I listened to the first series of books written by this author and didn’t like it. Thinking that maybe it was just a bad example of his work, I tried the second set of stories set in the same “universe.” Look, there’s nothing wrong with an author who creates a world then in another book uses that created world to tell a different story. Which is my first complaint. This first book? It is basically the identical story, different characters, same theme, same plot as the previous first book. The character is stuck far from home. The character has to get home. The character has a hard time getting home. Why this guy thought he could write a believable female college student is just bizarre. Both versions of the same book are equally bad. The narrator might be the worst I have ever listened to before. I made it about halfway through Book 2 before telling Audible to mark it as finished.
