Perhaps a little too abridged

I bought this book specifically because I had a mundane task to do that would take 3 hours. The reader did an excellent job with characters and accents, the book was a nice light read, and filled the required time-slot.

But, this book was almost too short. I couldn't help but feel the romance would have been sweeter, and the characters a little more sympathetic had this not been chopped down so much. The romance was there, it certainly wasn't a unique or grand romance (just the usual types of plot devices that one sees in many romances), but I didn't expect much more than this. I think I might rather have spent my book credit on something with a little more substance. But if you are looking for a fast and light listen, then this is your book.

(A warning -- main characters in this book are followers of the the ancient order of Vanza, so if you are a stickler for "keeping it real", you might find this little add on of supernatural-kung-fu-meets-mysticism all a little goofy.)

I have enjoyed most of Amanda Quick's work...I just wish this one wasn't abridged.

Good listen

I like the unabridged books best so I would have prefered to hear the longer version of this book. The reader was very good and it was a great way to pass 3 hours. I love Amanda Quick so if you like her books you will like this one.

Great Read

I always enjoy stories by Amanda Quick. This story was so fun to read that I stayed up all night to finish it.

love this book.

I've have read this book 2 and bought the audio version to listen in my car. The reader was perfect for this story.

Good for an Abridged edition

The narrator does a wonderful job with the story, but a lot is cut out.

This is an abridged but first in the Vanza series.

Abridged version but paid $4.95 so I got what I paid for. If you want the full version look for the full copy.

Wish this one was longer.

love it!

Many years ago I listened to this novel while I was painting in the heat. Loved it so much, I started it again upon its completion! Just as good today. Fast paced, hokey, interresting, fun!

I Thee Wed

I am an avid romance reader who subscibes to the Mills and Boon Harlequin Club.I also download e- books to read on my laptop.
