Was this written by a horny teenager?

Revisado: 04-11-22

Clues: (1) The narration is a bit dramatic insofar as the accentuated R’s and weirdly flourished words. (2) The main character is perfectly socratic—the kind of arrogant that earmarks a gamer bent on impressing you by his childhood DnD character’s awesomeness; (3) women fall over themselves and the main guy is just such a ladies man.

I quit listening leas than halfway through.

Wasn't 100% then realized I had to finish!

#1 - The narration is superb. The story was odd and slow to me at first (I mainly read a different genre of fiction). However, after a while, I realized that I was in--intrigued and involved. The author had roped me in, and I didn't even realize it. It made this aside from my normal genre a really fun and rewarding experience. I'll be buying her second book in this series!

More please!

Revisado: 02-10-21

This was a fun short story. I loved the mixture of old west and fantasy without the need to make it steampunk. If there's more to the story, I'm in!

Really enjoyed the unique take on the afterlife

Revisado: 02-10-21

This book is fresh. The fantasy world of Fuller is unlike any I've ever read, and it felt cohesive without leaving weird gaps everywhere. It felt like old-school Brandon Sanders. I am onboard for the next book in the series already. the only reason I didn't max out the stars was two reasons, but I can't really talk about both without spoilers. The narration felt stiff at times. And I wish the conversation with the wife at the end hadn't been included. That was a cliffhanger and not really a welcome one. It makes me think the next story will dive into that arena, and quite honestly, I dont want to go there. So, it's either really good writing that made me feel things, or needlessly turning character arcs into character circles.

Only read if you like hours upon hours of ...

Revisado: 02-10-21

... stats being narrated in exhaustive detail. For one segment of the book, I literally measured the amount of actual story progression compared to the stat recital. Aleron Kong has learned that he can "write" a book basically by filling pages with Richtor's stats and the Land's responses to Richtor fiddling around with them. It was truly awful. At one point in the book, there is zero meaningful story progression for over 3 hours.

Nick Podehl does his best, but listening to this book was like listening to someone read the NASDAQ stock ticker at the bottom of MSNBC.

Did Jim Butcher write this?

Revisado: 01-14-21

Who is Harry Dresden anymore? Is he just trying to be a dad? Is he a warden? Is he the sometimes down-and-out do-gooder-have staff will kick ass wizard of Chicago? Is he Lara Raith's bitch now? McCoy's enemy? He is all of those things and hollow as a result.

The writing in this book do not resemble Books 1-15.

Lame story, good telling makes me mad

Revisado: 01-11-20

This author obviously can tell a story--all the signs are there; but, this book is almost as entertaining as C-SPAN. I just couldn't get into the story. I'm going to try to return the book.

Intriguing! Especially if you love Data Science

Revisado: 09-13-18

I should have gone to bed, but this original kept me too intrigued to sleep! The narrator is good, though by the end of the book, he adds on a strange accent to the performance where before his inflection never wavered.

Stagnant and Uninteresting After 1 Hour

Revisado: 09-04-18

This book delivers no intrigue beyond the first hour. It meanders around some central characters but the main character (Nathaniel) seems to hold nothing in any special significance nor does the story provide potential for growth in the main or supporting characters. I listened for 3 hours, but after the first hour, the story becomes stagnant. I finally gave up after the story became one trivial recollection after another by Nathaniel.

Enjoyable For Faithful Followers

Revisado: 06-14-18

I'm not a big fan of mixed narrators. Some of the stories were so-so in their entertainment value, but as a whole the short stories are good and give every reader a little more insight into the various characters of the Dresden-verse.
