About this listen

Eric is a physicist, an angel vivisectionist, and an architect of the future.

He's also an accidental time traveler, stuck in the past and trying to re-create his own future.

Now he's got to save the world for a better tomorrow, but not like everyone does, in general, every day. Oh, no. He has to make a better tomorrow that looks exactly the way he remembers it, or there may be no yesterday, no today, and no Eric!

There is a reason he hates time travel, and it has nothing to do with physics.

Nightlord: Penumbra is the eighth book in the Nightlord series.

Patience! Book starts slow, gets way better!

Early review: I am having trouble finishing this, it is just so tedious to listen to (despite Sean Runnette's always-excellent performance). and almost nothing happens for hours of listening at a time. Normally I enjoy when Garon Whited gets all technical about the workings of magic in his world (I am a computer programmer so I really love how he "programs" his spells), but I cannot get interested in trying to create a Sun for the world that just goes on and on. There is very minimal character interaction or development, just our favorite Night Lord working on his "honey do" list of magical chores. I am 10 hours into a 44-hour experience and hope I can make it! I went and read a bunch of other reviews to see if maybe it gets better if I wait it out, but all the reviews seem to agree with my assessment.

Updated review: the book does get more enjoyable once Eric start populating the defrosted planet and we leave the whole "create a sun" storyline behind. I'm 3/4 of the way through it, and enough interesting stuff is now happening that I can't wait to finish it to see what happens. I'm glad I stuck it out rather than quitting and returning it!

Slow, but important!

This wasn’t the most action packed part of the series, but it was all necessary. There are times when a character isn’t going to be constantly involved in action packed battles with Michael Bay level explosions. This book is all about setting up the closing of the loop.

It is still a great story!

It started slow but kept getting better

A great cliff-hanger of an ending. Can’t wait for the next installment. Also a great value for your money at 40 hours.

Book 8 and I'm still craving more

I love the writing style, the narration and the overall adventure that is in this literature. (spoiler) I have to say that this book was like every day in the life of...without the big bad to conquer. It's a nice pace for where we are in the series, so long as book 9 comes at us with more story through-line.

I'm glad to have found this series as I find the critical thinking skills and the methodology used by the character to be soothing and engaging.

Eric the Sommelier

Let me start by saying I love this series, but... The MC Eric is a hero I can get behind and enjoy his story. His intelligent, quirky, mischievous nature made all the previous books hard to put down. His change in this book was painful to deal with. During a banquet for ten thousand wine enthusiasts, he wined more than a French sommelier. At some point, he asked why he was complaining. It was like he knew what I asked in every chapter. Bring Eric back
