Love the story but the narrator...

Revisado: 02-03-23

Fascinating story that kept me listening despite a disappointing reader. I feel bad for the author having this narrator dictate his book.

He can do two British dialects, super posh and OTT chavvy. He's also one of those male readers that makes women sound like mice, which drives me mad. And to top it off, despite the book being based in England, and every other character in the book having a British accent, the main character bizarrely has an American accent, and to make it worse, he occasionally says A.R.S.E in a super British accent, which is so jarring.

Despite all of this, the book was so good I persevered right to the end, and was glad I did amazing storyline that kept me gripped!

Good story, average narrator

Revisado: 01-15-23

Very few unique voices used by the narrator, which is a shame cos the book was great!

Narrator is absolutely fantastic

Revisado: 10-26-22

The story is great, I've loved every installment in this book series. The characters are really fun and likeable. And they all have a nice arc. But what really sells this series is the narrator. She is absolutely fantastic! I don't think I've ever heard another narrator being able to do so many voices and yet make them so distinct you instantly know who's talking. Wow. Just wow.

Can't Get Enough

Revisado: 10-19-22

Both the missus and I are hooked on this series. The first book was really good, great character development and good story. But thus one? Wow! I was wondering how the author would keep it interesting, but wow did she ever? So much goodness in this story. Plotlines from the first book is brought together and expanded, the humour is fantastic, and the adventure and character growth is so good.

Can't get enough of this series or writer so jumping straight on to the next book!

Thrilling read

Revisado: 10-09-22

This is my first dungeon LitRPG type story, but I have to say I absolutely loved it. The characters are likeable, the story engaging, and there's lots and lots of action and adventure going on.

It's kind of a "short read" for some, but I still think the pace is nicely set without feeling rushed.

As always JD Astra's book as an incredible narrator. I loved listening to her bring this book to life.

I came straight over from the author's previous series Firebrand, and I may have been turned into a superfan. I think this author has a wonderful way and a real talent for telling stories.

Good Start w Great Potential

Revisado: 10-09-22

To start off, thus story has a lot of BIPOC and LGBTQAI rep which, as a BIPOC trans man, I really appreciate. Because, yes, representation matters.

The performance of this book is absolutely stellar, though as is very common for American narrators, the Irish accent is a little bit rocky. Not so much that it distracts, but it's definitely not a great impression. Other than that the narrator does a great job brining the story to life.

The story is a little but rocky, it has some really good moments that had me laughing so hard, I had to replay them. There is a bit of insta love which is not my personal preference, but will satisfy those readers who like a little extra romance. All-in-all a good start with potential to be a great series.

Good storyline, reasonable voice actor but...

Revisado: 09-10-22

Really good storyline, incredibly well fleshed out world and the writing has improved on book two. The voice actor is good when he is the main character, but give him an accent to do and...well for me I've just had to let it become a running joke in order to keep listening. A shame, but he isn't the first and won't be the last.

Great world & story, shame about the voice actor

Revisado: 09-08-22

A very fun, interesting concept based in an exceptionally well fleshed out world. I found the Firebrand series first which are fantastic so after starting there with such an amazing voice actor and very well written book I was a little disappointed with this one. Love listening to another side of the story. But the use of the word 'titties' alone lost him one star on the story and the voice actor is really bad at doing voices other than his own. I'll carry on listening cos I like the storyline so far but this is definitely not the best representation of it.
