Out of Spite, Out of Mind

Magic 2.0, Book 5

By: Scott Meyer

Narrated by: Luke Daniels

When you discover the world is a computer program, and you figure out that by altering the code you can time travel and perform acts that seem like magic, what can possibly go wrong?

Pretty much everything.

Just ask Brit, who has jumped around in time with such abandon that she has to coexist with multiple versions of herself. Now, Brit the Elder finds that her memories don't match Brit the Younger's. And there's the small matter of a glitch that's making Brit the Elder's body fritz out. Brit the Elder's ex-boyfriend Phillip wants to help her, but he'll have to keep it secret from his current girlfriend, Brit the Younger, who can't stand her future self.

Meanwhile, Martin is trying to protect Phillip from a relentless attacker he somehow hasn't noticed; Gwen is angry because Martin accidentally proposed to her; Gary tries to help the less fortunate, with predictably disastrous results; and an old nemesis might have to be the one to save them all.

In Out of Spite, Out of Mind, our fearless wizards discover the biggest glitch in their world's program may well be themselves.

Another Classic!

Omce again Scott Meyer, brought to life by Luke Daniels, has hit it out of the park. So many twists and surprising turns peppered with his signature wit and goofy references. This book poses some interesting philosophical questions about time and reality as one expects from the series, but does it in a digestible and often hilarious way! I love this series so much that i set an alarm to wake up at 3 am to listen to it in it's entirety in one fell swoop. 10/10 Would Recommend.

Great book

Why did you do phillep so wrong? He just wanted to help Brit the younger.

I love this series

I love this series. Only thing I would really like to see more character growth.

Fantastic book!!!

I think this is the best book in the entire Magic 2.0 series. A well written story. I loved the ending!

I love this series

but I hate Britt and I love Philip!
I love hos character development and I cannot wait for rhw next book. who is the enemy? What happens to poor Philip?

What a downer...

I read/listen to stories to be entertained and to escape the BS of life. I expect that from a Magic 2.0 book, a fun escape. Instead I get a frustrating, depressing trek through a hopelessly impossible situation that is only possible if the author decides to no longer adhere to the character traits and personalities established in previous books. It feels kinda like a betrayal. It wasn't fun and it's not worth reading for the plot, not with the way it ends. I thought right up to the end that it was going to pull though but it only drove the knife deeper into my soul, cutting and biting and wrenching my insides.

It really wasn't the pick me up I needed in my life. There should be a disclaimer on it warning people who suffer from depression not to read it as it could be hazardous to your health.

Luke Daniels is spectacular as always.

Another hit!

Another fantastic book in the series. I need the next one asap. Takes the storyline in fun new directions that for the structure of the universe.

So good

Luke Daniels is so darn good at creating distinct voices for each character. The plot is a fun mind twist of time traveling shenanigans.

Brit is a douchebag...just saying.

I love these books. The narrator does an amazing job as usual, but it seems like every book I listen to lately has the same theme. All the men are usually idiots in some way and the women are always self satisfied jerks who have to suffer their male counterparts lack of IQ. I felt so bad for Phillip in this book.

*Spoiler ahead* *SERIOUSLY!!*





*Technically Brit sabotaged her whole relationship by asking her boyfriend to help her. Blamed him for it, breaks up with him and makes it all his fault and everyone just accepts it and doesnt say anything?? seriously?? No one points out how messed up it is and the fact that the only reason he didn't tell her was the entire universe might of blown up come to find out it was all her anyway and she blames him? What in the ****? What is wrong with society where this seems to be the norm in writing now. Is it normal for every male protagonist to be dumb as a rock and the strong independent women selflessly put up with their silly antics ffs? Do no characters have any common sense or backbone. SHEESH!

Disappointed

The other books were grate. This one was probably good until the end makes you forget the book was good.
