Loved this as a teenager, audio was pretty good. I always check for some of my most enjoyed books that I have read in audio version. Every now and then they go back and make one from the 90's/80's etc.

The book did not have as much impact on me this time. But I did know the story.

The narrator did a good job. I enjoyed reading this one again. Thanks!

I ultimately enjoyed the books and listened to the whole trilogy. Maybe it was me at the time on my commute, but there were a lot of names and places and history thrown at you quickly and I found it difficult to straighten out all that later on. Eventually, it ironed out.

I was not going to continue until the cliffhanger at the end which the whole scene and all that happened finally felt impending to me.

There were a couple of scenes were twisting nipples were used that seemed glaring and out of place. I was like, what?? I get what the author was getting at, but it jarred me. the trilogy was very good.

This was excellent epic fantasy. The author must have loved Wheel of Time, since there were many instances of certain word uses that were present there as well. The fact the same audio narrators, who are wonderful, really made it more poignant. It is not that those words or phrases are "copied" or even copyrighted only to WOT, but it was very reminiscent and not at all in a bad way.

The characters all grow, and certain twists happen that I did not see coming, some that I did see coming.... (no spoilers)

My wife also enjoyed this quite a bit as well.
Thanks!

I saw the movie, which I really enjoyed back when it came out. So much so, that I said I would always go back and read the book. Fast forward a few decades, and I finally got to this audio for Halloween time.

The book largely follows the movie or vice versa. There were a few deeper bits or extra scenes, but it was a shorter novel anyway.

The narrator did a fine job. I enjoyed the light Canadian accents at times in dialogue. He did not change his voice overly much, but not every narrator can or needs to do that.

I must say that I believe I liked the movie more. I am going to watch the director's cut again tonight or on the weekend, now that I have completed the audiobook. There were certain elements in the movie that were more exciting. I can see why the director wanted it that way for that particular medium. The book was pretty good, too.
Thanks

I really enjoyed this installment and have had a great time with the series. I still must say I prefer the 1st book. There are certain elements that were dramatized (the Voice of the great ones) that were talked ABOUT via only certain characters that could hear them in their heads. But, the Voice and its delivery was just super, and felt missed,

I enjoyed also how certain characters from the first two books showed up again.
If the series continues, I would probably get the next one too.
Thanks!

This was tied into the Threshold universe, and it was enjoyable. It did have some of the same elements of the previous books as far as the group of people were concerned. It was enjoyable space zombies and more. I did prefer the first book in the series the best so far. I am interested in Terminus, so I will get that one as well.
Thanks,

Loved the book.
Two things would have been better in my opinion:
1)Not having the MF God swear in the last 2 hours of the book
and potential spoiler:

.2) Having the same hungering voice actually be VOICED this time too, would have been so great. Ray nailed it on book 1, and while another character heard it and bled from eyes, etc, it was handled via "offscreen." I would have preferred it to have been present, not just halfway told about it as the character was in mental shock.

Anyhow, reading the next book now. I enjoy Peter Cline's writing so fa, and the narrator is always great.
Thanks!

This series continues to evolve. I have enjoyed it very much. This appears to be a setup for the next books, though, so know that going in.
Ray Porter continues to be awesome.
Thanks!
