Junkyard Roadhouse by Faith Hunter
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is book four of the Junkyard Cats series. Every book has left me wanting more. I do understand that these are novellas rather than novels, but darn it, this one felt far too short! It must be time to go back and re-read/re-listen to the earlier volumes.
Every update on Shining Smith and her companions, particularly the cats, is a pleasure. Jagger (I thought it was Jaeger until I read the ebook) is okay, but the cats are more intriguing. The cats shine as the absolute heroes of one scene early on in the book, which is wonderful.
I was a Faith Hunter fan before this series began, or I wouldn’t have taken a chance on it. The first volume, Junkyard Cats, was only available as an audiobook at first. I don’t generally listen to fiction, but I like Hunter’s work so much that I bought it anyway. I’m so glad that I did!
For the first time, I used the Whispersync feature to read the Kindle version of the book and listen to the Audible version. That worked very well!
Khristine Hvam‘s narration adds so much to this series. I can hear Shining, in particular, but she does a great job with all the other characters, too.
