Twinborn Chronicles: War of 3 Worlds

Gt ready for a crazy ride

War of 3 Worlds is a trilogy that runs close to 45 hours of listening time, so you are getting your money's worth to start off with, and you will find it to be well worth the time that yu put into it. I will start out warning you that this is a sprawling read. It covers three different worlds, and has a massive cast of characters that would make George R.R. Martin proud. It is filled with all kinds of goodies including tinkerers (made me think of the gnomes in Dragonlance, but withot all the DOOF!), steampunk, warriors, worlds, and more. It seems that this is a collection of books 4-7, so I will now be looking for books 1-3!!

Ok, let the praise begin. Morin has a nice style that keeps your attention, believe me, the dialogue is real, the characters utterly believable, and the plot is perfectly paced. You never have a question as to what is going on or who is speaking, and let me tell you the twists and turns are so abundant you will wnt some dramamine on hand. There is a lot of stuff you will not see coming, and then say you should have. I also appreciate a writer who isn't afraid of a little blood and gore. That being said, some indelicate types might find it a little off-putting. Still, I loved it.

Mikael Naramore brings some Babe Ruth level vocal talant to the team, he is easy to listen to, and in a book with a massive cast of characters he brings each one to life. The man can set a mood with just a slight shift in his voice, and can make the action go harder and faster with a shift in inflection. Bravo!

This is a great set of books, and it makes me eager to see how the whole thing started.

Get it, read it, love it.

good read but not as good as the first three...

I like the series over all just wanna make that point. But the characters in this portion of the series were much less likeable and the book seemed all over the map...

Not as good as the black ocean series.

I loved the the black ocean series and assumed since this series had the same author and narrator, I would enjoy this enough to finish it. The narrator used too many of the same voices from the mobius, which is understandable but I could not keep from mixing them up.

I got to half way into the 2nd book and was so bored I stopped. I didn't like the father and daughter "main characters" from ether world and so I stopped caring what happened to them. one character gets injured and I honestly did not care at all. I think they are suppose to be "grey area" good guys but are not done well and come off as just annoying jerks.

I will likely finish it one day but I need to cleanse my palette before attempting.

All over the place

I got this compilation cheap but couldn't finish it because it felt like several writers worked on it and they each had different characters they loved. Plus the characters invented devices or had magic available that could have been used in much more intelligent ways, so it was difficult to like characters who failed to make good decisions. The editor should be strung up for this plot being given a green light too.

doesn't compare to awakening

I couldn't get into it after awakening. I expected the same surviving characters to have a role in this continuation, and was sorely disappointed. those surviving characters had so much potential, and none was shown or developed in this series, though I couldn't complete this set, as the characters just didn't grab ms the Same way as those from awakening. hopefully he will return to those characters, and if he does, I'll purchase those books instead, but this one is getting returned.

Wide Array of Voices and Destinations

Given the name of the series you should expect a decent amount of hopping between different locations, and just like the first trilogy this one does not disappoint. the story is complex and has obviously been crafted with attention to details, both from it's own narrative and the ones that came before. I found myself enthralled by many of the side characters that presented unknowns throughout the tale. Great series!

good story

Would you consider the audio edition of Twinborn Chronicles to be better than the print version?

good job on the overall but go a little to predictable the last couple of chapters after having read the other series.

Steam Punk Meets Fantasy

A wonderful blend of steam punk and fantasy. It is clear that the stage is set to add SF to the mix in the next book. I will look forward to it’s release!

Full of Unlikable Characters

If you are looking for a series full of characters that are not even remotely likable then this series is for you. Every character is extremely selfish; I think the main characters spent more time focusing on how to betray allies then fighting their enemies. Only the worst characters from Twinborn Chronicles play a major role in this series. The ending is pointless full of illogical betrayals that made no sense other than to create conflict. It seems like the author got bored and decided to just end the series by killing everyone. This series ending was a huge letdown.
