Resumen del Editor

Bahzell Bahnakson of the Horse Stealer hradani had never wanted to be the champion of the War God. Unfortunately, the War God had insisted. Which was how he had found himself among hostile strangers in the Empire of the Axe - except that that was only the least of his problems.

For a start, there was the Order of Tomanak, who were horrified that their deity had chosen a hradani as champion, and were resolved to rectify the matter in a most unpleasant fashion. And if he survived that, he had to get home somehow, in spite of the enemies determined to stop him, to face the Dark God who had sworn to destroy all hradani. But one thing Bahzell had learned: a champion of the War God Tomanak does what needs to be done. And those who got in his way had better watch out.

One of the best sword and sorcery tales around.

David Weber is one of my absolute favorite authors and this series is an example why.

This is a great story made truly outstanding by the fantastic narration by Nick Sullivan. Mr. Sullivan goes beyond mere narration into voice acting, going so far as to use different geographical accents for characters from different parts of the story's world. This extra touch makes the story come to life for me.

Fun story

Enjoyable

Not too complicated, characters well-developed, action, some adventure, underlying theme not over stated. I am enjoying the series.

Excellent Fun Fantasy

Would you listen to The War God's Own again? Why?

It was very fun and the story moved fast.

The sense of scope and history to the world.

He did a good job on the main character's voice and inflection.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes

Fantastic!

It kept me spellbound the whole way through! I highly recommend the series! I have already gotten the next one 😊

# 2 Good and I want more.

I'm a teacher, and it's my policy to NOT give any 100%s for work done by anyone especially me. ( I figure there's always room for improvement.) If you want to know more about what I think, check out the review for War Maids Choice. Thank you.

More Character Development than Action

This book did not have near as much action in it as the first one but was still a good read if you are invested in the series. You learn more about the different races, their history and how it affects the interaction of the races that was left a little lacking from the first novel.

Nick Sullivan's narration, as the first, was top notch.

Really enjoyable storyline

I'm getting into this series and finding the books very enjoyable. Good plot. Nice mix of adventure, action and humor. Good character development. Looking forward to where the next books take me.

One of my favorites

David Weber is one of the sci fi greats, but I also really enjoy his fantasy books too. Great characters and story and the narrator does a really good job too!

Paladin in action

Once I started the first book, I ended up getting the second immediately, and I am planning on getting the third book soon. Like this first book it is also a fast paced book.

It is very enjoyable audio book that style of narration matches with the story very well, and over all it is a lot of fun to listen to this book.

Our barbarian Paladin is introduced officially to the rest of its deity's order, and things become interesting. Book has a very good narrative about the prejudices and bigotry though sometimes it is repetitive.

Couple of characters introduced in book are amusing and sense of humor does work within this book as well. It is pretty much a continuation of first book without any breaks and I recommend this book as well that these books are solid 4 star books. Very enjoyable.

Just like Book 1

Where does The War God's Own rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is a fast pace light read. The narrator is one of the best I have heard.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

At times I found listening to some aspect of the different ways each group of peoples behaved in this word to be tedious . I understand the author was creating a whole world but at times the story got bogged down in description.
