Unusal

The story was good, I was invested in the characters and wanted to see what happened next. The narrator did a good job.

Enjoyable

Fast paced, mysterious, violent, heart warming and full of wonder. Looking forward to the other two.

Enjoyable Read

I was surprised at the sudden twist in the storyline, it was all beginning to feel a little bit slow and dry but then whoosh, the real story began.

I finished this pretty quickly because I found out this was the first part of a trilogy.

Straigh onto the next installment shortly after a quick coffee break.

Thank you Tim Lebbon for your hard work and top notch writings.

I wasn’t sure, but then I was hooked

Fantastical content and engaging story. I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. The prologue left me with questions at the end, but I can forgive that. There are also some perspective jumps that left me momentarily confused too. But overall I really enjoyed it.

Very interesting story!

Very interesting story that sort of slowly unfolds and takes you through the underbelly of London and introduces you to another world.

Original Urban Fantasy

This is the first non Star Wars Lebbon novel I've read and it was thoroughly enjoyable. There are 2 main story arcs running through the novel, One is a standard missing person story when Angela's boyfriend Vince goes missing leaving cryptic notes saying not to look for him but takes nothing from their shared home. She realises that things are not all they seem to be when she goes to his office to find him to discover he has another life. As she digs deeper she gets exposed to whole other world in which Vince is a searcher out of 'Relics' (parts of mythical creatures -called the KIN) who she soon discovers are alive and well and living in London. The further she gets into this new world the more sides she finds, not all the KIN wish to remain hidden some want to live in the open, some humans are only after Relics some want to capture and torture living specimens, including a Angel that the KIN want to rescue.
In a desperate attempt to find Vince one side captures Lucy (Angela's best friend). Can Angela and her allies manage to save both the Angel and Lucy without getting caught?
The book grabbed me early on and moves along at a good pace, and the author develops a good range of characters that the reader can feel invested in. The action scenes are well written and there is an excellent amount of tension throughout the story.
Esther delivers good clear narration that certainly enhances the listening experience.

Not bad at all

The story was decent and the narrator for the main part for it right. Not a bad yarn really

Took me by surprise

This one was a gamble but it paid off.
Brilliant story, really well written, building things up perfectly.
Only slight niggle was the narration, some characters were very similar and got a little confusing at times.
