Can’t wait for a sequel

This was a very good listen. It has fun characters and good growth. Also had a lot of entertaining banter and fight scenes. Really look forward to a sequel.

Great

Unique characters and plot lines. Well thought out and executed . Refreshing given the current state of the genre. Will read more from this author.

I really hope the main character dies soon

I love this author and this is a good story. This mc though? I can’t find it in me to care about them. Every time the story is from their perspective I really hope they die.

Fun read!

The short story format did a good job for character development. Wurhi and Kyembe were both fascinating and deep characters. I did struggle initially to not hear a Stone Eater and Herdazian speaking. That is one downfall of getting a bigger narrator. Overall he did a great job though. Fun story telling.

Read it

Great adventure and extremely unique but engaging protagonists. Read/ listen to this book. I cant wait for the next one
