like the narrator was purposefully trying to sabotage the book. I would just recommend listening to the sample before purchasing the audio version. I’m sure Ms Nielsen is very talented and well regarded in her field. I really don’t like being negative or critical about an artists’ work. So yeah, it’s been very distracting to the story, which is SO unfortunate! It sucks when a beloved series changes narrators that may not know, or get the feel of the characters, or how the story has been told in the prior books. It’s almost like listening to something being narrated for very young children. I’m just not sure what happened here with the Major Overacting. I don’t mean to diss or be unfair to Stina Nielsen, I have listened to her narrate prior books that I enjoyed. My very sad and disappointed review is for the Audio version. I know how many Sarah J Maas Fans have been anxiously waiting for this book with high anticipation and hopeful expectations.I am one of them!! *sigh* My review is not for the book itself, as I haven’t gotten very far into the story. Where is Jennifer Ikeda or Amanda Leigh Cobb? And the key to halting them might very well rely on Cassian and Nesta facing their haunting pasts.Īgainst the sweeping backdrop of a world seared by war and plagued with uncertainty, Nesta and Cassian battle monsters from within and without as they search for acceptance - and healing - in each other's arms. Meanwhile, the treacherous human queens who returned to the Continent during the last war have forged a dangerous new alliance, threatening the fragile peace that has settled over the realms. The fire between them is undeniable and only burns hotter as they are forced into close quarters with each other. But her temper isn't the only thing Cassian ignites. The one person who ignites her temper more than any other is Cassian, the battle-scarred warrior whose position in Rhysand and Feyre's Night Court keeps him constantly in Nesta's orbit. Worse, she can't seem to move past the horrors of the war with Hybern and all she lost in it. And ever since being forced into the Cauldron and becoming High Fae against her will, she's struggled to find a place for herself within the strange, deadly world she inhabits. Nesta Archeron has always been prickly-proud, swift to anger, and slow to forgive. Maas' sexy, richly imagined series continues with the journey of Feyre's fiery sister, Nesta.
