Sam's Creed

So, I'm going to start with the narration by Jason Adams. I tried listening to this book multiple times in the past and had trouble getting past the first couple minutes. Mr Adams' slow drawl narration just wasn't working for me. This time around, I decided to speed it up and oh that made a world of a difference. It's still not my favorite performance, but once it was moving at a somewhat more normal speed, it was tolerable.

On to the story, I listened to the first book in the series and I admit I was curious about Hell's Eight, so it was time to move on to book two. Book two followed along the same lines that book one did and now I'm realizing that this might not be the series for me. There's a lot of gratuitous, descriptive sex and not so much character or romance development. I kept finding myself spacing out while listening and not really caring that I was missing large chunks of the story. It wasn't horrible, but it just didn't have enough substance to really keep my attention. I'm not sure I'm going to continue with this series... past the fact I already have book 3 in my library.
