À propos de cet audio
Martin and his friends discovered that their world is computer generated and that by altering the code, they could alter reality. They traveled back in time to Medieval England to live as wizards. Almost everything they've done since then has, in one way or another, blown up in their faces.
So of course they decide to make dragons. It does not go well.
As the wizards struggle to control their creations and protect innocent citizens, they try new things (most of which they don't enjoy), meet new people (most of who are angry at them), and fight epic battles (most of which they lose).
But their biggest challenge may be a young girl who knows that the wizards created the dragons and is determined to make them pay. On her side she has powerful allies, a magical artifact, and a faithful if not particularly helpful dog.
Fight and Flight is a rollicking tale of bravery, wonder, love, revenge, greed, discovery, deception, and animal husbandry.
©2017 Scott Meyer (P)2017 Audible, Inc.In this book we're well into the "wizards'" life in medieval England, so you'd think they'd have things down by now. Unfortunately, for them not for us, they don't. The dragons were a horrible idea, the way they tried to deal with it was a horrible idea, their relations with the locals have been horrible... you get the idea. A comedy of errors ensues.
But it's not that comedic. A lot of the old jokes aren't that funny anymore, the geek references were a bit too forced (and random), and the interpersonal interactions were ruined by splitting all the characters into small groups. I also wondered why all the set up from the last book (with Jimmy's escape) wasn't even referenced other than a passing comment by Phil in the explanation of why dragons were created.
The final incident with the locals had potential - lots of fun having the mad teenager taking on the wizards with the help of the Bastards street gang. It gave those characters a bit more depth and made for a new element of interaction with the locals, but then the ending really left everything hanging and feeling somewhat pointless.
The saving grace, as always, was the narrator. Luke Daniels is amazing. I loved his four Scotsmen routine (though one guy definitely sounded Irish) and his over the top accents are hilarious. Great as always!
Overall it was a good continuation of the series, but I probably won't listen to it again.
Good overall, but series starting to wane

Lots of dragons

However the writer manages to put all the pieces together near the end in a satisfying way. I'll admit it's a challenge to make an adventure be exciting when all the heroes are essentially immortal and omnipotent, but the authors manages mostly pretty well.
weakest of the series so far
