Chasing Sunlight

By: Inadvisably Compelled

Narrated by: Jeremy Frazier

Jonathan Heights saw sunlight once. He must see it again.

At least, that’s what he claims when he charters an expedition east beyond the bounds of civilization. The Illuminated King has an abiding interest in such legends, while the Reflected Council is more interested in the treasures that they are convinced he has found, out there in the dark. The truth is shrouded and motives uncertain as Jonathan and the agents of both Crown and underworld take the airship Endeavor to the strange and exotic lands out there in the darkness.

Wonders and horrors both lie between the human lands and his ultimate goal: things long-forgotten and long-dead, that which could not be recorded on any map. They are temptation and terror to the wise and foolish alike, but not to Jonathan. He only has one goal in mind, and will not brook anything that stands between him and sunlight.

A Victorian mystery novel meets the existential horror of lovercraft. An amazing tail worth listening to.

a true achievement. his best work yet

The book is amazing. I was very sceptical as usually a one book series, I.e. not a series at all, is usually too flat and uninteresting to me.

this however is such a deep world and so unbelievably much happening, with such fresh ideas that I listened to it twice in a row and enjoyed the repeat just as much.

I wished this was a series... there is so much to explore and seek out. so many places and secrets...

Solid

An interesting story that is different from IC's other works.

I quite liked the world building, and the flavor of it.

However, I admit that I found it difficult to become truly invested in the characters and plot of this one. The main character keeps his distance from others, and the reader.

Rich trust-fund affluenza MC

Basically imagine a trust fund prick with a lot of wealth and no responsibiliy or remorse for having killed all his friends. Thats the MC. It doesn’t get better than that. The MC is consumed chasing the next high at whatever cost. Human or otherwise.

Dissapointing from the author
