Upheaval

Revenge of the Sorcerer King, Book 3

By: Matthew Peed

Narrated by: Romy Nordlinger

A month has passed since Oberon and Alessa defeated the Expedition forces sent against them by the Lordships. Their power has grown to the extent that the desert can provide. Ever frustrated by the level system of the world, he decides it's time to take a bigger piece of the pie. Marshaling his new forces, he heads into the continent. Mayhem is marching; may the gods have pity on anyone standing in his way.

I enjoy the book

I enjoyed the book it was well written as usual of Matthew peed the narrative change was a bit jarring I guess but it was fine

different narrator

like the book and the narrator is understandable but her voice isn't as clear and doesn't drawn me in as good as the first 2 in the series

Feel bad for the author, VA killing the series

i paid for this and I'm going to finish it. I've never returned a book before and I'll not start now.
in short.
mispronounciations and little to no change in characters voices make it very very hard to listen to.
i genuinely feel bad for the author because this started as such an excellent series and i was about to pre-order the next book as i simply couldn't wait but seeing that it's the same VA as this book there's no way.
i hope there was a good reason for changing narrators because of it was simply to save money on production then that decision will certainly have the opposite effect.

i could forgive a bad narrator and often do but for the love of reading and stories take 5 min of your time and listen to a portion of the previous book or books, or would've taken all of 30 seconds or less to learn how to say the MC name. such lackluster effort made that i simply can't feel bad for speaking negatively of the narrator. if they had at least made the minimum effort.

if you've read this whole review and are determined to finish the book as i am then all i can advise is to lower the bass, turn up the treble and grit your teeth. 😓

I enjoy the series, but...

I enjoy this series, but it really throws me off when the Oberon's name comes up. The voice actor never says it right. Also the range of voices for the characters is, well, kinda lacking. Other than that, great story.

New Narrator

I couldn’t get that far with the audio book. The new narrator does not sound bad but mispronounced words and the change from a really good Narrator made it unbearable for me. Just going to read it on kindle.
