Excellent listening

I have always loved this series. And I really like this narrator. excellently punny fun!

Can't wait for the next one!

I enjoyed the twist in the end, it was very Simon R. Green. I like how the characters in each series drop the names and locations from other series in conversation with each other. I can't wait to listen to the next one to hear an explanation for what happened at the end of this book.

well...

interesting story. Um spoiler, the ending was wrapped up way to quick. That the ending kinda hit me sideways with a slap of what. other than that cool story lot of loop holes tho.

Drood Fall Flat

There are things I like about the Droods, the family dynamics can make for some interesting reading. But there's no real sense of danger. As Eddie keeps reminding us every 3rd page, Droid armor is impenetrable. Droods are unstoppable. Droods kick a**. Droid armor makes the Dropd family pretty much unbeatable & there is no real sense that Eddie or any of his family are in even the slightest of danger except occassionally when some overwhelming force attacks en masse. I feel no anxiety for the welfar and safety of Eddie or Molly because the Drood armor will protect Eddie &, if necessary, Eddie will protect Molly.
And Eddie's violation of the sanctuary club, where Eddie beat his (Shaman Bond) dear friend to a bloody pulp because the man refused to allow Eddie to violate the sacred rule, that was disgusting and pathetic on Eddie's part and made him no better than the scum the rule was protecting. Eddie Drood views himself & his family as above the law minor gods who uphold the law of "do as I say and not as I do."
The banter between Eddie and Molly was cute at first. Now it's just annoying. Each book in this series seems to be a reworked version of the previous book. Might be good YA material but falls flat for me as an adult reader. Annoying juvenile banter between adult characters. No real danger posed to the antagonist, the same antagonist who upholds the laws that he breaks, and he doesn't even break them in any creative manner. He's just an overpowered, immature, hypocritical douche that's not in any real danger because of his godlike armor that no one I've read about so far poses even the slightest threat to.
Cringe worthy background noise.

Love this series!

Another great installment in the Drood series! I have enjoyed over 20 books from this author and recommend all of the titles!
