The Strength of the Few
Nov. 12th, 2025 04:32 pmI was really looking forward to continuing with the Hierarchy series by James Islington...
Rare occasion of my jumping on the band wagon, reading a really popular book and then getting hold of the sequel as soon as it comes out.
Decided to go with the audiobook because I didn’t want to buy a hardback or wait for ages from the library
Looking back on The Will of the Many now – I don’t have wildly positive feelings towards it (other than the desperate need to know what happens after the cliffhanger ending) – though my review from last year is definitely very positive.
And then I listened to about the first hour of the book – and I just didn’t care…
Audiobook probably wasn’t the best choice because I struggle when I can’t visualise character names and there was a huge amount of background info that was hard to follow…
I decided I didn't want to commit to 30 hours listening to a book I wasn't that interested in, so I DNF'd.
