About this listen

An LA taco truck chef is transported to a fantasy realm where bad reviews are the least of her worries in this cozy culinary LitRPG adventure.

For Renee “Nay” Favreau, food is life. She’s the owner of a Los Angeles taco truck who dreams of becoming a respected chef and expanding her fleet, and whose greatest enemy is an unhappy food critic. Always hunting for her next great dish, the search eventually leads her to a near-fatal encounter with an interdimensional spider.

Awaking in a strange world where words appear before her eyes, a talking tentacle befriends her, and people are trying to kill her, Nay learns she has the ability to become an Epicurist: one of the special chefs who prepare the magical meals that power the enigmatic Marrow Eaters.

Soon, Nay is working in a remote village, where she wins the hearts—and stomachs—of the locals. But when evil threatens to destroy the place, she’ll have to employ all her wit and newfound skills to survive and save her new friends . . .

The hit LitRPG adventure—with more than 500,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

As a chef..

I’ve been a chef for over 20 years and been listening to audiobooks since I was a kid. I have never run across a story like this. I like that the author seems to know what he is talking about as far as how a kitchen and cooking works. I super appreciate that. I’m looking forward to more of this adventure.

just all around enjoying it

okay, I went into this with the mindset "I guess I'll listen to this to fill the time". here I am with 6 hours left going "oh no, I'm going to finish it today and I already want more!" I am enjoying it and am hopeful the author keeps up the good work.

Mc is an idiot. Mc has no command sense. Mc doesn’t think in any situation

Mc has no command sense. Mc doesn’t think in any situation seems like the Mc is just going with the flow

Great Idea. Needed a bit of work.

The idea behind this book was awesome! I've never read about using any form of chef qualities in a fantasy book so this was unique. I do have a few negatives though:
-Way overuse of the word "said". It was constantly used even if there were only two characters in the scene. It was also used to replace the word "asked". So you would get someone asking a question but it being tied to said.
-It got so annoying with the mentions of the MC's inability to taste because of COVID. I understand saying it every once in a while, especially to brand new characters. But I counted it being mentioned once every chapter for the first 6 chapters. And it kept being shoved in our faces.
-There were some unnecessary sentences. Like the author didn't want a compound sentence to be used. It would have helped with the flow of the story.
-The ending was absolutely rushed. You have so much going on through this 18 hour book and it was all kind of wrapped up in the last hour. I felt there was too much time spent on the extras and not enough. Plus the "main conflict" didn't even feel like a conflict.

However! I did love the idea of an epicurist and how the HUD was explained. It wasn't over the top and even made some of the abilities make sense. Overall, loved the book. I really did. I just had those gripes about it. It wasn't bad enough that I had to stop listening. It kept me on edge.

My two favorite things

This was an unexpected hit. The magic system is unique and well written. The cooking and action were fun and well paced. I can't wait for the next one.
