Historia
Having barely survived the Lands Beyond, Tolan recuperates while preparing for the next attack. His closest allies are gone, leaving him floundering for answers, along with his place in the Academy. Tolan must protect Terndahl, before the elementals attack. After years spent teaching others the elementals were no danger, he fears the repercussions of changing course. When even an elemental warrior might not be enough, Tolan must find the elemental nature within him.

Wonderful endcap to a saga
Revisado: 02-21-24
I’ve now read Tolen’s story as far as it’s been written and while I find some of the devices used throughout the series repetitive, we wouldn’t have much tension if the lead character had it all figured out the first go round. The world building, the magic, the elements, and bonds all work together in symphony to create an imaginative and unique experience for the reader. What could have been called a HP rip off originally, ended up nothing of the sort. I would love to read the future adventures Tolen gets into if it were ever to be written.

Historia
More than 3,000 years have passed since the first events recorded in Dune. Only one link survives with those tumultuous times: the grotesque figure of Leto Atreides, son of the prophet Paul Muad'Dib, and now the virtually immortal God Emperor of Dune. He alone understands the future, and he knows with a terrible certainty that the evolution of his race is at an end unless he can breed new qualities into his species.

Surprising
Revisado: 06-01-22
I didn’t think I would like this continuation of the dune history but stuck with it and I’m glad I did. This chronicle of a long life lived for one goal is intricate and it’s easy to envision the world of dune at this era in its history.

A must read for any fantasy fan
Revisado: 01-19-22
This introduction into the word that has been created by Robin Hobb is so immersive that you can’t help but believe every detail. I’ve read all of her books no less than 2 times and most, like this one, I’m on my 4-5th read. The performance of the story only amplifies it making it further come to life as you get to know the intimate details of fitz chivalry and the Farseeer world.

A book about podcasting should be a high quality podcast
Revisado: 06-25-21
I free like the story these authors have to share is a good one but the production leaves something to be desired. Things like filler words, background noises, um’s, ah’s, and all the junk I pull out of podcasts to reduce distractions should have never lived to see the light of day in what should be a blue print for how we did it and how you can too. Shut it off after 20 minutes because I couldn’t do it any longer.

Super eye opening content
Revisado: 01-25-19
Loved the writing style and the eye opening content. The presentation from the author made it all the more identifiable and real. The only reason I mark down the production was the audio quality was not the quality I normally expect from my audible purchase. The text was clear but between the interruptions of the voice with the twang in his voice and the lackluster EQ on the authors recording I had to make the conscious decision to ignore it. Small things that add up. Once again the content is totally worth it and I’m nitpicking. READ THIS BOOK! It’s information has generational impact when applied to our daily lives.

Historia
Captain Talis just wants to keep her airship crew from starving, and maybe scrape up enough cash for some badly needed repairs. When an anonymous client offers a small fortune to root through a pile of atmospheric wreckage, it seems like an easy payday. The job yields an ancient ring, a forbidden secret, and a host of deadly enemies. Now on the run from cultists with powerful allies, Talis needs to unload the ring as quickly as possible. Her desperate search leads to a planetary battle between a secret society, alien forces, and even the gods themselves.

Amazing
Revisado: 04-10-18
I can’t wait for the next book. I wish I’d had the time to sit down and read this straight through from start to finish. I would have held my attention. Inventive, unique, and merging so many aspects of both Sci-fi and fantasy into one your left with awe and wonder that they can coexist so peaceably. As stated before I cannot wait for the next installment and look forward to all that the author has of the world of Peridot.

Historia
alaxy. Humanity was slowly making their way out from Earth to the planets and asteroids of the Solar System, exploring and mining and founding colonies. The mining ship El Cavador is far out from Earth, in the deeps of the Kuiper Belt, beyond Pluto. Other mining ships, and the families that live on them, are few and far between this far out. So when El Cavador's telescopes pick up a fast-moving object coming in-system, it's hard to know what to make of it. It's massive and moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light.

Historia
The first invasion of Earth was beaten back by a coalition of corporate and international military forces and the Chinese army. China has been devastated by the Formic's initial efforts to eradicate Earth life forms and prepare the ground for their own settlement. The Scouring of China struck fear into the other nations of the planet; that fear blossomed into drastic action when scientists determined that the single ship that wreaked such damage was merely a scout ship. There is a mothership out beyond the solar system's Kuiper Belt, and it's heading into the system.

Interesting conclusion to story
Revisado: 02-01-15
Well it times this section of the overall story was hard to follow I enjoyed being able to see the conclusion of this grouping of books. I found that because of the multiple instances of each character and the jumping around and time that it was hard to stayconsistent with the rest of the story or at least know where I was in the causal time as they would say in the book. Overall I like the book and I don't think that it was a bad read it all. Unless you're really good at keeping up with complicated story lines I wouldn't read the book.
