Probably Better in Print/ebook Format

Revisado: 03-23-25

I enjoyed this book but I was much more invested in the current storyline than the excerpts between chapters. They took me out of the story a bit and made the audiobook harder to get through. I think they would work better on a page than in audio format. I do recommend this book but if you're on the fence about audio or print/ebook, I would go with the latter.

Nice Fast-Paced Book

Revisado: 12-02-24

This was fast paced and enjoyable! The characters were likeable. It helped that I was already familiar with a few of them from Arthurian Legend and the Pendragon Cycle by Stephen Lawhead. Some parts felt rushed and I wished it was more fleshed out. It could have lingered on scenes longer, however I didn't mind that much because being too streamlined is preferable to having filler content--an issue a lot of other books have. I'll definitely be looking forward to more of Ian Wilson's work in the future.

5 stars for Andy Serkis

Revisado: 09-30-24

Andy Serkis is the best reader of these stories I have ever heard. Great job telling one of the greatest of all stories.

Terrible AI

Revisado: 06-13-24

I have seen some bad AI-generated images on Audible, but this might be the worst and the laziest. It's an insult to George MacDonald.

What a great exposition

Revisado: 06-30-23

Having grown up in a military family only a few years ahead of Tim Scott, part of my years in the deep south, I found a lot of this book highly relatable.

I love his story and his vision. I hope I get a chance to vote for him.

A wonderful ride

Revisado: 06-27-23

An endless stream of insights I find delightful. A deep journey into the many aspects of the lives of Nimoy and Shatner and their long friendship.
Nimoy is ... fascinating ... and Shatner is a remarkably gifted storyteller and a great, enjoyable narrator.
Listening is a touching and moving experience, and I was sad to reach the end.

Great characters, great storytelling, good story

Revisado: 06-27-23

A lengthy book in a very long series, but with the characters and storytelling I was happy to sit through the long ride.
Having multiple friends who have PTSD and are trauma survivors, I deeply appreciate the author's inclusion of this subject.

Good finale to the Saga

Revisado: 02-21-23

Some really great writing, some good, a little bit of "needs improvement." Overall, it is a satisfying end to the series, with the flavor of real life: redemption and victories come with costs.

Having helped some authors in the writing/publishing process, I would say this book, like the others in the series, is 2 to 4 re-write/edit cycles from being truly great.

Too long, and I love it

Revisado: 11-17-22

This book takes too long to make points, and repeats them too many times. And I loved every moment of it! A gripping and sweeping autobiography, and the author was only 35 when she wrote it. An incredibly hard and incredibly accomplished life. Tissue warning - there are a few parts that will rip your heart out, if you have one.

Super helpful and deep dive into motivations

Revisado: 09-27-22

Many statements of the author will raise your ire, as he outlines the benefits and some limitations of liberal, conservative, and libertarian viewpoints. You will probably either love or hate him frequently referring to Darwin and evolution, but stick with it because the payoff in insight is far more than worth being a bit offended here and there.
