Fun

Revisado: 01-22-25

The narrator was awesome! I enjoyed the plot progression and the non-gruesome fighting (certainly violent, but not disturbing). The characters were well developed and a lot of fun. There were a few laugh out loud moments and now I’ll never look at goats without thinking of Henry.

Adventure + cooking = 🤩

Revisado: 01-14-25

I’d give this series a solid pg-13 rating for language and violence. (It is so hard to find a clean LitRPG, I was glad to run into this one.) Peter Berkrot did an amazing job narrating this series. Actus had a fun cast of characters and a solid plot line full of adventure. The cooking was never out of place in the story and gave me great dinner ideas. I’d recommend this series for anyone looking for great adventure or if you enjoy those competitive cooking shows, or both!

It was a relaxing listen

I’m surprised how far virtual voice has come. This one was one of the best I’ve heard. Yes, pronunciations and inflections are occasionally off, but I didn’t find them distracting.
I enjoyed that Elizabeth and Darcy met on more equal footing. Because of her new wealth and experiences Lizzie is better able to handle Mr. Darcy’s personality.

Seriously?!?!

Revisado: 07-16-24

For the 1st half of the book, suspending belief and enjoying the story for itself was fine. BUT! Good heavens! The last half you’d have to suspend credibility as well as belief in order to enjoy it. The characters are not in (traditional) character and the rules of society (as they were then) are nowhere to be found. The thing that bugs me most is that Mr. And Miss Darcy let Caroline Bingley run their lives and Elizabeth, despite knowing Caroline is a lying harpy, believes her!!! Gah! Yeah…not my favorite fanfiction.

Loved the character background short stories!

Fred Burman was so fun to listen to! Estrella’s stories and action are well crafted. I’ve enjoyed the other books in this series and look forward to the next one.
I’d rate this pg-13 for (the elf’s) language and general (not extensive/detailed) descriptions of gore. These are the only things keeping me from sharing these stories with my kids, who would enjoy Timmy and Katie.

Loved it!

The narrator was AWESOME! Berman brought the characters to life and poured energy into the narration. Estrella’s characters and plot (it is an action based story so maybe the action was well plotted 🤔) were well developed. The snarky tone of the story really appealed to me. I’d rate this at Teen for language and gore.

I loved it!

Revisado: 06-24-23

You know a story is good when you’re sad it is over. I took a chance on this book because it was in my ‘suggestions for you’ list. It was right on the money! I would categorize this story as Slice of Life. It had a pinch of fantasy and a smidge of tension. It was perfect. I’d rate it at PG-13 for language early on. I loved the main characters and the villain did an excellent job of being the villain. If you are looking for high adventure at super speed this isn’t the right book…but I’d recommend it anyway.
The narrator did a good job bringing this story to life. No annoying cringy voices to be found here.

Lots of short stories

Revisado: 02-13-23

I enjoyed the well written short stories, though they seemed skewed in favor of more modern alternates than spins of the original for my taste.

Delightfully irreverent

Revisado: 01-07-23

The narrator was great, though I didn’t agree with how the cat was portrayed (narrative and storyline. Oh well.)
I enjoyed the ‘Slice of life’ vibe the story had, though with plenty of other elements to spice it up.
I bought it because I enjoyed the sample and don’t regret the purchase. Hopefully the next in the series lives up to the first book.

Interesting

I’m not a history anything, but the author crafted the information in an interesting way. The narrator was easy to listen to.
