comedy and humor

the story moves at a good rate and doesn't drag it's self out. love this series.

Continued life of a potion maker

love this series great pacing and really gets that OP hero trope down right. Great series can't wait for the next book

good book but...

I'm a big fan of this series and enjoy these books greatly. However why does it seem like the MC is getting weaker. He was pretty over powered but it seems like he's having a harder and harder time unless he gets help. Also I'm sure the story said that strong magicians were rare but stronger and stronger enemies seem to be popping up everywhere. meh still a good series.

could this get any better? wow

this series is so epic it's not even funny! keep up the great work, great story, great characters, and great progression.

Could have been shorter and better

Take out all the continued repeating of system messages and introspection and this is a lot shorter and better.

solid

this book is a lot of fun. especially love the VLDL and ATLA references. not the best book ever but if you made it this far into the series it is worth the listen

Wanda's bubbly bottom! I am in love with The Dreamlights!

Book Review: The Old Family by Alvin At Waters

Let me just say, The Old Family is a literary gem that feels like stepping into a world brimming with heart, depth, and unforgettable characters. Alvin At Waters has crafted a masterpiece where each character feels like someone you know—or wish you did.

The characters are the soul of this story. I found myself completely immersed in their lives, cheering for their wins, mourning their losses, and savoring every moment of their growth. The character development is simply phenomenal; it’s as if they grow right alongside you as you read. Every interaction and decision feels intentional, layered, and real.

And don’t even get me started on the potential for spin-offs. Wanda (you know exactly who I mean!) is sitting on a goldmine of stories waiting to be told. With a cast this rich and vibrant, there’s no way this universe can stop with just one book. I’m already imagining five—yes, FIVE—more installments, and I know there’s enough brilliance here to carry several spin-offs too. Alvin At Waters has created a world that could easily become a series staple on my bookshelf.

If you love books that wrap you in a family dynamic that’s as complicated as it is endearing, with characters that linger in your heart long after the final page, The Old Family is a must-read. Here’s hoping Alvin At Waters hears my plea for more stories because I’m not ready to leave this family behind.

the development of the characters.

how pieces to the story lines start to come together, as well as character reveals.

Good but distracting audio issues

I’m satisfied with the continuation of the story and really looking forward to the next book. That being said, I do wish there was a character chart of some kind or a brief allegiances section read prior to the prologue. It may just be me, but with so many characters and outside elements involved at this point I’m starting to get some characters (as well as their goals) confused. As for the performance I’m mostly satisfied, but there were multiple times when I could hear the narrator’s phone(s?) vibrating which was very distracting. Plus I’m not sure what it’s called, but I really dislike the changes to narration that are made whenever a “demonic” voice is described or used. It’s nowhere near as often as in previous installments, but when used the words spoken are nearly unintelligible and I have to rewind multiple times to parse out the sentence.

Good follow-up to the last book

The male narrator may need a new mic, or tone down his volume when making overly loud noises like maniacal laughter, it was breaking up bad during those parts. Good follow up to the last book, though the MC still feels like he’s waffling again about getting stronger as if nearly being killed by a demon in the last book shouldn’t have nailed that home already, you have a family to protect…
