the reader mispronounced Celtic...

the audiobook reader mispronounced important words and this made it through production. She pronounced the word Celtic like the sports team which is NOT how you pronounce it when refering to the people or the languages. there were other issues with the reading but that was the straw that broke the camels back for me.

Story is decent but the accents utilized are...not the best to say the least. Some of them seem to be entierly decided on a assumeptions based off characters names, one named Dallas has a badly done Texan accent as an example. The voices for the under 18s are even worse, the 13 year old sounds like a toddler with a lisp.

if you are bigot this one isn't for you.

with that out of the way, this series has become a personal favorite i have listened to dozens of times. the plot hides little gems of information relevant in the later books and there are several mysteries that stretch through the current 3 books in the series, some have been resolved by the 3rd book others are plots in progress that i hope the next two books already in production deal with.

the characters are multi dimensional, with the good and the bad that comes with being human... even when those characters aren't. there are misunderstandings between family and complicated love of each other. these are not your cookie cutter heros and villains, there is complexity in their makeup. while there is a romance, there is no on screen sex. it's just not relevant to the plot where the emotional aspects take center stage.

the plot isn't any less complex than the characters with multiple plot lines tangled together that must be unraved before they can make sense and be resolved. threads reaching backward to the begining of the universe and reality and some tied to historical events in the US.

this is an intricately woven story with complex and very human characters that hate and love with passion.

forgiveness is not a given, some crimes are too great.

the only sympathetic character is the Duke. everyone else is awful, the twins are deceitful and pretty abusive and blame everything on the Duke who never even wanted to do any of this.
