It was an absolutely great story with fantastic narration. The plot was exceptional, featuring excellent character development, an engaging arc, and thrilling action. I enjoyed it from beginning to end.

Great narration by Brand, but not enough to save the drudgery of this story

Revisado: 12-04-24

This is one of the biggest disappointments I’ve had with a book series. I thoroughly enjoyed the previous books. The last book was starting to feel a bit slow, but it was still very good. This book, except for the last three chapters, was a real struggle to get through. It read like tedious, mundane journal entries. For the majority of the book, nothing much happened to advance the story. The ending was fantastic and will probably be enough to make readers forget about how difficult it was to get there. However, despite being a great ending, it was not enough to overcome how monotonous the rest of the book was. I’m going to read the next book because I’m too far in and invested in the series. But I won’t be excited about it.

Good story. Terrible ending.

Revisado: 08-25-24

Story was interesting but the ending was lacking yo say the least. The performance was great.

Great information and easily understandable

Revisado: 05-22-24

This book is full of fantastic information and delivered in such a way that most if not everyone can easily understand, or at least get the big picture items. The content in this book made me reevaluate areas of my lifestyle that I thought were good and reconsider how good in this context should be defined.

The last 1/3 was great.

Revisado: 05-28-23

The last of this book was really great and enjoyable. Unfortunately, the first 2/3 are a slugfest. I understand it’s the author was trying to do something relatively clever by jumping two different periods of time in the story. I think it would’ve worked well if it was either for a much shorter, duration, or revealing the numerous ambiguities in the beginning, would have occurred more gradually through out, rather than just basically all at once, after chapter 40. Just too much of a chore to get to the big reveal.

Great except...

Revisado: 05-03-20

I won’t add any spoilers, cannot explain fully, but this would be 5 stars if were not for the ending. Steven Brand does a fantastic job narrating, as usual.

One of the best narrators out there

Revisado: 07-18-15

The story was entertaining and a quick listen. It is an interesting concept that definitely pulls you in. But the highlight is the excellent narration of Ray Porter. This is the fifth book I listen to with his narration. The guy has been outstanding every time.
