Ok, found the first thing I don't like about the audiobooks.

Why did we wait until Book 6 to have an echo chamber for the chats?

Eye of the Bedlam Bride was one of my favorites.

It has started off great! It does however feel like they really leaned into the audiobook here. They have sound effects for everything (ping spell) and the chat window is just a chamber. I don't understand the need for the change in chat window, we already had the beeps like we were playing Metal Gear Solid.

I know the beeps were added in book 2 (I know, because I bitched about it ), but I feel like the slight echo effect was present before book 6. Maybe they made it more pronounced?

If it was there I never noticed it. Not sure why it's so prevalent in Book 6.

I think the sounds add to it

I haven't listened to the soundbooth audio immersion yet, but I will

I think they only have books 1-3 done on that

Much expanded cast (including a new donut if I remember right?) and all the background noises

I completely forgot that there was mention of a stripper named Beast A La Mode in Parade of Horribles. Had me cracking up when I heard it again.


I can't make myself picture the mantaurs how they are described. I keep seeing a normal centuar in my head.

There's some "official" art of a Mantaur here I believe.

That's a snip of the original Anarchist's Cookbook cover before they did the hardcover reissues:

I love the illustrations but the way they're described in the novels their claws are the entire arm that flares out not just Wolverine like claws

I... don't remember that description? I just did a word search both for "blades" and "Wolverine". These are the three results:

"He abruptly lifted all four arms into the air, and metal blades erupted from the flesh over his top two wrists with a shing, like he was some sort of fricked up Wolverine."

"The two creatures came galloping up, screaming at the tops of their lungs. They both had their Wolverine-style claws out and ready to engage."

"He lowered his arms, blades retracting back into his skin. Blood dribbled down his hands where the blades appeared."

So my memory was completely wrong



I could've sworn that the first description from the iron tangle was different but obviously not.

Just got to the part in the Bedlam Bride where they are testing out fighting mechanics with their cards. My word that chapter was hilarious.

Samantha meeting Jesus
Everything about Shi Maria
Raul and his insecurities vs Geraldo
A donkey snake
Asojano

I was belly laughing for 20 minutes.

I really was worried at first because of how the floor started. It has quickly ramped up for sure.

And theres better characters to come!

Theres a scene near the end of that book that is the funniest one in the series IMO. You'll know it when you see it.
