Bioshifter: Volume 2

Bioshifter, Book 2

De: Thundamoo, Natalie Maher

Narrado por: Sarah Beth Pfeifer

Hannah is not human, and she's not sure what will happen when she stops pretending otherwise.

Still stuck in a slowly mutating body on Earth and still waking up in a fantasy world whenever she sleeps, Hannah's stress continues to mount every single day. As magic continues to spread to her friends—whether they like it or not—Hannah is forced to confront what that magic means about her and what her terrifying Goddess wants her to do with it.

30 mph is not a super human speed the record is like 27

the usuall possible self projection. but if you can ignore that and just looks at it as a story about the average whiny person with issues that arnt really uncommon these days. aside from every main character being some kind of spectrum. I'd ween off that personally more story less over reaction. most of the story is just hanna babbling to her self about the same thing over and over Nd not expanding the story. but as horrible as character she is at first glance..and she kinda is a bad character.. I had a thought do main characters need to me likeable? can you have a good story with a irritating mc? yes you can. reading a story about a mess of a person like most ppl are on the inside is not bad at all. for example the book empress. the mc is a crazy murdering pos and she is awsome. but if your gonna make superhuman stats make them actually super human. she can run as fast as the current world record holder. she should at least run 50 to 60 mph to match an animal like a cheetah or something since there all half animal/monster. I'm sure a scaled up slider even withought magic would run like 70mph

Clever and thoughtful

This series and the Hive Mind book are wonderful. When can we get print versions?

The stories are entertaining, the ideas are clever, the characters are relatable, and most of all, I feel seen. Ms Maher understands nerd brain with such depth and clarity she just has to be one of us.

An amazing second volume

I really like bioshifter, it feels like an incredibly personal and well-thought-out take on the fantasy genre, eager to push outside of the normal conventions and to show those things that make it special or deeply personal.
As a "sequel"/second volume, I think it is better than first one, as I feel it explores more the relationships presented and builds on the groundwork stablished at the beggining.

I have some things I don't really like about it tho.
The dialog feels good most of the times, but there are moments where it is super akward.
There are also other things, like the handelling of mental health (which at least for me it's good), but most of the things that were awkward in the first volume are ironed here.
In conclusion, I think that if you went through the first volume and you like it, you should grab this one, it just gets better.

levels on levels

This author writes about mental illness/neurodivergence/sexuality through perfectly resonant scifi analogies, and I just love it.

Love all her books.

My favorite author complex fun books I didn't think she could make a better book then vigor mortis and I still think vigor mortis was better but not by much.

I’m left as heck and even this was a bit much at times

Narrator is absolutely awesome and the concepts that were great in the first book are still great here. That being said I feel like I’m being lectured consistently. I understand the need/want to have representation of the LGBTQ+ community in books and media but holy heck it doesn’t need to be mentioned every five minutes.

I’ll be watching for the next book but hope the author tones it down a bit. Folks can be queer without it being the absolute defining feature.

A wonderful story expertly narrated

This book is emotionally complex in a way I absolutely adore. It’s the kind of book where I read it twice in kindle format while I waited for this audiobook came out.

All of it!

Such an amazing book series so far and I’m addicted I need the 3rd one please

Great continuation of the story

A few books have made me hoping for something to happen and then the author makes it happen. One is Brandon Sandersons War Breaker. This is another one. This author clearly understands what a reader of their books wants. Of course there is a few bumps like in anything, there not enough of a detractor to even change my rating.

S' a good book

Enjoyed the characters, setting, topics, and performance. Natalie Maher is a fantastic author, to the point of desiring more stuff with similar vibes. Sara Beth Pfeifer was also amazing; both in having verbally distinct voices, and in how they changed as the characters did. Or as different representations of the same character.
