Very uneven. The first half of this book was painfully slow and I went days and weeks without being interested in picking it back up. The second half was far more engaging, but still slow at times until probably the last quarter or so.
I'm not sure what to rate this book, the first half was 2.5 or 3, while the second half was 3.5 or 4. This book is so long it could easily be 3 books. I'm inclined to just go with it ending strong and give it a 3.5
I'm not sure if the series has just simply grown too bloated (like many epic fantasy series before it), or if it's simply that my tastes and reading habits have severely changed since I first started reading this series.
Some character arcs were far more interesting to me than others. I'll be curious to see how interested I am with his planned break between this book at the next. Likely I'll be excited to pick it back up again, but probably far less excited than I was after the first three books.

It was quite good, but not quite as good as the last book. It did finish really strong though and I can't wait for the audio version of the next book to be out next month.
I've been binging this series in audio now for the past 2 months or so and I'm sad I'm not able to jump right into the next one.
The narration continues to be fantastic. I guess they are redoing the series as an audio drama with multiple narrators, but I'm good with just Jeff Hays. He's one of the best narrators I've listened to in quite some time.
This series is a lot of fun. The humor can be a bit sophomoric, which may turn off some folks, but it works pretty well for me.
If you haven't checked this series out yet and you like RPGs/heavy action fantasy series give this one a look.

You know a book is great when you will stare at a wall just to get some extra audiobook time in. Easily the best of the series so far. He's been building up the "6th floor" since early on in the series and he didn't fail to deliver. I really love this series. It's going to be hard to top this book though.
The quality of the audiobooks has gone up with each one. I'm generally not a huge fan of the music and sound effects in audiobooks, but they do a good job of it and don't overdo it.

This was easily the best one yet. I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens in the next book.
