This struck me as YA

Revisado: 12-14-22

I’m a huge Sanderson fan, and this book is quality like the rest of his work. I do feel it’s a bit more geared to a younger audience, which I believe was the intention. I might have this as a starting point for older children so that I can hook them and graduate them to the more complex works that he’s done, like Stormlight archives. Still, I enjoyed the listen and the narrator was top notch.

An interesting way to storytell

Revisado: 06-18-22

The book jumps between 3 time periods following different events, and I enjoyed how they connected together. It can be a bit stingy with the Lore but overall I’m hooked into the series. Not your typical sci fi/fantasy take.

Breaks the stereotypes

Revisado: 02-06-20

This book had a lot of twists, but it was mostly because it doesn’t do the predictable things this genre tends to do. Perfect for fantasy and sci-fi fans alike, and well performed as well.

How have I never heard of this?

Revisado: 03-05-19

I can’t believe I’ve never read this until now. Great story- the Steampunk tech is so rich, it draws you in. The performer not only has amazing voice acting, but manages to deliver dialogue with more expression than I’ve ever heard on an audio book. I’d actually seek out more by this performer just to hear him- he’s that good. Highly recommended if you are a fan of sci fi, adventure, or fantasy - or just good books well read.

Military Tactics, Politics, bugs

Revisado: 02-19-19

More of an exploration of military life with a sci-fi twist. A lot of philosophy and political discussions, but a good story. Performance is nearly unlistenable- performer puts equal gusto into a grunt shouting orders or a female lead flirting with the protagonist - that is to say, very little. Still, finished it and don’t regret it.

Like Earth 2 for the Dresden Files

Revisado: 06-25-17

Great lore and great story, will definitely be continuing the series. The rules of magic in this world are a bit more flexible, and there are times where I didn't quite follow how certain things could happen within the rules the author had laid down, but those moments are vastly outweighed by the varied and colorful world portrayed in the story. I look forward to exploring all the roads that are opened up in this first installment.

Great light fantasy

Revisado: 02-23-17

Narrated well, this story isn't going to challenge you intellectually, but it has solid lore and a storyline that is somewhat predictable, but entertaining nonetheless.
