Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Great story, weak dialogue
Revisado: 07-07-23
While the story was great, the constant use of profanity was over the top, and used in a forced unnatural way that weakened the dialogue.

In his landmark best seller The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell redefined how we understand the world around us. Now, in Blink, he revolutionizes the way we understand the world within. Blink is a book about how we think without thinking, about choices that seem to be made in an instant, in the blink of an eye, that actually aren't as simple as they seem. Why are some people brilliant decision makers, while others are consistently inept?

Malcolm Gladwell is a great storyteller and succeeds at showing just how important it is to trust your instincts, while also using good judgement.

For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed. For a thousand years the Skaa slaved in misery and lived in fear. For a thousand years the Lord Ruler, the "Sliver of Infinity," reigned with absolute power and ultimate terror, divinely invincible. Then, when hope was so long lost that not even its memory remained, a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa rediscovered it in the depths of the Lord Ruler's most hellish prison.

For Durzo Blint, assassination is an art---and he is the city's most accomplished artist, his talents required from alleyway to courtly boudoir. For Azoth, survival is precarious, something you never take for granted. As a guild rat, he's grown up in the slums and learned to judge people quickly---and to take risks. Risks like apprenticing himself to Durzo Blint. But to be accepted, Azoth must turn his back on his old life and embrace a new identity and name.

Disappointing at best.
Revisado: 01-21-15
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
Anyone who enjoys weak character development and very inappropriate use of the 'F'-Bomb.
Would you ever listen to anything by Brent Weeks again?
NO
What didn’t you like about Paul Boehmer’s performance?
Narration was OK
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment that a potentially great story could be so poorly written.
Any additional comments?
Once you invest 20 hours listening to this book you'll wish you hadn't, and unfortunately you can never get it back.

Great for sleep
Revisado: 01-15-15
I have a busy schedule and I often find myself trying to sleep but troubled with a head full of thoughts. Complete relaxant helps me clear my head and fall asleep. I sleep better when I listen to it. I highly recommend it.

Ten years ago, Calamity came. It was a burst in the sky that gave ordinary men and women extraordinary powers. The awed public started calling them Epics. But Epics are no friend of man. With incredible gifts came the desire to rule. And to rule man you must crush his will. Nobody fights the Epics...nobody but the Reckoners. A shadowy group of ordinary humans, they spend their lives studying Epics, finding their weaknesses, and then assassinating them. And David wants in. He wants Steelheart - the Epic who is said to be invincible. The Epic who killed David's father.

Great story. Okay narration. Bad language.
Revisado: 07-28-14
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
There are two things that would have influenced me to rate this audio book higher. 1. The book has some bad language. I feel swear words were used unnecessarily. 2. The narration was hard to follow during conversations between characters. After listening to several hours of the book I was still unable to pick who was speaking during conversations between two people because the narrator didn't change his voice in any way. Every character sounded the same.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
I think the narrator should have used more inflection to his voice when speaking as different characters.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Blood Song?
I would not have cut any scenes from Blood Song, just the bad language.
Any additional comments?
Overall, I like the story. I loved the idea of the Orders and the world this author was able to create and portray. The bad language and poor narration are what weaken this audio book. I'm sad to read in the reviews of the sequel that the language gets worse... Sadly, I won't be listening to it because of that.
