Publisher's summary

My crew betrayed me.
Had me thrown behind bars and ripped away from the woman I loved.
Too bad, they underestimated my thirst for revenge.

This Christmas, I vow to paint these wintry streets with blood.
Make it all red snow.
But there’s just one problem.
Zuri.
The woman I was forced to abandon.
The one who still haunts my dreams.

Now, as the snow blankets the city in white, and revenge burns hot in my veins, I'm faced with a choice.
Do I follow the path of retribution?
Or do I dare to reclaim the love I lost?

Relationship

The AI stood out the most with the dragging voice and yes there were no emotions visible in this story. Although I can still visualize the characters and scenes they are much better with emotion and the different tones and voices

Great story, AI narration left me wanting

The story was creative, like John Wick meets Count of Monte Cristo. I enjoyed the arc of the main character Dante. AI voice narration needs work, but it didn’t put me off from finishing the story.

A nice Christmas 2nd chance story with edge

I warmed up to these characters and found it to be a sweet story. I blame the virtual voice for my lower rating as it took me a while to really get into the story, because inflection and pronunciation were off and it was distracting.The story is entertaining and worth a listen

Gripping

I enjoyed the story but not the reading. Too robotic with mispronounced words. It was very distracting.

Unfortunately the Narration

Liked the story and the two lead characters. Love, betrayal, some redemption and reunion made it enjoyable in spite of the narration.

I rooted for the bad guy!

Great storyline. On audible, the narration is done by AI. It’s not too bad. Certainly it’s odd to not have vocal inflections as you would expect, but it’s clear enough who is saying what and how they are reacting to the situation. Actual killings and a sex scene are muted due to the this format. But I kind of liked that.
For the full effect, read the actual book, which would still move quickly and hold your attention.
Overall, I’d say 3 stars for narration and 4 stars for the writing, character development, and storyline.

Enjoy this one

I was surprised how much I enjoyed this somewhat shorter read. The audio was ok for genAI.

Beautiful writting, but the AI was so dispassionate it harmed the narrative.

Great writting, horrible reading it made the beautiful ugly. I will definitely follow the writer, I will never listen to AI again.

Awesome story but horrible narration

The story is amazing! I hope there’s a part 2. The main character, Dante, is everything! I love that the entire story is from his POV. But the AI narration was horrible!!! It sounds robotic which is a real let down because the story is so good. There’s no emotion or inflection in the voices.
I hope Kenya does a redo of this audio book.
My advice would be to read the book and skip the audiobook.

good story but narration lacking

I enjoyed this Christmas story from Kenya Wright. I even could tolerate the AI narration, however it CAN NOT take the place of a voice actor. there was a lack of emotion in many parts and that's ehT makes for an enjoyable audiobook experience. overall it was good.
