Heavenly Chaos

Heavenly Chaos, Book 1

De: Daniel Schinhofen

Narrado por: Andrea Parsneau

Benedict Aaron Rodney had a terrible life for eighteen years.

His parents died, leaving him with his Uncle Skippy Rodney. Skippy was a bust-out drunk who could barely take care of himself. After being given a child he didn't want, he took out the anger he had on the child.

If that wasn't enough for someone to deal with, things got worse for him. His one-time friends got tired of him, making him a target of their boredom and anger. This left the growing child with no safe haven—at school or home, someone was hurting him every day.

Then, something miraculous happened: the Heavens stepped in, granting him a Sphere. Spontaneous manifestation of a Sphere was very rare, but it happened on occasion. Benedict, while being beaten unconscious and having his bones broken, was suddenly the Holder of a Sphere of Regeneration.

A passerby broke up the attack on Benedict and got him whisked off to a clinic to see a Healer. The Healer not only found his newest injuries completely repaired, but also the long list of injuries Benedict had endured throughout his life. That examination turned up the fact that Benedict now had a Sphere and, as such, was bound for the Academy to learn how to deal with his new life.

He was shown around by Agatha, his psychiatrist. She'd help him learn the things that his school had never told him about Holders. It was also on his first day that he'd met Atropos Rosaria Foxglove, his roommate, who had her own problems.

He'd have to learn to coexist with a roommate who disliked him, all while trying to find his new place as a Holder of a Sphere. One of the few non-elite students, he would have an uphill climb. Benedict never backed down from a fight or pain, and he wasn't about to start now.

Little slow but a good first book

He warned us about it being a very slow burn harem and it really is but in a good way. Similar to aithers revival it’s very focused on the training and daily life aspect with splashes of action. Can’t wait for book 2.

Another awesome start

Mr. Schinhoven has definitely outdone himself with the start of this series. Unlike many others who have also provided a great first book and the story tends to die off by the second or third, I have not been disappointed with his work and have purchased all of his books on audible.

When combined with the awesome Andrea Parsneau, this series is going to be another one to follow. The only thing that was left out of this one that makes the other books she has done is my favorite of all of her works: BLOOPERS. Hey Andy where the **** is the bloopers? Even my wife was disappointed that this one didn’t have any.

Excellent! Daniel and Andrea strike AGAIN!

Excellent story build, back stories, and performance! Loved the care he took not to get too graphic with the MC’s backstory, but enough to allow your imagination to fill in the blanks. Nothing felt rushed with this first book. I’m very much looking forward to the series!

Just Amazing

I genuinely don't have any complaints with this book. I typically can find something, but this was just so well rounded. It can be sad enough to make me tear up one moment; than I'll be laughing like an idiot the next. It is honestly wholesome as well: how the characters work through their trauma together.

very entertaining

Enjoyed plot, the characters and their developments are great, they keep you wanting to keep listening to the book. Can't wait for the next one.

characters

As always an excellent and haheart warming story. The focus is mostly on interpersonal interaction and two badly broken people working together to find there rough and broken edges match up and help each other feal. If you're hesitating on this book give it a chance.

Fantastic

Loved the book, I’m ready for the continuation of what looks to be an excellent series.

best yet

this is his best series yet love the depth of each character and the world building

Good, but rare complaint

honestly loving the story and writing and DSJ and Andy are my favorite pair.
however, maybe it's me but Andy feels like she's reading too fast. not by much, only had to go down to .9 speed but that meant I had to deal with slight warbling in the audio that kept bugging me. not huge but a rare complaint from me.
still wonderful stuff

loved it

always enjoyed his books the Easter eggs from other books are fun to find surprised no skip lol
