Lux AudioBook
Lux is a science fiction and fantasy novel. It is the first installment in The Texas Reckoners series. The same book is the fourth chapter of Reckoners novel series. It is written by Brandon Sanderson and Steven Michael Bohls. Brandon Sanderson is one of the finest writers of science fiction who has given so much to SF fans. Steven Michael is another good name in the SF fraternity and has done enough to amuse fans of science fiction.
The audio narration of the book is done by MacLeod Andrews. He had an excellent understanding of the characters and performed this novel brilliantly. [Lux AudioBook ]
At the time when the red star Calamity showed up in the sky then few believed that the end of the world has come. They were right. Calamity led to the creations of Epics: They were human beings with exceptional powers which they don’t deserve to have. Those were the ones who could have easily saved mankind. They could have lifted us all into prosperity and humanity. But, they burned instead. They slaughtered as well. On top of that, they conquered. Even more, they ruled the planet as well.

Lux is very unlike a Brandon Sanderson novel. The first half of this book felt very much like another version of the Steelheart novel. Then, the second half seems to be very loosely connected. It was kind of overly edgy. Overall, the book didn’t fare well for the listeners at all. The only good thing to cherish about this book is its narration, but even that is of no use when the content is lacking quality and originality.
