The Memory Stone, Part II

De: Jeffrey Quyle

Narrado por: Peter Kenny

Theus's journey continues in The Memory Stone, Part II.

Within the past year of his life, Theus has seen freedom and slavery, affection and spite, wealth and poverty - now, his adventures are about to grow more consequential and intense as the gods of the land begin to rely on him personally and exclusively to travel from conflict to conflict, as they try to use him to tamp down the outbreak of evil and violence that is threatening every human in the lands ruled by Stoke.

Theus will be confronted with tests, challenges, and adventures as he slowly takes a round-about path towards his final confrontation with Donal. Heartbroken, poisoned, and traveling in stunned pain, Theus will return to the great cities of the kingdom as he moves away from his past, and towards the unimaginable battles that await him in his future.

Not Stellar, but Satisfying

The Memory Stone part 2 captures the feeling of an adventure that I experience very rarely-- Satisfaction. Although this coming of age saga seems tame compared to other fantasy stories, it draws you into Theus' life and it's enjoyable to watch him grow and mature. Consistent with my review of part one, this conclusion to Theus' growth and his battles against dark powers sees very little difficulty but it only seems that way due to the nature of the story as well as what we've come to expect thus far. While he is thrown into more dangerous situations and goes through emotional turmoil, his mental growth and expanded knowledge helps him overcome obstacles with relative ease.

The one thing that I absolutely love about this story is the pacing. Everything feels natural, nothing feels rushed. As he journeys from city to city, stepping from place to place, working through various encounters, not once did anything feel like it did not belong. Everything had its place. While I wish that there was more to hear, Theus' story felt complete.

*I had finished part 2 immediately after part 1 but I neglected to review it until now.

Fantastic

I enjoyed this story immensely. I do hope the last two books will be on Audible soon. I loved the character’s, the adventures, the battles. I definitely recommend giving this series a try.

great story performed perfectly by Peter Kenny

enjoyed the story and loved the magical concepts. Peter Kenny makes the story come alive!

Enjoyable

Truly enjoyed this series. I wish there was more audiobooks available from this author. I have read every book he has written and would love to be able to listen to his stories while working.

Great Adventure Story

Loved it? Yes! Great Adventure Story where the underdog wins over and over again. The story gives you details of how the protagonist, Theis, grows in knowledge and power and it's fabulous to see the audio providing 26 hours (between part 1 and part 2) of details and character development.

Most Memorable Moment? There were several but they were all when Theis had a victorious moment over evil as he discovered the capabilities of his powers. I really appreciated how his courage always carried him through. One of my favs was when he rescued the Princess from the evil magician with his powers. He was clever and swift!

How was the narrator?
The narrator was excellent! He did a great job of using varied voices to emphasize the different characters. Plus, I'm a sucker for the British accent. 😊

The only negative:
They didn't resolve the Grant issue. The man disappeared and that was not wrapped up. Also, The last couple of hours were a bit rushed. The entire book is headed towards this amazing moment to defeat the evil wizard and this malevolent god but the scenes fly by without a whole lot of details. I would have appreciated more details.

Overall? EXCELLENT and fun Read!

enjoyed the overall series. definitely worth the time and credits. good character development. it's nothing new per se but a good story.

Wow

This author built a great world. Characters you really cared for. Then rushed the ending and ruined it! After like 40 hours the ending is less then six minutes. Did not wrap up so many things! Enjoy the books they were great but the ending leaves much to be desired!

Sad that this series came to an end.

I fell in love with this series, I love the story and the characters so much. The narrator is definitely one of the best! He definitely made the story telling soo enchanting!
