This is a wonderful collection of short stories in and around a couple of the author's fantasy series that definitely made me want to get into them, which is easy to do with this anthology and at least the first book of the series being in the Audible Included library.

Having only read The Murderbot Diaries before, it was really interesting delving into Wells' fantasy and seeing the difference in writing style, which actually reframed my perspective on the style for Murderbot. The quality and interest of the stories has some variance, as all anthologies do, but that is from pretty good to great in my opinion.

I always get excited to her Samuel Roukin's narration as he's always brilliant and has quickly become one of my favourite audiobook performers, after first coming across him in the brilliant Chasing Graves trilogy by Ben Galley.

Thoroughly recommend.

After listening to this I do not care to listen to the rest. I really did not like the magic system. The curses that can do anything and the chosen ones are quite silly.

I love Martha Wells's Murderbot books so much I thought I'd give this a try, but sadly the reader ruined it for me. He makes no effort at all to make the main character sound different, but curiously shows he could do it with other minor characters. Clearly he has the skill, but for some strange reason chooses not to use it, which is worse than someone who gives it an honest go but just doesn't have that skill. With a physical book you can use your imagination, but obviously when you hear a reader it is distracting, and really makes or breaks the experience.
