Nothing Really Changes

It's tough listening to nothing of consequence happen for the first 20 hours. Love this series but you can tell this book is all set up for the next one. Some pretty questionable decisions are made out of character throughout the novel. Great weight is placed on decisions of little consequence while others of great magnitude just happen.

First 4 Hours are a Slog

The lectures despite having 2 narrators are quite dry and very similar to church sermons.

The first 4 Hours are really not about Nietzsche and just about his influences and the influences of his influences.

I was hoping having Nietzsche discussed in a lecture format would be more digestible in audio form than his writings that require contemplation that audio doesn't allow.

Good But Weakest of the 3

The story is good. The author often repeats himself like mentioning that he was too young to drink every time he tells a drinking story. The primary story only takes place from 1944-45 so we know the 17-18 year old obviously never turns 21 in that span.

If you had to choose between the 3 books used for the HBO series The Pacific, this is certainly the weakest of the 3.

I really enjoy this series. Later in the novel there's a few instances where the narrator does multiple attempts at the same line and keeps messing up. Surprised this wasn't caught in the editing. Also apparently no one at GW caught that he kept saying Leman Russ as Leman Roose.

The amount of overlapping names does at times make if difficult to follow which character is being referred to and to which faction they are from.
The ending is also quite abrupt.

Really enjoy the narrators and how well the format of the novels translates to audio. Reminds me a lot of Gaunt's Ghosts. Now please release the rest of the series on Audible! I want them all.

It's pretty straight forward from start to finish. Few twists along the way but the end was predictable enough.

Can never get enough Game of Thrones. It was great to see the Seven Kingdoms during the Targaryen reign.

The professor only once mentioned the War in Afghanistan in passing. It'd be like US history without talking about Vietnam. He also didn't speak of Stalin's death in any detail or about the effects of the victory over Germany and its effects on society. After speaking of the battle of Stalingrad it would seem to the uninformed that the war was essentially over.
