About this listen
In the wake of their terrifying escape from Fairhaven Hall, sisters Jess and Hannah Ballard find themselves on the run, pursued by the two most powerful groups in the history of the spirit world.
On one side, the Durupinen, determined to capture the girls and prevent their role in an ancient prophecy that promises to destroy them and unleash the spirit hordes on the earth. On the other side, the Necromancers, ancient enemies of the Durupinen, hell-bent on bringing the same prophecy to fruition. When the girls are betrayed and one of them falls into the Necromancers’ hands, both face decisions with cataclysmic consequences.
Will the lure of power prove too great to resist, or will the bond between the sisters survive this last, most crucial of tests?
Spirit Ascendancy is the much anticipated third and final instalment of E.E. Holmes’ award-winning Gateway Trilogy.

Good: A great idea for a story. It could have been confusing but easy to follow and well written. Make sure you start with Spirit Legacy - I started The Gateway Tracker book one, which was the fourth book! The story kept me listening, and I liked the main character. The ending of the series was very good. The story references genuine groups and myths but is unique.
Bad: A couple of the books had a different narrator who had a beautiful southern U.S. accent, which didn't suit the character's background, but at least she could do a cockney accent and a Scottish one. Most of the books were nattated by somebody who is offensively bad.
The character of Finn is just awful. He has no personality, is a stereotype, and says "properly" on repeat in the first two books. His character is made much worse by the terrible narration, and his accent doesn't match his coloquialisms.
One character is referred to as " Cat Tree Owner" by every character - for the record, nobody in England, Scotland, or Ireland would pronounce Catriona that way! Nor would an English man call a route a "rowt."
Every Scottish character was mentally disturbed. Again, this may have been the narrator's fault, but possibly not.
The story is good, but a couple of things were never explained, such as why nobody outside the Duropinan world wondered where cremated bodies went, or whether scouted grooms knew the truth.
The story was dragged out too long, and would have been better as six or seven books.
Having said all of this, I still feel that the book series is excellent, but the narrator is appalling
Another great book in the series

Great in all aspects!

The Scottish and cockney accents in particular are so bad I longed for those sections to pass quickly.
I’m going to return to reading these instead of listening.
Better read than heard.
