Historia
There's a reason We Are Legion was named Audible's Best Science Fiction Book of 2016: Its irresistibly irreverent wit! Bob Johansson has just sold his software company for a small fortune and is looking forward to a life of leisure. The first item on his to-do list: Spending his newfound windfall. On an urge to splurge, he signs up to have his head cryogenically preserved in case of death. Then he gets himself killed crossing the street. Waking up 117 years later, Bob discovers his mind has been uploaded into a sentient space probe with the ability to replicate itself.

Read it even if the title and desc are dumb
Revisado: 01-23-23
I'm one of those who was recommended this series over and over again but never read it because the title and description just sound dumb. Finally read them all and am a Bob convert. Thoroughly enjoyed them all and am waiting for more!

love the series, this one is weak
Revisado: 07-22-22
The storytelling is great but the reasons why everything happens don't make sense. I'm confused and disappointed.

great story, distracting narration
Revisado: 12-27-20
I don't know why producers choose to switch narrators for the same character voices. It is so distracting. Choosing just one good narrator would be so much better. The story is really good though. I recommend it.

Historia
In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born. But Circe is a strange child—not powerful, like her father, nor viciously alluring like her mother. Turning to the world of mortals for companionship, she discovers that she does possess power—the power of witchcraft, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves.

Beautiful and thoughtful
Revisado: 02-16-20
In the beginning I enjoyed this book for the way she brought the gods to life; better in the telling and creativity than others I have read. As the story progressed, I found myself pulled in by the emotions. I did not enjoy her other book, the Song of Achilles, but I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

just gets better
Revisado: 10-29-19
Each time I read a Michael Sullivan book I like him more and more. He is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. I think the stories are fantastic and the characters are incredibly well painted. I often laugh out loud when I hear their dialogue.

Revisado: 10-12-19
I loved the Riyria revelations and was looking forward to this but didn't expect more than to visit old friends. I was pleasantly surprised that the adventure was just as enjoyable. I'm amazed by the creativity that Michael Sullivan has to be able to weave all these complex details into the spaces of the future (this being a prequel). He's definitely moved up on my list of favorite authors.

Hadrian Blackwater, a warrior with nothing to fight for, is paired with Royce Melborn, a thieving assassin with nothing to lose. Hired by an old wizard, they must steal a treasure that no one can reach. The Crown Tower is the impregnable remains of the grandest fortress ever built and home to the realm’s most prized possessions. But it isn’t gold or jewels that the wizard is after, and if he can just keep them from killing each other, they just might succeed.

Trapped in a conspiracy bigger than they can imagine, their only hope is unraveling an ancient mystery - before it’s too late.

Good character development and storytelling
Revisado: 09-15-19
There are many elements of this story that are standard fantasy fare but they are used in a unique enough way that the story is still entertaining and suspenseful. The characters are also well developed and engaging. I've been looking for a new series that is layered yet not overly dark and this one fits the bill. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Historia
On the island of Kekon, the Kaul family is locked in a violent feud for control of the capital city and the supply of magical jade that endows trained Green Bone warriors with supernatural powers they alone have possessed for hundreds of years. Beyond Kekon's borders, war is brewing. Powerful foreign governments and mercenary criminal kingpins alike turn their eyes on the island nation. Jade, Kekon's most prized resource, could make them rich - or give them the edge they'd need to topple their rivals.

I grew up on fantasy and on martial arts films. This series is the perfect blend of them and the narrator is superb. Can't wait for more!

entertaining and unique
Revisado: 08-20-19
Thoroughly enjoyed this book and The Rook. The narrator for The Rook was, in turns, extraordinary and deeply annoying and distracting (she had a very strange cadence but was fantastic at accents). This narrator was extraordinary and not at all annoying. I do think The Rook was a better story and less predictable than Stilleto but both are definitely worth the read. Looking forward to the next installment.
