Mind Bending

Revisado: 04-06-24

This book is mind bending. It is philosophical, scientific, fantastical and incredibly imaginative. It becomes so many different things that all tie together to be something very recognizable. I wasn’t sure about it early on but definitely was drawn in the further I read.

Great for kids not bad for adults

Revisado: 11-30-23

For kids: 5 Stars (the demographic it was written for)
For Adults: 3.5 Stars

It’s silly, fast but still tackles some important subjects like race relations but does so in an age appropriate way.

Great narration

Revisado: 11-28-23

Incredibly well thought out. The premise is interesting but the depth of the execution is what sets this apart.

Best in the series!

Revisado: 10-09-23

I was blown away by this continuation of the Shades of Magic series. It was well paced, beautifully written, and intricately thought out. This was the most exciting entry thus far but also the deepest in terms of both story and character explanation. Each character had strengths and weakness and felt real in not only their descriptions but also their inner dialogue and actions. It provided interesting and distinct points of view. Full review coming soon on socials: FunreliableNarrator but in the meantime, SOLID 5 Stars!

Great thriller with an interesting and great characters

Revisado: 07-22-23

4.5 Stars rounded up for the quality of the writing. Highly recommended if you like historical fiction, spy thrillers, and strong female characters (chill “macho” guys, it’s just characters that are women, you’ll be fine) Extremely interesting thriller that is a little on the slower side but never gets boring. The back and forth between times and trying to figure out what happened to change so much in just a few years kept me interested and always had me wanting to read one more chapter. The characters are very well developed while the high stakes and interesting subject matter (breaking German codes during WWII) kept this at the thriller level even when there wasn’t as much “action” (pew pew) as is relied on in a lot of thrillers.

Wonderful start to a magic filled world/series

Revisado: 07-03-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

This was a wonderful start to a very interesting magical world! It’s magic system is unique and still being unraveled. The lore is interesting and relates to power from the celestials as well as Mother Earth. There is a ton of symbolism but it never feels like a specific point of view is crammed down your throat. The characters are interesting and each have their own tone and points of view but unlike some fantasy novels on this scale, there aren’t too many characters to keep track of. There are some hints of slow burn romance and the beginnings of a quest. All in all the only negative I can really give is I wished it hadn’t ended when it did. Things were really ramping up and definitely have me excited for the next entry to the series (which I’ve already preordered). This was definitely more of the intro to the world, Magic, lore, and characters and while it contains plenty of excitement, I can see the sequel being even more high octane while delving deeper into the secrets that have been teased but not completely answered. I’ll update this with a more complete review here and on my FunreliableNarrator socials via video but Five solid stars and I can’t wait to see where the story and characters find themselves in the future!

Meh

Revisado: 06-12-23

I like the genre but this wasn’t my favorite. If you like sexual innuendo jokes, “that’s what she said” and “your MOM ….” jokes over and over and over again this book is for you. I’m not sure how many times a person can laugh at the number 69 but it’s less than the number of times the author tries to get you to. The battle scene was cool and there was some fun DnD references. It weirdly took place in a DnD type world that also had Spotify, Alexa, and incognito mode.

Absolute nonsense

Revisado: 05-27-23

This author is either completely stupid or expects his readers to be. There’s no other way this gets written. But if you hate liberals and don’t care about context, this is for you (though I’d recommend a book written by an actual adult)

Short Story

Revisado: 02-21-23

This was short and quick. It was fine but I could have used a little more in Act II.

Epic

Revisado: 02-08-23

An excellent culmination of everything that's happened in the series so far. Questions get answered, characters intersect, and the action picks up.
