STAR RATINGS GUIDE
A Melancholy Swan Song Worth A Listen
THE BIRDICT
🧡 This is a sad and difficult story, but one which opens up many a fascinating thought wormhole. Amongst these are existential questions about quality of life and the nature of family. If you like grappling with such mind mazes, I high recommend this. It is also an incredibly moving account of brotherly love.
💚 Having said all that, this is about the most depressing thing I have ever heard. I won’t be listening to the sequel. I have confidence in Dietzel’s writing and am sure it will be equally fascinating, but I can’t do this again.
Content warning for a lot (just so much) animal suffering. To be fair, most of the violence is animal on animal, but it’s tough.
I listened to this for free on Audible Plus.
SQUAWKING THE TALK
🎧 Ray Chase has lent his gravelly voice box to many sci-fi titles and he is, as always, excellent. Expressive and likeable and engaging.
🎧 If you’re looking for a relaxing escapism, this is not it. Between the general hopelessness and animal animosity, this is pretty much a downer. BUT it’s easy to follow and, at just under 7.5 hours, is not a massive commitment.
