Interesting!

Revisado: 03-17-24

Fun and enlightening, although a little drier than expected. Somewhere between cool history and lord of the flies

Thoughtful and Thought Provoking

Revisado: 03-12-24

Full of careful and boundless creativity, passionate yet scientific discussion of virtues like responsibility, duty, knowledge, and priority. At times dense scientific jargon I couldn’t understand, at times eerily logical sociological treatise, and at times lengthy and loving crafted character piece. This series defied expectation and taught me a lot.

For SF fans

Revisado: 01-26-24

Brilliant and technical; half thriller and half textbook.
For a sci-fi fan, the frustratingly long and evenly-distributed scientific expositions seem to be popular. For a casual sci-fi reader, and via audio especially, I find myself getting less and less interested as the paragraphs of technical jargon flow through one ear and out the other.
But I stuck it out because, despite this, the setting, story, and gravity of this book are simply too good to abandon. The heady thought experiments, dual story telling methods, blend of historical, realistic, and futuristic settings, all wrapped up in down to earth yet unique and interesting characters. The story takes some set up, but whether you enjoy that or not, it pays off. Shoutout to Ken Liu ☯️

Narrator is good, story is confusing until reread

Revisado: 01-13-24

This narrator is great although some accents seemed misplaced like scottish on one eye was odd. also some stilted sentences that disrupted or changed the meaning and interpretation of what was said. his sad monotonous almost narrator voice was great for murgan and i felt fit perfectly

the story took me 2 reads to understand fully i love this book now but it can stop a series read through with its odd pacing and it starts plot wise along the last book

definitely my 3rd favorite of the black company now though after 1 and 2 and highly recommend

Does honor to a timeless masterpiece

Revisado: 05-23-23

Adds back value to a masterpiece of spiritual and literary writing which I will never get a chance to read without translation. A line in to the world of translating and writing. Well researched and deeply felt crafting both as a book and as an audiobook experience. Ken Liu has not hoarded the treasure of his journey, but given it to us.

Great acting, weak story

Revisado: 05-19-23

Tonally confused between PG family romp and witty adult adventure. Drama had potential but was so lost in chapters of constant and meaningless Happy Hour peril sequences. Over the top characters in an over the top world. Lots of potential, great audio, but very boring and underwhelming story.

It was nice

Revisado: 05-13-23

Slow, cool, and short. Cool images and a good performance backed up with a simple story and somewhat forgettable characters. Some of the deeper threads don’t lead anywhere, but the scenery and imagery itself is good enough. Spoilers: also why would Welsh be cool with this elaborate scheme to kill what’s his name? Why not just go get him? Isn’t this plan much more conspicuous?

Not as good as the first one but still great

Revisado: 08-17-22

A little too many scenes of people just crying for an hour but besides that it was a really great book
