- What did you like best about Cthulhu Armageddon? What did you like least?
- C.T.’s description is catching from the get go. The description of the Black Cathedral is something. The building feels old and almost alive, maybe something from the underworld. I like it!
Slowly we start to see that the world is now occupied with the great Old Ones once again. We see the land as it was destroyed, desert and strange, with deadly creatures that exist and roaming freely. There is a magic present in people they call ‘touched’. And we get to see a few that are Touched.
This book is good, but it didn’t seem to hold my attention like C.T.’s other novels I’ve listened to. I think because I’m not 100% sure what to expect in the world here. We know there are Old Ones but not much more than that. That there are different beings or creatures that now live on the earth too. All are not known to me, but it’s known to John Booth. It’s not that we are seeing them for the first time with John but as we’ve seen them time and time again, but they are unfamiliar to me. Although, this is an attraction for many people. Not knowing what’s coming around the next bend is something to keep them on their toes, and Captain John Booth could be your person with his adventure.
There was a section where we go back to learn with John Booth as to what happened to him in the block of time he doesn’t remember. I really like how C.T. smoothly brought us to the current moment. This transition felt extremely well done and thought out.
- Did Jeffrey Kafer do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
- Jeffery Kafer has returned to the microphone for C.T. in this new novel. He voices John Booth in a way that feels as though he’s John. But I didn’t feel as much in the additional characters from Jeffery. For me it felt good but just shy of more.
- Any additional comments?
- The world feels Post Apocalyptic in the way the land has fallen and man has grouped, and even with the new residents of the world. John Booth is like the American cowboy on a mission through the book.
