trips at the finish line

This was a nice story with good pacing and looking to be a slow build harem adventure all the way until about the last hour mark where you get hit by the weirdest curve ball in the side of your head in the form of the cringiest dialogue I've ever listened to in all of haremlit, ever. Like you have a slow burn romance but you turn up the burner to full blast in the last moments? Why?

Andrea Parsneau was excellent as always.

Good start to a series, liked the fighter over the MC soul, the chacters are enjoyable and the story is good. Andrea kills it with the voices and she has become one of my all time favourite narrators.

Good start to what becomes an excellent series

Really enjoyed this book, went into it expecting very little not helped by the kind of uninspiring covers (nice art but doesn't intrigue or lure you in).

The narraration by Andrea is absolutely first class, she's the female version of RC Bray.

The story is interesting covering several pantheons with the mystery of the MCs skills, talents etc & where its going. The earlier books are the weaker from story pov but still very enjoyable the books get better as you go

Narrators grrr

I was reading this title and got it on audio as I like to fall asleep listening to a book. I enjoyed the book but when the narrator couldn’t say Key- an for cian that put me off. Would it have been too hard to google how to say the name? Thankfully I fell asleep before I had to listen to the butchering of other Irish names.

decent narration, no story

I think a more appropriate title for the book would be "Fiona and her cringe slave"

RANT...
The mc is a doormat he is effectively indoctrinated the moment he gets into a new world and simply does not understand how he's being used which is frustrating for the reader.
An example would be where mc attempts to compliment fiona it was obviously a compliment but because of 'dumb culture' it's a insult. a normal person would let this go explain what he did was wrong and why. she does not, she swears she never wants to see him again and some other bull. This is made even worse because the only reason mc is in the village is to learn about the culture as is said in his deal making her a hypocrite and a vile evil human being. of course mc eventually makes amends by swearing to do anything she says effectively except less obvious cause slavery might make this more than a snooze fest.

The worst part of the book though is the lack of story there basically is none. the entire book is effectively trying to sleep with fiona and that's it and I guess some tree chopping but that's about as intresting as watching paint dry so no fun either.

The 'twist' was unrealistic and immature no reason just like a 12 year old decided to change up the genre from romance/erotica to detective/thriller. people general have a reason for slaughtering a entire village they dont just be like today I'm gonna kill everyone I've lived with for a decade.

The only good bit was the meeting with the gods and even that was mostly fueled by the premise the writer had no idea where this was going and its painfully obvious when the most intreasting thing that happens In the book is MC cutting down FOUR trees. Incredible I know.

I think the author included litrpg elements to draw in readers but had no intention of writing a litrpg beyond the bare minimum for amazon to accept it. it is a unethical thing to do but I'm pretty sure the author only cares about sales.

i wont be reading on this writer shows no talent in delivering a story and that's the most important part in fantasy.
