About this listen

My name's Noah Kilmartin. I'm from Ruddock, Ohio, and I'm just about 50 percent unqualified to save the universe from the slavering demonic hordes of the super evil bitch queen Lilith.

But just when I thought things were starting to look up...

My companions and I arrive in Tagimron, the sphere of discordance. It's a hellscape on wheels, and every aspect of this claustrophobic and grimy world is intent on tearing my companions and I apart. Our only chance of resisting corruption and failure is to hold fast to the bonds that unite us, the love and faith that keep us strong.

But Tagimron is a world designed to exploit our greatest weaknesses, to weaponize our fears, doubts, and traumas. As perilous as our foes may be, the greatest danger in this sphere may very well be ourselves.

Wish me luck. We're all going to need it.

Warning and minor spoilers: The Manifold is an 18+ book intended for mature listeners. It contains graphic sex and copious amounts of medieval violence.

Sadly this third book in the series has gone overboard and ends just soft porn. Really enjoyed the series often did have long erotica parts but this third book spends lots of time on erotically and less on the real story.....sad

I enjoyed the character progression. Leo gets a bit too frenetic at times, almost slurred, but I've got used to it over the series. Looking forward to the next one.

Good addition to the series

4.5 rounded up this time out.

I've said previously that this isn't a genre I'm particularly fond of and I bought all 3 in a special offer without reading the full blurb with the 18+ warning, only the initial blurb and 4+ averages here and on GR.

I think Mike Truk is really beginning to excel with this series - I read somewhere that he initially started trying to write epic fantasy but received constant poor feedback and eventually decided to write something 'fun' instead. This presumably explains why we now have a strong plot arc and serious character development, not only of the MC and the secondary partners, but also on tertiary characters.

The reason I dropped half a star was due to the partial resurrection of the Five Trials type plot line and while our MC Noah may still appear a bit whiny, for me it's actually endearing that he's playing over things again and, more importantly, learning from his mistakes and growing. He's now developing from the underpowered and overawed character from Five Trials in to the rock on which the team is built.

I do feel that this series would stand up well if the all the sex (aka 'bonding') was either insinuated (it is in places here) or glossed over and I don't think I can offer better praise really.

So, that said, I will definitely be keeping an eye out for the continuing adventures of the 10th Saviour and his trusty companions...

Leo Barnabas does an excellent job - the only thing stopping me giving him 5 stars is the occasional bit of over-excitement when the situation doesn't really merit it. He also does a generally good job of giving each character an identifiable voice but there are the odd slips where a couple of characters are a little too close in their assigned voice.

Wow! Just wow!
