A great sequel

A great story, well woven. my issue lies in the lousy effects added to the reading to sound demonic or echoing, but end up sounding like a child playing with cheap sound effects.

Also mispronounces words like athame.

Great Story/Great World and Magic!

I’m not a pro so I don’t have the literary knowledge I entertain as I review like some. I don’t do spoilers either. To be short and sweet, this is a great sequel to the first installment of the series. The action is often, the places, people, and things to explore are numerous and wondrous. I love the sound effects. I think it was alright considering when it was done. Lol either way it’s not so bad I’d have to give a negative comment or rating for. Check it out if you love, Sanderson, Martin, Wight etc

Hidden gem

I gave little effort in Reading the synopsis. What it doesn’t capture are the multifaceted everyday hero’s that click a special place in my heart.

Hard to follow.

I don’t think it was worth the effort.

Names hard to keep up with.

Split it up for those who listen more than others

From an Audio standpoint, and maybe even as the book, break it up. it's OK to have more chapters. It is hard to find the spot you lost focus (work, wife,kids,anyone) when it's 30-60 min between chapters. I'm sure with many committed listeners. you are doing and facing unscheduled interruptions. you have to go back, and back, and. but when 1 chapter covers three + storylines and 35+ minutes.... but the story is amazing!! just insane to follow!!!!!

These are the most repetitive books ever written.

This has to be the worst series I've ever read. If you've read the first book, you've read the first four books. Each one has the exact same plot, with almost the exact same characters, all the way through. And there are apparently nine of them. I'd maybe read the first one, and the last one, probably won't have missed a thing. These were free here on audible, only reason I kept going as long as I did, no way I'm slogging through the rest of this crap.

Meh

Kind of a "meh" story. The characters are a bit surface-level and everything moves so fast that it feels like you can never really watch a character develop. I'm going to continue, but that's really just because I like long listens and I've been craving fantasy since I finished the wheel of time series.
