This is not an audiobook

Revisado: 04-29-25

I don't exactly know how I stumbled into this, purchased or selected or whatever, it was a very long time ago that it got added to my list. However, I dutifully listened to the whole thing.

This is a public radio style audio documentary with Narrators/journalists and audio clips from the various people involved. It has music and is presented in an episodic format. There isn't really a story or a conclusion. It's more presented with facts and chronology.

I won't fault anyone for enjoying such things, I know I definitely don't. I didn't want to rate it 1 star because it was well crafted and well produced. However, it isn't a story, it isn't a novel, it doesn't have a "performance". I didn't like it and I don't think it was sufficiently categorized to indicate what exactly it was.

Decent fantasy heroic tale

Revisado: 04-08-25

I liked the protagonists quite a lot, but the antagonists seemed a little flat. The setting was interesting enough to make me want to continue to the next book and follow further adventures and exploration into the world.

Not your average cute animal tale

Revisado: 01-27-25

I liked it. The animals mostly were portrayed like their animal selves rather than like humans with furry bodies. There was certainly some anthropomorphic bits, but lots less than others I’ve read. It really made it feel like a full story.

Not for me

Revisado: 09-08-24

This book reads like a steampunk pre-teen romance novel. Swooning heroine, maximum masculine love interest, insane bad guy driven mad because of a broken heart…. I’m sure it’s good if you’re looking for such a thing but I was hoping for more science fiction/fantasy novel? Perhaps with a Victorian flair? I was thinking a bit like John Carter of Mars? But alas it was not to be & not for me.

The reader was good enough and the non romance part of the story was entertaining enough that I finished it. However, I’ll not be reading any more like this.

Dull

Revisado: 08-18-24

The rambling story with no real plot to focus anything. It’s a diary of someone’s life interspersed with some Mythology of Madagascar. Frankly, the mythology was the most interesting bits.

Enjoyable

Revisado: 12-28-23

I missed the alien stuff in this story. The human themes were all great, but for the last couple novels it’s seemed to be human struggles exclusively without even a hint of alien stuff. I’m hoping that changes for the next one!

Great ongoing work

Revisado: 01-02-23

I’m always eagerly looking forward to the next installment. The story advances conflict by conflict without getting stale or repetitive or predictable. The characters are all interesting and human and enjoyable.

Amazing production, above average story

Revisado: 02-15-19

The ensemble narration cast was simply amazing, but the story really took far too long to develop. I was very bored with the story until the very end when suddenly it all coalesced into a cohesive plot. I’m excited for the continuation of the story now, but it was painful to get there.

The narration really got me through the drudgery, I know I’d never have made it through the print edition.
