Reseñas de la Crítica

"In Feehan's latest paranormal, sizzling sex scenes both physical and telepathic pave the road to true love for brilliant billionaire scientist Lily Whitney and Captain Ryland Miller, the leader of a squad of psionically gifted soldiers who have been imprisoned and separated from each other after receiving life-threatening enhancements. When Lily's father called her in to consult on a top-secret project he was working on for the government, he had no idea that he was signing his own death warrant or that his beloved daughter with her psychic talents would witness his murder and become a target for the traitors who were bending his project to their own evil purposes. Ryland lends his psychic strength to Lily and ignites a passion that brings him and his men into her high-security estate. Action, suspense, and smart characters make this erotically charged romance an entertaining read." ( Booklist)

Awesome Book!!!

I love this series and was so glad to see Shadow Game, which is book 1 in the GhostWalker series, was finally picked up for audio. Shadow Game sets up the whole series about Doctor Peter Whitney who experiments on men to make the perfect commando team that can work together, talk to each other without speaking, have paranormal powers like being able to make guards look the other way, blending in with the background and control over animals. They also have super hearing and can see in the dark. When Dr Lily Whitney, Dr Peter Whitney's daughter, who also has the same type of powers as the men, is brought in on the project, she wonders if her father is a genius or a madman. Of course there is a love story as well that will blow your mind.

The narrator, Tom Stechschulte, is a brilliant choice for this series. He has a different voice for each of the GhostWalkers (the team of men in this series), and having listened to the other books in this series, he keeps the voices true to each character, in each book. Awesome!!

Christine Feehan is such a good author and I always have a hard time waiting for her next book to come out, no matter which series it is in. I really loved this book and will listen to it again and again.

Can't go wrong!

First of all you have an author like Feehan who is consistently great. Her books are well thought out and the characters come alive. I have re-listened to her book more times than I can count. They are a soulace when I do not want to be discouraged. I retouch them weekly! The narrator, Tom Stechschulte, is so good I have purchaed book read by him and not knowing at all what the book is about. Though Feehan is a great author the combonation of Stechschulte is astounding! I cannot say enough praise. Each character has a distinct voice and accent. Feehan's characters come to life! The wonderful thing about this book is that it is a part of a series and I can't wait for more.

A great Paranormal thriller

Always one to write a good book, Feehan, did a great job with this paranormal thriller. I cannot wait to see the rest of ghost walkers stories come together to build such a family of banded misfits. Each character with their quirks and drives really grip you.

Entertaining

Would you consider the audio edition of Shadow Game to be better than the print version?

no

Not sure why, but I enjoyed it.

Not much to the story. I loved the narration by Tom Stechschutte. I will continue listening to these series because of him.

Games not in the shadows

Great story first in game series of Christian Feehan narrated beautifully, his voice is strong and sure no mispronounced words or stumbling. this story introduces you to a large group of characters that you can't wait to hear their stories and see what happens to each of them.

Nice to be able to listen to books I love

I own all the Ghostwalker books and am glad I can now listen to them on Audio. If I hadn't previous read the book, I might have had problems staying engaged due to the narrator. But my love of the story makes me care little about the narrators sometimes monotone reading.

Finally took the plunge!

This series has been around for a long time and I know it has been really popular. However, even though I like this author and I like paranormal romance, this is not the type I paranormal romance I usually read. The summary never tripped my trigger. Then the romance package came along. So, what the heck, there are several books from the series in the romance package ,so what do I have to lose?
Wow, I am so glad I finally gave in and listened to book one. OMG, guys and gals, it was really, really well written. It is a unique storyline and the characters are great. Thanks, whoever came up with the idea of the romance package. I have been willing to try new authors and series, and this one is definitely a keeper. On to book 2!

One yummy voice

Wow... what a great book and what a great narration. Mr. Stechschulte has done an amazing job. This is one of my "go to lisens" when I need a distraction. Well done, everyone....well done.

Great Story Concept!

I loved the story, itself. The sci-fi mystery premise really catches my attention. Add in the romance and it’s a hit!
