Summary
Get ready for audiobook three, League of Auld, coming in January 2023, by listening to the Audible best seller, Alexander X (#1 overall).
Alexander Grant is a little too good at a few too many things. Two dozen martial arts. Twice that many languages. Chess, the piano, sports, forging excused absences, you name it. He graduated high school top of his class 17 times. Of course, no one knows any of this. Not that he wants to go unnoticed. It’s just safer that way.
So for the last several decades, Alexander has been forced to move from town to small town to even smaller town—he just bought his 651st house—in an effort to live a painfully quiet life. But when a mysterious cabal attempts to kidnap him and kill his friends, Alexander must use all his skills and centuries of training to outwit the most dangerous man alive, the mastermind of a plot that would change the world forever.
Clever, intriguing, skillfully woven with humor, Alexander X launches us on an epic journey toward a future few of us will survive, rising from a past we never knew existed.

Very different
I really enjoyed Wil Wheaton reading Alexander X. The storyline was unusual and very detailed. Great use of historical fact and fiction. Looking forward to book 2 in this series.

Wil Wheaton's narration never let's you down!
Pretty similar to lots of other titles out there (think Percy Jackson) but still novel in its own way. The narration is top notch.

Great audiobook
Great book but I can't help but feel the story and plot is a mish mash of movies and books I've previously listen and read and watched. But don't let that detract from the book it's very entertaining. Narration from wil Wheaton is very good. Probably one of my favourite narrators. Overall if u want to be entertain this is it, if u want something new different taxing the brain etc ur gonna be disappointed.

too much action and too little plot
Starts well and just gets worse and worse with just more and more action scenes which I found boring and did little to develop the plot or characters. I struggled through it just so I could check if the ending would be any good. it wasn't

Great concept; beginning & middle. Bored at ending
Wil Wheaton is phenomenal at anything he reads.
Great concept, and exciting beginning and middle, but lost engagement towards the of the book. I wasn't excited for the sequel.

A great book
as above...found myself a tad confused with the descriptive aspects but got quite involved in the characters...
The humer is quality and action sequences well written ...
Obviously theres more to come..I have purchased the 2nd book b4 I've finished this so that tells you it definitely worth another credit...
I honestly dont know how many in the series or the year of publication but I can see the usual 6 book catalogue....though only 2 on audible...
Not a fan of bashing the ENGLISH chapters as I come from the MOTHER of most nations...maybe just maybe Edward Savio reads this and put a good word in for us over here across the pond...although I will not be holding my breath...
