Struggled to stay engaged

The story seemed so long winded due to the point of view shifts between characters around situations. Story okay. Narrators performance of female characters annoying.

Good work

This is my first foray into this author's work and I am happy I took the leap.
The writing is seamless and skilful with only a handful of typos. The characters are well defined and the story darkly interesting. Part of the action takes place in Romania. I am originally from there and I thought the author did a good job when it came to all things Romanian.
The story may seem unrealistic, but this is a supernatural tale with lots of twists and turns. It's really quite creepy and it keeps you on your toes.
I did find a couple of problems with the novel, but I won't voice them because it might affect and influence negatively with the overall readability of his work, (which is great).
Good work Mr. Edwards.

Disappointing..

I’ve read other books from this author which I have enjoyed, but this one was a disappointment. I did finish it but was extremely bored throughout and kept zoning out. Definitely did not keep me interested.

Sooooo Tedious -

Just so much useless filler. The idea is you’re driven to continue with the story to find out the big horrible truth at the beginning. And it’s just not worth it. It’s actually not that horrible... not compared to what I was imagining. There are some good twists but you have to suffer to get to them & they’re brief.
It might’ve been a great story if it weren’t for all the godawful waffling. The protagonist is so unlikable. There are actually times he speculates about things already experienced by the reader & speculated about repeatedly (also experienced by the reader) AND THEN thinks “that doesn’t matter now” and the reader can only say “no f****ng sh** - why have we spent so much time going over it you idiot f***wit?!”
I was most excited at the prospect of him being shot in the face - he thought “I deserve this” and I nodded emphatically, because yes, yes you do you boring stupid twat.
I had to listen to it sped up to get through. I would’ve been skimming a lot had I been reading.
The narrator was ok, but I couldn’t take the female characters seriously because of his voices. Sometimes I wish they wouldn’t even try.
