WARNING! THIS BOOK WILL CATCH YOUR ENTIRE FOCUS!!!

My goodness, what a ride! I listen while working, driving, or working around the house. This book did not allow for anything else to be done while listening. The second half of the book was so full of action that a plot twist could be missed in a blink. So many emotions were experienced during this story. When it ended, I was at a loss. But happily the last book came out today and I can go see how it all ends! YAY!

5stars

Well done. Well narrated.  will be looking forward to the next from this author. You should buy this book.

Excellent. So Much Emotion.

I finished up the fifth book in the series, The Bright Beast, so I knew what I was in for. But this was so much more.

I give a slight spoiler warning because this thing happens later in the book, but I need to talk around it a bit. There’s a scene about being “drawn” to someone that happens later on that for about 30 minutes straight, I had this goofy smile on my face. Knowles could write about really difficult and “landmine-like” topics around love and soulmates without ever really using those terms. While a complete cut-out from the rest of the book, I think this scene stood out to me. Even at the moment, I felt like Knowles was just making sure I had a smile on my face before sprinting towards the finale of this book.

I can’t talk about the last parts of the book, but I’ll send a bill for tissues to Knowles and Campbell (only slightly kidding). Knowles wrote just picture-perfect scenes. And Campbell added the emotion, love, loss, etc., to each without overdoing it. Which is MUCH harder than you’d think.

Overall, yeah, I loved it. A fiveish hour book that genuinely felt like a 10-hour one. Knowles was able to cram so much into such a small package. It felt like getting a tiny box on Christmas only to open it and find a key to something much bigger.

All The Feels

OMG, this book! This one really broke my heart. Alex Knowles really knows how and where to hit you with all the feels and I loved every minute of it! This installment's still action-packed, thrilling, and heartbreaking. I was a hot mess when I finished listening.

I hate Steve Campbell because he's sooooo damn good and brilliant with his narration! He had made me ugly cry so many times now. Great job!

Like Dragons and dungeon diving. Get this book!

It's seriously been a while since I read book 4 but surprisingly it didn't take to long for me to get with it. Juteng body is falling apart and he's holding on only because of his obligations but also in equal measure for revenge!
When Tytan finally gets to his home world Prime Zola... Tytan is immediately sent into the dungeon where he can power up! While he going as deep as he can, he finds the dungeon core actually cares for him, and wants him to succeed all the while trying her hardest to kill him.
This is prolly the best book in the Bright series so far. So yeah grab this book and go on the strangest dungeon dive ever!
Ohhhh and yeah Steve Campbell voice performance won't let you down.

*cry emoji*

this book, the emotional scenes are earned...
they are well written and boy are they performed well...

Emotions run strong

This is the setup for the final book.

The emotions that have been slowly building the entire season get thrown out the window and you get hit with a secondary set.

Steve put incredible feeling behind Alex’s words that made you partially feel what the characters were feeling during the events.

I can’t wait for the final

Entertaining read

I thought we would get more of the fight for Earth in this book but it was mainly about dragons and a new cultivation system. The narration was very well done.
