Story4.5 out of 5 stars 943
Phoebe, the soulless child, has been raised by her adoptive father, Eric—the universe-hopping vampire wizard from the future. After all, who better to raise a soulless infant than an undead monster? He did his best to raise her right. He made certain she was well-educated. He picked a reasonably decent culture for her to grow up in. He trained her in her powers, taught her everything he could, and even broadened her horizons by touring other worlds, other times, other histories—and some futures!

There is some foreshadowing of the events of the next Pheobe story in Nightlord 8. also the story dragonhunters has got to be future Tuata so that's got to be significant we keep coming back to Tuata. Phoebe was from there originally both her biology and that celestial energy being that passed into her mom while pregnant with her.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 15
You don't become a hero for the money. The money's nice, sure, but you become a hero because something inside compels you, drives you to it. Defending people from monsters simply doesn't pay well enough to make it a good career move. As for hunting dragons goes... well, the money is usually good, but the job really bites. Burnout is all too common. Come along as a group of five professional heroes go into the lair of a dragon. Who will win? Spoiler: The dragon.

This is future Tauta right?
Reviewed: 02-27-25
Eric calls it Shard world the... first time his younger self visits(the beginning of this book). After time travel and setting up his alter ego in Tauta he researched on his void station for 200 years then goes back to Tauta to find the once hollow planet has shattered into pieces forming Shard world. The implications that he keeps affecting his own past over and over again is interesting. most of this book is the story of the after effects of the poeple and ghosts he met on his first short visit. it was fun and I have a feeling we may see more of Shard world both future and past. I'm hoping to see how Tauta becomes shards in the next Phone story

what happened to Charlie? Mike keeps alluding to something being up with him after the battle with Payne. Did Payne nip him, just a little nibble to make him a half vamp? Maybe we'll find out in the newer books I'm on my way to doing a reread.

In the Third Age, an Age of Prophecy, the World and Time themselves hang in the balance. What was, what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the Shadow.

The Source, the natural wellspring of Magic in the world, is stretched to the breaking point. If gluttonous witchcraft and human usurpers are not curtailed, it will vanish from the Nine Realms, taking with it every legendary race, and the magical sway of all that is good in the world will disappear forever. Before that end, the gods themselves will wage a final destructive war on Creation. The quest to save Magic at all costs is at hand, and an ancient prophesy awakens.

This was the only book I didnt buy on Spotify because of how bad Spotify is. I am very upset that after all that political drama about audible/Amazon not giving him and other authors enough money, forcing me to use Spotify an app I never use and have to uninstall to stop all the ads(the books were on Google but dragon steel only told people it was on Spotify) not to mention Spotify put ads on the content I paid for...NOW YOU PUT THEM ON Audible!!!! If you're going to put these on Audible now after all that they should be free. Screw you Brandon Sanderson! You greedy @$$. Now if I want to get my audiobooks back in the one app that I have used for years I have to buy them again....no no no no. Brandon Sanderson and everyone at Dragon steel are a bunch of grifting con artists. I couldn't even enjoy your stories anymore because of your greed. Some of your readers/listeners are poor.... We are not Amazon... We are not the corporate drones that aren't giving you enough money to buy that vacation home you're looking at. I can barely afford rent for a tiny apartment and you want more out of me? All you really did was Gatekeep your fans from your stories and then in the end you did put them on Audible either caving like a coward that doesn't stand behind his words or just trying to get us to buy things twice... Shame on you. Now I know where your inspiration for Moash came from, he's you. You have no Honor. You have lost my respect.

Strength dwindles as the Talbot tribe make their trek into the Darien Gap, 60 miles of broken highway and inhospitable terrain through the sweltering Central American wilderness. Stinging from their recent losses, the group is forced to sleep suspended in trees to avoid the hordes thriving there, but that brings only a temporary, miserable reprieve.

Really interested to see what becomes of this alternative reality Mike. What happens to twist him into the anger we see in this book. The tease of Trips past at the end makes me hope we'll see more of him in the near future. Also are we sure Mike is not Ta'veren... I mean could he be the first incarnation of the Dragon?

Reviewed: 01-05-24
Michael Talbot is very fastly becoming a shining example of how a man in this day and age can still have classical masculinity while not allowing it to become "toxic" to the relationships in his life. Maintaining a sense of honor, duty, and brotherhood while still open to his emotions and the thoughts, emotions, and opinions of others. The devil's desk series is starting to really open up the multiverse more. Trip being less vague and more open about the multiverse has amazing potential to really dig into it more. The "guy who narrates Garon Whited's books" reference tripped me up. Really hoping Eric(Nightlord) gets brought back into a Michael Talbot book. If Talbot is ever closely looked at by Eric I can't help but feel Eric will want to study the multiverse anomaly that is Michael Talbot. Mark Tufo.... if you got some kind of epic "Endgame" conclusion your building to I hope I live to read it. A multiversal war featuring multiple versions of characters from across the Tufovers not just Mike feels like it's slowly brewing. I loved BT I'm this, his personal Rambo style war against the yetis felt right. made me think a book with BT as more the main character would be very fun.

"This is the part I play" - Trip. I'm still wondering if Charlie will come back in the newer books with Mike making his way up from South America Charlie could show up in Texas. Charlie also could be a vampire now because I'm very suspicious that he was bitten by Payne. Mike keeps saying "I didn't think of anything of it then" or "wish I had realized it then". seems like some foreshadowing but there are a line of storylines running all at once in ZF or just the Tufoverse... Talbotverse?

One of the more heart wenching emotional books. When BT holds Mike in his arms and makes him say "we'll make it through this" and they cry together. Thank you for that moment. A ture friendship is hard to find. while this one is fictional I can only hope there are some deep human truths it stems from.
