A thrilling listen from beginning to end

Revisado: 10-22-24

I loved the direction that this book took. The gradual change in the way I viewed certain characters was so well done that I was rooting for someone I previously felt disdain for.

I never knew i wanted a story about a tax man.

I originally saw dinosaurs and was sold. But there is so much more to this story. Alfred is a lot like me, socially awkward, ultra literal, but capable of learning. What he lacks in fantasy knowledge is made up for in his time travelling partner Nancy. I would recommend this story to just about anyone.

Weird skipping issue with audio

Revisado: 03-02-20

i have not yet finished listening to this audiobook (which i got for free as a review copy) but i have noticed an intermittent issue with audio seeming to go silent, before picking back up. eventually i gave in to checking the text copy and sure enough that silence was seconds of words being skipped. a quick example can be found in chapter 25-1 when narrator is talking about the kids rite if passage. i am otherwise enjoying the audiobook

Always appreciate the compiling of trilogies

Revisado: 02-19-20 El oyente recibió este título gratis

It's an especially tedious thing to keep track of book 1, 2 or 3 of a trilogy with audible because there's essentially no playlist function built into the app. Did a book finish? go scroll through your ever increasing library to find the next one. Dawn Chapman is a great author that just compiles their books together as appropriate. I've originally listened to these as a single title each and enjoyed them back when i first got them. While the details are a little fuzzy to me at this point i remember greatly enjoying the story and essentially being at the edge of my seat wanting to hear more. I love Suzanne Barbetta's choice of voices for all the characters

I love a good trilogy

It's been awhile since i listened to these 3 books, so forgive me for my review being a bit disjointed.
Maddie gives off very strong "Amanda Carter" vibes from Stargate SG-1. She is a strong female character and one to look up to, But I digress.
Book 1 sees us learning of Maddie and her struggles with money and addiction. Pain potion addiction that is! Maddie gets a job that promises large payment as long as she completes it, but it means working with a "visitor". Maddie often finds herself getting easily attracted to people so she tries to keep herself distanced from the visitor.
Book 2 sees maddie make contact with the dragon like creatures, and she learns that not all is at it seems.
Book 3 sees Maddie racing to save Puatera, and to save the visitor she's grown fond of.

Andrea Parsneau is a good narrator, with clear enunciation of words. She's got a great range and is able to bring emotions out clearly from the text she's reading.

"Bear with me."

Milton has a horrible naming sense. Like, really, really horrible. But other than that the events of Quizard mountains are a good logical flow from the first book. It left me with some questions about what happened to the other people abducted to be put into the cores though. I hope it's answered in later books.

How to tame your pet Quagon!

Mother $%^&*( Dragons! Oh, so satisfying. Anyways, enough about that. How would you like some of the most adorable gray hound bunny hybrids to ever exist? Cause they are in here too. The book ends on a bit of a down note, but that's ok. The action is good through and through. As stated in my review of book 3, the only real complaint i have in this book is that the names of a character change between books 3 and 4. Can't wait for book 5 to get an audiobook version.

Hints of things to come.

The guardian guild picks back up from the disaster that Brint brought onto Milton by being a curious little cat. Overall I enjoyed the story, and the narration is as usual on point. My only real complaints come from book 3 to book 4 in that a name suddenly changes in book 4. I'm still enjoying Jonathon Brooks varied formula for writing, though i might be seeing a pattern to it now. Either way, it's content is different enough that i can enjoy it without much issue.
