story used every political left boogeyman that could be used. Just as bad as many secular books that make ALL Christians out to be half-crazed, your going to H*LL screaming maniacs. a better story would be subtle and show how folks on both sides of the spectrum would be lost while doing what they think is "right".

This is the perfect fantasy book if your actually looking for fantasy and NOT a thinly valed romance novels...with magic! all of the characters are well formed and believable. the stroy transitions through multiple locations and encounters without feeling over wrought or rushed. I enjoyed all the character interactions and the level of intrigue as almost everyone has an ulteriulterior motive or a secret. Great read that leaves you wanting more!

Repetitive And Contrived

Thr world the author created is pretty interesting and the various characters are all intriguing but the reperepetitive nature of the "internal commentary" from book to book and chapter to chapter is a bit tiresome. I'm almost left feeling like these are filler lines to draw out the word count. Especially when the internal commentary (in many cases) is followed up by the same information being shared externally with the other characters. This is fine when what the main (focal) character is thinking one thing but saying another, but these stories more often than not repeats the exact same dialogue both internally and externally. Last annoyance is the main character reprepeatedly saying they will do what ever it takes to prevent the problem while doing exactly the stuff that creates the problem. Too bad because I really like the world and most of the characters.

Great Story With Excellent Narration

this is a great story that achieves the goal of asking probing questions about where we came from, what is the purpose of life, what is it to be human and the struggle for each of us to be the best version of ourselves without the self sabotage.

the Narration Isn't Bad...It's Intentional

at first I thought the narration by the female lead was a subpar effort but then it hit me that it was intentional. the thing that made it click was how bad the writing also seemed for the Amety character. It read like a book report by a middle school kid who vacilated between being age appropriate to sounding like they used a thesaurus to find $10 words when $1 words will do. I stopped listening three times because her part was just so over-wrought and verbose like a kid trying to hit the mandated word count...and that's when it all clicked because that was exactly the point! the book became less infuriating at that point and more appreciative of teachers who have to listen through 20 book reports that sound just like this.

This was a solid story with the exception of the leads narrating how they know what not to do because of their love of reading as they are doing the thing they say not to do! That was more maddening then ironic to me but another solid offering from Mr. Koontz!

Any chance this could ve tied into the Moonlight Bay series?

I struggled to make it through this book. it wasn't that the concept was difficult or the premise so deep that I couldn't plum ots depths. I just didn't like any of the characters and found myself continuously asking myself why am I listening to this. I'm not a romance novel reader and most every character was the worst variant of the archetype they are modeled on. I eventually just had to Tapout and move on to a different book.

Narrator has a great voice for sleep stories! not boring just spoke at a timber that will have you asleep if you aren't actively doing something (like driving lol).
