Tales of the Neverwar - a YA Fantasy Adventure: The Boxset

De: CJ Rutherford

Narrado por: Katie Welburn

Magic can kill you, even if you don’t believe in it.

Katheryne didn’t want to be different. She definitely didn’t want to be a hero.

Thrust suddenly into a world she never believed existed, a world of awakening magic, she has no choice.

The old power, hidden for millennia, is returning to our universe. But the power is not alone. Something selfish, something evil awakens in the shadows. Something that wants the magic for itself.

Katheryne must band together with a group of elite interdimensional warriors to battle for control of the magic.

It’s a battle she must win, for if she loses, everything she loves will perish.

Tales of the Neverwar is a clean YA series, a unique blend of science fiction, fantasy, and romance.

AMAZING

WHAT AN AWESOME SERIES, I AM SO HAPPY IT CAME AS A BOX SET THAT WAY I DID NOT HAVE TO WAIT TO LISTEN TO THE OTHER BOOKS. THIS IS A SERIES I WILL LISTEN TO AGAIN.

Great modern day Epic Adventure

This is a great Adventure story , the story spans thousands of years & still pulls it all together to make it entertaining & unpredictable.
It has the feel of a modern day Lords of Rings feel to it & still has elves, dragons & other mythical creatures .
The Narrator does a good job with the Narration & is easy to listen to.
I recieved this book free for an unbiased review.

Very Planned Out!

So much detail was put into the "plan" within these books! World build up was done very well, describing and explains all the new things at just the right time. I had many laughs and a couple of cries. The characters were just amazing, I felt like I was right there with them the entire time! Couldn't get enough!

Narration was great. There were a few spots towards the beginning that I didn't care for how a few characters were voiced, other than that, it was great. There was just enough variation in voices you could tell who was talking.

Wonderful series!!

It's ALL in there

Dragons, magic, unicorns, and fierce battles. Space ships, Aliens, time travel. An ambitious world spanning adventure interlaced with love stories and bitter rivalries.
You'll need to pay close attention, because it jumps around quite a bit and characters are introduced from every which direction, but it all comes together in the end.

A great setting for Teens and Adults

A series of separate stories, Neverwar really hits all the fantasy buttons, and fires on all cyclinders. The first tales can be considered as "world builder" stories, they set the stage and really give you a feel for the setting and the people that inhabit it. The last few stories take the what you start with and build up from there. It is a good progression, and each could be a stand alone tale unto themselves.

When I say setting, I mean setting, as it deals with different worlds and different races. This does not take away from the tales at all. Instead it really helped the story grow. It is interconnected from the start, even though you may not see it at first.

I will say that Rutherford really paints a verbal picture. You feel what the characters do, their triumphs and defeats. You are there with them. The nemesis is believably evil; a rarity in this genre most of the time. Also, this is not a straight fantasy piece, it touches into sci-fi territory and we get Rutherford's take on parallel dimensions.

Welburn is really great in her role, as she really has some heavy lifting to do, as Rutherford does not hold back on the roller coaster ride. Her voice is sweet and soothing and fits the storyline. I never wished for a different narrator, and I do have some favorites that I prefer to listen to. I think she may have just entered my stable of preferred narrators. I think I need a few more books to be certain, but yeah. . . I think she's in.

Rutherford has now become a name I will look for when I am seeking something new and different. By the way, my teens listened with me as we drove, and they loved it too.
