Brightblade (2nd Edition)

UnderVerse, Book 1

By: Jez Cajiao

Narrated by: Wayne Mitchell

A realm aside from our own. The center of the realities. Home to every spectrum of magic.

From the beautiful to the terrible, it was all held in delicate balance by the Eternal Emperor and his immortal children. For 10,000 years, the empire was the bastion that protected the sentient races from the darkness, but the revolution, and the War of the Gods has changed all that . . .

Jax seems like a regular guy, except that he fights creatures from a strange place called the UnderVerse in his sleep, leaving him covered in horrific scars when he wakes up. The mysterious disappearance of his brother five years prior has forced Jax into a holding pattern, with a job he tolerates, a girl he kinda, sorta loves . . . until he's kidnapped and given a stark choice by his asshat of a father: Go to the UnderVerse in reality, travel to the capitol of that ruined realm at the center of reality, and open a portal for the Noble Houses to return home . . .

Or die, slowly.

That's the good news. The bad is that he has to survive the arena first, to prove his right to go. Twelve will enter, only one can leave . . .

Please use a female for female voices

The girl voices are really really bad sounds like they have beards. The male voices are good though with a heavy South African accent. The stats are unnecessary if he didn't upgrade them saying zero many times doesn't make it better when he finally gets a stat point. I wish these books would just do the whole stat sheet once at the beginning and once at the end

Wonderful

I love the stories each book gets better and better. The first books of the series is always hard for me to get through because of the intensity of the narrator. But in the later stories it becomes necessary couldn’t get through the next book without his dramatic flair.

Interesting story arc. Poor narrator

The story has a really interesting plot. The narration was very cringe worthy. The MC is a true idiot that is hard to stomach.

Let the character grow on you!

I almost stopped listening because of the performance, but after a few chapter I realized how great the performance was. the book speaks for itself and the narrorator deserves much credit.

outstanding book

I had a lot of great laughs throughout this book. perfect match between author and narrator.
