About this listen

For years, Rex Mirza has been controlling every aspect of his twin brother’s life. Using the fact that Tavi is a magicless witch - a mere human - in a family of powerful witches, he has justified every harsh treatment. All of it is only for Tavi’s own good, of course. How could a human possibly know what was best for him?

When Tavi gets the chance to turn the tables on his brother, will he take it? Or will he take the punishment Rex says is due for trying to run away?

This is a dark taboo tale that contains several kinks that may offend or trigger some listeners, including (but not limited to) age play, ABDL, and humiliation. Not every dynamic or element is 100 percent consensual.

Well

This was definitely interesting. It's not for everyone as it deals with a taboo relationship as well as kinks and age play.

The story behind all that, though is pretty good and Kenneth Obi's performance is great as usual.

I can't wait to listen to book two of this series as well as check out the rest of the books from The Fate of the Fallen world.

Spectacular story, Kenneth Obi is at his best!

Want, the first book in R. Phoenix’s The Need Trilogy, lays down the foundation of the story of the Mirza twins. One born with magic and the other only human. With all the complex layers in this relationship, as well as the aspects of their personalities which are beginning to emerge, there’s a fascinating dynamic developing between the brothers.

Being a human man, Tavi has spent his life effectively enslaved by his brother Rex. When the opportunity arises to trade places, Tavi takes advantage and makes it happen. While maintaining the charade turns out to be another huge hurdle, Tavi is willing to explore every avenue to keep it going.

As the story unfolds, we get a fair idea of the treatment Tavi has endured under his brother’s care. While there’s no doubt Tavi consented to some of the things Rex did to him, the continual degradation and lack of control have had a lasting effect on his psyche. After years of having no power, becoming the caregiver and reducing Rex to total dependence just fuels Tavi’s craving to be the one in charge. And he likes it!

Looking through Tavi’s eyes, it’s impossible not to revel in Rex getting a taste of his own medicine. (I have to admit, watching Rex come out of his initial stupor and wrap his head around what’s happening to him is particularly delectable.)

R. Phoenix doesn’t pull any punches when exploring what each twin is going through. Exchanging roles impacts the foundation of every aspect of their relationship, and raises a host of emotions. They also have to come to grips with their sexual desires and all the sensations they’re experiencing.

Want is the perfect story to enjoy as an audiobook. There are so many nuances of this intriguing plot which are enhanced by Kenneth Obi’s wonderful narration. He infuses these unique characters with distinct personalities and brings them to life. Mr. Obi makes the most of the emotions in each twin’s voice as they process each development and discover aspects of their personalities they’d never have imagined. This is the kind of story which really lets Obi show his skill.

I’m looking forward to the upcoming release of the audiobook edition of Take, the next volume in this trilogy. I can only guess at the long term repercussions of the twins changing places, not to mention how their dark, taboo relationship progresses.

Amazing audiobook!

This is such a dark and kink story that I love. I think if you want to tried something on the Taboo side then you need to read or listen to R. Phoenix's books. Now with Kenneth Obi narrating this book just amazing!! He does such a great job I can't even tell you how much I love it. He takes a story and make a great story even better!

Revenge with ageplay

Well this was a real kinky one! Dark, taboo forced ageplay, so good! I loved the revenge and that the bad twin got punished properly.

Want...

Ok… So, I personally found this book fascinating.
But it definitely won’t be for all people. Or even the majority of people, it will push some to the edge or further from their comfort zones. But I do think that even if your not sure about this one, you should still give this book a chance. It might just open your eyes a little and you might, maybe just find you like it. It’s a deliciously dark, sinfully dirty, hot taboo and kink infused story. There are just so many dimensions to what we get described and outlined to us in this book. With the dystopian theme of a world where witches, vampires and werewolf’s rule over the humans. We get Twins that are so very similar in most ways but are still completely different in their thoughts feelings and actions. And we get some taboo/kinky ABDL and captive type scenes between the two men that are really well written as well.

Tavi has been a captive human slave to his witch brother Rex for years since he learned that he was not given the gift of magic. When Tavi is able to overthrow Rex and make him the prisoner instead the book takes a turn for the interesting. We get some ABDL themed scenes and some slight twincest which I am assuming we will see a lot more of in the next few books. But Tavi is determined to make Rex his, no matter how hard it is to keep from feeling guilty about his feelings and from keeping the truth of what he is doing hidden from the outside world..

I love how the author gives us just the perfect amount of information, not giving away the whole story and too many details while at the same time leading us into the next book (since this will be a Trilogy = 3 books). This was a fantastic start to this trilogy and I really look forward to seeing where this leads us in the next book.

Audio – I really liked the narration for this one. Kenneth always seems to know how to give us the perfect tones for each of the characters (even twins) & their personalities, blending them well with whatever scenes and events that are happening in the storyline at the time. Flawless performance for this book, well done..

Great if you’re into paranormal

The narration by Kennith Obi was fantastic however the story was not for me as there was to much of a focus one vampire, witches, werewolves and magic. But If you like those things get this book, you will love it.
