Amazing!

Love love love this author’s works and the narrator is fabulous! Have listened to all of Mr Caldecott’s books and have enjoyed every minute. So sad to have reached the end and can only hope that he has more up his sleeve.

Love it!

So many great adventures and lots of wonderful characters, mostly old, but some new.
I should have refreshed my memory by listening to Momenticon again, but I soon caught up.
I liked the brief delve back into the history of some of the relationships, which certainly helped to answer some questions I had after finishing the first book.

I have to admit I did buy Momenticon partially because there was a Morag in the cast, but I am so glad I did! It was strange, but fun to hear my name mentioned so many times, there’s not that many Morags about theses days!! 😉

Thank you so much Andrew and John for writing and narrating these two books, not sure if there will be a third volume, but I would certainly buy it if one did appear!!

Enjoyable, but you need to concentrate

I am going to listen these books once more, in a year or two. English being my third language, I found it slightly difficult to understand when the «scene» changed, partly due to some of the similar sounding names. Ok while driving a car, more difficult while doing household chores. Greetings from Lofoten!

Did not disappoint.

I love everything Andrew Caldecott writes. A great imagination and ability to develop multiple characters. This was quite surreal in parts but it all came together.

Richly imaginative adventure

This sequel further expands the world well built in Momenticon with well rounded and un-stereotyped characters and a tangled plot, slowly unravelled. Caldecott imagination creates a world which, although dystopian, is full of wonders, and a great destination for escapism.

Enjoyed but needed to listen again to Momenticon first

Even though these two books do not quite equal the brilliance of the Rotherweird trilogy, I still very much appreciated them. For me, the downside of Simul was too many main characters and locations which I felt diluted my immersion in the tale. Momenticon worked so much better with a smaller cast. However I’m very much looking forward to Andrew Caldicott’s next book!

An astounding degree of wondrous imagination .

Wonderful, enthralling, impossibly fertile story telling. How on earth can Mr Caldecott improve on this? If he can, please hurry as I have little time left.

Wonderful sequel

So good to have a prequel and sequel all rolled into one. Fallen for the ensemble cast, hoping for further adventures, although this was a well rounded ending if it proves to be.
