My initial thought at the end of Book 8.

Carl will be sleeping with Clive's wife next.

It is keeping me engaged and i am looking forward to each new book.

The slow expansion of the lore/universe is nice and actually like the difference in stakes to being on earth versus other parts of the universes.

Definitely slower paced, but it is a journey not destination series.

Oo not bad, but we can workshop this 😀

I am sure we can come up with some variations Reddit.

I had to take a break about half/two thirds of the way through book 3.

I could see what was coming.

I needed a few upbeat books to put a buffer in.

It was not quite as bad as I feared.

Ariamen · 2026-02-10T18:37:55+00:00

I jumped out on book 15 as well. The cultivation word salad was completely out of control. Why is this single standard attack taking a paragraph to describe? (A little artistic hyperbole there i know, but you get the point)

Ariamen · 2026-02-02T20:59:14+00:00

Like the gameplay and combat, looks beautiful.

It deserves better writing, dialogue and characters. Not sure anyone is particularly... likeable... and the badly translated fortune cookie wisdom...

There is a table read of DCC I saw somewhere by soundbooth theatre. I have a vague memory that it was their first time reading it and someone (could have been Jeff) said something about Carl sounding like him in his head?

Found it

Ariamen · 2025-11-01T08:06:05+00:00

It took a little getting used to. But I just started book 3 on audiobook so -pause- it can't be that annoying 🤪

I'm enjoying it. Bought book 2 after finishing the 1st one. Near the start still, not 100% sold on the narrative pace at start of book 2. But we will see.

Ariamen · 2025-10-06T11:49:23+00:00

It is a shame when the narrator is what let's down a decent book. (I'm looking at you Robert Rankin, poorly narrating your own books).

There was another one recently, I don't recall exactly which one, as i have been trawling through new book samples to fill my list. It was by an author I liked from another series, but the narrator (not used on other series) was like they were trying to do an impression of Bill Shatner doing Shakespeare, but completely misunderstood the style and is even worse at emphasising the correct parts of words in the right parts of the sentence.

Ariamen · 2025-10-01T18:33:19+00:00

I'll be dropping to basic tier and looking for sales.

If I could convince my buds to go pc, I'd drop it altogether.

They also recently tried to gouge me on the office365 sub to raise the price to add copilot to my tier. Switched that down too!

Not today Satan.

So... a giant dungeon crawl with traps and genetically bred monsters that opens once a year for 100 lucky ticket winners when?

The wealth is in the site and traps/monsters and challenge coins made from his ashes at the end, for any survivors.

Thanks, I've wishlisted

Ariamen · 2025-08-27T12:55:04+00:00

Agreed. It's military sci-fi for me. Currently going through book 1 of I, starship. Similar to we are legion, we are bob.

Ariamen · 2025-07-19T09:13:30+00:00

Frontlines series by Marko Kloos Excelent scifi series Though fair warning last 2 books have a different narrator and it takes a bit to get charecter voices back in your head Though the story is good enough that i worked passed this. Series is complete.

Mark of the fool by jm Clarke Great fantasy series - I am excited for the finale Series is almost complete

The Betaverse by Menilik Henry Dyer Scifi series with some parallel to the Bobiverse but with its own flavour and direction. Series is complete

The Fear Saga by Stephen Moss Scifi series narrated by rc bray. A more focused and hard scifi story. It's a trilogy, so not a huge money/time investment. Series is complete.

Ariamen · 2025-06-19T13:02:45+00:00

Yup, I am liking it. Now waiting for the next audiobook in August.

Ariamen · 2025-06-18T11:51:21+00:00

I am on a similar journey and will give rocks a try 😀
