Too long or just too slow?

Revisado: 01-17-25

Drags on. Nearly DNF. Could not connect with the characters. The penultimate plot resolution was too little and too late.

The first book in an excellent series.

Revisado: 09-24-24

Original story that combines some very unique concepts and a well thought out look at humanity given a set of "What if's?" The characters are great and you can feel the combination of the two incredibly talented authors styles blending together harmoniously. I thoroughly enjoyed the first and second books and around the third felt like the story was losing it's way but I was very wrong. It's just setting up an even better story that all adds up to a fantastic and thoughtful ending.

Best in class

Revisado: 09-24-24

Fantastic. I loved the heroes and hated the bad guys. Great character development and story. The action scenes (there are a lot of them) were well written and easy to follow. By far, it's one of the best RPG-Lit stories I've listened to and would have loved another 10 hours of their adventures.

Never have I muttered "ugh" so many times.

Revisado: 09-24-24

This reads like you're playing a boring dungeon crawler with an annoying party you don't like who constantly complains and then makes excuses for each other. Might possibly be the best instruction book on being co-dependent ever written. Cringeworthy. I tried "picking" it back up three times and at a little over half way through, couldn't finish it due to the toxic nature of the characters relationship.

Needs a better ending.

Revisado: 05-21-18

Narration was decent. I loved the characters individual stories and the plot weavings. The science and how the characters deal with relativistic flight was good but the ending left me flat.

More!

Revisado: 11-24-17

Andy doesn't disappoint in being unique in his take on things. For those that tend to want to know more about the Lokis, Lex Luthors and Skeletors of the story, this is the book. My only complaint is that it wasn't long enough.

Filling in the blanks.

Revisado: 05-07-16

This does a good job of filling things in. if you've read everything else in the "Old man's war" universe, read this.

Love his other books. Couldn't get into this one.

Revisado: 04-07-16

Non-standard use of language in the beginning made it hard to keep up with the subtleties of what was going on combined with a very slow and excruciatingly long "start" left me just wanting this book finished. Don't let this be your first book by Stephenson.

Makes me wish I had known her growing up

Revisado: 02-17-12

Loved the book. I'm so glad Tina Fey read her own book. Who better to deliver Tina Fey's words than... Tina Fey. And they are truly fabulous words. She is so honest and funny and "human". I listened to this on a long drive in the car and when I stopped for fuel after three hours of hearing her read the stories of who she is and how she came to be where she is, I had the urge to ask Tina if she wanted anything from the snack shop.... It was as though we had been having a friendly (and extremely one sided) chat for the past few hours.

Easy going, funny, charming, engaging. It was all good.

If you're looking for 5 hours of Tina Fey doing stand-up, this isn't it. If instead, you're looking for a humorous romp through her life's high points and low points, moments of triumph and embarrassments, this will keep you entertained.
