Ruinous Return, Book 1

De: SerasStreams

Narrado por: Hannah Trusty

The price for saving the world is the right to rule it.

After saving a faraway world, Lyn Rivers was cast back to Earth. Wanting the admiration, prestige, and glory of saving that world, she forced her way back.

But she was forgotten, and someone else claimed credit for her deeds.

Now, with the power of a deity of destruction, she desires nothing more than to claim her place in history. To do that she will conquer dungeons, make alliances, destroy kingdoms, and build an empire.

After all, why ruin the world when you can bend it to your will?

Never cared for spoken spells

overall good story. I never cared for chanting spells. Characters and storyline is strong and nice. I will enjoy this series. I do enjoy it.

the main character is insufferable and intensely unlikeable

the world building and some of the other characters aren't bad but the main character is just annoying and cringey

What a fantastic story 👏

This is one the all around best books that I have listened to in along time. Great characters. The heroes and the villains were very compelling. I really hope there is more to this series. Five stars all around. I highly recommend it to anyone!

Fun read - a few content warnings

I really enjoyed the prose and the plot! The characters feel fully developed and their voices fit.

I would just note that there are some descriptions of abuse and recollections of the same that could be pretty triggering for some. Not a criticism, just an fyi.

The mc is unlikable

Sleeps with every thing but not that one guy. That’s where she draws the line.
