De: David Beers, Michael Anderle

Narrado por: Pete Bradbury

The games are over.

The war is here.

Does humanity have a chance against the gods?

Five men and women venture to another universe to find beings whose power gives them abilities they can’t imagine.

Their leader? The greatest warrior produced since Prometheus: Achilles.

Young, untested, but with unbridled potential, will his raw talent be enough?

Can Achilles fight gods and turn back the tide of fate for the entire universe?

Or will he be crushed like an ant beneath the feet of beings who can walk the stars?

The Two Faces of Constantine

I really liked Book 1 where it depicts a young man battling with accepting his inherited gene that would boost his mundane human attributes to almost super-human level and the harsh responsibilities that would come of that. Book 2 pretty much starts out with him being already OP and on his way to stop the being that set humankind on a 200 year death sentence. The rest of the book was him encountering challenges along the way but none really severe enough to stop him from confronting the being that sentenced humankind to its extinction. The ending was anti-climatic.

I'm officially hooked!

I loved the way this all plays out and how all of them evolve I really was hooked at the edge of my seat ..... And OMG gotta get the next one right TF now!

Man oh man! This one was good!

Man oh man! This one was good! It lets you see into the minds of the creators and is chalked fully with adventure! Awesome!

Great, until it wasn't.

I gave up on this when his love interest, which has no business being one by the way, got kidnapped to use as Achilles' emotional trigger or whatever.

It's honestly laughable. They're no reasons one so ever that he would have any feelings for her.

The only thing she's done up to this point is sneak into his room for a chat.

It's a plot device to unlock his full potential or whatever and that's pretty much it.

This series has been pretty easy to predict, so I was seeing this coming, I was just hoping she'd stay an irrelevant cheerleader rather than a damsel in distress.
