I hesitated to purchase this because of the various negative reviews. However, I took a chance and I’m glad I did. I don’t agree with the 1 and 2 star reviews. I get where the reviewers are coming from, but they simply need to move on to a different genre, for this book is not meant for them. You have to be able to understand and appreciate irony and sarcasm, but also consistency in universe building: demons & monsters will do demonic and monsterly things, it’s who they are. It’s not kind, it’s not compassionate, it’s not human. So don’t expect any human nor humane behavior.
To me this book is well-written and I consider it an entertaining listen, with lots of action and some great jokes. A fun book.
Narration is great, with some sound effects and different ‘voices’ for each character.
After finishing it I immediately purchased part 2, which by now I’ve also finished. So today I’ll be moving on to part 3 since I cannot wait to listen to more of this series.
A great find, highly recommend!
(For some context: I’m a female scifi & fantasy lover in my fifties.)
