Unabridged Audiobook
I chose this as a VIP reward and am glad that I did. The (mis) adventures of a royally born demon choosing to fool around instead of tending to the curses he has been assigned to, a young girl trying her darndest to break the curse on her family and her younger brother, make for quite an unlikely threesome. It is unclear till the end if they will succeed. Will the demon choose to complete his assignment or will he help the cursed family. I really hope there will be another audio following this most enjoyable listen! The narrator was good and the story line great!!
OMG! All I can say is AWESOME AWESOMENESS AWESOMELY!! What a great story! It catches you during the first 3 chapters and it never slowed down! Heart-eye emoji!!!!! I chose this title from a handful of books (it really was the only interesting title offered… and it is a five-star review!) I’m glad I selected it! I would have used a credit on it!! I will look through the other titles from Henry Neff! The narrator was the best one for the job!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wonderfully engaging characters and storyline.
This is book was so great! I was hooked from the beginning, looking forward to anything else from this author . Really well written hope they write a sequel!
Fun read! Loved the imagination that went into this book. I don’t typically read this genre but it was like taking a very enjoyable vacation. Narrator is fantastic.
I really enjoyed this book! I laughed, cried a little and got angry. So many twists and turns. The writing and story keeps you wanting more! I really hope there's more to this story! The narrator did great too!
This was a great a book! It was hard to quit listening once I started the book. The story was very entertaining to the very end. The narrator was perfect!
I picked this books because of all the reviews and the 5 stars and let me say, this book is as amazing as everyone says! So dang good. I loved the characters, the story and am hoping there will be a sequel. Everything about this book was perfect! If you are looking for a fun read - THIS IS IT!
Very interesting listen! I wanted to like it less than I did but it really hooked me after the first few chapters!
SO GOOD! entertaining, suspenseful, engaging, and funny. Throw in a dash of sadness and extremely well written fight scenes and you have a really great ride. Characters are well developed and complex. Following to see if another book is forthcoming.
It was easily one of the best books I have listened to lately. The story was intriguing written with good style. Would recommend for a fun read anytime.
This was a very unique story line and I enjoyed it very much! Certain parts made me laugh out loud and the characters were well written.
nice conclusion. nothing fancy. just a good simple story
I absolutely loved listening to this book! The narrator is my new absolute favorite and I will look for his readings in the future. I really hope this author writes another, either a sequel or a series. Lazlo is a fantastic character! Every character was fully alive in my mind and played pivotal roles in the story. I found myself laughing at loud, talking to the characters, moments of anxiety, and full of hope.
4.5 stars. Funny and thrilling and perfect.
Fast paced, but not so fast you don't get to know the characters. Engaging story.
This book was a fun read. Fast paced, fun characters and ideas. Great for the start of October! Not scary but a little unsettling at moments but so much silliness as well. Loved it!
Good fun concept. I didn’t want to stop listening to it!
I really enjoyed this tale! It was whimsy, thought provoking, and had parts that were laugh out loud funny. It was a nice change of pace from the “ending guessed” books. I got it through the VIP selection and was probably the best one I have picked so far.
Very entertaining. Not a dull moment
Super fun to read!
Delightfully entertaining in the most obscure way. The narrator was excellent and kept characters distinctly separated; which was a pleasure to listen to and greatly appreciated. I think the moral of this book is— there is humanity and decency in everyone and everything no matter how deep one has to dig to find it within.
It was awesome feeling in love with a demon. The courage of Maggie was inspiring
Chose this randomly as a VIP reward, and really loved the fun magical romp through a demon infested world. Looking forward to reading more of Henry's work. Also Ramiz is an incredible narrator, great accents and depth to his voice.
If this book ever became a movie, (which I could absolutely see) it would be a natural off-shoot of Beetlejuice…it seems to occur in the same universe and has the same type of humor. The narrator was really very good…except for his try at a Massachusetts/Connecticut accent. (CT doesn’t really have one so I would have suggested just dropping the attempt!) That is my only peeve. There is one character that was enjoyable but not quite written as expected. I’m not sure how to explain this without a spoiler, so I’ll just say, being really really REALLY old should show in a character’s demeanor through the book and not just at the introduction. Don’t let any of this stop you from listening. It was quite humorous and just a great story with a number of interesting twists and conversations. I would absolutely listen to another book with this demon as a character. A lot was quite fantastical but not convenient (for example - when an author springs well-timed random magic just because they are not skilled enough to have written it in as part of the fabric of the story - none of that here). Long but you won’t get bored. It’s a good one! If you are avoiding certain themes, there is a bit of sexual content and one brief scene of near sexual assault and another I can’t describe without giving away a spoiler.
Loved this book. A really fun supernatural adventure with a ton of heart.
Great read. Super fun book. Had a hard time putting it down. Ready for sequel. The narrator was fantastic.
Loved this book! It was unlike any other book i have read or listened too. Hoping there is a sequel!!
Great book and worth the read. Definitely could have ended sooner though.
Fun read with a great narrator and surprising turns.
Such a wonderful read! It had a sprinkle of everything, from humor to a tad of horror. I would definitely reread this over and over. The narrator was also great, his different voices will definitely keep your attention.
Pleasantly surprised. Funny, smart and entertaining.
