About this listen

Katie Chandler had always heard that New York is a weird and wonderful place, but this small-town Texas gal had no idea how weird until she moved there. Everywhere she goes, she sees something worth gawking at and Katie is afraid she's a little too normal to make a splash in the big city. Working for an ogre of a boss doesn't help. Then, seemingly out of the blue, Katie gets a job offer from Magic, Spells, and Illusions, Inc., a company that tricks of the trade to the magic community. For MSI, Katie's ordinariness is an asset. Lacking any bit of magic, she can easily spot a fake spell, catch hidden clauses in competitor's contracts, and detect magically disguised intruders. Suddenly, average Katie is very special indeed. She quickly learns that office politics are even more complicated when your new boss is a real ogre, and you have a crush on the sexy, shy, ultra powerful head of the R&D department, who is so busy fighting an evil competitor threatening to sell black magic on the street that he seems barely to notice Katie. Now it's up to Katie to pull off the impossible: save the world and - hopefully - live happily ever after.

Magic and loves slow burner

I wanted to read something magical, trying to find witchy reads that aren't samey is hard by just titles.
So I am recommending this... Not witchy but magical and a twist on the non magical person being the spectacular.
Entwined with a slow burning crush... Guess what she doesn't get the guy at the end of this one... But keep reading the series.
I thoroughly enjoy this series.
I find the narrator's voice fine and it fits the southern bells that the story surrounds.

Truly Enchanting

What did you like most about Enchanted, Inc.?

It was light and funny

Who was your favorite character and why?

Katie Chandler. She was seeing all these strange things, but did she freak out? No, she just thought that the people in New York were weird

What about Eva Wilhelm’s performance did you like?

Eva's performance was really good, she made it sound as if she were Katie, with the different reactions to each new situation.

Spellbinding from start to finish.

If you could sum up Enchanted, Inc. in three words, what would they be?

Funny, enchanting, engaging.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Enchanted, Inc.?

The begining. I have been in situations when the boss is being an ogre and wishing that an unmissable job offer would appear in my inbox. Totally understood that Katie would think it was a scam and from that point on I felt that this character could be me and so loved all her future adventures.

Which character – as performed by Eva Wilhelm – was your favourite?

I loved them all but I have to say may favourite character is Rod. Although not the hero, he is such a great character that I loved it whenever he came into the story.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed out loud on many an occasion and easily got swept up in the excitement of the story as it picked up pace.

Any additional comments?

I picked this title on a whim but was so pleased I did. I devoured the other titles in the series just as fast and often listened to them till the early hours of the morning. This book is perfect for everyone who believes that their lives could use a little more magic.

A Fast Favourite

I thoroughly enjoyed Shanna Swendson's Enchanted, Inc. It was fresh, clever and fun- easily the best book I've read/listened to in a long time. I couldn't turn it off and had to buy the other books in the series in quick succession. Eva Wilhelm read the story perfectly and her voice really enhanced the story. Highly recommend.

Easy but captivating story - worth a credit!

What made the experience of listening to Enchanted, Inc. the most enjoyable?

I enjoyed the characters, a new twist - with the mundane made exceptional.

What did you like best about this story?

Ditto.

Which character – as performed by Eva Wilhelm – was your favourite?

Owen, the shy and bashful hero with a hint of danger - delicious. I liked Rodney, his projected hunk hides a sensitive side!

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It is a rainy afternoon feel good listen, it relieved the boredom of long drives and I found myself listening whilst cooking because I wanted to know what happened next!

Any additional comments?

The narrator has the most irritating voice and I seriously contemplated returning it after listening to her for five minutes. I am pleased that I persevered, there is a creaky pitch but I stopped noticing as the story itself unfolded.

Entertaining idea, but could be better developed

Would you try another book written by Shanna Swendson or narrated by Eva Wilhelm?

Not on the strength of this one

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Could have been delivered better.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

A bit monotone and lacking involvement. She didn't sound like a Texan trying to hide her accent - it needs more that the odd "y'all".

Do you think Enchanted, Inc. needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

I don't think so, but that was clearly the intention of the author.

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed this enough to keep on listening, but couldn’t help thinking it could have been a fair bit better. The climax could have been made a lot more dramatic than it was.

It’s an imaginative idea which has a lot of scope, and the characters we meet in this story are interesting enough.

The telegraphing of a romance to develop in later books is almost painfully telegraphed and I thought some of the background plot details were a bit implausible.

I found the writing just a bit stilted and there were quite a lot of repetitions, something an audiobook makes slightly more obvious.

Magicical mayhem

I've read or listened to this book many many times since it first came out. I love it.

I find the narrator a bit shrill but get used to her quickly. It may be because I listen to it quite fast and am no used to the accent.
