Story is well constructed, POV main character except when the author occasionally puts in a comment. Characters are real and likable.
Narrator is perfect for the story!
Charming, lively and lovely, funny. I’m very glad I chose this book and am going to start the second one as soon as I finish this review!
PS. It’s not a pocket guide. ;

Since this book is a repeat of Kushiels Dart, from Jocelyn’s viewpoint, I thought it would be a bit of a ripoff. But the beginning is all new, and his viewpoint of the shared action is definitely different enough to be interesting. Though he is a bit whiny about ‘breaking his vows’. The repetition gets tiring though a valid reaction as young as he is, and as dedicated as he is to his faith.
A genuine addition to Phaedre’s saga. But I hope Carey doesn’t continue his view through 2 more books. That would be a ripoff.

Valdemar and Mercedes Lackey are wonderful but.
The big river attack has an obvious possible preventative option. The dolls could instantly communicate the need of a distraction without taking time or tiring Ariel. Rose could suggest it if Cordes couldn’t see it. The battle would still happen due to other factors but Cordes’ dithering is really annoying and goes on too long. And at the end the ‘everything is my fault’ gets tiring too. As the mages tell him!

I love this series, but this one has a lot of similarities to previous books. Deaths by cyanide; tracking down the poison source through a connection; extreme egotism and prior death in the past.
Even so, I enjoyed it!
Maybe foreshadowing of Eve’s burning out on street crime, acceptance of Captain’s bars?

Hello, is Jacobson supposed to be Jenkinson?
And Louise has grey eyes not hazel.
It’s distracting.
Characters and story are great as always. Nice character growth for Peabody and Eve.

Dana White writes clearly, simply, and for many types of people. Her basic 4 Daily Tasks are time limited and ‘easy to start’ with in your process.
Simple and time limited steps make it easier to get over the inertia and begin doing. Thank you Dana!

Jim Dale is a very good reader, but Hermione’s voice is very whiny. Don’t know if this is a British ’valley girl’ accent , but I didn’t like it.
Otherwise the characters’ voices are really good and enjoyable. The story is wonderful, and it’s nice to hear the full story instead of the movie abbreviations.

This is a wonderful book. Such a window into mind of an autistic person; his coping skills and the coping mechanisms of the people around him. Christopher is such a heart warming person. Thank you!

I have always enjoyed Weber’s balance of story and technical info, but he has tipped over into too technical for me. I’m sure many readers enjoy all the specs of weapons and tactics; I end up blurring over most of a chapter and losing the story events in the data flood.
I will still buy his work in print and audio. It is still very enjoyable. But!

Peter Larkin does great voices (I really like Ganny!) but the volume of his voice is sometimes inaudible.
Great story, getting as convoluted with multiple lines/POV; but managed well by Weber.
