There were some good takeaways from this book. and some incredibly BAD in my opinion...

if someone does this, but it does not mean they are a psychopath, but if they do that, still does not mean they are a psychopath...

I found a lot of the things on dealing with a psychopath helpful, as I have been using them in real life for a long time before this book. What is the difficult part to do, is to record all of the incidents that occur, because as mentioned, each incident on their own, seems insignificant, but taken as a whole paints a very terrible picture.

I am dealing with multiple people with psychopathic tendencies...because, as the author says, even though they d9 these things, they might not be a psychopath.

Author definitely suffers from TDS, and provides anecdotal evidence of certain people being Psychopaths....

Blames Capitalism as the reason for the abundance and capacity of a psychopath to survive, but then states studies showing high % of elected officials in governments with psychopathy.

author believes that collectivist society will suppress psychopath, and minimise their power...
yet my experience is the exact opposite...
collectivist society, taking gvt roles as an example is the perfect area for a psychopath to thrive. playing groups of people off against other groups of people is what the psychopath desires...itputsthem in control.
author refers to pawns and patreons, in the psychopath side, and patsies and powerless on the opposite...

Beauracracy is the Psychopaths playground, and beauracracy is the enemy of a functional capitalist society. author draws wrong conclusions in my opinion, and personal ideology shines through.

a 100% honest society is a pipe dream, which will never happen...look at all of the collectivist societies in history, show me where the honest society was?

Well written, but as I have followed along this story, it is very difficult to follow The lead down this path of destruction...

I have had to take a break from the story as the betrayals done feel like betrayals to me as the reader, possibly even to the lead itself.

it's a hard read...particularly if emotionally invested...in the characters.

I was very upset at a certain point. but it was not as it seemed...and as the story progressed in the final endgame, I could appreciate the conclusion...

Absolutely loved it. Sorry this review is not more helpful, it's a fantasy story based on the God Of War games I believe...didn't matter, I throughly enjoyed it.

Definitely a fascinating read, a bit more detailed compared to the first book. I do disagree with a lot of what the author says, particularly blaming it all on Capitalism, but I would point out that all of the corruption and negative aspects all include the involvement of government entities in some form or another...Thus these are not true free markets...but none the less, a fascinating book

I quite enjoyed Shad's novel. The world felt decently built out, the "magic" in the world well explained I felt. a good listen, and an interesting World.

it was enjoyable, and I gave it a listen, but I would would have enjoyed it sooo much more if the author wasn't OVER emphasising the "Colonialism =Bad" narrative...

All 3 parts included in this version.
The narrator did a fantastic job bringing to life Redwall Abbey. I was transported back to 1996, when I first was introduced to Brian Jacques beautiful world of mice, badgers, rats, weasels and ferrets, owls otters, shrews, hares and foxes...It was purely by chance that I picked up the Redwall book at my school library, and let me tell you...

it was the stepping stone into an amazing new world and I couldn't put down the series since then. now more than 20 years later, I stand in my kitchen, with a tear or two in my eyes as the book comes to a close...as I bid farewell to the brave young mouse, but look forward to the next chapter in Brian Jacques Saga...

absolutely get this book. it's a must have in your fantasy world collection.

I have heard so many remarks on Capitalism is Bad. Socialism is Good.
There is absolutely nothing in this book of substance. Everything is basically a...
Trust me bro, Socialism will fix everything...
doesn't say how...just that it will.
