Protector

Night War Saga, Book 1

De: Leia Stone, S.T. Bende

Narrado por: Vanessa Moyen

Love. Honor. Protect.

As an environmental studies major, Allie knows the planet is in trouble - a series of natural disasters recently rocked the northern hemisphere, and species across the globe are going extinct. What Allie doesn't know is that her world's decline is a result of an ancient battle called the Night War - the Norse goddess Nott's crusade to control the weakest of the light realms. And Allie most definitely doesn't know that her existence is the only thing stopping Nott from dragging the earth into total darkness.

When four gorgeous guys show up claiming to be Allie's Asgardian protectors, she thinks they're delusional. And when they order her to hunt down the pieces of an immortal weapon, she's convinced they're insane. But when Allie's attacked, the guys' crazy stories of demigods and dark elves begin coming together. And Allie's not sure what scares her more - losing her life to the Goddess of Night...or losing her heart to one of her protectors.

Let the hunt begin.

awsome

great start to a series. I simply can't wait for the next book In the series.

Love love love this book 📚

I love this story. Nothing like a Norse mythology story to ignite the imagination. Another bad ass chick and her 4 sidekicks ( 4 hot sidekicks). I would recommend to all my friends. The narrator did a fantastic job with the characters. I like her style.

Love it

Action packed love the story. Excited for the rest of the series and love the strong female character.

ready for book 2

I really enjoyed the book in terms of overall storyline, but wasn't a huge fan of the narration. While the main character IS fairly young, I felt like the narrator made her seem downright juvenile.

Good story, lousy naratpr

I just can't finish this book, the story is good, needs a bit of clean up maybe but the "narrator" sucks the life right out of this. She's READING the book, has no imagination about the voices, she's not trying. Ruined the book for me.

meh...

kept listening but throughout it felt like it was a poorly written tween book. The narration was too teen sounding, high pitch. i slowed it down to 75% to get through it. Rainbow bridges, sleep curses and some Nordic mythology. Not the worst not the best.

Great Book But...

The book itself was really enjoyable. It kept a good pace throughout and I ended up growing quite an attachment to Allie's four protecters. However, liking them was difficult at first because of the narrator. She made them all sound like Zelda Rubinstein mixed with a dwarf that's suffering a cold; and these guys are supposed to be ultra hot demigods! So as you can imagine this is a really odd mix to try to imagine. I finally managed to get past it when I decided to just imagine them as various rolls of Chris Hemsworth ;). Another thing that the narrator did that drove me crazy was when ever the main Zelda Rubinstein (AKA Tori, the hottest of the bunch) would talk, he would talk in fast forward - seriously super fast. Even if he was being romantic; he would say it so fast in that raspy girl voice it didn't really have a chance to sink in. Other than that it was a great book and I can't wait to read the next one (and I'll make sure to READ it so maybe the characters will have a chance to redeem themselves from the slaughter of their supposed sexy voices!)

funny sweet and lighthearted warrior gods

gotta love this light hearted reference to mythology, a young goddess and her troup of merry men.

hated the performance

I might have rated this better but the preformer killed it for me. the way she ended each sentence with finality drove me nuts. the pause as if she was done reading.

Good storyline

I've listened to all 3 books. I think the storyline is ok, but could use a lot of improvement. This story had a lot of potential to be amazing, but falls short in areas. The main character prays saying "Dear Universe...." and at first it was funny but it happens A LOT and it's super annoying, especially by book 3. I also feel like this character, who is in her early 20s, is very childish. This book does a decent amount of foreshadowing, but it falls short on following up on it.

As for the voice actors for this book, she can be a little monotone during emotional parts. For the most part, she does do a decent job. I have listened to other books that she has read, and she does the same job as the others.
