About this listen

A new world of magic and violence. One crazy starting bonus. Major downside: no thumbs!

Carl was a regular construction foreman. Not the worst, not the best, and definitely not the thinnest. Even so, he didn't deserve that heart attack! He really didn't deserve being reborn into a magic-filled, dog-eat-dog world as a dragon.

To be fair, it’s nice to be at the top of the food chain. Now Carl just needs to learn how magic works, which monsters are safe to eat, and why his hoard is so important to him. Dealing with everything changing is hard enough, but he has enemy dragons incoming, hostile environments, and foes constantly trying to get bragging rights by taking down a dragon.

At the end of the day, Carl needs to learn how to build a life worth living in a world where might makes right.

Not a long review but I really enjoyed it, very different to most litrpg’s being that the mc is a dragon and humans aren’t really a thing. Also loved the bloopers at the end haven’t seen this before but couldn’t stop laughing.

Really good

This is a wonderful tale with a ton of personality.
The main character and his companions all have their own personal agendas and the author isn't afraid of letting allies clash and hash things out, making them feel real.
The story is engaging and draws you in, making you root for the good guys and boo the bad guys...
And the world around the story is elaborate with plenty of things going on outside of the MCs control and sight, yet we see how things change while he is engaged elsewhere, instead of people waiting for him to return to do anything.

Steve is amazing and how his vocal cords aren't shredded after this I don't understand. The variety of voices the characters get is amazing and if the writing didn't make you feel, his performance will bring tears to your eyes, both of sadness and joy

A great tale from a former bard

Not an over-the-top power fantasy, but a more measured re-incarnation (light) lit-rpg with some dungeon building elements.

Main character used to be a middle age-ish construction foremen, giving this a more grounded, practical based view on the re-incarnation genre.

I really enjoyed that, an MC that uses experiences from his working life (rather than a VR or gaming background).

The world building is also decent, with none-standard setting, races, magic and abilities.

The only problems I had were some small omitted details of how some systems worked or if they were unique to the main character (e.g. do rivals have the same map functionality, range and detail of telepathy) and some cases I felt the MC forgot to used some of his abilities.

surprisingly good, some new ideas

It was a really fun listen!
I liked the main character that had to find his bearing in a new world and with a new form.
The fights were good, the development was good, and the narrations was also really good!

DRRRRAGON~

I struggled through for a few hours. The concept basis is awesome but the main character is so cringy and impossible to take seriously. Its like listening to a 45 year old who only watch cheesy westerners explain what he would do if he was a dragon. Very one dimensional.

The least convincing main character ever
