Historia
Naval Officer Jack Samson thought a posting to the frontier of human-inhabited space was the death blow to his career. He couldn't have been more wrong. A routine inspection of a small merchant vessel leads to devastating loss and the discovery of strange, fascinating objects. As astonishing discoveries unfold, a mysterious and hostile ship proves that Samson has a competitor in unlocking the secrets of an ancient alien civilization and that humanity might not be alone in the galaxy after all.

Duncan at his finest
Revisado: 07-31-22
Not the usual Duncan M. Hamilton, but it is. He excels at telling stories, and briging them to life. Yet again, he has done exactly that, and left me wanting more. Yes, more! I cannot wait for the next instalment. This was absolutely brilliant, and I wan't the rest of the tale. So will you...

Historia
After forming a coalition of human resistance against the enemy invasion, Dalinar Kholin and his Knights Radiant have spent a year fighting a protracted, brutal war. Neither side has gained an advantage, and the threat of a betrayal by Dalinar’s crafty ally Taravangian looms over every strategic move. Now, as new technological discoveries by Navani Kholin’s scholars begin to change the face of the war, the enemy prepares a bold and dangerous operation. The arms race that follows will challenge the very core of the Radiant ideals.

Not Sanderson's Finest
Revisado: 12-09-20
I'm sure this book is great, but would be better read as opposed to the audio format. I found it too hard to follow, with too much jumping back and forth. finally 18hrs in, I gave up.

Ferrin is no ordinary blacksmith. He is born with magic in a world where it’s not only feared, but outlawed. Struggling to keep food on the table, Ferrin decides to use his gift to aid in his work. That decision brings the Black Watch to his doorstep. Caged alongside a helpless band of half-starved wielders, Ferrin formulates a strategy to escape.

A Brilliant Intro
Revisado: 06-25-20
I have the other books in this series, and love them. So much so that I have them on both Kindle and Audible. I'm also tempted to buy them for my analogue book collection too.
So when this prequel novella came along, buying it was a no brainer. It doesn't disappoint. So regardless of whether or not you have read the series to date or are just discovering this book as an intro, do yourself a favour and listen to it. The narration is impeccable, and compliments the story no end. The story could stand alone without this and still be brilliant, and I cannot recommend this book enough. Buy it. you'll be glad you did!
tl;dr - listen to this as Michael and Tim have again excelled at his craft and done a brilliant job on this book.

Audio Issues
Revisado: 04-22-20
It's cheap because the audio is rubbish. It skips, jumps, repeats and sounds like a scratched record at least a dozen times.
If you can live with that buy it. Personally I'd suggest putting your credits into the books separately.

Sheer Brilliance
Revisado: 03-01-20
Once again Mr Hamilton has peoduced an absolute cracker! The changes in tempo roll on like a concerto, and the narrator makes these work perfectly.
In short: A brilliant story wonderfully narrated. A must listen.

Historia
For thousands of years, stories had been told of the terrible Sorceress who'd given all her power to end the ancient world. But those were just stories. Now, new stars dot the sky - signs of Sorceress Jocina's power returning so she can finish the job. For A’banna, these signs mark the end of her service to the Sorceress as priestess. Commanded to sacrifice a living being in Jocina's name, she can't go through with it. A’banna flees into the jungle, hunted by Jocina’s sadistic son and her monstrous creations. Nature itself seems set against her.

Rubbish

The narrator has done a brilliant job of trying to redeem this pitiful excuse for a book, but even his skills couldn't save it.

Who will win? Who will lose? Will anyone survive? The only way to know is to get listening.
This is a superb finalisation of the trilogy, despite my apathy towards a book 2 that I thought could have been better. Absolutely worth listening to.

The White Tower sequel follows the first without the author feeling the need to continually rehash the story from the first book. Add to that, the narration by Tim Gerard Reynolds, and you have an audiobook that is all killer, no filler.
Bring on the 3rd instalment!
