In this episode of Podcast in Death, We dive into another "We Review the Reviews" session. This time taking on Apprentice in Death and wow, do the one-star reviewers have thoughts. Is Roarke just a billionaire Mary Sue with too much access to NYPSD investigations? Is a laser rifle supposed to have recoil? And most importantly… is outrage over Nora calling a fictional school “Hillary Clinton High” the hill to die on?
We also make a big announcement: for the next three months, we’re taking a detour into Nora Roberts’ Chronicles of the One series! We’ve teased it before, but now we’re finally doing it—and yes, Tara will actually finish the series this time. (Fingers crossed.)
Highlights of this episode include:
Rants about how Nora's fictional science doesn't match up with some people's view of Real Science.
So many people really pissed about Roarke’s 10-minute miracle app that would be impossible for anyone to do, except now it can be done with ChatGPT.
A laser-focused (pun intended) takedown of angry reviewers who just… really need to stop reading if they hate the books this much.
A moment of appreciation for Susan Ericksen, aka Saint Susan of Ericksen, and her flawless narration.
