review 1: Since this was just a short story that I read online, I'll be leaving my review here, and not on my actual blog.Having not read the Seraphina book yet, I don't have much of a background on the characters or the setting, but I did enjoy this story, regardless of my ignorance. I already love the tone that the author sets with the characters and their voices. The piece of the cast that was introduced in this short already appeals strongly to me; their personalities are varied, yet each one is clearly deeply developed and interesting. It makes you want to know the characters better, which can only be accomplished by reading the full novel. Since this short was clearly designated to be a more light-hearted, character-centric companion piece than anything else, I have nothing to... more say about the plot. Other than the fact that it was really cute. All in all, I found the short to be delightful, an easy read, and I definitely plan on picking up the book in the near future.
review 2: The Audition can be enjoyed by fans no matter when they decide to read it. If read beforehand, it provides an excellent glimpse into the characters and Ms. Hartman's writing style. If read afterwards, it adds another layer of depth to the story by highlighting the relationship between Seraphina and Glisselda, showcasing the qualities that make them such interesting young women. Short and sweet, The Audition is a perfect companion piece to the novel. less

I really like this even though it was only 17 pgs or so. I'm really excited to read the real book.

Excellent story and great way to start the series! Read this before you read the first book.
