a very compelling story
23 Feb 2008
Format:Audio CD
Courtesy of CK2S Kwips and Kritiques
After her mother was murdered when she was 15, Megan Blair went to live with her uncle, and has almost completely silenced the voices she heard in her head as a young girl. What Megan doesn't understand is that she is a Listener, able to hear the voices of people who have died. Until someone tries to kill her...
Neal Grady has been protecting Megan ever since the fateful night her mother was killed. He has used his own psychic abilities to relieve the burden of the horrors Megan's gift brings her. But now he has returned. It appears Molino, the man who killed Megan's mother in a fit of vengeance and rage, has found Megan and will do anything to kill her too. Neal will do anything to protect Megan from such evil.
Molino wants the Ledger, a book that holds all the secrets to the psychically talented family Megan is believed to be descended from and he intends to use it to kill off all the "freaks." linked through the family. Megan's mother killed Molino's son with her gifts, convincing Molino she is a Pandora, the most dangerous of all psychic talents.
Pandora's Daughter is a very compelling story. Action is non-stop in this fast paced thriller. The suspense is skillfully done, keeping me on the edge of my seat eager to see what would happen next. I actually found myself wanting to stay in the car and drive even more so I could continue on the roller coaster ride of emotions. I was kept guessing as to what Molino would do next in his quest for vengeance against Megan.
I loved the addition of the variety of psychic gifts to the story and the accompanying explanations of the levels of abilities. Experiencing Megan's abilities alongside of her and the emotions resulting from them, added a sense of urgency to the story and added tension to the story
I was more impressed with the thriller side of the story than I was the romance. Maybe it was the age difference between Megan and Neal, but I could not see them as a couple, no matter how hard I tried, even while I knew they were going to end up together in the end.
I had the abridged version of the audio and I think I would have enjoyed the unabridged version a little bit more. There seemed to be a lot of scene jumping that would have been much more smoothly done in the unabridged version with better transitions. Jennifer Van Dyck does a wonderful job performing the novel, her voice adding nuances to the characters that made them that much more fascinating.

Better than a sleeping pill!
13 May 2008
Format:Hardcover
While I'm fairly certain that I found this on the "top 20" at the store...I'm beyond understanding how it got there! This is truly dreadful.
The characters are shallow, the conversations ridiculous and the plot specious, at best! The only thing I can say of a positive nature about this book is that it's so bad it's funny if you read it aloud and include the silly facial expressions she attributes to the character.
If this is a top-seller it certainly says much about the dumbing-down of America.

If you enjoy Kay Hooper's paranormal series, you'll love this one.
30 Jan 2008
Format:Audio CD
I think those who are used to the Eve Duncan series can't get into this one because it's such a 360 degree turn for Iris Johansen. But if you enjoy Kay Hooper's Bishop series, you'll enjoy this one. I certainly did!
