Way too Tedious and at the end, confusing and silly

“I would like to be nice about this story and for about 3/4 of it, I was willing to just call it a teen soap opera with episodes that were too long and some fun "powers" that normal people don't have. But, then we got to the last of the story and one has to spend one's disbelief to survive to the end. The whole of the last few epsiodes was the big fight where Monson's sexism blossoms as he tries to "protect" the girls, who really don't need protecting and who end up saving Monson more times then he ever saves them which is never and actually he has a bad habit of putting them in even more danger.
Then finding out the background of Monson is like pulling teeth. Its just falls into complete craziness as the most ridiculous conversations happen in the heat of battle and the author keeps refusing to make clear what should have been made clear before the fight. And it just goes on and on and on.. I am writing this while listening to the last 1/2 of the last episode and I still can't figure out who is who and what they are or what is going on. Then there is the bad guy Gibson, where the heck did he come from? We spend most of the time assuming Baroty is the ultimate bad guy and then Gibson pops up. I suppose he could have been mentioned in the early parts of the story, but that was so long ago.... and at the end, we know nothing and I can't imagine listening to any sequels that come after this and now, as it has ended, I wish I hadn't listened to The House of Grey in the first place.
I am sorry, but I just can't recommend this to anyone, so I warn you should you take the dip, be prepared for a one long swim.”

“I just finished the story and I LOVED it. I am a podiobook veteran, and this is, hands down, one the best. Well done. Please, tell me there will be a sequel. Please!”

“Very entertaining! I am enjoying it very much. The story line grabs you from the beginning. I would recommend to anyone interested in a good imaginative read that can take you away.”
