Bad Ass Author!

Reading this story of difficult decisions and major responsibilities, some heartbreak, laughter, and love has filled my day dreaming mind with excitement! I'm looking forward to book 2! Thank you Libby Webber you rock!! PS. I hope Michael Neeb narrates the next he's got characters down lol -SW

A good story worth listening to

A good story that hits just about every major topic you’d expect associated with a book called The Assassin’s Legacy.
Love, betrayal, murder, greed, suspense and family. It has the type of suspense where you may find yourself wondering if you would make the same hard decisions the characters made or if you would take a different approach.
Overall it was entertaining and well worth checking out.

So well written!

This book truly had you on the edge and invested in the characters and invested in the world. Just all around and lovely book!

An interesting escape

I enjoyed the story. I am a Jiujitsu nerd and Marine so enjoyed the training sequences. Also how the story brought in hardships of struggling and living with life choices. We can never go back and change our decisions. Also no one is a perfect hero. I’m excited to get the next one! An had the pleasure of meeting the author at a Jiujitsu seminar!

WHAT A RIDE!!

The other day, I finished The Assassin's Legacy and just HAD to get the second book.

I. Am. SHOOK.

Legacy was a rollercoaster of emotions. But Sin?? I feel like I've been dunked in lava while riding said rollercoaster with a seatbelt that barely holds on and I'm rocketing towards the polar ice caps through the jungle. It is WILD!!

A book has not made me cry real tears in SUCH a long time. You will NOT be disappointed!!

So, this book turned out to not quite be for me.

Aeron's father's character arc was one of my favorites, though I'm not sure why it wrapped the way it did. He and Ivan carried the story for me, and I would've loved to see more from them.

As for the main team of assassins, I'm not sure why these people who've trusted each other explicitly for the sake of all their lives and shared everything have suddenly decided to hide everything from each other, even when it puts them in danger.

Especially Luke. He turned his back on all his morals and oaths to protect Aeron, hiding it all from her, when coming clean with her would've kept her safer.
And she wasn't much better.

All told, this story is basically what happens when a tight knit team forgets everything they've ever learned about working together.

And the author probably should've done more research on cars to make a main character a mechanic. At one point, Aeron was tearing down and cleaning an engine. Cool.

But she was holding a single cylinder. Not quite possible. Unless she meant a cylinder sleeve (which would've required a press to get it out) or a slave cylinder for the brakes (but why remove that when cleaning the engine?).

And I really didn't care for the ending. It was abruptly cut off, and the amount of guilt that was put on Aeron for the things Luke did just didn't sit right with me.

It feels like there should be a second book, but I don't think there's going to be a sequel.

For a book about assassins, it sure left a lot of loose ends.

The audiobook narration was good. It got even better for me (a fan of Bob's Burgers and Archer) when I realized that the voice used for Aeron's dad sounded like Bob Belcher (so like Archer but not hitting on every woman around) and the voice used for Aeron was like a combination of the Belcher kids. Gina Louise Belcher. Strange, I know, but it honestly made it better for me. Lol.
