Bioshifter: Volume 3

Bioshifter, Book 3

By: Thundamoo, Natalie Maher

Narrated by: Sarah Beth Pfeifer

Euphoric from finally revealing her true self, Hannah finally starts to find things in her life going right as she teaches Earth about magic and has a pleasant vacation in Manumit, the city of the robotic Crafted.

Of course, relaxation is always short-lived for her, and soon enough her life starts pulling her in all directions. Why did the Crafted originally go to war? Why did they so abruptly stop? How does she handle the government agents watching her house? And most importantly of all, how does she stop the impending apocalypse that the Disciples of Unification are so sure she'll cause? The end of the world is a little much for one girl and her friends to shoulder, but she can do it, right?

Except it's not a matter of if she can do it. She has to. There's no other choice.

This is the third and final book of Bioshifter.

Fantastic, brutally so.

A tragic, melancholic story, but full of humor and heartfelt love too.

Breaks my little heart seeing the stuff Hannah goes through. But Ida and Valerie are so sweet on her it’s just so adorable.

Absolutely worth the credit, despite the sadness baked into a plot as realistic about the consequences of imbalanced power dynamics from abusers onto their victims.

Also I absolutely loved how much the voice actress got into the delivery of the psychotic Goddess lines. It was delightfully unhinged.

Credit well spent.

Wow didn't see that coming.

Great series that deals with a lot of issues well and it made the characters feel real, even when I'm annoyed with fatalizum at times.

Another absolute 10 out of 10

SPOILER ALERT

I have only one complaint. I am an Ida x Hannah shipper and while I personally am imagining that they regain their friends with benefits relationship it isn't outright said.

hopes dashed but sometimes the good guy doesn't win

near the end I kept wanting to tell the her to name her spell Ultra Wormhole and thus force the world's to stay separated but that's not the direction the author took obviously

heartfelt, well done, and painful

In many ways, The discussions raised, to me, are meaningless. The goddess, be she allegory for cruel life or an abuser, Does not exist, Or as at least is largely a lie. All human power, no matter how seeming absolute, It's a joke. And I believe this life is and was good and beautiful, And it is only the sinfulness of man, And our broken natures, That gives the illusion otherwise. Without God to give meaning to the world, The idea that we can just press on hoping that the good days will come again, Is just self-delusion, Meaningless as our suffering. Plus, She gives rise to her good life from impossibly good friends. I have very good friends, I know people with very good friends, And good friends like she's describing in this book? That she seems to be basing her meaning of life on? Either they don't exist, Or so rare they might as well not be. I'm not saying good friends are not valuable and good and special because they are. But they are just as flood and sinful as we are, They cannot be our Raison de etre.
There is a good God. And he loves us. And he is not cruel, He is not capricious, He is not tyrannical, He is not abusive. He loves us so much, He came down and bore our pain and shed our tears. He bled and was broken and died for us. And it hurts to see people act like he's not there that he doesn't care. It hurts to feel like he doesn't care sometimes even when I know he does. Wherever you are thundermoo, I hope you find your way home. I hope you are not blinded by false happiness, Which will turn and betray you in the end. Not because it's evil and cruel, But because it is sinful and weak just like we all are and it can't do what you want it to do. God bless you. God bless us all.
Thank you for your story. I enjoyed it.
