About this listen

Contains Books 3 and 4 of the Rise of the Ancient Gods series.

Torment of the Ancient Gods, Book 3:

In Jon Ryan's life, two billion years down his time stream, he's see many an odd thing. But mixing in the bizarro world of the Ancient Gods has burdened him to the brink with the crazy, the inexplicable, and the just plain wrong. But he remains true to his mission. He must stop the Cleinoid threat to his universe. An impossible appearing task to be certain.

Then Jon suffers an undeniably awkward setback. He is killed. Gáwar, the uber-powerful god of demons, smashes Jon to bits and then eats the little pieces. Bad day for Jon Ryan. Bad day for all our hopes. His friends struggle to go on, to defeat the Ancient Gods, but what seemed impossible before is now not even an acceptable pipe dream.

Despirate to find a capable team, Sapale reunites with Mirraya/Slapgren, the Deft master-witch. Along with Daleria and Tono, they undertake the dangerous and problematic task of locating the alternate timeline Jon Ryan, EJ. They suspect he is able to kill the Cleinoid gods and are anxious to learn his secrets. But EJ is as challenging to deal with as always. Any help he might supply always comes at a price that is difficult to justify.

Wrath of the Ancient Gods, Book 4:

Only Jon Ryan could make such a mess out of the afterlife. Almost a year into his battle against the Ancient Gods, Jon Ryan has little to show for his herculean efforts. The angry gods are surging viciously in our universe. No society can even slow their onslaught. In the Cleinoid universe, they've been stopped for reinforcing their brilliantly successful war in our home, but only just.

Jon and his crew must attack the single most powerful and evil force in the realm of the Ancient Gods.

The odds are astronomically against Jon. His enemies have never tasted defeat. His only advantage is the inconstant loyalty of a once-evil monster Cleinoid corrupted by Jon. And then, Jon decides to go to hell - literally. He will attempt to free from damnation the architect of Cleinoid evil, the master megalomaniac who might just be able to kill off his kin. But, if you plan is to go to hell and resurrect the worst guy who ever live, aren't you asking - begging - for disaster? Not if you're Jon Ryan, #fighterpilot.

Still enjoyable so many books in

The formula remains interesting to me- each book has sufficient continuity to feel familiar but adds new storylines, plots and characters to keep me interested. If you’re listening to this, you’ve probably been with Ryan for a while now so know to expect. If you liked the story so far, you’ll like this one- if not, I suspect you gave up a long time ago.

Fantastic narrator & funny story

The story is good and funny. Some scenes in particular really made me chuckle.
A lot of it is thanks to the narrator who really got the voices down perfectly. He gives the characters life and has a broad range of different voices and accents. Look forward to the non existing cloud.
I recommend this for easy listening.

More fantastical than fantastic

For fans of John Ryan and space Opera this series might appear to be more fantastical than fantastic sci-fi. There is a lot of humour as one would expect, but it does descend too much into childishness. And the mixture of space and fantasy, might not be appreciated by most readers. The narration is superb given the script. I will of course continue with the series anyway.

A pity

I’ve enjoyed every single Ryan story to date - but the ancient gods is just too out there.

Difficult characters, unfunny / predictable dialogue - I really had hoped for better.

I’m committed to book 5/6 so will be giving them a go but it feels super slow and padded out - it could have been massively accelerated.

Too many characters left without an end story / critical role which others have described as “padding” . I agree…..
