DARK SLAYER

DARK SLAYER is a noteworthy example of dual-voiced narration—seamless and enthralling. Set in Feehan's paranormal world of blood-drinking Carpathians, this latest installment introduces Rosvan, slave to an evil mage who escapes to find that his mate, Ivory, shares his desire for revenge. Large amounts of the treacherous text are in the Carpathian language, but narrators Phil Gigante and Jane Brown never falter in delivering a realistic, intense love story. Moving smoothly between Rosvan and Ivory's points of view, the narrators construct the paranormal world with unflagging professionalism. The sound effects used when the main characters converse telepathically are effective and keep the dialogue clear. If there are any paranormal romance listeners who haven't yet discovered Feehan, this impressive production will bring them on board. C.A.
