My rating: 2.5 stars
Audiobook narrator Ray Greenley rating: 3.5 stars

This audiobook was gifted to me by the narrator in order to receive an honest review. This fantasy book certainly paints an interesting world of giant creatures, mutants, and a bleak war-torn nation. There were many parts of the book that I did enjoy, but I could not really get into it for some reason. I think there were too many characters initially which confused me and certain elements were not well defined.

I enjoyed the narrator and thought he was spot on for the main character. I did not like his voice too much for Captain Sheridan (it confused me when she was speaking) but he did a good job of changing his voice for different characters (something we do not see much these days in narrators).

I personally am giving this book altogether a 2.5 star rating. I usually round up in GoodReads (and Audible) for my half-star ratings but, for this book, I am rounding down because I did not like how the book ended. I know that the book is broken into three volumes but I was hoping there would be some wrapping up at the end and hoping that it could be read as stand-alone. I will not read the second (or third) book in this series.

Thank you Ray for letting me read (listen to) this book!

I read this book with my six-year old son, Olsen. We received an advanced reader copy from the author of the book in the form of audiobook and PDF. The audiobook was narrated by Dick Hill. Here is my son's review of this book.

"I really liked this book. It was so good. I thought Jaden was pretty smart to make a petition for all of his classmates to sign. I liked the part about the tic-tac-toe puzzle. I want to read Episode 2 because I am sure it will be so good!"

I personally thought this book was super cute. I really liked the illustrations and the narrator was fantastic. Dick Hill really did surprise me on his narration - especially with the voices. I only have one minor complaint - the narrator did not read all of the words in all of the illustrated captions. This book is a good read for Kindergartners and First Graders and I look forward to future books in the series. Thanks for the advanced copy, Marti!
