Third book a great continuation of the story

The year jumps are a little off putting, but has to be and easy to transition to the ages of the characters. Kind of some heavy material review and at least talked about if not dealt with or being dealt with. Tinaris is still going a mile a minute and doing the her normal wow lest try this. But, other characters are developed and get more page time.

was enjoyable and was over before I knew it. wanted more of the story

Good for the most part

really didn't care for the voice acting at the end where a certain character is introduced

Exposition: the light novel

Most of the story is people sitting around and talking. This is the plot/world building/lore dump that’s likely setting up the rest of the series. It can be a bit dry, but important events do happen and it is short enough to digest in a couple days.

I was completely caught off-guard by the male performer halfway through the book. His performance was still pretty bad, but at least his pronunciation has improved.

The last 30 minutes were grating, and don’t have much impact to the story as a whole. Unless certain events repeat themselves, I would feel safe in saying that it’s okay to skip it if you don’t want to listen to a man voice act as a dog and children.

Thank the air that Tinaris dropped the idiot ball back in book 2. She’s back to being a pretty smart adult trapped in a kid’s body. Her interactions, especially with Renge, truly make this book enjoyable.

Renge alone adds a whole star to the rating. Aloof characters are a dime a dozen, but a well written one that feels believable is not something you see too often in books or tv shows.

Love it!!!

it is a great story and I can not wait for the next one to come out.

Great little series!

Short but slowly coming into its own. Jumping right into the the next volume.

Loved it!

I'm really enjoying this story. The characters feel genuine and the world building, although obvious, is incredible. I can't wait to see how far the author takes it!

Love the performance and so far the story

I think Cassandra Morris and Graham Halstead so far are simply amazing with their narration. They sound so0 much like they are their character. With the small sighs and pauses between stuff. Definitely a good job in my opinion.

The story is getting pretty interesting, although if I'm honest, I like this concept and I have already listened to the other two books so I might be a bit biased. It's only 6 hours though, which is unfortunate for a credit when some books are like 18 to 22 hours a book lol. The main characters are pretty cool and interesting. The side characters like the side family members are a bit cliché and seem too formal or maybe normal is the word. Like the author tried to make them seem responsible and ordinary at times and then they just say I'm not anymore this one chapter. But overall I guess it works. It's a short book after all.

I give the performance of this book with no crying babies a 10/10. And the actual story an 8/10 for some actual world building, some character development and a couple of fight scenes. If you could call either that war / battle or the monster in town a fight. Not a 10/10 bc some characters seem to be there to literally take up time and space. Like a filler episode that gets your hopes up being good but then you'd rather just watch paint dry until you sleep.

Definitely a good addition to the story so far though lol. 8/10

Giving this up

I like the story but I’ll wait to read it myself. The performance is so bad I just can listen anymore. Very cringe worthy.

An Enjoyable Listen

This series isn't anything special, but it's certainly not bad either. I personally felt that this third volume felt weaker compared to the first two. Like everything and nothing was happening at the same time, or like the stakes were going up and down simultaneously. But the stakes and the grander plot aren't really what I'm here for anyway. I listen to this series because I like the characters and their personal journeys. The highlight of this volume for me was definitely when a new third narrator was introduced in the final section to tell a story about Mujimuji and the recently rescued children; that was adorable on several levels. All and all, I wouldn't call this a "good" story, but I would say I'm still enjoying it and will probably continue to listen to it during long vacations as new volumes are released.

Getting worse

I only got this to have something to listen to at work, and I regret it. Despite themes of human experimentation, slavery, corruption, and racism this is a hard children's book, with the narrators to match. The female narrator is consistently not good, but the male, oh boy the male narrator makes doing terrible while still being understandable a Olympic event.
