Disappointing compared to rest of series
I have listened to the first three books of the The War Eternal series. After thinking the first book was good, but not great, I continued on and loved the rest of the series. I went on and listened to The Heroic Age series from Rob J. Hayes as it was released and loved it as well. It is so hard sometimes to find a book with an author you like read by a good narrator, and that is why it is so disappointing when a book like this is, well disappointing .
I mentioned above that I thought the first book The Razors Edge was ok but not great. In my review of that book I stated that the POV character spent a lot of time talking to herself in the book. At first it was funny and helped you get to know her. But it became tiresome as the book went along listening to her constantly telling you what a bad ass she was. The next two books added characters and a wider world, and the internal dialog became less the primary source for the story. I took that as a writer continuing to grow and therefore having improved output, not just in that series, but continuing through the next.
Unfortunately. Hayes has fallen back to using internal dialog as the main source for filling out Sins of the Mother. I kept waiting for something to happen, or for the story to become interesting, but until the final chapters it never did. 80% of this story is the POV character talking to herself about herself, about herself for the last twenty years, and about how she is older and not quite the badass she once was, but still a badass. I found myself losing focus on the story constantly as she blathered, only to refocus and realize I had missed nothing. Also helping to make this book even more disappointing was an infusion of current real world woke politics into the story. Hayes may have added some of this to earlier books, but i haven't noticed. Here, it is very noticeable and detracts from the story. The word xenophobia is used so often I began to roll my eyes every time I heard it.
Overall, a very disappointing 4th book in The War Eternal series, and from an author I was beginning to count on for quality books with good narrators. At least Moira Quirk didn't disappoint here. I finished the book out of curiosity that something might eventually happen, and due to the continuation from the series. I'm hoping this book is just a misstep, and Rob J. Hayes reverts back to the quality of book he is capable of.

YES
Was hesitant to start this book since I thought the first three books were good on its own. But this book expanded the universe more. Can’t wait for the next one!

Dark, sorrowful, and wonderful!
This series gets better with every book! It shows that the heroine of the series not as a perfect person, but a person grieving over her mistakes and regrets. Beside all of her misgivings she pushes on believing in herself and not the stories or the reputation that people believe in. This a very good story. I can’t wait for the next installment!

Boring at times but necessary part of the series. I can’t wait until the next book. I teared up at the end

Sins of the Mother knocks it out of the park
The fourth installment of the War Eternal is an excellent continuation, and I can't wait for more!
