Dual narrators was a terrible choice

Revisado: 02-14-24

dual narrators narrators was a terrible choice, especially if your 10 books in to a series that has only had one up till that point.
the new narrator is super Distracting, and she pulled me out of the story whenever she popped up.
the voice Decisions that she made for Certain characters Was absolutely Baffling.
there is a female character who speaks Mostly in Third person, and until now she was given a childish voice, but the new narrator gives her a Generically normal sounding voice.
the old narrator is still giving the character the same voice as alway makeing it a confusing and Immersion breaking listen!
this series need to go back to only using one narrator!

not the original stories

Revisado: 05-07-23

the stories have been rewritten to make them seem more modern.
the second episode directly mentions Yelp reviews, Uber drivers, and wifi
i don't think i need to mention this, but Yelp, Uber, and Wi-Fi didn't exist in the 1950

the story that mentioned Uber and wifi is about people traveling by train. No, in the us travels by train anymore, and the train allows smoking.
smoking indoors has basically been illegal since the early 2000s
so by trying to modernize the story, they managed to shater my suspension of disbelief

political Soap Box

Revisado: 04-25-23

the political soap box rants really ramp up, and it's insufferable.
there is an entire chapter that is just a rant about how much the author hates America.

false description

Revisado: 04-16-23

the description says perfect for fans of Put Russian fantasy, It proceeds to list a bunch of books that are in the vein of that are Progression fantasy.
this This would imply a reasonable consumer that this book is, in fact, progression fantasy, but it's not.
there are, in fact, no Progression fantasy elements within this story whatsoever.
The story itself isn't bad it's fine, but the Blatant false advertising leaves an Undeniably bad taste into the consumer's mouth.

not much of a time loop

Revisado: 01-01-23

it really doesn't feel like much of a time loop due to the fact that the loop amost never repeats itself through the course of the book.
instead it opens with the main character having already having spent years in the loop.
instead the book is more about beating levels, and i can only really recall maybe one or two times that a time loop is actually triggered.
the book reads more like the final book in a Trilogy than the first book of a story

it feels like the author wanted to capitalize on the curent popularity of time loops that was jump started by mother of learning without having to actually write a any time travel into the story, and by the end of the first book he gets free from the loop.
this means that the series isn't going to have anything even remotely time loop related as part of its story structure moving forward.

if you are thinking about geting this book because your looking for a time loop stoy then you should skip it, and read something else instead.
other than the fact that the stories entire premise was basicly a lie it was a perfectly fine story.

confusing

Revisado: 09-24-22

I only read the audiobook so I don't know if this applies to the print version as well but it is extremely confusing when it shifts to another character's perspective.
it feels random as there's no indication that it's about to happen, and it will happen in the middle of chapters without warning so so it takes way longer than it should for your brain to register that you're now following a completely different character.

also this book creates a massive plot hole.
this book reveals that paladins are completely immune to poison and Venom but this entire book series started because a Paladin and his party accidentally kill themselves by unintentionally poisoning themselves

good story bad narrator

Revisado: 08-19-22

the narrator is absolutely terrible, he dose this bad fake British accent that sounds like the kinda accent someone would do as a joke.
also he is constantly mispronouncing words like even the most basic of words.
I've actually lost count of how many words he mispronounces he does it that frequently

slow narrator

Revisado: 06-18-22

the only real issue is how slow the narrator was.
she reads 30% slower than most other narrators.
i had to crank the listening speed up to 1.3x to make it sound like story was at normal speeds instead of being read in slow motion.

that being said this was much better thant the last book.
if there aren't going to be any more stories about penny then out of the protagonists from the last two books Avery is a much more interesting character to follow in comparison to Magenta
