Review 1: Power Game audiobook by A. L. Bray
Back to the original Ghostwalker feel!
I had gotten a bit put out over the last few Ghostwalker stories. The heroes were overbearing to the point of being verbally abusive, and it sickened me (I didn’t even read Spider Game because several reviewers made similar complaints). The sex was gratuitous and unnecessary to the plot (and was borderline abusive IMO). I don’t mind a steamy scene or two, but I don’t want it taking up over 60% of the book.
After waiting a few days to read some of the reviews, I decided to give CF one more chance with Power Game. I’m glad I did! This has the feel of the earlier Ghostwalker stories. The hero is alpha, but not disgustingly so. The heroine kicks butt on her own, but also accepts help without being a doormat or railroaded.
I’m also glad at least one long-time storyline has ended. I feel like CF lets series go on too long, sometimes, without any real resolutions. I feel like at least one loose thread got snipped with this story.
Finally, while Jim Frangione did a fantastic job with the narration, I really missed Tom Stechschulte. He’s the voice of the Ghostwalkers for me.
So, overall, I’m glad to say I can recommend this book to my fellow Ghostwalker fans. I feel like the series is back on track!
Review 2: Power Game audiobook by d.e.matthews
GOOD BUT NOT MY FAVORITE
I love Christine Feehan’s books and this happens to be one of my favorite series, however, this one just kind of fell flat for me. I didn’t feel the flow I am used to. It was a little repetitive in places. A statement would be made and a couple of paragraphs down, the same thing would be said again, sometimes using the same exact words and sometimes changed up a bit but meaning the same thing.
Now about the narration. First, I need to say that I am a HUGE Tom Stechschulte fan, that being said, I do try to give new to me or new to a series narrators a chance. Though
Mr Frangione does have a pleasant enough voice, I just felt that I was being read to and not being emersed in the story and transported into the
GhostWalker world. I listen with ear buds and all of the voices just sounded alike to me. The pitch in the women’s voices, though a touch higher, sounded the same except for
the accents. My biggest issue was
with the voice and Cajun accent of Nonny. Not what I expected. I understand all narrator’s have their own way of narrating, but I just wasn’t liking the change after so
many books into the series. Mr Frangione had some big shoes to fill
after us having had the pleasure of Mr Stechschulte expertise. I don’t know why the change was made, and I hope it wasn’t due to illness or worse on Mr Stechschulte’s part, and wish someone will let us know why a change was made. If this is a permanent change, I will still listen to future books, but, in my humble opinion, if it could been avoided, a change shouldn’t have been made.
