Captivating
I've only listened to three chapters so far and I am completely captivated. I can't wait to hear what happens next.
Highly recommended.
I am half way through the first book and am glad that more books follow. This is a hauntingly captivating story and the production is very professional.
Impressive!
This is by far one of the books I've listened to. Everything... the writer's style, the manner in which he performs, the plot... kept me hooked.
