This audiobook is incredible! the narrators couldn't be anymore perfect for the roles they're reading and have ripped My heart out chewed it up spit it out and put it back together multiple times... so much so that I had to take a break after chapter 74 I think when Khan is telling the world how much he loves Rave and how shattered his heart will be.. I was crying my eyes out for a solid 40 minutes.. the narrators create such intensity through the story and the story itself is spell binding.

outstanding

I really liked this book. The world is interesting and feels unique, and the plot is nicely put together. My only wish is that the story would be presented in a way that the glossary/PDF would not be needed, as it "rips you out of the story" when you have to pause and look something up. I personally prefer a writing style a bit less "fluffy" but for those who do like it, I think this book in many ways will be a home run.

A promise of potential

This audiobook takes a look of concentration but the female voice actor is so off putting at the beginning. I replayed the first 10 chapters a few times and almost gave up, I am so glad I didn’t! The book itself is wonderful, a magnificent read/listen (once you get past her annoying voice that sounds like AI)
I cannot wait for book 2!

Hard to listen at the beginning

Enjoyable storyline and basically couldn’t put it down! Waiting for the next one in this series

Great characters to invest in….

This was a book of two halves for me. The first few hours of this I was completely lost. Intrigued, but lost! The world building is very much happening as you go along, rather than as part of the introductions to the story and the character. Things are worked out as the story progresses so just go with that low level bafflement initially and discover the story along with the characters. It’s a really beautiful story and I can’t wait for the next!!

The END CREDITS mention the glossary that’s a free pdf download. I’d strongly recommend looking at that before you start the book so you’re not as lost as I was!

Such a cool world and magic system

This one is a little confusing to me, as it had some good parts. That said, this book could have had the same plot, and been cut down to 10 hours instead of its 20+ hours. I like that there’s a pdf to refer to, however one of the big reveals at the end can be spoiled by reading it thoroughly, which takes away from the experience massively. I also guessed another major plot point early in the book, which meant I found myself rather bored while waiting for the reveal.

The world building feels unique, but I don’t feel it massively necessary for the plot itself, more like an interesting side note.

The main character also feels somewhat one dimensional (I must be alone because everyone close to me dies) which after a while makes her motives rather unbelievable. That said, there was a very moving moment that I actually believed the male narrators pain, and full on sobbed for a while.

There is a lot of potential here, it’s just got a bit of a messy execution. Will maybe check back with this author after a few years!

Interesting world building but…

The world is full of dragons and sometimes when they die, they curl up to a ball in the sky and die. Thats the moons. I guess the world is sort of cool, but the story is a bit slow, I’ve listened through the whole thing and i never really felt like they got to the point. I’m betting the next book will be better.

It has some nice spice, but it comes without buildup.

A bit confusing at times
