Ok yet cliche. Narration is monotone.

Revisado: 04-21-25

The story has legs but everything drips with cliches. It's hard to believe the narrator is an actor. He sucks the life out of the story. Everyone sounds the same, bland. Barely worth the credit.

Decent story, mediocre narration.

Revisado: 01-23-25

The story is worth a credit. However the narration is not. He is an ok reader but lacks any skill in voice variation for characters. What bothered me the most was the horrible editing. It constantly breaks the timing and makes it sound like hes reading individual syllables and words instead of the whole sentence to make it flow.

If you can tolerate the narration then it's worth a credit.

Meh. Lack luster.

Revisado: 10-28-24

It would be ok for a high school creative writing class but hardly prime time. The narrator is fair but sounds "juicy". Too much saliva? If you are writing a book about a blacksmith, learn the bare minimum about your subject.

Forced with too many clices.

Revisado: 05-23-24

Forced drama and suspense manufactured via ridiculous choices and actions by characters. It's very hard to believe this is a NYT best selling author. The story telling is on par with high school creative writing class. I would skip it and will not be continuing the series.

Meh. It's ok.

Revisado: 03-26-24

It's just ok. Feels like someone's first attempt at writing. I've listened to far worse but a whole lot better as well. The theme and plot or ok but the dragons are far too soft. The writing needs more teeth and the magic system has decent bones but needs refinement. It's a 3.5 so I rounded up to 4.

I just can't stomach it.

Revisado: 06-20-23

I forgot how much I hated the narration of previous books in this series. I love Travis, normally. However when he tries to be silly, goofy, slapstick, unhinged, etc its just SUCKS. Its not in his wheelhouse. So this story comes across as nausea inducing and geared towards a 5 year old. The story is only marginally better. Both the author and narrator have MUCH better offerings. Ignore this series and go find their better works.

To really get and enjoy The Frankening you have to listen to all 4 books. Its so Frank :) I hope the author keeps going with this series. Its a fun one.

A goofy good story that's intentionally silly.

Revisado: 04-13-23

Every now and then I need a silly book. This one does that well. Jokes, tropes, cliches, pop culture refs all over the place. If you loosen up and let yourself laugh at and with the story it's well worth your time.

If you are expecting a literary masterpiece, move on.

The biggest complaint I have with the books is with the narrator. He whispers too damn much and depending on what you are listening with you end up missing a lot of words. Oh and he isn't consistent with the badgers voice. I hate that.

Other that that Ive enjoyed all the books.

Meh. It's okay but nothing amazing.

Revisado: 04-13-23

I have nothing against cussing as long as it adds to the story. The amount of F-bombs tossed around rarely serve a purpose or add to the moment. The MC is an ok concept but the constant laughing and happy go lucky attitude don't fit the atmosphere for me.

For some reason I like that the author didn't feel the need to over explain or create some weak method of introducing the MC into the new world. She just showed up and went about her business.

The level of beginner luck and obscene OP boost at the start is a bit much but you gotta get the ball rolling somehow.

Overall its an ok story. The book length makes up for some of the authors lack of skill if you just need something to listen too.

Unredeamable

Revisado: 03-27-23

I have never encountered a MC that was so worthless. The only kudo I can give the author is in creating a MC that made me refund a book for the first time. There is only so much stupidity, selfishness, and arrogance I can take in every paragraph. What a waste of time and money.
