A+ Faction Intrigue

Revisado: 08-02-24

Gripping plot. Inspiring faction power struggle. Well thought out character archs.

AI narration works just fine - 100 times more enjoyable than previous "bot" read audiobooks

Great set up for the finale

Revisado: 08-16-23

I know a-lot of complaints are on here because of the change to the narration structure but I personally prefer having one narrator. The audio quality at times was not great though, perhaps just studio issues with the recordings. The story is fantastic and a great set up for 'Red God'. It isn't as dark as 'Dark Age' was but still has very adult themes and visceral combat and killing. I throughly enjoyed this novel and will continue to read anything Brown writes.

They Never See You Coming Do They?

Revisado: 11-24-22

This is perhaps the best novella/short story book I've ever read. I have read/listened to it five or six times now. Lehane has an ability to write such realistic and lovable characters. He also write characters you want to see killed, needless to say he write characters very well. Im a huge fan of this book and think anyone who likes any crime or suspense stories will love this.

Great Adventure Novel

Revisado: 11-24-22

This is a Great Adventure novel and a better book than the first in the series. The end of the book is fantastic and will make you use a credit on the Dragon Reborn as soon as you finish this book.

Hitting its stride

Revisado: 11-24-22

I didn't really enjoy Eye of the World and it took me awhile to start the series again. The Great Hunt was a great adventure novel but the Dragon Reborn is a great epic fantasy that you can see that Jordan was hitting his stride. Highly recommended.

Solid Follow up

Revisado: 11-24-22

As a huge fan of the 1995 film Heat I was shocked when I heard they were releasing a sequel/prequel book to the film. The time jumps are done well and the characters come off exactly like they did in the film. I'm a huge fan of this novel. Will listen to it again for sure.

I don’t understand why this exist.

Revisado: 07-29-22

I’ll start with the narration and tell you that it’s good and doesn’t take you out of the story whatsoever. The story on the other hand is pointless, I had to go back to a few chapters because I realized I couldn’t remember anything from that chapter just to realize that nothing happened of any importance in that chapter. The first five hours of the book isn’t world building or even great character building, it’s just fluff that means nothing. I don’t know who this book is written for because the Doctor Moreau stuff feels pointless and any fans of the original H.G Wells books will certainly not like this book. It’s a mediocre love story shoehorned into a less interesting Island of Dr Moreau. Stay clear unless you just really love this authors work and want to support her. I returned the book because it wasn’t worth the credit I used on it.

Short Version- pointless story that goes no where and wastes the entire Island of Doctor Moreau premise.

Well written but in the end very pointless.

Revisado: 02-18-22

By the end of it I didn’t care what was happening and the story development was lacking. Characters were boring and I cared very little for them. Not worth a credit.

Just never liked the new characters

Revisado: 10-26-21

I love Abercrombie and his style, but I just never cared for the new POV characters in this trilogy and by the end of this book I was hoping they would all die. I like flawed characters but I felt like most of the characters in this trilogy were barely likable at best.
