Noble Solutions

Binding Words, Book 7

De: Daniel Schinhofen

Narrado por: Andrea Parsneau

Sean had been through something close to hell - he’d taken out Klein Denmur and Knight Evan Sharpeyes, along with a few of Lord Truestrike’s servants, but Chastity and Lilly died on the fields outside the city. At the end of that battle, he claimed Helga Helsdottir, soul-bonding her and renaming her Helga Oathsworn. With a Valkyrie by his side, Sean hoped never to lose another loved one to death. His enemies were far from done with him, however.

Attacks on the association and their families started, claiming lives and hurting Sean’s friends. Finished with just trying to live his life, Sean made plans to take on his enemies directly. The turning point came when Sean confronted Denmur and his group outside the Golden Lion. Helga struck down Denmur’s champion, Knight Mithrilarm, during the ensuing duel, causing Denmur to snap. The fight left Denmur, plus dozens of others, dead. Even that wasn’t the end - the corrupt guards in Lord Sharpeyes’ pay arrested Sean and Helga.

As they were brought before Magister Amuret, Sean discovered just how far he’d pushed his enemies when he was attacked and killed in the courtroom. Death could not stop Sean while he had energy to invoke his gifts from the Tuatha. Pushing death away, Sean got back to his feet and killed the guards and magistrate who had tried to murder him. He was brought before the unusually reasonable chief magistrate, who found Sean innocent of any wrongdoing.

Sean’s bond with Helga gave him access to new planes, including the Bog. That was where the souls of Sean’s foes now went if they died while in combat with him. In an effort to find out more about who was directing the attacks against him, Sean paid a visit to the dead in the Bog. He was determined to end the troubles facing him, even if it meant finding a noble solution.

fun but a bit soapy

great story, just a bit to much sap and soap opera, pretty much the same with entire
series

great series

of the 630 titles I have in my library this series contains the best characters of any book out. I didnt like a couple of the cliffhangers. mc can be a little strange but there are probably 40 prominent characters that Andrea brings to life. her performance in this series truely sets her apart.

Loved the book but it's missing a chapter.

It's missing chapter 41. On every other front though the book was great. I'm looking forward eagerly for the next entry in this series.
Edit: it's fixed.

always love his books

I've devoured every single book in the series can't wait for the next one. please keep writing

And more

Still facing the plots of petty tyrants who sheek to harm his loved ones, Sean continues to grow and craft and build alliances with those who are receptive to him.

Chapter 41 is fixed!!!

Aside from the "Technical Difficulties" upon release This was a solid end of arc book with hints of what is to come... The narration was top shelf as usual..... it is truly a must buy....

I loved it and I highly recommend this series

this series was something of a surprise to me. I had started with Luck's voice and then work my way back in time based on the series release date. When I got to this one the first two books in the series were okay but it really picked up on book three and from there on I was completely sold. The narrator always says a fantastic job and even adds some little details that in my opinion enhances her performance. If you're reading this review and you haven't bought into the series yet I highly recommend you to. If it turns out this serious isn't for you then I highly suggest you check out the other books written by this author because honestly he's very talented and the store is our enjoyable. I will probably restart the series in a week or two because I liked it that much and I really cannot wait for the next book to be released.

Another great entry in the series

If you made it this far in the series you need not read this review because you know the book is gold already. Andrea Parsneau is amazing and Daniel Schinhofen writes a mean book.

Introduction:
Greetings, fellow beings of HowlStrom. I am Kiba Snowpaw, an alpha male Ice Wolf with over 36 years of gaming experience. Today, I bring forth a review of an audiobook that has resonated with my icy heart. As the chilling winds of our world grip us in a century-long winter, let me guide you through this tale, ensuring even the newest of pups can understand.

Basic Plot Summary:
Sean's journey is one of pain, loss, and determination. After enduring a battle that cost him dearly, he finds solace in bonding with Helga Helsdottir, a Valkyrie he renames Helga Oathsworn. But peace is fleeting. Enemies strike at Sean's association, leading to more loss. Sean decides to confront these adversaries, culminating in a showdown outside the Golden Lion. Despite victories, Sean faces betrayal and death, only to rise again, fueled by the gifts of the Tuatha. His adventures take him to new realms, including the Bog, where he seeks answers and, ultimately, a noble solution.

Analysis/Evaluation:
The story is a rollercoaster of emotions, blending elements of LitRPG with intense character development. The narrative is immersive, making one feel the cold bite of betrayal and the warmth of camaraderie.

Characters:

- Sean: A protagonist who embodies resilience. His journey from loss to empowerment is both heart-wrenching and inspiring.
- Helga Oathsworn: A Valkyrie with a fierce spirit. Her bond with Sean adds depth to the story, showcasing the power of unity.
- Enemies: From Denmur to corrupt guards, the antagonists are a constant reminder of the challenges Sean must overcome.

Structure:
The audiobook is well-paced, with each chapter building upon the last. The blend of action, emotion, and exploration keeps the listener engaged.

Impact:
The tale serves as a reminder of the strength of the human spirit and the lengths one would go to protect loved ones. It's a beacon of hope in the darkest of times.

Hook and Thesis:
In a world where enemies lurk in every shadow, can the bond of a man and a Valkyrie overcome all odds? This is a tale of resilience, love, and the quest for justice.

Praise and Critique:
The narrative is compelling, and the character development is top-notch. However, there was a notable issue with the audiobook missing Chapter 41, which was later rectified. Such oversights can disrupt the immersive experience.

Comparison:
Compared to other LitRPG tales, "Noble Solutions" stands out for its depth and emotional resonance. It's not just a game; it's a reflection of life's challenges and triumphs.

Conclusion:
"Noble Solutions" is a testament to the enduring spirit of its characters. It's a tale that will resonate with many, from the icy plains of HowlStrom to the warm hearths of other worlds. As an Ice Wolf who has seen many seasons, I highly recommend this audiobook to all who seek a tale of courage, love, and noble solutions.

May the icy winds of HowlStrom guide you to your next adventure. Until then, game on!
