So I decided to give this book a try based of a reddit review back in 2021. I was only looking for something to break up my wheel of time binge, and wasn’t expecting to fall in love. I had seen people saying that this audiobook is well produced and funny in the right parts. I was not expecting epic adventure, intrigue,assassination, intergalactic government politics, explosions, loss, and many many other things. the pacing of this series makes it hard to put down, and everytime I re-read I find new little details and foreshadowing. sorry for the bad grammar, I’m writing this while on my 15min break. what I’m trying and failing to capture is that this series is one of the best most fun audiobook series I’ve had the pleasure of listening to. Jeff Hays along with the sound effects and mixing does a fantastic job bringing Carl and all of the insanity, choosing and quiet moments to life. my audio library is about around a 100 books deep at this moment and this series stands of as one of the best. I’ve never been a “waiting on a book to release” type but this series has changed that. truly fantastic work.
