Bobs stepping up!

Revisado: 09-13-24

Taylor and Porter make a memorable team once more. I found this book better than the previous. An enjoyable read that I sincerely encourage people to try.

Milking it all out - but it sure is good milk

Revisado: 11-21-23

This addition to the series introduced new challenges and situations that provoked chuckles or thoughts. Some seemed, in retrospect, to contribute little to the forward motion of the plot - but they were still excellent. Garon Whited has succeeded in creating a main character with depth and nuance, whose musings and doings are intriguing and challenging, often in unforeseen ways. I just wish the next book in the series was already here.

Only concern: far too short

Revisado: 02-03-23

Another excellent novel about Fred F Fletcher, signed Drew Hayes. I envy those who haven’t tried this book or the series yet - you are in for a treat! And Kirby is perfect, picture perfect, as the voice actor.

Great overall story, but…

Revisado: 01-31-23

… it’s hastily or sloppily written. This book starts by changing the end of the former. Numerous occasions where people either have all the time in the world as a blade descends towards them, other times no time at all although the attack is distant. In combat adversaries switch positions and posture without the reader being informed. But if that doesn’t bother you too much, it is a great read. Excepting the common trend where more and more powerful artifacts and monsters keep getting added to the world as books go by.

Nice but feels hurried

Revisado: 11-13-22

I’m a huge T Mancour fan, so of course I bought this book. It does not disappoint BUT I find the performer challenged by a lot of the characterizations. Her voice is perfect for Gatina IMHO, but with this series I think a lot would have been improved by having one more performer on board. Some sentences also are repetitive, making me feel the production maybe was a bit hurried.

Internering story however…

Revisado: 08-06-22

The firat thing I reacted to is the amount of gore and lengthy descriptions of how people are killed messily. This feels unnecessary to me, the plot and story is well above average without this addition. I don’t generally mind characters swearing, but I prefer a little more ingenuity than constantly and often using the f word. Historically this is also a rather modern swear so it makes no sense to me and, again, spoils rather than helps the novel. I really like the characters, plot and intrigue though and will buy the next book in the series - but I hope Ryan stays away from more in-depth descriptions of what war is like in a pike wall, for this description seems very very unrealistic to me.

Great story but...

Revisado: 06-12-21

Fugue is a great story, well performed. My foremost problem with it is that it doesn’t really advance Erik’s struggle with what has gone before, instead the book introduces - and sometimes deals with - a host of other challenges and relationships. I was hoping for more, but I will wait impatiently for part 8.

Finty does a good job but not the producer

Revisado: 07-30-20

First let me say I enjoyed this book, and Finty’s narration. I think Terry’s series would really benefit from being described from more perspectives than the Spellmongers sometimes incredibly self satisfied one. This perspective is different, although quite in line with the original. My main issue is with the production of the audiobook. To my mind it should be easy enough to get a crew of narrators to agree on pronunciation, and to a lesser degree, on at least some minor common nuances to the characters appearing in several books. This has not happened. If it had my rating would’ve been higher.

A gripping and intricate tale

Revisado: 08-20-18

Very good story, excellent world and character building. The only reason why I don’t give it five stars is that there are a few glaring holes in the plot substructure..

Bobiverse idea reused

Revisado: 07-31-18

This book is good. I liked it, and the performance. My only criticism is that the main ideas borrow heavily from Taylor’s books on “the Bobiverse”, including some winks and waves at those books. It is still a very good read.
