It takes a second or 2 but this series is awesome!

Revisado: 09-18-24

Wow I am not sure how I hadn't heard of this series but damn it is really great. Maybe it is just me and it really speaks to me but it is so good, the first one pulls you in slowly building and creating a wild cast of characters and a world to match. The second book keeps building the success of the 1st which often times is a lot harder and though I haven't finished the third yet (I have 3 more hours) It has not disappointed yet.. The writing is clever and at the same time childishly raw. Captivating, is the word that leaps to mind. Congrats Seth McDuffee you have a new fan and WOW Johnathan McClain is unbelievable and the Narrator. Just do yourself a favor and download it already!

I really wanted to like this but the MC is awful

Revisado: 02-20-24

I started out enjoying this book and thought ok the MC is a little over the top. Then a few more chapters in I decided she was bipolar, manipulative and just plain awful. I kept going hoping perhaps she would mature or be a somewhat decent human being but wow, the fact that she represents "earth" is just plain discouraging. I think it reads like a young adult novel, the MC certainly acts immature and it leans toward that faux romance Twilight sort of styling. I did finish the book, I kept hope that it would improve. Honestly, I had hoped that the other books would have some redemption but reading the reviews it seems as though this is the path for this series. It is too bad I think there is a good premise there but the MC just killed it for me. The Narration was excellent for the record.

Well written conclusion ? to the Dirk Cooper story

Revisado: 02-08-24

Perhaps it is the end perhaps it isn't. I think it could go either way but the book is so well written and the story so neatly sewn together it could end here and it would be a good ending. I enjoyed this book greatly, Dirk and the rest of the characters are well written and plot line is not as predictable as you might think. I highly recommend both books in this series and will watch to see if there is a third.

I want more Grim Guys !

Revisado: 10-09-23

At first I was not sure if this was just going to be another adaptation of Good Guys and Bad Guys series but though they all take place in the same world. This series could live completely outside the interplay of the other two. I would be completely fine with that but I could also see them come together at some point. I like the brothers. their adventures and the the world they play in. Seems like a fun break from the other too series and at the same time so very familiar. I hope there are many of these to come.

I really wanted to like this a hard one to finish

Revisado: 07-25-23

The story is different, I knew that going in and the start is actually pretty good. But then it really bogs down in the grinding and musings of the main character, Sir Crabby. I saw it through and wish I could say it redeemed itself and has me chomping at the bit for book two. Alas, this will be the first and last Sir Crabby book for me.

The Narrator was good and did keep it interesting as best as he could. It was just too much deep musings about the system, and not enough about the actual story that it starts with. I love Ryan's other stories but I would be hesitant to recommend this one unless you are really into crabs (actually not that bad a part of the story) or the musings of gods and system universe or the interworkings of the dungeon worlds.

Entertaining tape continues

Revisado: 04-12-23

I had no idea what to expect in first book but the characters and development turns into the kind of story where you want to see how things continue one. In this second bio you get more and in my opinion better details of the characters and they the adventures. Ending with potential for the story to continue. Told in a very traditional Asian story telling fashion, I look forward to the next book

A story within a story done very well

Revisado: 07-29-21

Having read Matt's other series and wanting more I grabbed both of the Dominion of Blade books as soon as I found them. I have just finished this one and will be starting the next one tomorrow.

I don't want to give a ton away in this review but I really think Matt did an outstanding job. The story is complicated, though it took me a while to understand how complex. The whole plot line grows deeper as you get further along.

The MC and his friends are great characters, I think I was slightly irritated that the MC wasn't more a gamer or a tech person but honestly I think after a bit I actually liked him questioning and changing things. I don't think I would have done much better or made any better choices. He does remind me a little bit of Carl for Matt's other series. Clearly a good moral compass in both MCs is important to Matt, and to me thinking about it.

Matt does a good job of drawing you in and leaving you on the edge of your seat. Andrea Parsneau does a good job of narration, I wasn't 100% I liked her as the narrator but about a 1/3rd of the way in it was clear she was the right choice. I would love for their to be more voice talent, for some of the other characters, but that is a rare thing in audio books and she really does a good job covering everyone.

This is not as funny as Dungeon Crawler Carl books but it is certainly as well written, the characters are just as good or bad, and the moral compass of the story is pretty clear.

Second book in and hooked

Revisado: 02-07-20

Ok the first book brought me in slowly but this second book has me hooked. Zipped through it fast and found myself listening to it at my destination waiting for the moment or chapter to end. So good can’t wait to listen to the next one tomorrow

Give it a minute

Revisado: 02-02-20

Ok so I started this wondering if I’d make it and how in the world this was going to evolve into gamelit. Needless to say the story sucked me in and the main characters really ended up growing on me. Looking forward to starting book 2
