The pacing of this book is more suited to the 2 part graphic audio format than ACOTAR, mainly because the action is a little more evenly spread throughout the story. It also helps that you're settled into the world the author has created, so it's a lot easier to accept the new ideas that pitch up in here. There's plenty of moments in this to keep you interested and listening, and glimpses of humour throughout the overall slightly darker tone which pull the listener in.
As with Rhys in the last one, the voices of Cassian and Azriel aren't quite what I was expecting, but as I have now settled into Rhys' voice (and actually quite like it!), I'm sure I'll quickly come to accept the actors' interpretations. As for the wider audio, I feel that it gives the darker moments a lot more depth and emotional resonance than the written word alone, and likewise purposely picks out those moments of brevity to give the listener a moment's relief.
The only part I felt was lacking was a moment where Rhys is sharing a memory with Feyre, and rather than having Rhys supply the voice over, it's Feyre effectively doing an impression if him, dropping her voice an octave and adjusting her pronunciation slightly. I genuinely thought I'd mistakenly slowed down the audio speed when it kicked in. I can't say I quite understood that directorial decision as it jolted me out of my own head, but overall it's a small nitpick from an otherwise very well put together production.
Can't wait for part 2!
