  • murry537, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6This book totally rocks!! The QTVR is awesome too.

    J.C. is an awesome guy. I interviewed him for my podcast at http://www.crankyfanatic.com and he was a heck of a nice guy.

    If you like sci-fi thrillers, you should check out J.C.'s book. He has me on the edge of my seat every week.
  • starbuck3275, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5This is an awesome book. J.C. is a superb writer, and has become a master at the cliff hanger. I am totally hooked on this book,
  • halitech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I started listening after book 2 was actually started and within 3 weeks I have totally caught up and on more then 1 occasion people on the bus have given me weird looks when JC throws a cliffhanger at us to end an episode. As one listener said, he keeps cliffhanging us. If you download only 1 free audiobook in your life, THIS IS THE 1 TO GET!!!!!
  • tagintheseam, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5This is the first podiobook I was introduced to and I am HOOKED! I caught up with all the podcasts within a week, just listened to them back to back. I find myself anxiously waiting each week for the next episode. JC is an excellent writer, storyteller, and knows how to end each episode leaving you with a feeling of being "cliffhangered".
    I had the pleasure of meeting him at Dragon*Con 2006, and I have nothing but great things to say about him. He is a great guy, great writer with a tremendous amount of talent, and has a great thing going. Love this book!

  • joevideo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4This is a really great podcast / audiobook. And the price is right!
  • Dcphillips18, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I have been listening for awhile now, J.C. is an excellent writer.
  • Gazaar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+47th Son is wonderfully suspenseful podiobook, that'll hook you from the start!
  • mavjop, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4J.C. is a heck of a writer. :) The 7th Son trilogy (now somewhere in the middle of Book 2: Deceit) is one hell of a ride. The characters are interesting, the story compelling, and those cliff-hangers ... oy vey!

