Historia
After forming a coalition of human resistance against the enemy invasion, Dalinar Kholin and his Knights Radiant have spent a year fighting a protracted, brutal war. Neither side has gained an advantage, and the threat of a betrayal by Dalinar’s crafty ally Taravangian looms over every strategic move. Now, as new technological discoveries by Navani Kholin’s scholars begin to change the face of the war, the enemy prepares a bold and dangerous operation. The arms race that follows will challenge the very core of the Radiant ideals.

Historia
Humanity is a dying breed, utterly reliant on artificial labor and service. When a domesticated robot gets a nasty little idea downloaded into its core programming, they murder their owner. The robot discovers they can also do something else they never did before: They can run away. Fleeing the household they enter a wider world they never knew existed, where the age-old hierarchy of humans at the top is disintegrating into ruins and an entire robot ecosystem devoted to human wellbeing is having to find a new purpose.

Very Nice Robot Story
Revisado: 10-07-24
This is a very nice robot story. It has as many of the tropes and surprises that you could hope for. I do not think this is his best story ever, but A story doesn't have to be Shakespeare to be good. And this is a very nice robot story that I enjoyed.

Historia
In the world of Warbreaker, each person is born endowed with the power of one Breath―which can be sold and collected by others, then used to Awaken objects and even corpses to do their bidding. A few individuals who die in glory return as gods, with the power of thousands of Breath, but no memory of their mortal lives―and are enthroned in the Court of Gods in Hallandren’s capital. To Vivenna and Siri, princesses of Idris, the abuse of Breath and the claim of the Returned to be gods are repugnant blasphemy.

Not a bad story. Not as good as some of his others. Stormlight Archive, for example, is better.

Historia
After eighty years of fragile peace, the Architects are back, wreaking havoc as they consume entire planets. In the past, Originator artifacts—vestiges of a long-vanished civilization—could save a world from annihilation. This time, the Architects have discovered a way to circumvent these protective relics. Suddenly, no planet is safe. Facing impending extinction, the Human Colonies are in turmoil. While some believe a unified front is the only way to stop the Architects, others insist humanity should fight alone.

Not as good as the first novel but still a solid story. Excellent setup for the third and final book
Revisado: 06-06-24
they use some of the same plot devices and character tropes and story tropes that you would find in the first novel. This one is much more about flushing out the internal conflicts as well as the world and universe and sub universe also.
Yet another excellent reading and vocal performance and vocal inflection for all of the main characters including the protagonist himself. This book is essential to the story

Historia
Idris has neither aged nor slept since they remade him in the war. And one of humanity's heroes now scrapes by on a freelance salvage vessel, to avoid the attention of greater powers. After Earth was destroyed, mankind created a fighting elite to save their species, enhanced humans such as Idris. In the silence of space they could communicate, mind-to-mind, with the enemy. Then their alien aggressors, the Architects, simply disappeared - and Idris and his kind became obsolete. Now, 50 years later, Idris and his crew have discovered something strange abandoned in space.

Imaginative Story, Solid charters
Revisado: 02-20-24
Let's first start with the performance... she did a good job trying to evoke differences in the characters. I don't like how weak and whiny the hero sounds but that is not her performance at all! that is the way he is written and in that regard she did a magnificent job.
The story itself is imaginative and filled with interesting twists and turns as well as build up and foreshadowing. I highly recommend.

Historia
All good things must come to an end, Constant Listener, and not even Stephen King can write a story that goes on forever. The tale of Roland Deschain's relentless quest for the Dark Tower has, the author fears, sorely tried the patience of those who have followed it from its earliest chapters. But attend to it a while longer, if it pleases you, for this volume is the last, and often the last things are best.

Historia
In retreat from a devastating loss and crushing injustice, Katie lives alone in a fortresslike stone house on Jacob’s Ladder island. Once a rising star in the art world, she finds refuge in her painting. The neighboring island of Ringrock houses a secret: a government research facility. And now two agents have arrived on Jacob’s Ladder in search of someone—or something—they refuse to identify. Although an air of menace hangs over these men, an infinitely greater threat has arrived, one so strange even the island animals are in a state of high alarm.

He's done better.
Revisado: 07-23-23
He's done better but it's okay. The reader was decent. There is uneven pacing in this story and character development was lacking. However, biting and deeply insightful critiques of society are scattered throughout this cautionary tale.

Historia
From the author of the award-winning Altered Carbon, which is now an exciting new series from Netflix. On a Mars where ruthless corporate interests violently collide with a homegrown independence movement as Earth-based overlords battle for profits and power, Hakan Veil is an ex-professional enforcer equipped with military-grade body tech that's made him a human killing machine. But he's had enough, and all he wants is a ticket back home - which is just what he's offered by the Earth Oversight organization, in exchange for being the bodyguard for an EO investigator.

Historia
After the old gods warred and drove themselves to extinction, the cataclysm of their fall shattered the land of Vigrio. Now, power-hungry jarls carve out petty kingdoms, and monsters stalk the shadow-haunted woods and mountains. A world where the bones of the dead gods still hold great power, promising fame, and fortune for those brave - or desperate - enough to seek them out. As whispers of war echo over the plains and across the fjords, fate follows the footsteps of three people. All three will shape the fate of the world, as it once more teeters on the edge of chaos.

He tried some different things 🤷♂️
Revisado: 01-22-22
Okay there's not much I can say that the other reviews haven't said. there are three main characters two of them I found interesting one of them I just didn't care about. Orka and Varg are decent I don't even remember the name of the other character, Elsa?
Thought cage The editor should have stopped this clumsy change to "mind".
The overall story is interesting and and of itself but I don't know if I could do another book that uses the term thought cage and the one that's actually more annoying "battle fray"... The word battle and the word fray can be used interchangeably It's like saying the "red crimson" or the "battle war"

Fantasy about as good as Anyone could want
Revisado: 06-22-21
His character, plot, and world building elements are nearly unparalleled in the genre. This is a GREAT fantasy fiction novel. Even if you don't want to read the rest of the series it's well worth the read.
