About this listen

It pays to take a second look.

In the Deep Dark, it's a long walk home.

The Marva Collins runs into unexpected problems a long way from port. Faced with some hard decisions and uncertain about the choices, Ishmael has to roll the dice with inadequate information.

Is he sailing too close to the edge of forever?

A wonderful ending/pause to a long tale. I've loved it all, right from the first podcast of Quarter Share.
The universe where this is all set is so believable, the characters are so real, I just want the stories to carry on...

I hope this isn't the end

What can I say except, bravo! I've followed Ish since the beginning and I still want more. please keep them coming

Nooooo, I want another one!

The story is an improvement over the previous two books, but it still suffers from Ishmael being the main character, while other characters are the ones that actually do things. Still a decent listen, but a far cry from the previous series.

Repetitive

was very disappointed with the final book of the Marv Collins
unlike the two trio of books that preceded it of the series previous I was always eager to listen to the next book
feel as if this was rushed out and tied up all too neatly for me personally it's the worst of the series to date as for the first time in a good few years I'm not to eager for another tale of ishmal and the gang
maybe the lack of any massive issues like in previous books let it down
will relisten in a couple weeks see if my opinion changes but on first listen would rate it average at best

So disappointed with this series. Nothing much happens, two bar fights in three books, plus company boardroom talk. Repeated phrase… you’ve given me a lot to think about. If it wasn’t that I like the narrators voice, I’d have given up.

Boring
