Book One in the Jack Of All series!

In a world ravaged by the devastating arrival of the squid, status and age no longer matter. Everyone fought, and the war was still lost.

Burke, a veteran of the squid invasion, is facing a new enemy: age. All he wants is to get through the remainder of his days without any trouble, but the world is unforgiving and peace is a distant memory.

Arvin, Burke's neighbor and friend, is losing himself. Once a powerful wizard, he has become a danger to those he cares about most.

Charlie, a girl born after the squid invasion, knows only loss and fear. Her mother and best friend were killed, and every time the lights go out, she hopes she's not next.

But hope is as dead as her mother.

The squid are evolving. Where light was once a death sentence, it now serves as a mere obstacle in their relentless pursuit of food and corpses.

The author is the voice actor!

I’m a dyslexic truck driver who solely listens to audio books. I really appreciate when the author does the reading. His voices are well balanced and make you believe that they are different people. Excited to see where he takes the story.

Perfect Performance

Leumas not only delivered an excellent and unique story but also performed spectacularly. Each character had a unique voice making it easy to follow along with the dialogue. Throughly enjoyed!

voice is fantastic

I got through this so fast and enjoyed every moment of it. Plus the voice is fantastic and I found it relaxing.

Hmmm

When I saw this book I was expecting something else. I for some reason was thinking this is a dark YA. But anyway, this story had a couple of laugh and sad moments.
But the one major thing is how are humans losing?! For real tho, it felt like the squids were really dumb, dumber than they should be. But I thought maybe due to numbers maybe that’s why. But that doesn’t seem right either since any light source kills them. So I’m just left wondering how?
I do like Helmet, he’s definitely someone I enjoy through the story. Getting the alien perspective was cool and how they interacted with the human body was cool. Now if there more of HIM then I can see humanity loosing the war.
Now how it ended, I’m confused on what will happen. It seems a very nice fitted end. But there is a squeal and I guess my question is will it take place on Flipside?

Great story and performance

It is not often the narrator is the author, and I sometimes wonder if the feelings are being conveyed correctly or if names are pronounced correctly. Mr. Llewtnac has done an excellent job as narrator and author. The world he has created is fascinating, and the characters are brilliantly written. The characters are really brought to life with his amazing performance as narrator. Overall, a great concept, a great story, and a great narrator.

fantastic book

Great story and characters. The worldbuilding was immersive, the relationships between characters were amazing, kept me on the edge of my seat. On top of it all, amazing narration.

Awesome story

Great story, the characters are developed and you care about them. Even the bad guys have sympathetic motives. Definitely check this book out.

An Amazing Horror

Not only is the author an amazing story writer, but also an amazing storyteller. You could listen to him read the phonebook. The story was fun, tragic, and brilliant. If you want a twist on classic horror, this is a great option.

MUST read!

I've listened to this novel 2x and starting a third already! The world of Flipside sucks you in and leaves you riveted for more. The author self-narrated for audible and has such a lovely voice to listen to. He also gives wonderful color and personality to each character voice that you never even have to guess who's speaking. Highly recommended addition to your library!

Wizards, aliens, found family, and flat earth conspiracy theories?

This book was both a horror story and a warm hug. The dystopian sci-fi horror meets and hint of magic meets found family. I don’t know how this story combines action with elderly characters that are some of the most complex characters I’ve read in a while. The story of dementia and surviving at the end of the world is unique and a refreshing take on a genre that is typically young adult heavy.

I had a great time with the themes of this book. Honestly the only reason it lost a star for me was because the story was a little slow for me in places and sometimes I was confused where the plot was headed. But that was all made up by the underlying threads of a crazy world of magic and other worlds mixed with funny and artful prose and very compelling characters.

ALSO the narration is stunning if you’re listening to the audiobook.
