Good fun.

Good fun. I wish it moved a little more and resolved a little more epically but I enjoyed it. Would listen more.

Brutal and Interesting

Revisado: 02-20-25

It’s brutal and it’s different. Not YA or easygoing, but ultimately it’s good. It’s a good mix of things both familiar and unique.

The Performance is excellent the book is fun.

Revisado: 01-11-24

It’s pretty much in the title. Overall I wish it would have gotten somewhat more resolved at the end, but eh I get it, that’s what a sequel is for. It was still fun. I hope Ig gets a sequel to himself tbh.

I love almost everything

Revisado: 12-09-22

This story is pretty good, very visceral, the only thing that took me out of it was the narrator’s bad Adris Alba impersonation the entire time. Really not good, but the story made up for the awful ear quality imo.

Better than the sum of its parts

Revisado: 11-16-22

It’s not breaking a lot of new ground here. The setting is essentially Fallout 4, with a little bit of Mandolorian mixed in. That said it does a good job of keeping the action going and the characters are all pretty good too. I wouldn’t recommend if you’re looking for a post apocalyptic adventure.

Sure why not.

It’s okay. Not the best but worthy of a listen. The rpg bits could’ve been left out entirely and it wouldn’t have detracted.

Too Much Game not Enough Story

Revisado: 11-01-22

This book leverages far too much on the mechanics and is constantly smacking you with UI and numbers for the damage and MP. It gets in the way of telling the story and bogs down what little action there is. The rpg stuff should be for establishing a setting and the rules then should mostly take a backseat and allow the story to play out IMO. Decent but not worth the subsequent follow ups for me.

Pretty good.

Revisado: 10-18-22

Odd systems and weird intro in the the world. There is a little weakness to the plot that ties Ed’s earth with the world and some the action seems a little trite imo. Still overall it was fun enough and I’d like his abilities to build. I would be interested to see where it goes.

The narrator seems off.

Revisado: 07-28-22

The narrator does okay but the read sounds like a transcript of two non-English speaking people or something. It’s like the slight pauses between words are off or strangely emphasized. I can’t even really put a finger on it but it was hard to get around.

Boring!

Revisado: 09-01-21

I think this author thought that the massive amounts of time that passed during this book made it more interesting than it did. He does about three feats of actual magic in the whole book and one is conjuring a hanky. The vast majority of the book is spent with the main character running from place to place to warn people about things, that then fall flat without much impact or drama or excitement.
