"Sad to see it end."
Yes. This is just a great story. It was written well, funny at times with a feel good ending.
I am not one to compare books. Each one seems very unique to me. Even if its the whole swords wizards and princess plot.
Tim Reynolds has a very unique way of doing female voices. I do not think I could have done them better in my head. I mention the female voices because, I read about other reviewers complaining about other narrators and there version of female voices. So I am giving Tim his due. Over all I will be looking out for other books that Tim Narrates.
I guess I was sad to see that the Trilogy ended. When you have a good book you really never want it to end. I do have to say the ended was fantastic. (all bases covered)
This Series is worth your time and money. Do not skip this one.
"Narrator rocked"
If you looking for a good start for some zombie action this is a good one.
This book is kind of stressful. And the ending gave stress a good time.
Intensity.. like a mix of Scott Brink and James Marsters. The narration of this book made the book. If you want to relax this is not your book. Ray Porter is great.
No it would have to be a TV series. No clue on the stars.
"Is Harry a Bad ass or not?"
James is Harry to me, listening to all the books so far. With the exception of Ghost Story. Its a great book. I guess I have to say that this book has been waylaid from urban fantasy to true fantasy. Its a great book and story, don't get me wrong. As for rankings? With James as the lead its a 5 star for me.
Stupid question.... Harry of course.
The ending. It was a deep twist that's for sure.
No
I miss detective Dresden!
"Worth it."
Honestly you need to listen one more time. The narrator rocks. But this book is one you need to pay attention too full time. Honestly, I might have chopped it up a little to much.
When the main guy gets interviewed.
The voices are suburb. This guy has some talent.
no... its a hard listen. But worth it.
So if you like a crime fantasy. This is it hands down. or should i say fantasy robbery.
"I Tried... to love it."
FOR REAL you need to pay attention to every word. I would recommend this to a dark friend who had not much too do. You cant miss a few words do to a zone out while driving.
I don't remember
Bray is great. Nothing to complain about. I would say he is a 4 out of 5.
Yes... read a normal fantasy book. I do love my sword, wizard, and king.
The writing style is kind of strange along with the book. Every part of the book seems to show on how dark and wrong it is. It becomes a bore. I understand the authors intent. But it is a tad over done..... Making it dark.Every seen seems to have a description where it explains why every thing will be dark. This is only a skip if you CANT pay attention the whole time. Overalll... its a 3 star.. you can skip this one. But is a Fan-sci book to the extreme.
"Fantasy Soap Opera"
It seemed to me this was first written as a historic romance novel ... then changed to a fantasy novel later on. So most of the romance was taken out and some fantasy added... If you like boring, this is it. .... dont get me wrong I like (not love Robin) THIS BOOK is a SKIP. There are other books to put your time too.
She has done so much better. I dont like the first person aspect from her. She does not do that well at it. And the whole over done FAT thing gets ridiculous. She is not fit by any means. My pinky and index finger could beat her up.
He is ok. Not the best. Most of the voices sounded the same. You have to pay some real attention to his voice to distinct other characters in the book.
I kind of hated the book but I stuck with it for Robin. The only redeeming quality was it sounds like she or somebody she knows, honestly went to West Point or attended some sort of military academy. She did that very well. Needs more action and the book was slow. If you had been to a military school you might relate to this book. She gets that straight... but who the hell wants to relive that?
Look at my reviews... if your true epic fantasy you will agree.
"I love Patrick Rothfuss"
I did not read the print version. But Nick Podehl kicked ass. I hope he has more work in fantasy books in his future.
Kvothe... The whole story is about him.
Kvothe again the whole story is about him.
This is pretty long book. Being a emotionless male and saying that it moved me more then once is HUGE.
GET THIS BOOK.... GET THIS BOOK.... You will not regret it at all.
"Its like listening to a really bad zombie movie"
No. Can we not learn to shoot the once killed infected in the head? I think they forgot to finish a infected with a brain shot around 3 or 4 times. for real. So in a scene you knew each time they killed a infected it would reanimate into a zombie... BUT OMG they forgot again. If simple minded writing bugs you do not bother with this book.So many of his scenes were such a cliche I had to stop the book and go do something else. I don't know maybe he intended it to be like that.
Hell NO!
The Narrator does a good job for the pile of crap that he was given. I think he captured what the author intended.
GAWD I hope not.
The Author could have done a little more research on how the Army works. He was so MESSED up on that. Generals talking to privates like it was normal and such. What a badword retard.
"Lt. Sarah Kerrigan: Yeah, but you were thinking it"
Yes it was a good story. I kind of felt, Jim was playing Starcraft when he wrote the book. In fact after completing the book I am now playing Starcraft again. (the new one) Killing Vorg left and right oooo i mean Zerg.
Breaking Max out of the tower.
For me Kate just gets the job done. She is not my favorite, but I would still listen to a book she narrates.
No, In fact I thought there was a little to much romantic mush in this book.
Kind of have a love hate relationship with the magic system that has been developed. Its different and fun but not really explained in detail. The magic system is just kind of figured out as you go along.
"It is good. BUT"
Big time Jim Butcher fan. It seems like he was trying to hard to do something different. The magic system was kind of boring. And being at as it was a highlight on the cover it confused me. The story was a 5 star. The character development was a 3 star. Sorry but I never really fell in love with any of the characters. Kate Reading did a awesome job narrating the book. All and all i bought the next book just because Jim does such a awesome ending.
