The story premise is good but it almost reads like a rough draft.  We get told rather than shown what happens.  The narration was also flat and the strange music at the end of every chapter break pulls you out of the story and at times seems to mock the story itself.  if you are interested in this series,  I hear there is a revision coming.  Listen to that one instead.  its probably better done and the story itself isn't bad.
