Publisher's summary
Raised among humans, Ori Jones only discovered he was an avian shifter six months ago. Unable to complete a full shift until he reaches his avian maturity, he still can't be sure of his exact species.
But with species comes rank, and rank is everything to the avians. When a partial shift allows the elders to announce that they believe Ori to be a rather ugly little duckling, he drops straight to the bottom rung of their hierarchy.
Life isn't easy for Ori until he comes to the attention of a high ranking hawk shifter. Then the only question is, is Ori really a duck - and what will his new master think when the truth eventually comes out?

Story
Pixies are supposed to be petite, beautifully lithe creatures with gossamer wings. Sporting luscious, ombre pink hair and fluttering pink wings, Phil meets two out of three of those criteria. At over six feet tall, no one would dare call Phil petite. As a home-and-hearth pixie, Phil yearns to find a home and family he can bond to. When no one's willing to hire a pixie of his stature, Phil is forced to find work elsewhere. Turns out, pixies make terrible bouncers.

Story
Xander Corey lives simply, sustainably, on the outskirts of Osprey, a small, quaint town in Upstate New York. He’s a librarian when the town’s budget can afford him, a good friend, kind neighbor, and also, a witch. And while that’s of no concern to anyone around him, there are others, non-humans, who have a vested interest in Xander’s family land. Xander knows something dark and dangerous is brewing. He’s just not quite sure what.

Story
Big City is supposedly the place where dreams come true. As someone just trying to live my life, I can tell you it’s more like a recurring nightmare where dreams get c*ckblocked at every turn. Especially if you’re a supervillain like me. The irony is that I have zero powers, despite coming from purebred villain stock, but try telling that to Big City’s beloved hero, Captain Masculine.

It’s really hard to pretend like life is normal when you’re staring a monster in the eyes, though he’s both tempting and irritating in his human form. I put my days as a hunter behind me, unable to cope with the death and pain anymore, to become an upstanding citizen and for what? To assist Lake, a man who claims he’s not a monster but keeps talking about me like I’m edible and–even worse–wants to woo me?

My whole life, I’ve been taught to despise shifters. So when I’m hired to track two escaped convicts, I’m suddenly thrust into the world I hate - or thought I did. Yet I’m inexplicably drawn to the alpha of the pack, whose land the convicts may be hiding on. He’s different than any shifter I've ever met - laidback and quick to laugh, caring, and protective. As secrets are revealed, I start to wonder if everything I’ve been raised to believe was a lie, though it may not matter, because it seems like someone wants us dead.

Maksim Lenkov is certain he’s not a good man. His father isn’t, and since Maks is his second in command, then certainly, he’s just as evil. The list of sins is long, and there’s no getting around that. What’s messing him up is that despite all that, in the midst of life and death, his only friend tells him he’s been a blessing, law enforcement is treating him like he prevented more bloodshed than he caused, and everyone is concerned with doing right by him. Why? And how is Maks supposed to figure out who he is when everything he thought he knew is suddenly turned upside down?

Smart men never dabble with demons. I never claimed to be smart, but at least, I’m powerful enough to control them. When I bound Havoc to me nearly 300 years ago, I never realized how difficult he’d make my life, although “accidentally” lighting him on fire every now and then does bring a smile to my face. Havoc is handsome, mysterious, and somehow, my closest companion, even if we don’t always get along.

Very blah
The main character has literally zero personality beyond his “submission” even tho he had life before he found out he was a shifter. The story was so one dimensional. Both the main characters are just frustrating

Unexpected
I did not expect to so thoroughly enjoy this book. I thought it would be a cute read, but it was so much more. The narrator is awesome as well. I've actually listened to this book 3 times now. It's one of my go-to stories I can just turn on and tune out.

Submissive shifter story, nothing else
This listen was good, I'd highly recommend it to anyone who likes a story about submission. And that's all it's about. There's no building of a world, except to define the avian shifter heirarchy. There's no mystery, no anticipation, and not much drama. It is a book about a relationship, period. That being said, it's an excellent book about a relationship. Duck! has detailed characters and great emotional content.

Didn't finish, unsure...
I am struggling with this review. I haven't finished the book, so I feel like I should reserve judgement, but at the same time I don't particularly WANT to finish it and that should count just as much.
First, I enjoy a power exchange story, even extreme Master/slave lifestyles. I can suspend my own personal desires in a relationship and recognize that the desire for truly D/s relationship can be legitimate and healthy. I find the dynamic interesting. I've even enjoyed stories where there's a power disparity between employer/employee and the like. In those stories the power exchange works when the parties are depicted as complex, well rounded characters who have personal value and identity outside of the exchange. then, when they choose to step into that dynamic there's truly power to yield to one another. This story irks me because Ori has no self-value or personal security AND Reinard hasn't done anything to reassure him that he HAS value and an identical beyond being perfectly submissive. Therefore, Ori isn't truly giving anything up or receiving anything in return. Even though he may be naturally inclined to submission and get some pleasure from it, which is totally great, that's not what is actually happening.
Or, at least it hasn't happened so far. I'm not encouraged by the fact that Reinard hasn't picked up on the fact that Ori has no self-value and or learned how to make him secure. Given the caste system of the Avion world, Ori's behavior seems pretty natural. So either Reinard is just a really dense Dom or this is the natural order of this in the Avion world and he never WILL understand Ori's insecurities and needs. I can't get past that.

