Content with what I got

Revisado: 11-29-23

This was a good way to end the series. Spensa got some MUCH needed character development, in my opinion. The action wasn't at the level I would expect of Sanderson, but it was entertaining enough. I could understand if someone were to say the final battle was a little anticlimactic. For me though, it was a solid enough conclusion that I'm content with my purchase of the book.

Much improvement over book 1

Revisado: 05-25-22

Pacing is much better and several reasonably timed plots to help continue the series. Looking forward to listening to the next book

Listening to this makes me glad someone started doing the research for topics that I've been a first hand witness to for my whole life

It progresses the story....

Revisado: 04-11-22

Full disclosure, I really do not like the protagonist, even in the previous two books. I'll try not to let that bias leak into this review, but sometimes that does play a minor factor in my criticisms.

The story itself seemed to have been a decrease in intensity for the series. The first book, we had struggling through a discriminating authority and fighting a war. The second book we had spying and learning cultural empathy/understanding. This book...... I don't even know what we got. The best I could describe it as is a set of small plots trying to be mashed together into a full story. This is of no fault to the performance, Suzy Johnson did great work at making the protagonist slightly more bearable than she would've been if I had read the book rather than listened to it. Some of the side characters' voices didn't particularly matched what I believe their personalities to be, but that's a really small thing. But powers seem to make drastic changes for reasons I don't understand why were put into the story. Constantly getting new side characters thrown into the stories makes it difficult to empathize or care about their goals knowing that I'll likely won't see them again. No actual threat to the protagonist other than in the last 1-1.5 hours. A few interesting moments that got built up and resulted in a rush and/or unsatisfying conclusion. This is certainly my most disliked book of the series. I will still buy and listen to book 4 when it comes out because I still like the world and I'm still interested in seeing how the story will play out, but I'm certain not waiting/looking forward to it.

Enjoyable

Revisado: 02-07-22

Story was good, but it spent so much time in a flashback that at times it felt more like a prequel than a follow up to the Red Sea. Still liked it and looking forward to the 4th book of the series

Good Attempt

Revisado: 01-15-22

I understand what the author was trying to go for, but the story is slow and convoluted. The main character and quest is intriguing, but the story jumps around so much that it's difficult to keep track of who's a character worth focusing on. DC characters appear just for the sake of name dropping, honestly the story would've been an improvement without them. What could've been a thrilling, supernatural horror story was watered down to a DC comic's side characters side story. Glad I got this for free

Decent Sanderson story

Revisado: 04-03-21

Story kind of heard to follow at some points and can use a second longer break between moving to a new chapter. Also, 2 out of 3 of the main characters are so perfect and full of themselves that it's not even fun to listen to their stories because they practically make no mistakes of worth to add suspense to the plot and get what they want almost as soon as they want it

Interesting story

Revisado: 09-30-19

Concept of the Library and the story were interesting. Good twist that I guessed wrong. But the voices all sounded too alike that every character felt the same and the main character appeared so unlikable at times

Good Listen

Revisado: 12-15-18

Has a great story and interesting characters. Some character voices do not match up with their personalities in my opinion.
