Publisher's summary

This Ravyn has the soul of a hawk.

My name is Ravyn. I'm a human soldier in a Fae army of shapeshifters run by a warlord. I'm a simple man; I like the three Fs—Feasting, Fighting, and Fu- well, you know the last one. I don't have many expectations for my life beyond those things and that's just fine by me. But when two fae amulets are stolen and only a human can retrieve them, my warlord asks me to help. He is the Hawk Lord—honorable, brave, terrifyingly powerful, and hot enough to set my pants on fire with a single look. That look was all it took to get me to agree to one of the most dangerous missions of my life. What I didn't know was that he'd be accompanying me, watching my back as we crept through the continent of Alantri—land of the monstrous Farungal. Nor did I know that our mission would bring us together in the most unexpected ways. The Hawk Lord is so much more than I thought. Stronger and more heroic, with a soul more beautiful than his face But he also has a darkness inside him, one that could bind us together forever or tear us viciously apart. To survive his love, I'll need the heart and soul of a hawk.

The Hawk Soul is a steamy M/M fantasy based in an epic world of sexy fae shifters, terrifying monsters, and thrilling love that will have you laughing, crying, and begging for more!

Love the story!

This was a great story! And the virtual voice wasn't bad theres a few instances where it sounded “glitchy” It would have been better if read by a person. But the storyline was entertaining and held my attention!

Good book, terrible reading

I like this story. I've enjoyed it on Kindle, so I tried the audio version. The virtual voice is the worst style I ever heard. There's no inflection, the voice is monotone. A real reader, aka a quality voice actor, would have accents and tones. Different voices to distinguish different characters. It would understand the basic difference between a shout and a whisper and emotions. An actor would add to the story by creating an experience. This rendition is a waste of time.

The story is good

The story is a pretty good one. However, virtual voice is crap. It’s just saying words no feeling and weird inflections. If a human read it id have gave it a better review.

Love the series - hated the narration

I have been looking forward to this series being audiobooks, but I wish it was an actual narrator. The cadence was off. The emotion of the story was off. It was the same voice for all characters which made it difficult to determine who was speaking. Please consider releasing this series with an actual narrator.

liked it but...

I really wish this had an actual person reading it. The virtual voice is terrible. I would just get into the story then it would pull me out with something with a very weirdly pronounced word, or some really strange emphasis on the dialogue. People just don't talk like that.

Too Much Abuse

I have enjoyed some of Amy Sumida’s books, thanks to the fact they’re included in my subscription, but this one is really just rough sex and abuse. Where’s the story?
The virtual voice is tolerable, but I would never pay a credit or money for a book narrated this way.
