Excellent Sequel

The sequel to Mutineer's Moon has so much to offer! Continued plots and universe building as one expects from Weber's writing. I truly enjoy this particular reality he's crafting and eagerly await more books in the Dahak series!

Great!

Loved it! 3rd book in series not the best one but still great! yea! yea!

Great Adventure and excellent series.

The recording is missing chapter 28 which is important to the story. Need to fix it.

Best of the series yet

The first book was, well, rough. I stuck through it though and listened to book 2. Better, but still a little rough around the edges. Book 3 now, this one is the best of the series and left me wishing for the story to continue. Bravo.

Dahak

Excellent story. Character development was thorough. David Weber never disappoints. Narration was superb. Will continue to read Weber's work.

Abridged?

Someone else mentioned this was an abridged version, so my perception may be skewed by noticing that before reading, but it does seem like a sizeable battle that was lead up to, and then constantly referred to, is just.. missing. It could be that the author left the battle itself out and just let the lead up and references to it fill in the blanks, but that seems like it would be an odd choice. Subsequently, the entire crescendo of that storyline also seems to be either absent or just another odd choice to build up for half the book only to resolve abruptly. Like.. super abruptly. Half a paragraph at most. Like, imagine going through the Lord of the Rings series and right before the final, decide-all battle it just cut to one of the characters sitting at home a year or 2 older and his buddy walked in and says "Glad that stuff all worked out a year or 2 ago! The end." Honestly, I'm probably going to have to pick up the print version just to find out what the deal is.

Oh, and the same narrator from the first 2 books still hasn't figured out how to properly.. I don't know.. read punctuation? Judge tempo?.. something.

All I know is that there is a similar length, waaaay too long pause

every 3-4 words that would typically

convey a new speaker/paragraph/chapter/idea, but it happens

continuously.

This may not be sooo bad, except that

since the pauses are so long and similar, the entire book makes you pay

incredibly close attention to insure the action is properly being followed nearly

word by word rather than any type of natural flow.

Not abridged chapter 27 is there.

If you read through the reviews you’ll see some people saying this is an abridged version of the book or clarifying that it is missing a chapter. That issue has been resolved and the entire book is now there.


As usual David Weber gets five stars for plot, characterization the whole 9 yards and so far the readers for the series are really good.

Excellent addition to the series

Mr Weber's ability to spin a story that keeps you engaged through the entire tale is spot on. Great Sci Fi. Having Jonathan Ross as the narrator just made it that much more enjoyable.

okay, it's a great story, but come on. David Weber

although the books are written 20 years ago, they are a lot of fun. so my beef is not with the books. it's with the author.

your audio listners who have invested hundreds and hundreds of dollars in the Safehold series only to find that it had been trotted out pretty much intact from a three book trilogy that you can't even finish. get a grip and finish safehold

Great series

Loved this one the dual story line was done very well
Is there a sequel
