About this listen

Save the spirits, save the world.

Haunted by a past that wants him dead, Carver must find a way to stop Riven's collapse before he becomes the very monster he's trying to save.

Carver's burning his days doing Guide work, patrolling Riven and helping its lost souls find their way while, back on Earth, World War One ratchets up the lives waiting for Carver's help. Problem is, those lives don't like waiting around, and when a new, angrier soul starts gathering the dead and directing them at Carver, being a Guide goes from dangerous to deadly real fast.

But why Carver, and why now? With his fellow Guides, Carver has to figure out why he's been marked and how to get the souls off his back, all while keeping Riven from spilling over. Because if the dead get back to Earth, life's going to have an unpleasant end.

Solving Carver's mystery brings the Guides through danger and disaster, both in Riven and back among the living, where forces see Carver as a fatal solution to Riven's growing problem. With enemies on all sides, Carver has to pull together unlikely allies and fast friends to try and save both himself and Riven from ruin.

The Riven Trilogy is an action-filled steampunk fantasy set during an alternate history of World War One. Packed with intriguing characters, deadly machinations, and rollicking adventure, The Riven Trilogy will take you on a story you've never seen before, in this world or the next.

This book needs help

What the heck is going on?

The author perhaps knows what is going on, but doesn't do a good job of helping the listener. Many new characters are brought in at a steady pace, along with spirits and some atmospheric bits. But the story never seems centered. Here's what's going on, here's two characters, here's why you should care. Instead, the first few hours have dozens of characters that jostle and talk about spirits without it making much sense to me.

Adding an introduction would likely help a lot. What is the war? World War One? There is a lot of magic in this world, but it's unclear how different this world is than Earth.

If there was a prologue, I'd listen to it several times. If I wasn't completely lost, I think I might like this book.

O'my God get to telling the story

This is not normally my genre but with all the times it across my social media as a suggestion I thought I would give it a try. I am sorry that I did. It was one of those books where I can zone out during my 35 min. commute and list for five min and be all caught up. The author tends to take something in the storyline, an emotion, color, or a sense an describe it to the point that you never want to think about the color black, happiness, or the smell of a city again. There are no real twists and turns they are just slight curves well lite and plenty of signage to tell what's a head.
