Still in love with it

Love it from the first book until now.
Great story, great storytelling. I’ll listen to it again some time like I did with the other books (1-10). Highly recommended!

Rating/Rant of a dedicated Listener/Reader

I am a really big fan of this series and have followed it enthusiastically from the start, so I am here to write my rating for this audiobook again.


!!!! Please beware that spoilers will follow!


So if you haven’t read or listened to the audiobook until the very last succulent minute, I advise you to do that before reading my rating.

--------------------------------------------------------------SPOILERS---------------------------------------------------------------

First, I would like to get all the basic stuff behind us. The story, the voice actor, the character development, and the jokes are, like in all other books of this series, excellent – 5/5.

Now, I would like to say a few words about the story. At this point, again, here -----




!!!!!ARE SPOILERS – STOP READING!!!!!!!!

In the first part of the audiobook, the whole arc of Brighthearth City gets wrapped up.

I think the pacing here holds a good balance between the individual development of the characters and the overarching story.

In my opinion, the last part, where Jason absorbs the "authority" of the undead, could have been a bit longer.

The usage of the "weapon" Jason forged with the authority didn’t really get the attention it should have, in my opinion, but in the end, it was okay,
I guess. I thought the good ending for the Brighthearts (they got their own civilization back) and getting out of Jason's soul got enough light so the listener could paint a good picture of the "new" territory they got from Jason.

The "command structure" also got just enough time for the listener to understand how the Brighthearts are now organized.

The second part had a lot more points where I am afraid the story could take a bad turn in the future.

The point I am most afraid of is that too much "screen time" will be given to Jason's niece instead of Jason, as happened here, in my opinion.


The whole story part on Earth took too upfront a position in the second part, in my opinion. I mean, okay, Rufus got a big story part and a "redemption" arc after Gary's tragic death (which I thought was done masterfully; I have to say I am not a person who is "built close to the water," but when he died, phew, I cried some single tears, let me tell you that). But he is not the MC. I have to say that at least I am way more interested in what happens to Jason and his team instead of what happens to his niece, family, or even Rufus. This does not mean I don’t want to hear how they are doing, but the quantity is important

To come back to the "fight" and the interactions Jason has with his fellow immortal beings (now), I would have really enjoyed getting a deeper perspective of the duality of the struggle of getting their minds "downgraded" to a mortal’s perspective and why this is so important for them. (Yes, I know it is said in the story that they can’t "think" like a mortal anymore, so they use their avatars, but what does that REALLY mean?).
I think Jason's fight should have gotten way more screen time to make the conclusion pop off really hard. Maybe that’s why the conclusion felt so short in the story. I think it should have been a really, really big reveal in Jason fashion. It could have been really epic, but it stayed on a "cool" level for me.

To finish my rating/rant at this point, I would like to say that I really enjoyed this book again and I hope that we get a lot of Jason's adventures to listen to in the future (please don’t let it take too long for the next book; I can’t wait!).

Shirtaloon dropped another Masterpiece

This book has been the best in a quite a while. And that is high praise considering the quality of the others. I especially liked that Humphrey addressed trust between the team and Jason, Jason has threatened his friends on multiple occasions in the last few books which I always felt was out of character and just cringe. The "oooh I chill with Gods" and "Have you heard of all the badass things Jason has done" tropes also weren't overused in this book like in the last one. Critics aside however, I absolutely love the way Shirtaloon tells this story. Old themes and characters are always picked up again after some time or another. And Shirtaloon manages to give even minor characters a lot of depth. I just have to say again I love the way he tells stories and seeing the whimsical Jason and his friends and family grow through legendary adventures every half year or so is absolutely the highlight of my year. I get giddy with joy like a kid receiving a Christmas present when I see a new upload.
