Wonderful!

Revisado: 04-30-23

I see I get honor of the first review.

The world the author created is both deep and captivating, with well-developed characters and a rich system of magic. I especially appreciated the fact that the main protagonists were female. We have series after series of young men struggling to find their way in the world. The scales were tipped a bit with this work.

If you have ever read and enjoyed the works of Brandon Sanderson, Robert Jordan or N.K. Jemisin, you will enjoy this series from Tiffany Brazzell.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first in this series, but this installment really showed Ms. Brazzell coming into her own as an author. I suspect we will see many more great works from her in the future.

The narrator, Emily Lawrence, should also be commended. I don’t often look into the narrator’s body of work, but she impressed me. A narrator can either elevate or diminish an authors work. She was a great fit for this tale.

Disappointing

Revisado: 04-06-22

I was excited to learn about these heroes. But first the audio quality sounded like it was recorded in a tile bathroom. I thought, “No worries. I can deal with that. I still want to hear these stories.”
Then, the author started interjecting his own political views into the story. I thought that was disrespectful to the men who he was trying to honor. These stories should be just about the men who served America. An America with patriots on both sides of the isle. In bringing his own partisan views into it he was making it about himself. Totally disrespectful. I opted to end the listening and pick something that was more thoughtfully written.

A poem

Revisado: 12-11-20

This was amazing. Every sentence was crafted as if in Renaissance marble. True poetry.
Thank you for sharing your experiences. It has helped me see my own life in a different light; through a lens of forgiveness and understanding. I’m sure it will be a balm to many.

Great, but unnecessarily derivative

Revisado: 07-09-20

I’m loving this series, but the authors include derivative elements when they are obviously talented enough not to. So many of the battles in this series are just retellings of historical battles: Mogadishu, The Battle of Camp Keating etc...

Even more distracting are the parallels to Star Wars and Lord of the Rings.

Tri-Fighters=Tie Fighters
Goth Sullus=Darth Vader
Crux=Force
One ring to rule them all=One ring to rule them all
Tyrus Rechs=Boba Fett or The Mandalorian
Wraith=Han Solo

All totally unnecessary and distracting to an otherwise great series.

Superb

Revisado: 03-28-20

An amazing book. I loved that the author knew intimately the subtleties of nature, having obviously experienced it. So many authors write about nature and interacting with it in such a way as to illuminate the fact that they’ve never been out of a big city.
The characters were well fleshed out and believable. And the dialog? Outstanding. He captured, not only the way rural people speak, but also how they think. It would be easy to slip into cliche, but he didn’t.
I can’t wait to read his next books.

A great story, and more importantly, an interesting glimpse of a culture most of us would never know about otherwise.
Thanks for the journey!

Required reading

Revisado: 07-23-19

So I’ve been reading this book. It’s amazing. I think it’s something every artist or craftsman should read. His philosophies about planning, work flow, momentum killers, and iteration would be of benefit to everyone who creates.

Exquisite

Revisado: 06-12-19

As always, G.G.K. delivers a soulful, gripping and memorable story. And, a great oblique view of what life may have been like in the Italian States around the end of the Byzantine era.
