I'd like to say my main issue with this book is the narrator on the audio book so, toys may not apply to the written book as the story itself was interesting.  the narrator has awful cadence so if a scene was tense it exciting, you'd never know. And he didn't use different voices so I had no idea who was talking. That being said the story was almost there. I feel like the story felt too disconjointed and not fully fleshed out.  The characters were also one dimensional with lazy feeling backgrounds.  The interactions also seemed odd and not justified.
