Favorite, it's a must read

The story, the world, the freshness of the ideas were amazing, but the character development was unrivalled

Perfect writing

The characters, plot and world are so perfectly knit together that you can't progress one without progressing the others. The story flows well and keeps you engaged at all times.

The narrator was amazing, voicing characters, adding pauses, coughs, stutters ...where needed, making the experience very immersive.

Masterful!

I absolutely loved this book. Arlan's evolution hit home. The magic system is very unique. The characters were very human. Peter Brett this is my first book of yours I've read, and I must say I consider you one of my favorite authors now. The voice actor who narrated the book was excellent. Keep em coming! On to the Desert Spear! #Audible1

why do writers hate ppl so much

Great job by the narrator and an awesome story if you stick thru to the end. But I cant for the life of me understand why some writers start the first books with hours of negativity and the mcs catering to the worst examples of humanity. if they would only stand up for themselves I'd understand but just taking the abuse is a terrible way to gain respect for your characters. grit my teeth countless times thru the first 5 chapters. I wanted lisha to smack her mom so much I think I died alittle inside when it never happened.

Fell in love with the characters

I’ve listened to this book twice. The characters are so memorable and the world he created is incredible. The narrator is world class. Cannot recommend this book or series enough.

Great Series

Great series like the title says. Great narration.


I am however pissed off that Audible is constantly changing the cover art of books post-purchase. Stop doing that, assholes.

As expected.

There's a bard, a powerful warrior-monk and a toolish girl healer.

Neat wards tho. That's a refreshing take on magic. The various civilizations are a little too close to real-world civs for my taste, mind you, but still. They are well done. Arlin's adoption of the lone wanderer trope after he gets the means to fight the corelings was a bit disappointing, but well anchored in the story nevertheless.

I'll keep listening.
