Disciple of War

Art of the Adept, Book 4

De: Michael G. Manning

Narrado por: Tim Gerard Reynolds

War looms on the horizon, but Selene’s training as a wizard must begin...even though her age makes success nearly unattainable.

Will searches for a solution, but their only hope may be a dangerous bargain with the king. The fate of two nations lies on his shoulders, and the future is paved with violence. With few options, he needs the aid of uncertain allies and dubious friends. Traitors lurk among them, and soon he will be forced to choose who to trust - and who to sacrifice. For a terrible power has arrived in Darrow, and the price of victory will be paid in blood.

great book, awful audio

audio needs to be either recorded or go through some major editing as half of the lines are recorded with high quality microphones and the other half sounds like a cell phone

Series is amazing

Book is great. The narrator stays amazing as well. I seen a review stating that the MC is turning somewhat evil. I think if a person goes through as much as the MC has he will become a darker. Not only that he still has his humanity. He is still compassionate. He is just not naive anymore. The humor is still one of the best things about this book. Keep up the good work

Great book, but it could have been better

I am slightly disappointed in this book. At least when I compare it to the other previous three books. Not so disappointing that I wouldn’t use a credit on it, but I expected a betterment on the series. First of all, I noticed some quality issues in the narration. There was this constant change of frequency that was going in and out of the narration, almost as if a different mic was being used, or the mic wasn’t positioned correctly. This issue would pop up for a minute, disappear for a while, and pop right up again. Kind of jarring and annoying. I think we all expect better quality from these audiobooks.
I’m not sure if I like the development of the character. In courtesy to those who haven’t read this book yet, things happen in this book that just seem out of character for the protagonist. This book just turns kind of dark and creepy. I know it’s a war book, but instead of growing in morality, the main character seems to lose some.
I enjoyed this book. Don’t think I didn’t. Things just went in a direction I wasn’t expecting.
So, I rated the story four out of five. It was too good for it to be rated as a three, but it wasn’t great enough to be rated as a five. If I rated the other three books, I’m pretty sure I rated them five out of five.

a good pace

a good book. slower pace then the previous ones.
but also satisfieing and a easy listen.

leaves you excited for the next installment. but not like it has been cut of in the middle

Liked it.

I very much liked the audiobook and very much enjoyed the narration of the book.

Magic system good.

Still hands down one of my favorite series. Can't to listen to the next book. The magic system is just so easy to understand and complicated at the same time.

good story, good performance, iffy sound quality

Loved the book, but I don't know why the sound quality kept changing. Like they had to go back and do a bunch of "reshoots" in a different sound studio, or something. It was noticable enough to be distracting.

Great Series

I love the narrator who read this book. it was so fun to listen to! The story was amazing, captivating and keep me wanting to hear more. The author is a great writer. I highly recommend this book series. Each book is excellent and never boring.

I'm pretty sure it says a heading is optional

My only problem with this series is that Will never really learns from his mistakes in a more meaningful way, only specific instances with specific individuals.

Great but audio

Great book, great performance but audio recording has different recordings that are noticeable. Still recommend it.
