It's pretty good! Duncan gets to be very narrow since he doesn't have to skip between all the factions, but you get the highlights since Lafayette was almost always there whenever Destiny occurs.
It's about 18 hour IIRC in audiobook format for that classic podcast feel.
I am not disagreeing, just that it was more symbolic than liberating. I just finished reading Mike Duncan's biography on Lafayette and he goes into the causes and perceptions of the Revolution. Lafayette was eventually given a key to the Bastille that he passed on to Washington
When they stormed the castle, the only ones there were the four common counterfeiters, two mentally ill men, and a count who had been imprisoned at the request of his family.
It wasn't really the infamous prison any more but a local jail/asylum.
While I totally understand where the reviewer is coming from, I wonder if the original and this improved Batleth handles differently when used by an alien who is iniately stronger than humans and can brute force their ways into weapon efficiency.
Probably not. Humans have been experimenting with ways to kill each other for millenia, if that blade configuration was effective, we would have seen it before.
Has there been more top officials dying recently or have I not been paying attention?
Statistically, it was bound to happen...
