Summary

Jig the goblin was the runtiest member of an admittedly puny race. Jig was scrawny, so nearsighted as to be almost blind, and had such a poor self-image that when he chose a god to worship, it was one of the forgotten ones - after all, what other sort of god would have him as worshiper? He also had a cowardly fire-spider for a pet, a creature that was likely to set your hair on fire if it got into a panic. Made to stand tunnel watch by the goblin bullies who'd been assigned the job, it was just Jig's luck to be taken captive by a group of adventurers - with the usual complement of a dwarf warrior, a prince out to prove himself, his mad wizard brother, and an elfin thief. Forced to guide this ill-fated party on their search for the Rod of Creation - though Jig had no more idea how to find it than they did - he soon had them stumbling into every peril anyone had ever faced in the fantasy realms. And they hadn't even found the Necromancer or the Dragon yet!

Performed by Nanette Savard, Dylan Lynch, Terence Aselford, Eric Messner, Casie Platt, Thomas Keegan, Richard Rohan, Mort Shelby, Kimberly Gilbert, Danny Gavigan, Michael Glenn, Tim Getman.

Theater of the mind

Rare to find a fantasy adventure book out of the perspective of a goblin, while being pleasantly enjoyable listen with a lot of humour.
That also doesn't depict the Goblin as a "selfish, backstabbing coward". But a rather likable sort, more so than the company around.

I also wanna praise the sound effects, voice acting and the great narration. it really did wonders in allowing you to feel like your watching a live performance, breathing life to the story.
I genuinely felt spoiled for how good quality this was.

I really loved this adaptation

Well adapted. I already loved the books and I found this adaptation very satisfying. The voice actors did a great job and the added sounds created an immersive atmosphere. The only small criticism was that sometimes the transition between some scenes was a bit abrupt. Overall a great listening experience.

Good story but bad narration.

Although Graphic Audio has some really great adaptations, we didn’t get far into this book before stopping. The story is good but the narration is terrible. I recognize the voice actor from other GA titles and she is good but in this, she puts on an atrocious english accent. Weaving in and out of English and American and rolling her r’s for a few sentences then not for a while then back into it again is soooo distracting. It just constantly removes you from the story. I’ve returned this title simply because of the narration.

Fun, but not amazing

If you're looking for a light hearted adventure comedy, you'll probably enjoy it. Had a few funny parts, but I wasn't blown away. The performances were pretty good though. Nothing bad to say really.
