Historia
Brothers torn by magic. A sorceress with dragony aspirations. A wolf king, a royal wizard, a squire fleeing with a coveted sword. What could possibly go wrong when they all collide in Highwander, where the very bedrock is formed of the powerful substance known as Wardstone? After reading all three of the Wardstone novels I find myself wanting more. I love Hyden, Mikahl, and Phen. This is a great fantasy trilogy. Well written and worth every penny. The characters may never leave me. - Liz Corwell Book One - The Sword and the Dragon Book Two - Kings, Queens, Heroes, and Fools Book Three - The...

Great Story, Terrible Narration
Revisado: 04-09-25
I thought this would have been an awesome book had there been a good narrator instead of a virtual voice. The inflections were all wrong and completely threw me off. It was so distracting that it was hard to follow the story and stay immersed. This was my first virtual narration and I don't think I would ever purchase a book with virtual narration again. It ruined this book!

Disappointed
Revisado: 11-20-24
Normally, I love the many actors playing the character's parts. This one was missing all of the nonverbal narrative. It was like watching TV with no picture. There was no way to figure out what was actually happening during the action, amidst all the noise and screaming. Like being blindfolded. It took away from the story to the point where there are big holes in the storyline. I thought the story itself might have been very good but it became so disjointed that I was unable to follow the storyline. Unfortunately, due to this problem, I was unable to finish this book.

Historia
The Krakau came to Earth to invite humanity into a growing alliance of sentient species. However, they happened to arrive after a mutated plague wiped out half the planet, turned the rest into shambling, near-unstoppable animals, and basically destroyed human civilization. You know - your standard apocalypse. The Krakau's first impulse was to turn around and go home. Their second impulse was to try to fix us. Now, a century later, human beings might not be what they once were, but at least they're no longer trying to eat everyone. Mostly.

Good story, atrocious narrator.
Revisado: 07-13-24
The story starts out very dry but if you hang in there it picks up. Character development is very slow making it difficult to feel for the characters. Some or all of this is due to the terrible narration. It sounds as if the narration was done by AI. The inflections are all wrong. I really hate AI narrations because of it. I'd rather shove an ice pick in my ears rather than listen to AI narration. In light of this, the story is probably better than what I listened to. I'm hoping that a different narrator is used in subsequent books.

Dalinar Kholin's Alethi armies won a fleeting victory at a terrible cost. The enemy Parshendi summoned the violent Everstorm, which now sweeps the world with destruction and in its passing awakens the once peaceful and subservient parshmen to the horror of their millennia-long enslavement by humans.

This was another wonderful sequel from this author. I can't wait to get my hands on the next book to wrap up this epic adventure. This series is such a riveting read. The narrators were so talented that they transport the listener to the very vibrant world in the narrative. Excellent work, all around, to be sure.

Historia
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Historia
When Ollie Sweet is very publicly dumped by ‘The One’, his seemingly perfect world dissolves into misery, self-pity, and a bizarre rooftop meeting with a suicidal man in flip-flops. While most would seek out the support of loved ones at such a torrid time, natural-born journalist Ollie asks the subscribers of his website: how did they get over their failed relationships? When Ollie follows some of their more extreme advice, chaos inevitably ensues.
