Quality does not dip even a little. Absolutely continuing to love this Manga.

Started this re-read on audible today at work. Free by the way!

Narrated by Andy Serkis. This isn't my favorite LOTR book, but man Andy gives you another whole level of experience when listening. The songs I usually skip over when physically reading I enjoy very much on audio.

Just some top tier masterful narration!

So far this is exactly what I have been waiting for the last two books. I might have to do both audio and eyeballs, because I can't put this book down.

Finished book 2

Takes place in the city of Darujhistan. This is a much tighter story line than the first book. Very straight forward and not confusing at all. I just absolutely love the prose. Reminds me of Dickens or Susanne Clark.

Quote I liked

"Maruillio snorted. 'Kruppe's memory is revised hourly. All that holds him together is fear of being discovered.'"

I know someone like that in real life!

Light read, but ample tension. Not really my setting for a book, but still liking it so far. Freida just knows how to keep you guessing and wanting more.

Just finished book one which takes place in the city of Pale. Multiple POV's, flashback, and timeline hoping, make this a little confusing, but I am really enjoying it so far. A very imaginative world with some excellent writing.

I am absolutely having a blast with this manga. I'm going to be blowing up my budget buying the following volumes!

Listening to this book on audible and very much enjoying it so far. Damian Lynch the narrator is doing a fantastic job.

"I pulled the book from the bag. I checked to see if Huck was still sleeping soundly and then I opened it. The smell of the pages was glorious."
