Publisher's summary

Charlie had all the luck. Unfortunately, it wasn’t the good kind.

Sucked through a wormhole, Charlie's spaceship crash landed on a distant world, yet somehow he survived. But survival was about to get a lot harder as he found himself not just stranded on a new planet, but in another galaxy entirely. One ruled not by the laws of technology, but by magic. A realm of space pirates, deadly assassins, alien gladiators, and even dragons. For the spaceman from Earth, it was enough to make his head spin.
And that was only the beginning.

Welcome to the Charlieverse.

Interesting Start to a Curious Concept

While it has been noted by many other readers, the first book does take some time to introduce and develop the main concept of the series: there is another galaxy that runs on magic versus technology and the main character has to deal with that issue, being a pragmatic engineer. While it might not be executed in a an extremely efficient manner at first and the concept is drip-fed to the reader, it does begin to pick up in books two and three.

Concepts and characters are well thought out and developed and the world building (or galaxy-building in this case) is very interesting to imagine a realm run by magic versus technology. Scott does a good job of building tension and intrigue once the characters have been established and there’s more to the story than first meets the eye, but it can take a bit for the story to hook readers.

I look forward to the next trilogy and eventually see where this series goes as there’s some interesting threads being pulled here.

non stop cycle of someone's life sucking

Several hours in and the protagonist has yet to be interesting. It's like a sci version of a office workers miserable life. Main character has been knocked unconscious about two dozen times by people just saying words. If you are looking for a hero, skip this one.

Great story that takes you all over

I enjoyed the complexity of the story. Bouncing all over. Don’t mind the reviewer talking about ‘woke’. They probably couldn’t even define what it means.

Honestly an enjoyable series!

depressing and fun

You'd think a book can't be both depressing and fun, but it's all about where in the book you read. The first book is dead boring from the beginning until most of the way through. It then picks up a bit of fun. the next two books are less boring, but the series is largely modeled the same way as the Clockwork Chimera, which it intersects. It is all, everyone dies, everyone loses, and everyone is happy in vain; then the story gradually becomes less and less depressing until it ends happily. The problem is the story avoids being predictable by being too obviously tweaked to fit this pattern for a long, long setup, ending with success. In other words, it seems like a set of books, but the story is more like each series is it's own single book, released in volumes of chapters that are completely individually unsatisfying, unless you read the last one. Much of the imagination is great and this writer is much better than a few fantasy and science fiction writers I have read who sacrifice reason for short bouts of drama more extremely.

don't expect foresight

the book is good, the story and setting are very fun. the Mc however left me feeling frustrated with his lack of foresight and planning to almost every danger he encounters.

A very entertaining trip

I liked too much about this collection to write it all down. If you like to read about time travel, magic, and battles all tumbled together with wonderfully built characters? Then stop reading reviews and start this book. It’s great!!
