There’s work to do… and profit to make.

A fantastic fantasy

The plot and characters are very well thought out. Great performance by the narrator though some of the occasional accents felt overdone. Love how the magic isn't exactly explained but given enough context where you can follow along.

An Intriguingly Beautiful Tale

I was skeptical going in, but this book rapidly made me a believer. I am particularly hard to please on narration. However, the narrator of the story added so very much to a tale already immensely interesting and entertaining. It’s refreshing to stumble upon such a uniquely written fantasy novel. The characters are well defined, the magic system is unlike anything I’ve read before, and the way all of these elements flow together is just plain awesome. I started the book as just a time killer. A story to play in the background as I went about my day. But, the darn thing is so good, I can’t get any work done without stopping to listen! I’m so glad that I found this author, narrator, and of course, this particular book. Already looking forward to the other works from both parties. If you like a great story with the narrator perfectly suited for the feel and flow of said story, do not miss this gem!

what's the price

I love the author and this was a very different take from them. much more serious but still it drew me in. Lots of twists and depth with plenty of action. looking forward to the next episode!

A Fantastic Start to a Series

Let me start by saying that I was gifted a copy of this audiobook by the publisher. Although I did not pay for a copy of this audiobook, I would gladly do so. The MC is likeable without being boringly predictable, confident without being arrogant, and just genuinely fun. I enjoyed all of the varied characters involved and their back stories. Their addition added depth to the world instead of just being generic hero classes filling slots. I would say that the story itself is a great blend of world-building, action, exploration of abilities, and intrigue. The narrator does the story a service through different accents and voices, helping each character to feel separate despite being all voiced by the same person. The narrator did have a little too heavy of an inflection on the MC at first, but seemed to quickly find their niche. Lastly, I feel compelled to mention that use of the term "maidenless" and a joke of a ship being referred to as the "Queen Merica" brings a certain game to mind as subtle nods. Overall, this is a story I would and have recommended to others, and with the second audiobook out (which I have ready to go after I finish this re-listen) there's no better time to jump in.

A good start

I recommend is listening to the sample. My first impression of the narrator was that he has an accent that I didn't like but the more I listened the more I got over how he spoke. I'd also like to say there is almost no lit-rpg aspects in contrast to most of Void Hearld's other works. so no stat windows at all but his class does give him certain strengths. Robin has to experiment to figure out what his powers do. All in all I say this book laid all the groundwork for a great series. There was world building and a steady introduction to how magic interacts with the world and how the heros foes operate and I'd say I'm invested in where the story will go next.

Nope. It sucks

It just doesn’t do anything. They just meet other hero’s that suck, they just need the merchant and that would be interesting but this sucks. The perfect run was good until the third book. But I will not get anymore of this series and not sure if author is for me.

finally not a power fantasy.

good idea and well executed. a post apocalyptic world of magic and sword. Many hundred years have passed but the world is still guided by past conflict

Not bad.

It sets up as buy and sell anything but its more of buy skills and knowlage of how to do things like sword fighting or playing a game without realy knowing how too. Mc just meets other with abilities like can see someones technique and copy all cuse the power is recognizing muscle movements and stances. I forget how many there are with unique powers but the story totaly had me. It was interesting, demons coming and cool powers, it was better than i thought it would be. Definately had some parts of buying and selling.

Quite Enjoyable

Good world building, storytelling, and the author is very good at connecting the dots throughout the story to give it a greater over arching feeling. Look forward to the next book.
