Definitely worth a read.

Good book, would really love to see it become as big as Black Ocean or Twinborn Chronicles. The last few chapters seem a little rushed to me, like there is more story to tell, but time constraints demanded the book end.

The book is in first person, and from a single perspective, a big change for the author, which makes much of what is going on for the other characters at any given point a mystery and leading to a few surprises for both main character and reader/listener.

Narration isn’t bad, but unfortunately you can occasionally hear breath on the microphone, or hear it being keyed on or off.

I enjoyed the couple pop culture references that were included, Warhammer 40k being a big hobby of mine, but at one point a Final Fantasy character is mentioned as being from the wrong game.

Overall, I would recommend it if you are a fan of J.S. Morin’s other work. If you haven’t read or listened to his other series, finish this up, then head out into the Black Ocean.
