About this listen

The eighth novel of the internationally acclaimed Chaos Seeds saga.

A mesmerizing tale reminiscent of the brutality of Goblin Slayer and the majesty of Game of Thrones.

Audible's Customer Favorite of the Year!

Number one audiobook 2017.

Welcome my friends!

Welcome...to “The Land"!

The battle of the dead was won, but at a great cost. Sion, leader of the Mist Village, was left with only pain and regret as Richter was claimed by the abyss.

What no one but the abandoned chaos seed knows is that he narrowly avoided the curse of the lich Singh, a curse that still hangs above his head. Now, surrounded by miles of darkness and tons of crushing rock, Richter has to find his way back into the light.

The only problem is that this monster of a man is being pursued by monsters, a demon, and his own foolish choices. Faced with all the dangers of the deep dark, what will Richter say when the buried horrors of The Land come a calling and asked if he's paid his dues?

Well he'll look right back, stare that horror in the eye, and say, "Yes sir, the check is in the mail!"

Welcome back my friends! Welcome back...to The Land!

Somewhat Lacking

As usual Nick Podhel delivered a wonderful performance. If I had have known how this story would play out however I would likely have waited until the next book was available before starting this one. While I cannot deny the story helped to develop the land's mechanics it simply didn't deliver the same adventure I've appreciated in Aleron's other narratives. Perhaps I had unreal expectations from the long wait between books but it felt like a build up to the main story more than a story in itself. When it got to the end I found myself surprised. It was a long build up with no climax. I know Aleron is planning on coming out with the next book in October so hopefully the meat of the story will be found there. He is a talented writer so I'm hoping for the best.

Interesting but underwelming

To say I was excited to listen to the 8th installement of The Land would be an understatement. I don’t know if it’s because Aleron Kong set the bar so high with the other 7 books, but this latest performance was underwelming to me. It felt more like a chapter then a complete rendering. The overall plot line BARELY advanced... I am still a Fan... I was just looking forward for more.

This one was a bit anti climactic.

I like this series and will continue to but wish more had happened this book.

Disappointing

I love the Land but this book is such a letdown, it’s so disappointing that I skip parts wen I re-listen to it. He forgets that he’s got the ice dagger spell and instead used a Bone club. I’ve noticed that he’s a total Moron here and there and forgets to think and use his head and won’t ask for help and just assumes that it will work out.

Not as good as the rest of the series.

Barely anything happens in this installment. Also, the ending blows chunks. It's like he took the most boring fight and gave up after and dropped his pen... I've had enough, send money. Next book better be long and have lots of story or I'm done with the series. Nick phodel's narration saved the experience. If he ever loses Nick this is over...

The 16hr Anime Filler Ark No One Wanted 😑

1st, I love this series and the over descriptive details that makes the series stand out and give a real feeling of the world!!

BUT!!!
This book felt like a Story Filler Ark FEVER DREAM!!
ESPECIALLY the Hour+ description of the diarrhea from the 7 circles of hell😮‍💨
Then its about Cave This, Tunnel that, and centipede monsters from hell, then ull have the story of the whole book, except for maybe the last 15%

Big Disappointment, hopefully when the next book comes around we'll all forget a out this Filler Ark 😑

Excellent book, contents lacking.

I love this series, but this book struggles for all the reasons people have already stated. The narrator is amazing as always but the book just didn’t scratch that itch I had and hoped for. I don’t usually write reviews after books, but I felt I needed to, I love the author and I’m sure there is good reasons it turned out this way! I will continue to support you. I simply wanted to say if a book has to stay in writing longer as to avoid staying in the same phase of a story I’m fine with that!

Tough one

I really like the land but man this book was tough to get through. Like 40-50% of the book is stat increases mostly from the previous books consequences. Chapter 37 is just why the hell does this exist. It just felt like little story progression happened, such a large part of book was stats and man that chapter 37 was rough. If this book was maybe a bit longer with more story maybe I would be less chapped but I can’t give the story a good rating for this book sadly.
