Wannabe Wizard: From the Tome of Bill Universe

False Icons Series, Book 2

De: Rick Gualtieri, R. E. Carr

Narrado por: Andrea Emmes

Some family trees should be burned to the ground

My name is Jessie Flores and I thought I was done being jerked around by witches, dryads, and gods in my quest to become a real-life superhero. Turns out they were just getting started.

My father's been kidnapped, a handsome vampire with a shady past won't stop shadowing me, and my best friend's family is actively trying to kill him.

Fixing all of that won't be easy, though, since I've been cursed to complete 13 divine trials, while a newb fury haunts my every step. If I fail, I'll die. If I hesitate, my friends will suffer instead.

I might not have enough power in me to save my loved ones and satisfy the whims of the gods. But you know what? I'm willing to die trying. Because that's what a real hero would do.

An Awesome Follow-up

The second book in the Fasle Icon series certainly doesn't disappoint. Jumping back into the adventures of Jesse, Wyatt, and Gary was like diving into a cool, refreshing pool on a hot summer day.

A great addition to the Tomb of Bill Universe

This is a lot of fun to listen too, great story and the reader does a great job. If you are coming in without hearing or reading the books, you may be confused for a few chapters. So check out Second String Savior first, also check out to Tomb of Bill. lost of fun all of the way through.

Wow!

So strange to read some of the Time of Bill happenings from a different perspective, but still a great story. I can't wait to see what happens next!

Not your average teen vampire story

I'm really enjoying this alt timeline of Bill's story. In some ways, this teen seems more "real" than you get in a non fantasy story. Just fun and entertaining. Looking forward to number 3

Loved it… But

I can’t believe I missed the second string savior thing. I thought because she was a false icon Jesse was the savior. Now I see that was not the case. Mind Blown!!

One of my favorite authors

His books are just fun. I really enjoy the story & humor. Characters are great too. This 2nd book in the series reveals a little more of Jessie’s history & ties her story to the Tome of Bill well.

excellent narration

unlike the Tomb of bill series the story didnt seem as straight forward and there were moments when I needed to rewind a bit just to make sure I heard things right or didnt get lost. Definitely interested in book 3 when it comes out.

A great companion to the BillVerse

I have been loving this series. the tie-ins to the other books, following the events and the Dryads are always fun. Can't wait for more!

narration

narration uninspiring and since I am required to submit fifteen words, so to sum up narrator (I hope that you have another job) because I will pass on any project that she narrate.

I had to give up

I could not finish this one. It is too silly. The humor is immature. I would not recommend listening even for free.
