I chose to listen to this book as an audiobook due to the reviews I saw. I was NOT disappointed! The performance of the narrators was fantastic! I will compare all other dual POV audiobooks to this one. LOL. These narrators played off each other with each chapter. While each chapter had a POV focus (Blackbird or Butcher), the narrators performed together for all chapters. To be able to hear the banter between the two MC's from each actor created a unique listening experience for the readers.

I do not have any criticism for this book. I enjoyed the storyline, the character development, the pacing, the narration...I loved it all. I cannot wait for book 2 to come out. This will be one of my top reads for the year for sure!