    Make sure you listen from the very start -- the first episode of Book 1: Descent.
  • cactusnic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4This an excellent podio book. JC gets you good and cliff hangered every episode. His voice acting is 1st rate too.
  • manata, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4This story is so intense and well written, but now you can see it with your own eyes. This virtual tour is spot on what I pictured in my head. Awesome!
  • sambearpoet, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4This is an awesome book, and I am seriously addicted to it.
  • brianrlawson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Great story and very well produced. I eagerly anticipate each new episode coming down the line to make my drive to work tolerable.
  • jgerhold, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3If you're even remotely interested in podcast books.. you need to get this one!
  • Maxisalope, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The story is so surprising and beatifully read by the author. It is great. Try it
  • Houstoniangirl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3This is a great book and JC Hutchins does a kick ass job of reading the book to us Beta Clones. You'll be addicted too!!!
  • akiah, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2J.C. Hutchins deserves all of the praise that he gets. His work is awesome!
  • grailwolf, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I totally agree with the other comments I'm seeing here. The QTVR tour is just an amazing bit of fan art, and the story itself is so worth checking out. I've been pimping it on my podcast, Grailwolf's Geek Life (http://www.grailwolf.com) for months, and so far everyone who I've turned on to Seventh Son has thanked me.
  • WiredPig, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This is one awesome story. You know what they say, hearing is believing. When you hear it in the story, now you have the option to see what the clones see.
    7Th Son, Books One and Two... gotta have it.
  • splotty, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2JC rocks. Totally addicted. Very impressive 3D tour. Keep up the good work.
  • Riverboat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2A great tour that matches the thoughts of the writer a well done piece of artwork. Listen to the book and see where all the action is taking place a great concept!
  • dedricmauriac, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I heard of 7th Son when they came into Second Life with a pretty cool build of the womb and memory arrays. At that time, they were kicking off the second novel. I was hooked from there. I listened to all the episodes from the first and I'm drooling over each new episode in the second book. JC Loves to give you cliff hangers that have banging your head against the wall.
  • shadownight, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Great writing style, great story, great narration... JC Hutchins is one hell of an author.
  • cfsporn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This is a great podcast
    I started listening @ episode 5 and am still loving it!
  • gloomy50, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This is the best Podcast by far. Listen to the first episode of Book One and you will be hooked. J.C does a great job keeping you on the edge of your seat. Check out his web site jchutchens.net and see the virtual tour. Everything about this book is great, and you can see it from how loyal the fans are to J.C. Check it out, you will not be sorry.
  • xian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1If you have not had not had the pleasure of hearing an episode of seventh son, do yourself a favor and do so now. The story is brilliant and enirely transfixing... I began listening just after the 1st book ended and I dowloaded and listene to each episode in just over 24 hours. I just can't get enough if it
  • Christiana2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Book 1 wasn't nominated for a Parsec award for nothing! The series is awesome, and this is a really cool little virtual tour. I got quite a kick out of it.
  • ottergal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You should be listening to this story! I'm been hooked into the book since the beginning and can't wait for each new episode. From production quality (that's a big deal when sticking with a story, I think) to the character development this audiobook has it all.
  • BetaMorgan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The 3D reps are almost exactly like I imagined them. Pretty cool stuff. Never much of an audio-book type myself but Hutchins has got me hooked. The story is great and he reads it so well, it's hard to believe this is his first run at this.
  • Rozza, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this is awsome! im lovin this book!
  • Zaldor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I have been hooked on this Podiobook since Chapter 11 of Book 1 (Where I quickly listened to the previous 10 chapters in 48 hours!) - and look forward to each new episode! If you like Sci-Fi, you much check out this podiobook!!!
  • ElphHK, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17th Son introduced me to podcasts, and even though I have since listened to loads of other podcast novels and short stories, this one is still #/1 on my list. Fantastic job!
  • chigh, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This books hits the ground running and doesn't let up. Mr. Hutchins has honed his skill well for leaving you wanting more. I anxiously await each episode. Awesome job, JC!
  • zaphodbblx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Tour is great and the books are addictive!
  • leafonwind, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is such an FANTASTIC story and JC has such a great storyteller voice!!!! Can't wait for the new episode each week!!!!! His cliffhangers are so cool!! (Not for the faint hearted and that's just why we LOVE it SOOOOOOO much! 7th son rocks!!!!!! Go and listen to it!
  • elfkin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This podcast is A M A Z I N G!!! Check it out!
  • chrischrischris, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Another problem is the cliff hangers. Two people have guns pointed at each other and a single shot rings out. Queue music and end episode. Have been listening since 3rd episode of first book. Very good.
  • bonky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1not a fan of second life. but damn good story, any publicity that gets people to listen to it, is worth it in my eyes. ^_^
  • steeltx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Only problem with this Podcast / Podiobook, is the wait between episodes!!!!$!$^@#&$&* Great work JC.
  • bpende, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Awesome PodioBook!!! Awesome story!!! Awesome PodCaster!!!

    I love listening to this story. The opening lines of the first book drew me in, and JC Hutchins really appreciates his listeners.
  • BetaClone10, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Go to jchutchins.net and try his podcast novels. If you don't have a podcatching client, just listen to the files on his site.
  • BigAl690, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Give this pod cast novel trilogy a try and you'll be hooked. Right from the opening chapter 1 of book 1, the story hurtles along at an alarming pace, expertly writen and performed by the author J C Hutchings
  • Mauritz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0great story just listen to the first two episodes and you wont look back, i didnt.

    get the first ep @ http://libsyn.com/media/jchutchins/7thSon1-01.mp3
  • benfraley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Why are you looking at these comments? Go to jchutchins.net right now fools!
  • tubeyes, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Tour-y goodness!

  • digrobdig, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0I'm very much enjoying this book and highly recommend it.
  • Riv3r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0JC Hutchins rocks! I've been listening to 7th son since day 1 and I still can't wait for the next episode. I have trouble believing that anyone would just _give away_ something this good. If you like sci-fi, check it out.
  • joekneeland, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I am assuming if you are into digging, then you know what podcasts are. This is an incredible use of podcasting. I am seriously hooked to the book. Have been from the start. Keep up the great work JC
  • smthng, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The VR tour is awesome and is probably the first time anyone has created a world this detailed based on a podcast novel. The 7th Son novel is excellent and shouldn't be missed. You owe it to yourself to go check it out!
  • davidburr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is one of the greatest podiobooks that I've ever listened to. If you haven't started following 7th Son yet, hop on and enjoy the ride!
