Surrounded by secrecy, it is home to the wildest dreams and darkest nightmares. Incredible amounts of money have been lavished on it. The best minds of two generations have labored to build it. And somehow, bit by bit, it is claiming the Earth's most valuable resource - its children.

Listened to this series several times.

Typical Tad Williams

One thing others have noted, which could be jarring, is that there's no distinct indication when he's switching character POVs, but this is the same in the book -- if I recall correctly, there is maybe an extra space between paragraphs but no line of separation or little design or anything. So that's fairly true to the book as well.
Overall, I really enjoyed this. Tad Williams is one of my favorite authors for world building (check out War of the Flowers, which is a one-shot, not part of a series) and this series, with all its length, really has the ability to dive into the world(s).
Fantastic world building + great narration

Otherworld is the top of the tall pile for me. I first read it when it came out in paperback, and have reread it several times. Now that my eyes aren't so good, Audible helps.
The fabulous and flawless handling of buildup of characters of many different protagonists and also, several different villains along with vivid imaginative but believable well flowing story details of an horrifically possible near dystopian future makes this series outstanding.
This is it.
