Great 5 book series, Do not like Virtual Voice.

Revisado: 01-10-25

Guy Antibes is a great author - inventive story lines and he develops the characters well. Love his writing and have enjoyed his other series on Audible. Glad this one was complete, unlike the other that is missing the last two books.

Virtual Voice (VV) is a bit of a pain to get thru. Multiple problems that distract from the story and seem easily fixed if anyone really cared to create a stellar product:
- Gives the exact same voice through out the presentation. Really? Easy to program a change in pitch, pronunciation and accent for the various characters. Why wasn't this done? Is it more costly to get a better trained AI?
- VV can't get the difference between present and past tense Read and other verbs/nouns.
- VV appears to be confused by commas, treating them as periods, giving a long pause instead of a normal break to the sentence.
- VV often puts the wrong emphasis on the wrong syllable making the listener work it out for themselves.
- VV shows no excitement or change of emotion for ANY part of the book. The characters are fighting a duel - same voice. The characters are having a tender moment - same voice. Etc.

Until VV becomes more "trained" and "intuitive" I will not be listening to any more VV books.

I greatly appreciate the actors/readers who actually do the work and put their hearts into their presentation. I see no reason to keep them from having a job that they are so very well suited for.

Okay, not the same narrator, but the protagonist of this story IS a young girl! DUH!!!

Thank you, the Mancours, for including this story and additional depth to the Spellmonger adventure! I love the world you have created. Thank you for sharing it with us!

Is there ANY way to actually END a sentence?

Revisado: 07-25-20

OMG!

I never realized that there were soooooooo many sentence endings that could be drawn out to the point of ludicracy!!
Endings of her become herrrrrrrrr or therrrrrrre or tozieeeeeeeee. Why this wasn't stopped after the first chapter??
So very distracting for a very good story!
Too bad, the narrator`s voice is pleasant, but the drawing out of EVERY sentence completion is destructive to the enjoyment of the book!

Funny and entertaining!

Appreciated the narrator 's change of tone and dialect for each voice, shows some skill often lacking.

Can't wait for the Series!

It is so very difficult to express my gratitude for this excellent work of Art.

Thank you Robert Jordan, his wife and Brandon Sanderson for allowing us to have the completed story as it was intended.

After Mr. Jordan's death, I put the books down. I recently decided I needed to finish them. I am very glad I did! The story, albeit long, is quite engrossing and told by a truly great author.

Mr. Kramer and Ms. Reading are true artists in their telling of the story. I will look for both of them on other Audible books.

Thank you to all who made these books possible.

*Note: We REALLY need these turned into movies or, better yet, an HBO series!

Again, Excellent!!

Kevin J. Anderson is doing an excellent job with this series! The action and adventure continues "page" after "page" and does not slow down! The fourth book was published in June 2005, I hope Audible gets it soon! If you like Sci-Fi, you will really enjoy this one - and the rest in the series.