Interesting...
Interesting story! I was not real sure what this book was all about but because I cannot seem to get enough of shifter stories, I was intrigued. The story of Ori and Raynard is an interesting one. The shifter dynamics, along with the submissive storyline took me a few to get into but as the story progressed, I found it predictable...not that, that is a bad thing. The underlying love that developed between the two protagonists was sweet and the angst added to the story. I liked the story, once I got into it.

Hierarchy
I found their dynamic interesting from the beginning. The Nest has really treated Ori terribly but it is clear early on that while Raynard is developing a different in charge attitude. It is also clear that while things happened to Ori at the next with Raynard is completely on board with the relationship they are developing. While Raynard irritated me at the big reveal I can almost understand his reaction given his rigid ideals. I like how you get to see Ori's own strength in getting what he wants and needs out of life.

My second time listening to this novel. Pure pleasures from beginning to the end. Every word melts in your ears. Dare describes the art of submission in such a delightful way. The story morphs into something so beautiful. Love her work!

Duck, Duck, Duh, Swan.
||Would you listen to Duck! again? Why?||
No. Based on the Amazon reviews I had a strong feeling I wouldn't like the book much, but it was in the Romance Package and I had a free month, so it seemed the perfect chance to listen to books I didn't expect I wanted to pay for. I love Shifter books so I thought I would see how accurate the other reviews were. Heed them.
||What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?||
Most interesting? A focus on non-wolf shifters. When it comes to birds, I think the only other shifter book I've seen is Control. And holy hell is Control good. So... yay, more birds?
Least? Passing off sex slaves as "submissives" and the most ridiculous premise with far too many holes that could have been dealt with. For one, Swans are revered. The second you see this title, you know damn well it's an Ugly Duckling to Swan story. So, if one type of waterfowl is revered, and another is treated like absolute dirt, who in their right mind treats an unknown waterfowl as dirt?? He could be a duck, a goose, or a swan. Even if it's a 1% chance he's a swan, why would they be horrible to him? You could try to solve this by removing the whole "half-shift" garbage. Just make it so the blood test indicated he was avian and they have no idea what he is. Then they would only know when he fully shifts. Granted, then you have every avian species under the sun that he could be. But at least that's better than him possibly being the most important avian species in their world. Or just make it so all unknown are considered the lowest until a full shift. Going "he's probably a Duck" when Swan is _an option_, in any regard, drove me absolutely batty. Of course, then it wouldn't be an Ugly Duckling story, but last time I checked The Ugly Duckling wasn't about sex slaves, so it's not like it had to follow a children's tale.
||Have you listened to any of Rod M. Maskew’s other performances before? How does this one compare?||
No, I have not. This was the first time I listened to one of his narrations. His performance was great for what he had to work with. He did an amazing job for such different characters.
||Who was the most memorable character of Duck! and why?||
Honestly, it was probably Everett, but that was more so because I had recently developed a character with that name so the association to it was strong. And he wasn't a slave master (in this book), or a sex slave with a pathetic outlook on life.
||Any additional comments?||
As most other reviewers have stated, the book is trying to be BDSM, or more specifically Domination/Submission, but is really just sex slavery. While it doesn't actually claim any ties to the BDSM world from what I can recall, the use of the term "Submissive" (and Master) is prevalent and does naturally lead one to that assumption.
This is not the case at all. Raynard owns Ori. Ori is a slave, not a servant, or playing a role for mutual enjoyment. He is a slave at the Nest and he is a slave to Raynard. While he is given the "choice" to be a slave or a "Submissive" there is no real choice. Raynard is in a position of such power over Ori that he really cannot say no. Raynard makes it clear he wants Ori to choose "Submissive" and uses Ori's attraction to him to influence the decision, making Ori think it is a good thing. After the decision is made, Ori has even less choice as this role of "Submissive" gives complete ownership and control to Raynard. There is no safe word. There is no ability to say "no". There is no break from a sexual game. There is no equality. It is straight up slavery and no matter how much they attempt to make it "okay" with turning their relationship into one of "love" it is just really gross.
Raynard himself is not a bad man, and clearly this is something that is rather common in their world. It is not him that is at fault for this aspect of the story, but the author's. I do not know if Dare simply had no concept of how a BDSM relationship actually works, or if she was legitimately trying to make sex slavery hot. And honestly, I've seen sex slavery made hot because they didn't try to make it something it wasn't. And it was in a time period where harems were a thing.
Another ridiculously infuriating thing is Raynard's reaction to Ori completing his full shift and everyone learning he is a Swan (expect Ori, for ages, which is also annoying). Raynard, who has made Ori dependent on him, who has trained Ori to think he is very important to him, who made him write 1000 lines of punishment about how precious Ori is as his "Submissive" buggers off. He sees Ori is a Swan. He goes "wah wah wah, I can't dominate the Swan Prince" and flounces off to have a pout. Ori's shift was painful, he was scared, he comes out of it and his "Master" is gone. He's been worried most of the book his full shift will reveal he is something Raynard may not like. And when he comes out of it, the one single person he has been trained to rely on and trust _is not there_. And then everyone just calls him "Sire" and not one goddamn one of them can say, "Oh, Ori. I'm so sorry about the mistake. You are a Swan. Since you were not raised among avians, I will tell you now that Swans are very important and very special. This must be a lot for you right now. Let us go put you somewhere to rest and we will go find Raynard for you right away because we all know how goddamn isolated you've been over the last few months and he's probably the only person you have interacted with since you left the Nest."
Hell, maybe the Eagle is the best character in the book because at least he mentally smacks the both of them upside the head and tells them that "royalty" can damn well be dominated if that is what they want, and you can have a damn DS relationship between "equals".
The relationships are infuriating.
