About this listen

All Ion Jacobs ever wanted was to be normal. But when you’re capable of killing with your very thoughts, it’s hard to blend in with the crowd.

Running from his past and living in fear of being discovered, Ion knows he will never be an average college student. But when Hawk, the beautiful, mysterious girl next door unearths his darkest secret, Ion’s life is flipped upside-down. He’s shocked to discover a whole world of people just like him; a world in another dimension, where things like levitation, shape-shifting, and immortality are not only possible, they’re normal.

Forced to keep more secrets than ever before, Ion struggles to control his powers in the real world while commuting between realms...until his arch enemy starts a fight he can’t escape. Now, he has sealed the fate of the Dimension, severing their connection to the real world, and locking himself inside forever. But a deadly threat hidden in plain sight may cost Ion more than just his freedom; It may cost him his life.

Good but needed another edit

Abbie's first book, 100 Days of (Sunshine or Sunlight) was 5 stars,a sweet, engrossing romance. This gets bogged down in description and is nearly purple in spots. Both characters narrate with 1001 gazes. They gaze as a noun. Their gazes burn and shoot and meet. They both gaze as a verb. There is a lot of gazing. Both characters end up sounding the same. One should gaze. The other could look or check out. Since they are born 100 years apart, Hawk should sound like she is from the 20th century. But the similarity and all the gazing, takes me out of the story. Surely an editor would have caught these things? Or maybe this book was edited by a different person? Whatever it is, I think the story and world were thought out with tremendous care.

The male narrator ra8ses the pitch of his voice for female quotes. It makes the female characters sound like Keye and Peele's, Meegan.

Great book and narration

Loved the narrators in this book. I’m glad I stuck with it as I had a hard time getting into it at first but so worth it. I’ll definitely be picking up book two.

gripping, I couldn't put it down

this book was fabulous. the story was well thought out, the characters were dynamic and alive, and I couldn't help but root for them. the plot and world building was spectacular and OMG I can't get the next book fast enough! the ending cliff hanger was to die for... won't spoil anything but I want to. the only thing was the voice acting could get a little annoying at times. it wasn't really the fault of the actors, but I think the casting could have fit the characters a little better?

Highly enjoyable when the story picks up

This is not a book I would typically read but I found it extremely enjoyable. It starts off a little slow, it takes a little while for the story to pick up. Once the story starts to flow, it becomes addictive and is tough to put down. The readers did an excellent job at bringing this story to life.

Wow... Wonderful listen!

I LOVED THIS BOOK!! It pulled me in from the very beginning and I didn't want to stop listening! Excellent performance from the two narrators. The author has created a solid plot, dynamic characters, and a colorful world rich with beautiful prose. The cliffhanger left me desperate for more! This series is a masterpiece.

picks up steam as it goes

Very slow at the beginning but the second half is gripping. The male narrator was a little over the top which was sometimes distracting. It is definitely worth sticking around for the ending.

I wanted to like it

But every chapter it was repeating the same thing over and over again never progressing in the story.

Would not get the second book even if it came out.

Voice acting was good though.
