I listened to the audiobook too so a word about the performance as well:
Voice: Vanessa Moyen is good at this so this book is narrated perfectly, with easy to recognize different voices for all the characters and very natural intonation for every situation so listening is very relaxing and fun. Excellent job!
Story: Wow, just... Wow! I did not expect to get so ecstatic over this book and it was probably a bad idea to start this book in the evening but I don’t mind being robbed of my sleep for gaining this gem of a story!
It just was that good that it left me too euphoric to sleep, I think I resembled being hyped up on some stimulants or something because I could not pause this book for something so ordinary or boring as sleep lol. I totally get the comparison with Sarah J. Maas, her first book left me in a similar state, although that book took me a bit longer to get through, but in all fairness: I read ToG myself and listened to this book so comparing isn’t exactly fair. It might be me evolving but I think I found this book a bit easier and definitely more captivating than Throne of Glass, although that book will remain a favorite nontheless but it’s not all action all the time, there’s more romance going on in ToG so of course Oath Taker will be more captivating if it barely contains all that romance (although you do get some tension and sparks that kind of leaves a promise for a bit of romance further along the series).
Audrey Grey excels at worldbuilding and dialogues, every bit of the story is fact-paced and every scene adds to the story. I love the characters, the mortals and immortal races each have their own specific features. I love the way that the immortals thinking about the mortals is portrayed. It’s very realistic in my opinion. Although it is fantasy, there’s still a... let’s call it a vibe, that makes it believable or not and this all feels so natural and logical. The characters all have dept, well, beside the mysterious ‘Creature’, he needs to be vague for the moment. I have an idea but it will surely be revealed in a sequel. But they each have their own past that lingers on their shoulders, coloring their (rash) decisions or actions.
All that character building gives for a plethora of funny little details in their interactions. I love all the witty remarks from our feisty mortal and the fun, rude, bored or stoic comments from the immortals from both the light as the dark side often turn into delicious dry humour. But still, there are enough serious conversations too so it’s not a comedy. It’s more of a captivating suspenseful fantasy story of epic proportions that needs to be translated to every language and needs to be made into a movie or series!
