Summary

Sara Grey's world shattered 10 years ago when her father was brutally murdered. Now, at 17, she is still haunted by memories of that day and driven by the need to understand why it happened. She lives a life full of secrets, and her family and friends have no idea of the supernatural world she is immersed in or of Sara's own very powerful gift.

In her quest for answers about her father's death, Sara takes risks that expose her and her friends to danger and puts herself into the sights of a sadistic vampire. On the same fateful night she meets Nikolas, a warrior who turns Sara's world upside down and is determined to protect her even if it's the last thing she wants.

Sara's life starts to spin out of control as she is hunted by an obsessed vampire, learns that her friends have secrets of their own, and reels from the truth about her own ancestry. Sara has always been fiercely independent, but in order to survive now she must open herself to others, to reveal her deepest secrets. And she must learn to trust the one person capable of breaking down the walls around her.

So disappointed

What would have made Relentless better?

I could not get into the story as I found the narrators voice so boring with same tone for every character. She also talked very fast. I can only advise everyone to listen to a sample first. I wish I had as I would never have wasted my money buying this book. Total waste of money as these audio books are not cheap.

Would you ever listen to anything by Karen Lynch again?

Possibly if they use a better narrator.

Would you be willing to try another one of Caitlin Greer’s performances?

Definitely NO

You didn’t love this book--but did it have any redeeming qualities?

None. Disliked the narrator so much I could not get into the story so I gave up. Would return the book if I could.

Any additional comments?

Audio books states you can return a book if not pleased. Perhaps it’s me, but I cannot find how to return it.

Bit disappointed...

It was perfectly OK, but just so unoriginal... I'd read reviews saying it was the next Twilight, so happily dived in, but it was missing the chemistry, the intrigue and originality of Twilight.

So, fine if you're looking for your typical teenager paranormal fantasy, but if you've read a few of those already you'll be hard pressed to be excited by this one.

Brilliant book

I absolutely loved this book. The story was engaging. So much so that I listened to it in one day. It started a bit slow but quickly gained pace and had me captivated. I loved the main character, Sara, and adored Nickolas. The romance is a very slow burn but has me itching to read the next book. The only downside was the narrator. Her voice was was ok, but I found that she rushed too much for my liking. Plus, if I had a £1 for every time I heard her swallow, which is the first narrator I've heard do so, I'd be a millionaire. I'm disappointed that she narrates the entire series, which is strange for me. The fact that I'm willing to listen to the final two books with her narrating tells you just how good the story is.

Good book - flat narration

I’m a big fan of Karen Lynch’s Pawn so I thought I’d try this earlier series. The storytelling isn’t as tight as it is in Pawn, but it’s still enjoyable. The narration is disappointing, flat, with weird pauses - like a student reading a report of cue cards. This narrator doesn’t really do voices well either. It’s bearable, but could be so much better

Cringe but good story

Great story. Voice actor was great until any accents were involved. I physically cringed at the attempted Scottish accent in particular. Eek! Would still recommended this audiobook.

Demons and romances

A brilliant trilogy (this is the first book). Nice take on some of the normal fantasy fiction - I listened to all 3 books in a week. Would appeal to fans of people like PC Cast.

A brilliant start to a series.

The storyline and world building in this book were phenomenal, and it should have easily been a 5 star book.... but it had a few faults that held it back.

1) We get it, your friends are hot and 'you're not like other girls', but you a) don't need to mention it so much (we get it, we really do), and for me personally I don't enjoy the 'pick me' attitude that goes along with it. It's kinda cringeworthy.
2) The book gave way to some potentially harmful and not necessarily well researched stereotypes that kinda took me out of the books world a little.

That said, it was still a phenomenal books, Sarah and her friends were fascinating, the urban fantasy setting was fun, well considered and easy to keep up with - I didn't have any issues imagining or following the scenes.

I'm very interested to see where the rest of the series goes from here.
