Highly Simplistic

I tried to like this book, the narration was excellent and the concept interesting. However, the writing was simplistic and lacked depth. Would have been better marketed as a book meant for pre-teens. I made it to chapter 10 but couldn’t go any farther. Not the worst I have heard but just difficult to listen to.

The story was okay at best and I did not feel this story was that well thought out. The characters were shallow and undeveloped, and the writer tries to get by with sex appeal and bravado. Honestly, it just lacked that ability to hook you and I found myself a bit bored overall.

I read the first two books and was excited to see the third, however I hope the author reads this. I enjoyed the story but there were a few big issues that just took away from enjoying it fully.

First, Please god use some other form of explanation for a transition other than saying something changed constantly. I swear it took up half the sentences in the book (exaggeration but needed).

Second, the spoken sound effects are not needed and not done well. Just describe them like, he chucked, or he laughed, instead of ggg or kkk, it’s like nails on a chalkboard. Finally, pleassssse for the love of god, focus on your actual main character for at least the majority of the book. Some back story is needed sometimes, but this book spends so much time following other random insignificant characters that the story barely progresses at all. I feel cheated of the great story I was expecting, and instead it’s a book of background filler. Very disappointing.

Well take that as you will. I hope there is a book four and that the story actually moves forward in that one.

Overly complex at times, will likely cause disinterest with some. But the story is interesting and I look forward to seeing how it progresses.

Spoilers No story or character development at all. Absolutely nothing happens in the whole story except training and then in their first and only encounter they lose, and The End. Horrible. Its like someone wrote the first quarter of their book and said I’m gonna publish it. Not worth the credit.

Good story and build up without the excessive attention to harem elements that can ruin a story. Could use some more details in some places, like a bit more of attention to the main characters ability development, but still an enjoyable read. Looking forward to further development in the next book.

As always Michael Chatfield does not fail to amaze. I can’t wait for the next in the series.

Feels like I only heard the first quarter of a book not a whole novel. When it was over I was like wait, what? Where’s the rest?

*Looks under bed for missing half of book*

I have read all of the Bethany Anne Novels up until this point. But I found this one very disappointing. Other than a few scenes we barely see the main character, with the majority of time being spent with others. Also, I could have done without the whole chapters worth of content discussing how they were going to pair up the men and women. I mean a few sentences is alright but they spent multiple chapters on it. Missing was the descriptive badassary that I have come to expect from Michael Anderle.

I tried, I really did, but it's like the author could not decide on what story to tell. As soon as things started to get a bit interesting he jumped off on a tangent back story. Background was important but there was no flow and I was left wondering who was actually the main character. Could not even finish, had two hours left and gave up.
