The Dark Volume: A Novel Audiobook

" like many others, I enjotyed it, but it added little new to the world created in the "Glass Books" "

" The sequel that I read in a matter of hours and then througha tantrum because of the cliffhanger. Still absolutely fabulous. "

" Just one chase scene to another - no real plot. A bit disappointing. "

" I loved the first book. This one was good, but by the end it became clear that this was a middle volume, and stuffed with filler. I am worried that Dahlquist will fall prey to Robert Jordan syndrome--entire books full of nothing much happening, protagonists who disappear for books at a time, authors dragging a series out so long that they die before the dramatic conclusion can be written... "

" A disappointing sequel to The Glass Book of the Dream Eaters. "

" This was not nearly as good as the last two but I must confess I still want to know what happens next. "

" Not a book to read with flu "

" A bit muddled. The story seemed to have little shape, like a roller coaster with teeny, tiny hills. I'll read the third one when it comes out, but don't have high hopes. Svenson's sections were dull. Temple's and Chang's sections kept me reading. "

" I didn't really care for this book. I didn't read the first book in this series so I was confused by a lot of things. There were many moments when I almost gave up on finishing the book. "

" oh my god. i can't believe the not ending. i should believe the not ending. others went before me and others said as much, and still, i had to begin and continue and finish the not finish. if i could wring mr. dahlquist's neck, i would. "

" This book reminds me of the second act of Into The Woods, where everything that has nicely tied up at the end of the first act falls to pieces. It was still a good book, but there wasn't a lot of warm happiness in it. "

" exciting sequel to Glass Books of the Dream Eaters. "

" The sequel to The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters, I was actually pretty disappointed in this book. It was too similar to the first book, and I was unhappy with the ending. I'm hoping for a third in the series to make me feel better. "

" Even more exciting than the first book! I am looking forward to the next volume in the series "

" Disappointing. All the manic running around of Glass Books, none of the fun. And nothing gets resolved. "

" Perhaps, not quite as strong as the first in the series (definitely read that first), but still a great read that carries the plot and characters forward and reveals more of the world they inhabit. Can't wait for a third installment! "

" This one just squeaked by with 3 stars. Not nearly as engaging as the first in the series. "

" This is the follow up to The Glass Book of Dream Eaters. It did get a little muddled as so many characters were introduced, but I still loved it and am now starting the last in the trilogy. "

" Perhaps, not quite as strong as the first in the series (definitely read that first), but still a great read that carries the plot and characters forward and reveals more of the world they inhabit. Can't wait for a third installment! "

" Not as strong as its predecessor, but nonetheless far superior to most other fantasy literature "

" I did something I rarely do - lost interest and skimmed through. Like the idea of the glass books, but wasn't feeling the people and the action scenes felt tedious to me. "

" What can I say? It's a guilty pleasure... "

" I was looking forward to this book, the second in the series. Unlike the first, this one is not self-contained, i.e. the ending isn't an 'ending', and now I'll have to wait for the third book to find out what happens. "

" The ending disappointed me, unless it's another false ending (almost certain to be the case, actually). My thing for Cardinal Chang, conceived after reading Glass Books of the Dream Eaters, remains intact. "

" just as good as the first book. such a fun an unusual scifi read. I would give this a 4.5 if I could. "

" horrible...do not read. The previous one is the serious was at least entertaining...this one was disjointed. "

" Eh. A sequel to The Glass books of the Dreameaters. The first was great craic. In this book not much happens but there is so much activity that you almost don't notice until the end. If there is a third book I'll still have to read it just to find out what happens. "
