All I buy books based on the reader first and the author second, I know that is strange but I have falling in love with a few more books this way and found authors like Meltzer this way.

Not really moved me but one that stood out was when the Archivist was looking out his window that was interesting kind of an Ahhh moment. Sorry no spoilers….

Enjoyed this book and will look forward to reading the next installment. Funny I normally pick books based on the reader first and then the story. Scott Brick is one of the best I have heard and really look forward to his reading. Meltzer really loves history and looks at it sideways which is really interesting. It is actually really cool to learn something from a fiction book.

Not a bad story it was hard to get past the beginning which was a little slow going and many times I wanted to just stop... but I kept going and was well worth it. If you like steampunk you might like this. I enjoyed this and have moved on to the next in line.

When this book first came out I read all of the reviews and actually listened to them, boy was that a mistake. I left the book on my wish list and figured it would stay there for the foreseeable future since the reviews had me scratching my head. I am so glad I did not remove it. As I write this review I think folks are going to read this and wonder just what is he on about or what makes him a worthwhile reviewer. To be honest I listen to books because I have Dyslexia and it is difficult for me to read for a long time, that and I lose myself in books. When I start the iPhone app (sorry for the plug) I do just that I lose myself in the stories and it is a great feeling. When I listened to this and the rest of the books I was transformed to Alagaësia. Funny thing was; I found myself thinking about the story when I wasn’t listening and thinking just how is Paolini going to play everything out.

To take time to write a review is a big deal for me and to write one for this book was important especially because of the negative one’s I saw when the book first came out in 2011. The bottom line is that this book was well worth your time and I do feel if you have listened to the first three than you are going to see this is a great ending to this series. If you have not read the first three I would suggest investing in those books and enjoy the adventure that Eragon, Saphira and the rest will take you on. Alagaësia is a wonderful place to get lost in for a few hours at least.

My time was spent well, I would not say that I was in a hurry to finish it as it did drag on a bit.

READ IT YOUR SELF

Have to say the Central Park and the groaning from the backup.

Nope

A bit long and drawn out, enjoyed more of John Cory than the bad guy.

I would say every audio version is better than reading... Dyslexia sucks

The twins and billy the kidd

Yes very good voice and enjoyed every bit.

I would yes.

This was a very good ending to this series, I hope the Author will bring in some of the other players into their own adventures.

This was a very different book than I expected. Took a little to keep going but it was worth it.

I really never like to single out one over the rest, they were all good and played off each other well.

I liked McClain very much he kept me interested.

Since I am writing this a few weeks after I read it it is difficult to remember ll of the names I would like to have a one on one with the start and I would love to see just how the wife of the Doctor is.

Takes some effort to get through but well worth it.

Christopher Farnsworth's stories are now on the top of my list. That and I will be looking for Bronson Pinchot's read's he was outstanding.

This one stands on it own great new series and looking for to the rest.

All he has a great range and kept the book moving.

better than that I got the next two after the first chapter of this one.

Great new series would love to see if this makes it to a movie.

Interesting story not what you expected at first but as it went on it really got great.

Liked the fact that all the players were covered very well even the ones you were ment to heat.

Nah it would mess with he story but but the dog hunts the second one works!

Yeah I did spend the a lot of time towards the end...

Worth the buy.

Sure it is a story with so many parts I might have missed something that would make the confusing clearer.

The End once you hear it you will agree.

First book by him will look for more.

Nope
