Excellent Conclusion To Florentine Saga!!

Great ending for William and Raven. Even great ending for Gaberiel and Julianne. Listening and Reading at the same time, the printed book was very different from audiobook, phrases changed, some sentences omitted. Audiobook better. The richness of the literature and history of Florence, Geneva, Prague, and other cities sighted in audiobook was very enjoyable. Love the cariture devolvement as spane over four books, some lovable, some pure evil, some a little of both. A must read. New narrator was fair needs to know the correct pronunciation of Beatrice.

Great End to a Great Series

I hated the change in narrator but he turned out to be really good and I could hardly tell the difference. Loved the ending.

Disappointed in how this last book was read...

So, I'm not sure why this whole book seems to be read in whispers, like if we had to talk in a library. I found it quite distracting. Also, how the narrator portrays William is a stark contrast to the first two books. This narrator makes William sound weak and not the intimidating, powerful age old vampire that the first narrator/ writer established. I like Robertson Dean narration in other books, but not so much in this one. I know they are busy narrating other books, but sometimes, especially in trilogies, they should really listen to previous books to get a good foundation to the characters.

Sylvain Reynard is my new favorite author

I loved it. I still feel like there should be more to their story. I hope Sylvain will give us more of William and Raven's story. My emotions were ALL over the place. I'll definitely listen again. I gave an earlier bad review of the narrator at which I am correcting now. I recently very sadly found out that John Michael Morgan, the previous narrator of the Gabriel's Inferno and The Florentine series had passed away before he could narrate The Roman. I unfairly gave Robertson Dean a bad review simply because he wasn't John Morgan. As I relistened, I began to enjoy listening to him without the irritation I had before. I realized I'd been very unfair.

Mesmerizing and intense!

William and Raven find that they have enemies at every turn. William seeks the help of his father, and Raven seeks only to secure her sisters safety, she seeks help from the one person she thought would help, only to find that he too would betray both her and William.

Exceptional!!!

A real love journey ! this book had me in tears . Such an amazing story.
The whole Florentine Series are a most read!!! I loved every single part of this book ..

Wow

Oh my god. I want more. I want more William and Casita. They need to have the story as the same kind.

Nice Way to Wrap Up a Series

I can honestly say this how a finale book should be written. I believe all of the major story arcs were concluded. William and Raven get their HEA, even though it might not be the HEA you expected... but that is not a bad thing. I love that Reynard snuck in little updated on Gabriel and Julia.

In my heart, the only detraction was the absence of John Michael Morgan. He has been the voice of Reynard's books since the beginning, and he brought a special snark and elegance that I simply became accustomed to expect. However, if I had never previously listened to JMM, then I would have said that Robertson Dean did a fantastic job. He really did differentiate his voice between male and female characters. I would definitely look out for other books narrated by Robertson Dean.

Beautiful ending

SR, You are simply marvelous! I couldn't be more happy with the wrap of these series! Thank you for sharing your talent and these phenomenal characters with us. I already miss them! Xo

Fantastic!

Just fantastic, as is every word Reynard writes. What a riveting story and a grand escape from everyday life. Reynard weaves an intricate plot with characters the reader comes to care deeply about. He took the story down unexpected paths, and I loved the ending every bit as much as I had dreaded getting to it because that would mean the story was over. And I suppose that's how it should be.
