From AudioFile:

In this sequel, Zara and her "were" and human friends continue to hunt the feral creatures. Despite the fast action and fun dialogue, Julia Whelan's wavering accents distract from what would otherwise be a riveting tale. She compensates with emotional inflections for the teen characters who face challenges both supernatural and mundane. Also, she clearly separates Zara's inner dialogue from her verbal sparring with her boyfriend, grandmother, and an intriguing pixie king who has a vested interested in her. This is an engaging production for listeners who want a captivating tale, but it can't stand alone in the series and doesn't stand out as an audiobook. M.M.O. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
