Everlasting

The Night Watchmen Series, Book 1

By: Candace Knoebel

Narrated by: Rebecca Hansen

What if your destiny lay on the other side of death?

The annual Culling ceremony is a day every coming-of-age novice looks forward to within the Primeval Coven. It's the start to being initiated into the Night Watchmen, humankind's protectors, and it's the long-awaited day when novices discover if they're a Hunter or a Witch.

But this day is not a happy one for Faye Middleton. Not when she's known her whole life that she's a Defect and is about to face banishment in front of her fellow novices. She's forced to attend the Culling with little hope for her future, but what she discovers about herself is far worse than she could've imagined. And far more dangerous.

Thrown into training and separated from her friends, Faye must learn to adjust. She struggles to find her place within the Coven, and with Jaxen Gramm, the darkly handsome and extremely unnerving man assigned to watch and protect her. Emotions run high, and when she discovers a deadly secret about him, her struggles deepen. As corruption within the Coven begins to unravel, Faye pieces together her role in saving the future of her people, and within Jaxen's life...but will the truth save her, or be her undoing?

Just Read the Book - Narrator is the worst

Would you try another book from Candace Knoebel and/or Rebecca Hansen?

I will look for other books by the author but will never buy another audiobook read by Rebecca Hansen. Had to stop the audio playing and just read the book on kindle.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Faye was a likable character and mature for a teen.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Narrator sounded like a computer generated voice. She could have been reading the phone book for all the inflection and emotion that was expressed.

Any additional comments?

A good book that suffers from a terrible narrator. I like audio books and will try again with the series if they switch narrators.

Witching hour

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, the story was a really good view on another possibility of how things could be done in the witching world.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favorite character must be Jaxen. Who doesn't love the hero in some stories?

What does Rebecca Hansen bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She helped me give the characters voices. I know if I picked up the book, I would hear her voices in my head

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

If I could, yes. I really enjoyed the story line and wanted to find out what happened. When it ended, I wanted it to continue on.

Any additional comments?

This audiobook was provided by the author/narrator/publisher free of charge in exchange for an unbiased review.

can't wait for the next one

I was gifted this audio ARC from the author for a honest and unbiased review
Everlasting it’s one of those books either in hand or listening to, that draws the reader in right from the start and is hard to put down. Candace Knoebel has taken the witch concept and put her own unique spin on it, creating a brilliant story. Everlasting is loaded with action,mean girls, secrets, paranormal beings, sexy men, and even a little romance.
This first book in series is a great starter can't wait to get the others.
If you are looking for an action packed witch story, then you should definitely read/listen to Everlasting.
Unfortunately in this reading Rebecca Hanson didn't live up to her normal reading. I can only give you a 3.

Enjoyable story

Would you listen to Everlasting again? Why?

Yes I would very much so

Which scene was your favorite?

Everything, the good, the heart wrenching

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Rebecca Hansen did not do a very good job on the narration of book

Any additional comments?

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher

Great story!

I don’t usually read many books from this genre, but I really enjoyed this one. The narration brought the story to life and held my interest throughout. The story was well thought out, complete and will keep you listening. I will definitely be watching for this author in the future.

* I was provided a free copy of this book from AudioBookBlast for review.

Good story, HORRIBLE narrator

What made the experience of listening to Everlasting the most enjoyable?

The most enjoyable was the story itself. I really enjoyed the actual plot, but the narrator had an almost robotic whiny voice! It was absolutely dreadful. It made it very difficult to get through the book. I'll be returning it because of that.

What did you like best about this story?

What I liked best was the world that the author made.

Would you be willing to try another one of Rebecca Hansen’s performances?

As long as it didn't have the same narrator yes.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I would've if the narrator wasn't so whiny and robotic

Any additional comments?

Please please please change the narrator for the second book!

Everlasting

If you could sum up Everlasting in three words, what would they be?

Everlasting is filled with suspense, romance, and paranormal. It begins in a stereotypical manner, with a teen girl knowing she's a failure, dreading banishment, only to find out she's super special. The first part of the book drags due to this internal struggle, then the story picks up as the story progresses.

Enjoyable story!

What did you love best about Everlasting?

Everything, the good, the heart wrenching.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Everlasting?

The fight in the cafeteria.

Which character – as performed by Rebecca Hansen – was your favorite?

Faye Middleton (main character)

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, listened to it on a 5 hour drive, and wanted to listen longer.

Any additional comments?

I now must get the other books in the series lol...

I received this copy free from Audiobook Blast in exchange for an honest review. (First time ever getting something for a review)
