Would you ever listen to anything by Scott Sigler again? Emma Galvin does a good job but I find her voice nasal, sharp and unpleasant to listen to. I was also unhappy with the narration, but that's a matter of taste. These were just like cartoons almost, so unlike him. Scott's characters are what I really love usually. Chances are if I haven't learned to care about the characters by then, I never will. In fact you can say the same about most of them up to the time, over half way through, when I turned off in disgust. This kid is just bratty, and she gets more bratty as time goes on. I mean, when someone like Quentin Barnes is being at his most bratty and unbearable you still can't help liking him. I didn't find anything to like in the main character, which for Sigler is very unusual. Sorry, harsh words I know, but I've seen so many from the un-put-downable to the awful and this just doesn't work for me. I have to say I had qualms when I heard he was writing what I consider to be yet one more too many in the endless series of Hunger Games variants. I've followed him since he was a podcast novelist and watched his rise to bestseller with delight. I have truly loved the work of this author for years.
