I liked the Goblin PoV

I liked the Goblin PoV, made everything more interesting. Would have 5 starred it excrpt the unnatural shortness of the book made it so nothing seemed to have as much time and development as it needed. But lots of little things kept it interesting. Characters were a bit canned but could be worse.

Great narration to a fun story

A nice, quick adventure with characters who fit nicely into their tropes. It feels very much like a quest for a D&D game.

The narrator gives a wonderful performance. Each of the numerous characters get their own voice. Ranging from a quick, squeaky halfling woman to a massive and deep voiced hobgoblin.

Ok overall

The story was good. The author brought to life the goblins instead of them being faceless monsters. I did not like the narrator's tone of speaking which sounded like he was reading to grade school children.

best option for rpg fans

it may not be comparable to LotR or anything like it, but it is a great book for fantasy fans. Being one, I liked it very much and I recommend it.

Story needs spirit

A reasonable D&D story but not very engaging. I was not enticed to finish it but others may be. Listen to the sample and see.

Solid D&D Adventure in the Classic TSR Mode

The story is basic, but the adventure sterling as the editorial team capably translates the ideals of a D&D adventure from a module to the printed page with characters afforded some depth and a subterranean mystery. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Decent D&D story but awkward narration

I really enjoyed it but the narrator sounds like he is reading to small children.
