I keep telling myself "If I just read it all again. I suppose I must like the story enough to be willing to read them all again but, I've read the 1st 3 several times already!!! (Fable for enjoyment but namesake and last legacy, I had to read/listen to more than once just for clarity, not because I loved them so much). I think I have to read them all again, back to back, just to decide if I liked the series. I feel like the Last Legacy would have been more interesting having known just a bit more back story. I know it would take some of the mystery aspect out but, damn, give me something to understand the premises. I almost feel like Saint should have come sooner in the series, rather than the last as a prequel. What did you think of the books and the revelations about Saint and Isolde in the last book? Do you think the Author told the story in the most effective and entertaining order? In book 1 and 2 its pronounced Is-ol'dee and the forth its pronounced Is-old. It changed the pronunciation of one of Isolde's name in Saint. I wish the Author could have given me SOMETHING more about him earlier in the series.Īlso, just a side note on the the audio book. I was very upset with the character Saint through most of the the first 2 books.
I'm a little disappointed at the slow drip of important information.
I'm not sure how I would feel about it as a stand alone novel and I'm debating on going back and reading the other 2 books again now that I have all the info. The forth book just came out, "Saint," and it filled in most of the missing pieces from the other books. I wish I had had made notes on the characters (for both Saint, Namesake and The Last Legacy.) Maybe that was the authors intent? To make the audience think about the where and the who and the why? I found it frustrating. Thus, listening more than once because I went back and read Fable and namesake again to see if I was missing things. I was confused about parts and struggled to put all the pieces together. But the series jumps to "The Last Legacy." Is a different story completely but in the same universe with a few of the smaller characters from the other stories. I only listened to Namesake as an audio book, it was good not great.
Its not a 'pirate book' as much as it is an interesting story of an interesting girl that happens to take place on the sea. I also couldn't find a book that sparked my interest as much. I just I loved the world building and writing so much and the voice actors were enjoyable to listen to. Then I purchased the audio book and listened to it more than 3 more times while I was making art. I tried not to write any spoilers in here. Would like anybody's thoughts on the "Fable" series by Adrienne Young.
I'm trying to sort my feelings out about this series now that I just finished all the books.
