About this listen

How does a one-hit-point goblin become the Dark Lord?

By accident. Bert is a tiny goblin with big dreams. He follows adventurers, and loots the copper they leave behind when they take the real loot. One day, Bert hopes, he'll have enough copper to buy a warg, and finally promote from a one-HP critter to a Warg Rider.

Kit is a typical gamer hoping to enjoy a good story, but her friends are more interested in rules, loot and experience. Kit’s friends Crotchshot, Brakestuff, and the White Necromancer rampage their way across the land desperately seeking the Dark Lord trope, which gives the wielder the power to reshape the world.

When Bert accidentally steals the trope, Kit is forced to make a choice. Should she help her friends, or help a new Dark Lord rise to power?

The world will never be the same. Get ready for The Dark Lord Bert.

A fun story from a master of sci-fan

Despite being absolutely ridiculous and nothing like Magitech Chronicles or Deathless, this was fun and entertaining in pretty much every way; you can't help but feel endeared to Bert on one or more levels. It's also nice to see the story that's occasionally referenced in Fox's bigger works.

Fantasy comedy-satire in its best form.

Lovable characters, saturated with modern references, just the right amount of ridiculousness; Yup. "Dark Lord Bert" will keep you engaged to the end. A good book paired with a stellar narration is what this is. Compare it to the other best satire in the genre, Orconomics.

Adventures laughter tears are you ready to roll?

this is a amazing mixture of great comedy tabletop slang and Accenture this is definitely something that needs to have sequels deathly and 8 book series if not more this author shows a potential that hasn't been seen since Terry Pratchett Discworld series I miss the Discworld series but maybe a small part this author can fill that void
