Through Fiery Trials

Safehold, Book 10

De: David Weber

Narrado por: Jonathan Davis

With new alliances forged and old regimes fractured, Merlin—the cybernetic avatar of Earth's last survivor and immortal beacon to humanity—and the colonies of Safehold have many adventures ahead in Through Fiery Trials, the continuation of David Weber's New York Times bestselling military science fiction series.

Those on the side of progressing humanity through advanced technology have finally triumphed over their oppressors. The unholy war between the small but mighty island realm of Charis and the radical, luddite Church of God's Awaiting has come to an end.

However, even though a provisional veil of peace has fallen over human colonies, the quiet will not last. For Safehold is a broken world, and as international alliances shift and Charis charges on with its precarious mission of global industrialization, the shifting plates of the new world order are bound to clash.

Yet, an uncertain future isn't the only danger Safehold faces. Long-thought buried secrets and prophetic promises come to light, proving time is a merciless warden who never forgets.

“Vast, complex, intricate, subtle, and unlaydownable....The biggest thing in science fiction since Isaac Asimov's Foundation series.” — Dave Duncan on the Safehold series

Wonderfully detailed, interesting and fulfilling

I read and listen to all of theses books in the Safehold series because these so much detail, so much color, perspectives and angles. Safehold is a big story connected to reality in typical human behavior. Character development is sold The development of the story is paced well and it flows in ways that you can follow and make sense. Thank goodness there's humor and love to balance

Another horrible narrator!

It’s bad enough that this guy is mispronouncing already established names and words from Safehold, but what mental deficiency is he suffering from that he mispronounces regular sci-fi words (ex: Terran, nanites). It’s like reading a book with a bunch of misspelled words. Does nobody edit (or direct) this clown?

I like the series but...

It moves so slow. this one was kind of boring. It's like dragon ball z in written form.

Sooo disappointing

I love this series and I had been so looking forward to listening to this book. The narrator just ruined the whole book for me. His character voices are painful to listen to and his mispronunciations are beyond irritating and I’ve only listened to the first few chapters. If it doesn’t improve quickly I’ll be returning the book. I’ll update this review one way or the other if I can manage to listen to any more of it.

It was ok...

The book was great in the spanning of time, but it really felt incomplete, even with its great length. The book basically seems to have ended where it started, along with the most massive bombshell of the series thus far at the end. This was a disappointment since it seems as if we will have to wait another 2 years to get any clarification.
