had potential but left wanting....

started out well, but ended very much over the top. main character suddenly goes from nothing to most powerful being in seconds. lots of loose threads.

Great Book

Starts out slow but continues to get better. Great story.
Great for adults and teens.

Very enjoyable. Good story, strong characters

The narration was very clever. Both narrators were invested in the story and the swapping between them gave a more personal toich to the story. My favourite line, probably to paraphrase, was "Magic is just science you don't understand yet"

#tidyonions

absolutely brilliant. no spoilers here just filling space. excellent get it now. #tidyonions. blah n blah

A teen book more than adult listening

I found the jumping around between time and characters difficult at first but got the hang of it after restarting the book 3 times,I found the number of characters with similar names very difficult but with a bit of tweaking would be a good movie!

Childish Rubish

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

I the story had made sense and been written by someone who had a bit more of an idea of how to string a few words together

What didn’t you like about the narrators’s performance?

the story was so bad it was difficult to rate the narrators performance

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from WaR: Wizards and Robots?

All of it!

wasn't sure on the multiple readers

story pretty good, seemed to jump around a bit too many times, transitions probably working better if I was reading rather than listening. for a 1st book he did well
