My Review
I was really digging the prequel to this book "Quarter Share". When I reviewed it I said that I really enjoyed it and I was going straight on to listen to this sequel.
I do not feel the same way about this audio book. It started really well in the same vein but then it just got smutty. I ended up skipping past three chapters because the author just brought in something totally out of step with the rest what the first book set us up for.
Although it's true that some trading took place in this book and that we had new charaters to expand our interest it devolved into smut.
I'm now undecided about listening to the next in the series. I dont like skipping chapters, I dont want to do that again.
As with the first book in the series the producton and reading are excellent a real nice listen ( when I dont have to skip chapters).
Reading 3/3
Production 2/3
Story 1/3
Total Score 6/9
Get it from Podiobooks
Get the first chapter.
