I really liked the energy of the story and the reading. Evocative setting, too. But I never felt any connection with any of the characters, and therefore could find an emotional flow in the story. What happened to them was interesting but not moving.

I really liked this too. It had sort of a twisted fairytale to it as well with the secrets of the ring. I also didn't feel much connection to the characters, but this was still a very enjoyable listen.
