A intricate afterlife explored

Pays of for over a year of TikToks
I have been following this author for a while and have seen most of these characters grow and develop. I was genuinely pleased meet them on the page. The story is smart and fun.

Surprisingly fun and Interesting love story

Revisado: 06-22-22 El oyente recibió este título gratis

To be perfectly honest I am NOT the target audience for this Book (or possibly the whole genre)
That said this was a very fun story that bobbed and weaved bringing the main characters apart and together

what really surprised me were the things that I learned as the story unfolded. I have no background in musical theater or ballet but I learned quite a bit as I listened (i.e who knew theaters had dorms?)

The Narrator Torii Alaniz gets better as the book proceeds she is very good

The author Kathryn Biel is very talented and is great with dialog (which is a talent) She writes smart well rounded characters

Maybe I need to reevaluate my tastes audio book genres

All in all a great listen

This is smart and fun SciFi (a combination that is hard to pull off). The author has a great sense for writing characters that find themselves in a new world

History the way it should be taught

Revisado: 10-31-19

Dan Carlin might be the greatest non-Historian Historian in America.

He presents history as it should be convayed : Smart, thought provoking and personal as a punch to the face

This book is a first class review of the edge that humanity walks with its own extinction.

I adore his podcast Hardcore History and fans of it will recognise many of the themes but this book is better because it links so many of the ideas into a brilliant web of Apocalyptic history .

This is a solid Sci-Fi tale in the vein of Doctor Who

A Solid (if flawed) addition to the MHI universe

If you could sum up Monster Hunter Memoirs: Sinners in three words, what would they be?

Monster Killing Action

What was one of the most memorable moments of Monster Hunter Memoirs: Sinners?

The full moon rising over lake Pontchartrain and the insanity that ensued

What about Oliver Wyman’s performance did you like?

one of the best voices in the buisness

Any additional comments?

Once more into the breach.... this book was better than Ringo's first foray into the Monster Hunter International universe (Monster Hunter Memoirs: Grundge) . The main character is less of a Mary Sue and more of a Hyper Compliant monster killer in this book (although vestiges of Mary Sue-nes remain).

A solid addition to the Monster Hunter Series

Revisado: 08-10-16

Any additional comments?

Nicely written. Ringo clearly "gets" the Monster Hunters International universe. It is smart and as someone who lived through the 70's and 80's I appreciated the nods to my past.

Book is great makes movie seem lousy. Too much artistic license.

The return of Peter Grant Wizard/Policeman

Revisado: 02-17-14

Where does Broken Homes rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is a great series in the Urban Fantasy genre and this is the best of the (currently) four books in the series.

What other book might you compare Broken Homes to and why?

If you like the Dresden Files books you should do yourself a favor and listen to this book (and the related series). It is the ongoing story of an Apprentice Wizard who is also a Police officer for the London Metropolitan Police force. It is almost (but not quite) a police procedural with magic.

What about Kobna Holdbrook-Smith’s performance did you like?

Kobna Holdbrook-Smith should be reading anything and everything that requires a British accent he is a brilliant vocal talent. He really brings the characters to life.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I could have listed to this whole book without stopping and found myself extending my walk/drive/other activity so that I could listen to more.

Any additional comments?

I will say (without spoilers) that when you get to the twist in the last quarter of the book that I was stunned speechless and now curse that the book is over and I will have to wait for the next one (whenever that is)
