Especially after the first two books of the series, it felt like a slog to get through this one.

I listened to this book with my dad. Although we both still love the humor. The story was a bigger focus, and although we enjoyed the story, dad felt it was a little too silly and struggled with the stakes. In addition, I felt the problem of the characters having no real motivation or drive beyond random whims really started to show here, as the story constantly had to bend over backwards to justify the characters doing anything. Still, this was a lot of fun, and I’m glad we listened to it together.
