The triology is a good series for people getting in to fantasy, are young or simply have not read much. But if you are well versed in books and specificly fantasy there are a couple of things that becomes annoying. But overall an okey story

This is sort of a rating on all 3 of the books since most people probably dont only read one.

The first and third book are both written in a similar style with a flowing story progression, but the second book is written in a very abruptly changing way, jumping from character to character in a way that makes it annoying to listen to. You dont realy get to have any flow in the story.

The story itself is good with a easy style probably intended to young adults. The magic system and history is not fleashed out enough to be called detailed. The characters seems to flow from being smart to be stupid to be smart again and do not realy feel believeable. Time is also hard to get a good grip of. does something take a few weeks or is it years we speak of?

Narrator does a fine job.
Overall a 3 star production.

Interesting concept of having a incident happening to Ripley between the movies Alien and Aliens. Its nicely crafted and the story is pretty good, but like allways in the instances with the xenomorph people are freakin stupid. There are so many times the characters are insanely naive of what an ai can do and what would be the smartest choice to make in a specific situation.

So first of... the MC is stupid. Like insanely, horribly, lifethreatningly stupid.

I don't like stupid characters, and books with them tend to make me annoyed (which this book does) but the main point of this book is the incredible dynamic between the sidecharacters and the MC. Listening to the first 4 and this box made me burst out laughing multiple times.

If you are looking for some pure gold in edgy humor and perfection in banter between very close friends, look no further.

Like the title says its good for teenagers... not so much for adults. The characters are really stupid for their described age and experience. Parts of the plot is really weak and feels very forced to get the story to a specific point.

With 2 hours left I was plnning to give this a 1 star rating. I am very glad I didnt. Only reason for it not being a 5 star is because stupid characters and odd pauses in the recording

Now, this book is alright. The story has some interesting ideas. But if there has ever been a more basic, nonedescript fantasy story I've not heard about it. *SMALL SPOILERS* The main character goes from newly minted slave to an expert of his slavers daily routine and practises within a scentence. Characters are described with name, age, haircolor and eyecolor. Maincharacter goes from mouthy, arrogant peseant into a mouthy arrogant bodyguard of a princess within a couple of hours (in story time, not hours of the book) because he defeated a mage that were going to execute him for breaking a law. Things just happen without direct motivation.

The narrator has an awesome voice but he slams his performance by doing waay to grovly voices for too many characters which, paired up with heavy accents, sometimes becomes impossible to understand.

EDIT: Fter having finished the entire book, my rating is still the same. Very basic plot, very flat characters and mumbly narration.

Figuratively sat at the edge of my seat the entire book. Brandon Sanderson is crazy good and Alyssa did a wonderfull performance. The emotions of the characters realy came to life.
