The Narrator is amazing

The book is very well written. the characters are detailed and feel realistic, however as good as the writing and author are and they are amazing. The Narrator truly brings this book to life. She adds so much feeling to how she reads the book and even though I already read the book, listening to Hel made the book even better. Definitely recommending this to others

Captivating Build-Up, Worth the Wait!

This was a thrilling ride from start to finish. The author masterfully built up the tension, layer by layer, leaving me eagerly turning the pages (or, in this case, listening to the next chapter). The pacing was just right—slow enough to savor the intricate details, yet fast enough to keep me hooked.

What truly stood out to me was how the plot twist was handled. The entire book felt like a crescendo leading up to that moment, and when it hit, it was nothing short of brilliant.

The narration was top-notch as well. The narrator did an excellent job bringing the characters to life, and their voice perfectly captured the mood and atmosphere of the story. It was an added bonus that they sang through the songs to ensure the full experience. Highly recommended!

Visualization and character development

In all honesty, I rarely engage in reading or listening to books due to my ADHD, which hinders my ability to concentrate on the content. This is the first book I have read or listened to in eight years. However, I must express my genuine admiration for the work. The narration was amazing. I have been following her since early November, and when I learned about this book, I had high expectations, which were still surpassed.

As a truck driver, I managed to complete the book in a single trip. Remarkably, a nine-hour drive felt like a mere thirty minutes because the Narrator's and author's vivid storytelling brought the words to life.

The book itself is a remarkable tale, accurately reflecting the author's description and conveying the intended atmosphere. It evoked a distinct Pirates of the Caribbean vibe, set in a darker era, with subtle elements reminiscent of Assassin's Creed Black Flag. I am eagerly anticipating the release of the second book and intend to purchase additional books.

Exciting spicy fantasy

The steam punk mixed with water world mixed with fantasy was amazing! I loved the twists and turns! I lived for the darkness with human compassion, the spice and steam, all of it! Warning, this is only book one and it leaves you wanting more!

Peter Pan meets Water World in this steampunk masterpiece

This “oceanpunk” dark fantasy is so gripping and visceral. While the world is dark, the main characters are likable and their journey through the narrative is engaging. I can’t wait for the next book! The narrator’s annunciation sometimes bothered me but that was a minor thing.

Brilliant story and narration

Loved this book. The writing and narrator got me hooked from the first paragraph. If you like dark fantasy and interesting characters sprinkled with oceanic vibes everywhere, give this a listen/read.

WaterWorld goes hardcore

A dark, edgy, action-packed dystopian adventure with deep mysteries and a unique magic system of enchanted sea glass. Fast paced and high-octane plot that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Good Book Elevated by Great Narration

The audiobook is incredibly well-produced, featuring a compelling story and innovative worldbuilding. The story was good, though my gripe was with relationships that didn't make sense—like Viola and Rance—but the narrator truly elevates the experience. She breathes life into the text, adding layers of emotion and nuance that made listening even more enjoyable than reading. Although I enjoyed the book, hearing it narrated by Hel made it an entirely new and better experience.
