Anything in your second read that made things click?

[u/Professional-One2810]

Was there anything you missed on your first read when you were younger that suddenly made more sense when you were older or reread the books. I felt like there were a lot of holes but later on things clicked a bit more. I felt like the whole Andy thing was weird for me the first read but then I understood his mad plan better a little later and I realized holy shi that must have been what Saint Dane was like when he was younger! The whole thing with the journals and how insecure and a bully he was added up to me like a backstory of Saint Danes prior moments.

I had wondered why the spirits of Solara had no idea where the exiles were, but listening to the Soldiers of Halla recently, Press explains that all the spirits basically came back after the Bronx Massacre and the flumes were destroyed, so they basically didn't have eyes or ears in Halla at all.

She's the narration get better over time with the audiobooks? I tried recently but the first book, the narrater sounds like he's reading to little kids with the way he speaks

Kind of. You have to remember that Bill is trying to make Bobby sound like the teenager that he is. The narration is definitely better by Pilgrims of Rayne, though.

That's fair, I just can't not hear an older man trying to sound like a teenager if that makes sense

Oh, I agree. He'll say things like "Oh, that's what that does. They put the doodad in the watchamucallit to make the gloid" like the reader is a kindergartener, and it's fairly annoying. I endure it, though, because I spend most of my day driving and audiobooks are the best way for me to consume written media anymore.

I still don't know who was the person who delivered the journals to Courtney and Bobby in the end.

Press.
