the story is good but what happened to Sam the narrator that narrated the rest of the books? I miss lennox's deep voice and I miss the sounds of the rest of the characters voices,everybody's voice just doesn't sound right it's throwing off the whole storyline for me. I really hope for the rest of the books series Sam the narrator that did all the rest of them from the beginning comes back. because it needs that deep voice that Lennox has along with the rest of the characters voices. I also miss the sound of foggy barking.

great book I like the fact that Percy and Florence are involved and it is well. It would be great to bring them in as other characters with Swift and Lennox. It gives a good balance to have them there. and it also shows that women during that time period are just as strong and smart as men are.

Ok series
Reviewed: 01-16-25
it is a good series. But Electra needs to not act like a child she is obviously in her twenties and being a safe cracker thief you would think there would be a little more backbone in her. she needs to speak her feelings about how she feels instead of pushing him down and not even stating them at all. I like the character major Ramsey but keeping his character so much of a stick in the mud is getting old. I hope eventually the to do get together but I feel like it's taking forever we're now going on to the 5th book. I do look forward to book five to see how things go but something needs to change and book five.

The books go on and on and on. If there is going to be that much description then when the story is done give some history of what is happening during those times. And why is Penny strong one minute and the next she is a weenie. Don't make her a weenie. keep her strong.

I don't normally listen to books that are of todays period but I really love this book. Enjoyed the story line and the carter's. I hope they come out with a sequel. It would definitely be worth it. With this story line and the carter's you could come out with many more books. Thank you for a really good book.
