Unabridged Audiobook
Absolutely brilliant. Deadhouse Gates has done a far better job at keeping my interest in comparison with book 1, with the faster plot progression. Be warned though, Deadhouse Gates makes for a very gruesome story. Descriptions of warfare are detailed.
Far to many characters and Zero character development. Most detail was pointless and death of characters served no story intent. I'm clearly not a fan of the writing style
Excellent series.
I very much wanted to like this series... but the hundreds of vague descriptions of forgettable characters paired with multiple storylines jumping back and forth is too tedious to follow. The magic was never even briefly explained, and some of the creatures seem like they could be interesting but weren't given much thought. The narrator does an amazing job of trying to bring these characters to life tho
Both the writing and narration were very good. I've moved on to the sequels.
While it takes a few chapters to pick up its momentum, 'Deadhouse Gates' quickly becomes a masterpiece of narrative and atmosphere. I don't think I will ever forget the Chain of Dogs and the journey of the 7th army.
