Loved the series up until the last few books. Clearly BH is just dialing it in now. Barry, if this about fulfilling a contract requirement just give them the $ back. You’re too good for this. Narration continues to be spectacular though. That’s the only reason I could finish it.
I saw advertisements for this series billing it as “Hitchhiker’s guide to the Apocalypse” and generally comparing it with the masterwork of Douglas Adams. That, it is not. Its a cute story with an irreverent look at post-apocalyptic themes but it lacks the actual humor of the compared work. Still 20 hours for 1 credit..
I liked the 2 main characters. Especially Murphy. He added depth and humor to the story.
I actually read Robert Evans’s memoirs The Kid Stays in the Picture before I read this, and I feel like I’m so enriched with knowledge and culture. So interesting to know so much about one of the greatest films ever made.
I could not stop listening to this one. Even if you think you know everything about the making of GF, there is something new here for you. I will reread this at some point.
Review from Awakening →
Love the story so far, and how the status sheets are done. MC is super intelligent/good with magic, and it shows! Funny moments, and the gritty side of being a necromancer.
Review from Book of the Dead 2: Sacrifice →
This book is so good. What great storytelling. The story could end here and I’d be satisfied, but can’t wait for a 3rd one. Plenty of humor, hard fought battles, cool magic system, and emotional impact.
I love the story, the plot the characters and development. However, the side stories and reading everything such as stats, perks, skills and descriptions is like 30% of the book. I don’t like Zach’s progression as much either , unlike other characters I feel like it’s a lot of plot armor over and over again…
Review from Proof of Life After Life →
I liked all of it was nothing to dislike because I truly want to believe there is something light and warm and humbling and joyful after this life to go into another..🙇😑💙🩵🩷💜🩷
How long do we have to wait until next book?😔 It’s very interesting and way too real!!!! I love the slow burn series and characters listened/read twice now, looking forward to this next series. Keep writing!!!
