Fantasy

Review from Bad Luck Charlie →

A whole galaxy run by magic spells? Spacecraft powered by slave wizards? Will only appeal to those that like their SF and Fantasy mixed together (even then it’s campy). Pick a lane.

Great concept. Horrible execution.

Review from Bad Luck Charlie →

TLDR: its a super interesting concept but the execution renders this in my humble opinion only good for ages 10-14 maybe. I managed to force my way through a few of the books in this series, but ultimately I decided to return them and spend my credits elsewhere. The narrator’s almost monotone and lack of..

surprisingly good

Review from Bad Luck Charlie →

I was expecting… well not much… an author I had never read with a unusual combo. I found I could not stop listening. I could say a lot more about it but I don’t want to waste time as I have already downloaded the next in the series. READ IT!!!

Not worth the time

Review from Bad Luck Charlie →

There are so many loose ends and plot points that don’t make sense. I wanted to like these books,. I like sci-fi and fantasy. I listened to the first three books, the story is interesting enough, but the execution is not good. The main character is supposed to be intelligent, but constantly drives the plot..

Not thrilled with the setting

Review from Dragon King Charlie →

I really like this series, but honestly wasn’t too happy with the setting of this book. I don’t know what it is, exactly, as I really like the characters, but I think its was the shift from sci fi fantasy to basically straight fantasy, complete with castles and knights and evil kings. I still enjoyed..

The clear delineation between science and magic is a good change of pace, its not just ‘other science we don’t understand’ but is actually its own discrete thing. The performance was good, too. the characters were..

great read

Review from The Angel of Meridian →

I very much enjoyed the book. The story was great, i didn’t want to put it down. the story keeps you wondering. very well written and research. look forward to reading more books from Justin Hyde

fun beginning to a new series

Review from Bad Luck Charlie →

This is a fun and interesting new series that I am looking forward to following. The protagonist is fun and believable, the action fast enough to keep you interested but he takes some time to think. Moral questions are inter-spaced but don’t get in the way.

Description was misleading

Review from Bad Luck Charlie →

I purchased this book because based on the description provided, I expected it to be a light, somewhat humorous science fiction tale. IT WAS NOT. While the story is not dark, it is very violent and there is very little humor. That being said, it is a good story and well narrated. The author created..
