About this listen

Palmyre. A city of questions and a family short on answers. And foremost on everyone’s mind is the question that matters most: Where is Grandpa Jack?

After a long and arduous journey, the Sullivan family has made it to Palmyre. The initial joy over their reunion soon fades, however, when Grandpa Jack fails to arrive. With no way of seeking him out, they turn their attention to surviving in a town far different from anything they have experienced before. For some, it is a matter of learning who they are. For others, it is about learning what they are becoming. And for Grandpa Jack, well, he would have gotten to that damn town ages ago if there weren’t so many damn creatures, monsters, and gods in the way.

As for Turkaletta…does anyone think of the turkey? Nooo. It’s all, “Where’s Grandpa Jack?” Couldn’t just one person say, “What about our turkey?”

Sigh. Looks like she’ll have to do it her way.

Waiting for book 3

I can't wait for the next book. This series has me hooked! The best part for me is the humor.

Jeff Hays always shows up

The series so far has been captivating. I am not sure i am going to continue after this book. The Father Son relationship is grating on me. We have two super aware people about everything, and it just seems like an unnecessary friction that makes me disconnect. It's really out of character. There are also some other out of character items that break the story for me but the grandpa, turkey, and sister keep it fresh enough to keep me on the fence.

Anti spite review 🤪

Great book 2 in the series. Just please, please, please don’t make us wait near as long for book 3 in the series. I waited so long for book 2 in this series, I almost dropped a star for all three rating classes out of spite.

Extra star given for not having harems nor inexplicably stupid characters.

If you liked the first book then you will like this one too. Honestly, for me this is a four star book which means it’s really good, but not perfect. If the slow pace of the overall plot from the first book didn’t bother you then you’ll be fine with the second one. That said, while I was engaged and entertained all the way through this book, I was a little disappointed that the plot did very little advancing by the end.

It’s tough when you have 6 main characters to follow. Balancing their individual perspectives with more overarching developments is really not easy. The author does a great job switching between MC’s without making the book feel choppy and keeping the story cohesive. But in doing so well at that we end up with a bit more of a slice-of-life experience than a faster paced storyline.

Again, the audiobook was great, I just feel like my 5-star rating is a bit disingenuous. However when a really good audiobook only has three ratings I feel compelled to give it an extra star just to keep it from falling into the doldrums of the sub-4.6 star purgatory that many good books struggle to ever make it out of.

This is why 5 point rating systems for nuanced things are idiotic. And why any of the tens of thousands of audible books with 4.3 star ratings could be the best audiobook you’ve ever heard, or so mind-numbingly terrible that it damages your psyche permanently.
…And there’s no way to know which is which beforehand! It’s frustrating.

Sorry, just couldn’t help myself from going on a little rant. I blame coffee.

Yeah I don’t know what happened

The first book was amazing but my god these characters are infuriating. Mom/Dad refuses to adapt to their new world. Everyone is keeping secrets from each other for no logical reason. Mark, my god, Mark. How do you make the character possessed by eldritch magic the least compelling, least likable character? I like the Druid daughter but she’s just there.

I would love a book that mostly follows Grandpa Jack and the Turkey. Yes the turkey is the 2nd best character in this book.
Couple hours left, let’s hope it gets better
