Amazing book series!

This is an amazing book series that will take you on an amazing adventure from the first chapter of the first book to the last chapter of the last book!

Well written and entertaining but disappointed

It was a good series but after events in the last chapters of the final book, I became disappointed and upset, so much so that I couldn't enjoy it anymore and didn't care; I even started to dislike the main character.

**********SPOILERS********
Ever get into a story and suddenly realize that the 'hero - good guy' you have been rooting for the whole time is not only flawed, but responsible for many of the problems. They are like a fireman who sets fires then 'saves the day' by putting them out. They are the cause of the heartache with their stupidity, piss poor decisions, and selfish personal motivations. That is essentially the main character in a nutshell but you don't really realize it until more than halfway through the last book when her tragic decision based on her own bias and selfishness caused a horrible death of a less than perfect character that did the wrong things for the right reasons. Then that death is just glossed over and ignored while the story goes on to talk about her happy ending that because of her actions, I couldn't really care about. I actually found myself despising her and couldn't help thinking she didn't deserve it as I held out hope that wrong would be righted. To each his own, but I couldn't forgive her or forget what she did.

Good read

Has a lot of similarities to the Dresden files but that is not a bad thing.

Loved the depth of the story world

I loved the depth of the story world with the various characters and their interactions. Very rich in details and in imagination. It draws a reader or even a listener deeply in. I also loved the performance — especially the way the vocalist portrayed the side characters. All in for goblins and orcs — it may come off unattractive at first, but then it develops the character in a way that makes them easily identifiable without having to say “said” over and over again every time a conversation switches speakers — allowing the storyline to flow cleanly. The only drawback I experienced was the speed of the adventure as it grated on my own mental health weakness — the strong woman heroine is constantly lacking sleep and completely exhausted and continuing to push through… running from epic issue to issue … as if exhaustion is a badge of honor & she is the fairy godmother of the entire story world; responsible for saving all good. I guess that is the point of an epic fantasy adventure — all or nothing, but I swear I felt all bedraggled and exhausted with her too. The author should be commended for being able to bring a reader in that deeply… even if the emotional bleed over isn’t one that is wanted by me due to my own triggers.

It’s good y’all - I want to listen for a second time, to go back and capture any missed details. I’m hesitating to keep myself from ratcheting up my own workaholic mental weaknesses though.

Riveting story

it was very entertaining and I couldn't stop listening. I loved learning the Latin curse words.

Interm review

Circumstances right now prevent me from writing an extensive review. I will update my review as soon as I am able.

Complicated nonsensical story

She reels from one disaster to another with no connection except her total incompetence. I got the audible narration and the narration is monotonal but oddly emphatic, very hard to listen to.

No way.

The heroine is not too smart and way too emotional... i cant believe she is still alive she is too scatter brained to survive the world the author built. The more you listen the dumber you feel for listening... awful book with a very stupid character.

DNF - one of those too stupid to live books.

The heroine is just too scattered brain for my taste, just not the type of story I enjoy. In the world these writers created, there's no way the MC would have survived to adulthood. The story has most of her woes coming from her mishandling of things but I don't think it's ever pointed out to her - it's just part of the story. There's plenty of action because of it and in a Lucille Ball kinda way she survives everything. Oh, how many times can you fit the word "parkour" in a book? You'll find out if you give this series a listen.

I tried and I just Cant

I tried to finished this story compilation, I really did, but I just cant. I'm an author, and I've listened to tons of books like this one for research. I've found as good as Dresden Files, and the worst of the bunch the I won't name out of respect. But this is just bad. The writing is simplistic and chopy. It comes across like so much of a Merry Sue that I want to drop it every few lines. The character protrail is simplistic and honestly comes across as totally racist. All the orcs have the same thug profile. All the goblins are lieing scum suckers. All elves are pompous asses. The "Blood Magic" is so damned edge-lord that it hurts while totally down cutting the cost of the magic, and thats coming from someone who's MC in my series litterally spills his own blood to cast magic. The writing is such a blaitent knockoff of other series I know that I cringe at the plot at least once or twice a chapter. It's clear that the writer did ZERO research into anything that she has written and I'm only part way through book three. I won't call myself a good author, but I'd like to think that I can spot bad writing when I read it. I really do hate to put the writer down like this, because I've written plenty of total-trash-texts, but I honestly have no idea how this got published.
