ready for the next book

it was hard to stop reading this book but sometimes you have to get other stuff done. the flow of the story holds you and makes you want to pull an all nighter to finish it. Well done!

Twists and turns to keep you guessing and turning pages!

I really loved how the author laid out the timelines of the different characters. It kept me on my toes and trying to guess what was going on before it was revealed (I love solving a good mystery).

The characters were all relatable and it didn’t feel like the decisions they made were unrealistic. There were multiple times while reading the series something would happen to the characters and I would feel it personally, whether positive or negative, and that is always a good sign to me that the characters make choices that are true to real life. I really appreciated that not everything falls into place for the hero and that the hero isn’t perfect at everything immediately and never makes mistakes.

As you go through the series, you can definitely tell the author got more confident and experienced in writing the dialogue between characters as it improves. Each book was better than the next.

The world building was detailed enough that I could picture everything clearly in my head, but not so detailed that it was info-dumpy. Thanks to this book series. I now want to go live in the treetops.

Book 2 takes the action up a notch!

Book 2 takes the action up a notch!
Though I enjoyed Book 1, I enjoyed Book 2 even more as the action, drama, and twists were taken up a notch. Great details by the author, delivered perfect by the Narrator, made this a a great listen!
