Great Story but Narration for some characters could be better

Revisado: 01-09-25

Loved the story. Only down side is Kate Reading is not a very talented voice actor; only has a few voices and all male voices are more or less the same. Difficult job, however, when you contrast to Kramer’s much greater diversity of voices he crafts for the characters it suggests something better is indeed feasible.

Best of the Series

Revisado: 07-07-24

If you stuck it out until the last novel, this one is the best. The writing by book four has finally come into its own. I still think the poses are not done well (never describes what people actually look like when they do poses), but they are fine in this novel or maybe you just get used to it. There are a few weak spots here and there but I think overall the characters are not corny and the plot is interesting, which I think books one and two suffer from. Ultimately, if you have read 1-3, definitely read 4.

Best Book Yet

Revisado: 06-23-24

Abraham seems to be finding his groove a bit more in this book. Overall much less corny than the previous two (especially one) and also had a more clearly defined zenith. I liked that we got a closer look at the magic in this book, however, it still seems a bit black-boxed from the reader, although much less so than in the previous two books. A 3.5 for me only because I still feel his characters are still a bit too melodramatic.

Corny Voice Acting

Revisado: 06-03-24

The voice acting for a several of the characters, but especially Seedless, is pretty bad. There is way too much drama added to the voice when it seems like the source material is calling for much less. The story itself is fairly interesting, with the weakest part being how the romance is written and the best part being the way magic exists, however, the magic itself is significantly under explored—leaning into that system would have helped spruce up the story quite a bit.

Excellent novel, Beautiful Writing, Bad Child Voice Acting

Revisado: 10-04-23

Everything was great except the voices for the kids. Really bad. Not even close to how 13 year olds sound and Will was needlessly made more whiny than needed be.

Can’t Delete/Disappointing News

Revisado: 07-08-20

Can’t select from library—Amazon please help!
The news itself is average. Sometimes you get an occasional gem, but a lot of the NYT is pro-war (sold us the lie that got us into Iraq), pro-wall street, pro-corporate healthcare, and sold us the Trump-Russia collusion non-story wasting a lot of energy that could have been devoted the real crime plaguing the US—corporate crime. As the “paper of record”, we should expect more.
Amazon, please allow us to delete/unsubscribe etc. so it doesn’t flood library. Will make navigating Kindle lib a lot easier.

Won’t let you remove

Revisado: 07-08-20

As others have pointed out, the fact that you cannot remove is really annoying and is not worth supporting until you can. Simple fix that is maybe (although strongly suspect less) is a day’s pay for one individual, which would be appreciated by many customers.
Content wise, the WaPo is average, with the occasional good story and the not not infrequent propagandist pro-war crap and not to mention the wasting all our time with the not-story of Trump-Russia collusion (like their time would not have been better spent reporting on poverty, environmental destruction, and corporate crime)
