Four Laws, Book 6

De: David Burke

Narrado por: Daniel Wisniewski, Rebecca Woods

Home is where the heart is...at least that's what they say.

Rob has made a home for himself in Olimero. Now, he finds himself entangled in events outside of the town he has made his own. A tournament, rival gangs, jealous gods, and an expanding family—it's a lot for one man to juggle, especially as his wives each have their own interests.

What's a guy to do?

En bra bok ser framemot hur det går

En bra bok ser framemot hur det går jag vill se vad han får från katten 😁🤔😁
men jag håller med att José var onödigt elak om katten om att det var inte karaktär med hur vi har lärt säna häne med visst blev blev hon svartsjuk men jag antar att författaren la till den för spelningen skull men en då överhela tagit så var det en bra bok men jag ser endå fram emot att få höra fler böcker av den serige hoppas att det blir många 😁👍

I don't do reviews but....

my only real complaint is it's not long enough. but that's common in books like this. and I'm not saying it's not long enough in any negative way. I just want more! I honestly had low expectations for this series from the beginning. then I ended up listening to all of them 3 times back to back. the only reason I'm not doing the same now is because we all know what other book came out the same day. but I'll definitely listening to it all again and love it! next book please.

Starting to decline

BLUF: Fantastic narration can't save a increasing bad story.

Narration: Superb as always. Daniel and Rebecca are two of the best in the business. They aren't just narrators, they are true voice actors.

Story: Lets be frank, this genre isn't the most highly regarded in literature. It's a niche market and should be judged by that standard. In that regard, the series is about on par with most of the rest of the offerings in the genre. However the story has begun to decline, mostly because of the main character (MC).

He stated off as a mostly decent guy, thrust into a strange world. The classic stranger in a strange land trope that's been around since Mark Twain with his Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court and popularized in anime and manga as "Isekai". Personally I feel that trope is VASTLY over utilized in this genre but I recognize that is my personal feelings.

So Rob our hero starts off as a more or less decent guy, if a bit on the stupid side. He is also steadfastly arrogant though he doesn't recognize it, not truly. That is seen time and again when he realized his moral values, traditions, laws and such are entirely from his world and so he is the outsider and stranger. A reasonably intelligent person would recognize that and adapt themselves yo the culture they are in, rather than demand everyone conform to them. At times he even realizes just how ego centric he is being...right before he keeps doing it anyways.

That trait was tolerable but with each new book, as his power continues to grow, he has become more and more of the classic arrogant jerk. It's his way or the highway, no problem exists he can't defeat with brute force and his will to make everything how he sees fit. Worse, he can't even be consistent. He has also picked a new horrible character trait; capriciousness.

He demonstrates that frequently. One example is how he is so frustrated with people deferring to him, being afraid of him for his power. He wants people to joke with him yet when one of his most trusted aides does just that, makes a well intentioned joke about him and his wives, he near completely losses his temper. He does completely lose his composure, threatening to kill the elderly woman.

I'm not sure if I will continue with the series. It seems clear his character arc will be to become even more arrogant, egotistical, capricious and generally unlikable. I won't return the books for a refund but I won't be spending another credit on the series unless the reviews make it clear his character changes and becomes someone I can cheer for instead of despise.

a nother great book

This series has been glorious. One good book after another. I like where the story is going and the build up in the plot is fun.
I recommend that someone looking for a good story try this one. I love it.

good

it was good as usual l. this is just to use up my words.

The action doesn’t stop! Finishing the story leaves you wanting the next chapter!

As the episodes continue the family grows and powers up! Everyone starts to become a power in their part of the story.

Fantastic

I really enjoy this series, it appears the MC to going to ascend to godhood any day. Looking forward to the next one

so k

I have come this far, so I will finish the series. the narrators are doing a great job.

Great Book. Now I gotta wait again😢

Daniel and Rebecca are GOATED!!! This story keeps getting better. Reminds me of another story by David Burke, Descend.

epic!

After book five book six brings back the awesome adventure from this series! I am always impressed with how things have changed, not just with the characters but the plot also. Things are getting more interesting and I know book seven will continue on from there. I also want to thank the voice actors for their continued stellar performance! It brings the characters to life in ways that make you not only feel but see the events as they unfold.
