About this listen

On steamy Pryan, never-ending sunlight and plentiful rain have created a jungle so vast that humans and elves dwell high in the trees and only dwarves live anywhere near the ground. From the treetops the aristocratic elves sell weapons to the other races, whose incessant warfare sends a steady steam of profits and essential resources skyward. Now, generations of dissent and race hatred will not heal -- not even under the threat of annihilation at the hands of legendary Titans. Armed with little more than their wits and prophecy, an elf, a human, and a dwarf must unite to try to save the world from destruction.

*Includes a downloadable PDF of maps, sheet music for 'The Lay of Thillia' and 'Bonnie Earl', and other visuals from the book

Got to love Dragonlance. Sure, one word was pronounced differently. Who cares. On to book 3 😁

Fizban!

A weaker book with a weaker reading. The mispronunciation of Titans is jarring every time you hear it. Added to that, this book focuses too much on a group of elves, humans and dwarves who are less interesting and less sympathetic. It is a slog to listen to compared to the other excellent books.

The weakest of the Death Gate Cycle books

Good book and well read with just one exception.
One of the main creatures are the titans. The narrator can’t say titans. He says Tea-ah-toms. It’s hard to write how badly he mangles the word but it gets frustrating as it’s used so much and doesn’t even sound remotely right.
I do feel this should have been picked up before release. Surly audible checks before release ?

Audible Quality should have picked this up

The only book not required in an amazing series. I would only read for completeness.

Completely missable

If I hadn’t read these when they first came out and know it gets better I would probably have left it here, this is the worst book by far, the story line and characters are so boring, you can skip the middle 11 hours and you wouldn’t miss much. Add to that the pronunciation of the Tytans really does distract and turns those sections into a bit of an annoying comedy sketch. Thank god for the next book (let’s hope the narration improves)

Tea-Tons anyone?
