Good versus Evil

I would have given the book a 5 but really do not like the time period (Kings and Queens). I enjoyed the concept involving the werewolves and vampires, good and evil. The narrator saved the day for me. Really liked the Orphans by Mike Evans. I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast dot com. Thank you!

Different take on common story

I received a copy of this audiobook from the author in return for an honest review.

The story is an interesting variant from the common storyline. I found it interesting to see the direction it took.

The narrator has an awesome voice but his narration could have served to draw the listener in more completely if it had been less formal and more relaxed. Unfortunately this detracts from the overall presentation. Hopefully that can be improved for book two in the series.

another great book by a great author

S.W. Salman, did a excellent job narrating this book. I loved every part of this book. I actually love all the books by this Author.

Damn great listen

Mike Evans has nailed it out of the park.
I usually listen to books at night before i sleep. i was up for four hours the first night. I couldn't turn it off because I needed to know what was coming next. I loved it.

vampires vs werewolves

I loved the fight between the vamps and weres!
such a good story and a great job on the narration!

Almost the best of his books!

I got this for free, and all I say is my thoughts! I am always honest!

So Mike Evans are a really good author, and I really like his style of writing. This is a fun way to start your relationship with Mike. S. W.Salzman really reads this like a pro! His voice fits the book, and it's a 4 out of the 5 is a high score! Enjoy the book.

Great job.

One of my first audibles and I thought Shaun Salzman did a bang up
job. Great story, good characterization , easy to understand. I really enjoyed it. Re iew for the book is on Amazon.

Vamps vs Weres? Yes please!

Sort of a different take on Good vs. Evil, especially with the medieval, supernatural aspect. Looking forward to the rest of the series in audio, as Salzman again proved worthy of one of my favorite authors. I binge-listened all day!

Mixed bag

Would you try another book from Mike Evans and/or S.W. Salzman?

Yes

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Yes

Was Deal with the Devil worth the listening time?

Yes

Any additional comments?

For the most part, I liked the book. There were times were the narrator's sounded like he had something in his throat. It did get a bit repetitive with how the author wrote the conversation parts (Anton said ..., Joseph said ...).
