Romance novel cloaked as fantasy
Revisado: 04-28-25
I liked the premise and the story overall but it’s too explicit and there’s way too much rumination. That was truly tedious. It’s more romance novel than what I expect from fantasy literature.

Started well but can’t finish it
Revisado: 11-11-24
The relentless sarcasm gets on my nerves. Repeating how much he does at the age of 9 or 10 is not believable. The voicing of the narrator reinforces the tedium and I don’t care what happened anymore, or why.

When Mallon the Undying threatened the land years ago, the elves stopped him - and then disappeared. Now Mallon's followers seek to bring him back to finish what he started. Only the Keepers - storytellers, historians, and magic-wielders - are left to stand against them. Alaric, who betrayed everything he believed to save his wife - and still failed. Will, a storyteller who’s convinced his weak magic makes him useless. And Sini, a former slave girl with unimaginable power but no way to wield it.

Great story but too long and repetitive
Revisado: 10-24-24
This would have been wonderful as one book. I had to skip whole sections because it dragged so much. I’m guessing either the author was instructed to meet a quota, or the editor just failed to tighten it up.

What viciousness! I got as far as I could and there’s still many hours left. The detective has done it for me. The narrator has done his job but this character is so despicable I’m abandoning the whole thing.

Heart warming story
Revisado: 09-21-24
I rarely find stories that are so enjoyable. Historical fiction, sci-fi and fantasy are all entertaining in their own way but there’s something altogether more about novels written in this time period.

Historia
The history of philosophy has been a predictably tragic or comical succession of palliatives for human disquiet. Thinkers from Spinoza to Berdyaev have pursued the perennial questions of how to be happy, how to be good, how to be loved, and how to live in a world of change and loss. But perhaps we can learn more from cats - the animal that has most captured our imagination - than from the great thinkers of the world. In Feline Philosophy, the philosopher John Gray discovers in cats a way of living that is unburdened by anxiety and self-consciousness....

Philosophy that matters
Revisado: 09-07-24
I came for the cats and stayed for the philosophy. The concepts were not new to me but the spin is unique. Learning philosophy is complicated and filled with contradictions but applying one perspective helps cut through the murky parts. This book is both entertaining and enlightening and is well matched to the narrator.

Historia
Infused with magic, shadows and starlight, the powerful godblades were believed to be lost nearly half a millennia ago, when the Godswar ended. Now, however, one has been found by the unlikeliest of wielders: Sampson Gaard, a blind but ambitious prince with something to prove. The only question is whether he controls the blade or the blade him. With an insidious evil lurking in the shadows, the answer may very well determine the fate of all Kingfall.

Great world building
Revisado: 09-06-24
There are a lot of strong personalities in this story and many threads. They work together well, building a world that’s both cohesive and compelling. I’m looking forward to the next.

If you already know your dog is reactive you have advanced beyond this book. It might be useful for a beginner dog owner who is acquiring a dog already known to be reactive. I did not learn anything new

Well-developed characters, great story
Revisado: 08-15-24
I’ve listened to this series at least three times and I never tire of the characters or the narration. I return to it when I need something compelling to listen to and the only disappointment is that it ends too soon. The other related books I’ve read by Abercrombie have been good but not great - this series is the best.

Inspiring!
Revisado: 07-19-24
My Aussie mix rescue puppy was my first dog and the trainer I hired was too strict. When she became obviously afraid of him we quit. Sone months later I was out of town for two weeks and my husband spoiled her - all the training was forgotten and he was her new best friend. That was 9 years ago. With the insights from this book I have renewed hope I can retrain her, and maybe get him on board too.
