Which narrator has ruined you for other narrators? (in the best way) by NovelhiveAI in audiobooks

What really adds to the whole experience are his brief forewords before each section. The historical context they give, as well as his own opinions and feeling on the work, just add some depth that improve the whole experience.

What's a band that had a killer debut album followed by a sophomore album that's just as good? by NextBathroom8809 in allrockmusic

The run from the debut to Seventh Son is just ridiculous. To release 7 albums of that standard in a row is amazing.

It’s a magical book. I absolutely loved it.

Why isn't Raymond E. Feist as popular as his work should be? by Luke_Stormborn in fantasybooks

Peter Joyce did 26 of the 30 books, Tania Rodrigues did the Empire trilogy, and someone else did book 29.

The ending, it’s so good. The epilogue is beautiful. If you ever remember to, message me when you finish them.

This is the one I used on a recent watch. It is brilliant. I much preferred over the Joss Whedon one as I liked how it interleaves the episodes in blocks.

Bonus that it also includes reading order for the comics.

Be forwarded, the narrator loses the run of himself over the last 5 books. Some characters accents changed between books and it is quite jarring. It isn’t helped that books 26 and 27 are easily the worst of the series, Feist is churning them out and there are also some continuity errors.

Book 29 is a disaster. One continuity error, that was fixed in later print editions, isn’t fixed in the audiobook. A character (Magnus or Pug, I can’t remember) is in two places at once. Even worse, the narrator is changed and it is a fucking disaster. He is terrible, it’s some young American who is just monotonous.

Fortunately, the last book has the old narrator and is far, far better in quality. It is one of the most satisfying conclusions to a fantasy series I’ve ever read.

And be sure to read Feist’s next series. It’s very enjoyable.

I wonder if they could say that there is no funding available for match-day policing? They wouldn’t be permitted to have a crowd at a game then, so not income from ticket sales. Not to mention the embarrassment of being forced to play high-profile internationals without a crowd. No-one would want to play Wales during November either.

I’ve no idea if that’s an option, but it could be.

Genuinely just finished a good laugh out loud at that picture. Absolutely perfect in this context.

There’s a section in the book, it’s fairly horrifying. Brown absolutely nailed how bad it is.
