The Sky Wolves are back and still doing their thing… which mostly means getting beat up by enemies too tough for them. They spend nearly the entirety of book three running for their lives. But in the process they add a couple of fun new members to the party and have some excellent fights with beasts and bad guys!
This book picks up where the last one ended, so if you are new to the series there is no point starting anywhere but book 1. Hopefully you have already enjoyed the first two books so have a pretty good idea what to expect here. Personally, i decided to get a running start and listen to #1-2 again!
My favorite aspect of the story so far is the struggle of each character to come to terms with power that is clearly too much for them. They are all babies with bazookas and only barely have control of their power, but they have to keep fighting. The cast is diverse and so is the way they respond to the pressure of being in over their heads. It adds a nice amount of depth to books that are mostly one fight after another.
I enjoy Darren Hultberg’s writing style. He paints a picture well and his sometimes unexpected word choices keep me engaged and amused. Andrew Tells the story perfectly as always and makes it easy to follow along. Thanks again to both of you!
