Critical Role: Vox Machina - Kith & Kin

De: Marieke Nijkamp

Narrado por: Laura Bailey, Robbie Daymond, Liam O'Brien

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Explore the past of Critical Role’s daring half-elf twins, Vex’ahlia and Vax’ildan, in this original prequel novel to their adventures with Vox Machina.

Vex and Vax have always been outsiders. A harsh childhood in the elite elven city of Syngorn quickly taught them not to rely on others. Now, freed from the expectations of their exacting father and the scornful eyes of Syngorn’s elves, the cunning hunter and the conning thief have made their own way in the world of Exandria.

The twins have traveled far and experienced great hardship. But with the help of Vex’s quick wit and Vax’s quicker dagger, they’ve always kept ahead of trouble. Now, unknown perils await them in the bustling city of Westruun, where the twins become entangled in a web spun by the thieves’ guild known to many as the Clasp. Trapped by a hasty deal, Vex and Vax (along with Vex’s faithful bear companion, Trinket) set out into the wilds to fulfill their debt to the infamous crime syndicate.

As the situation grows more complicated than they ever could have imagined, for the first time Vex and Vax find themselves on opposite sides of a conflict that threatens the home they have carried with each other for years.

Written by #1 New York Times bestselling author Marieke Nijkamp, Critical Role: Vox Machina—Kith & Kin follows a brand-new adventure that delves into the twins’ unexplored history, and returns to some of the iconic moments that forged Vox Machina’s most unbreakable bond.

Sooo no one told me ambrosia came in audio format.

Remember that day when critical roll took over the audiobook world...me too, good times..
everything about this was stunningly perfect! From story to characters to VO and narration. Amazing!

Such Talent

Big Critical Role fan over here, screaming to the high heavens to get this book in audio format!!!!

#lore

I loved all the backstory and lore. The story was well written. Robbie does an amazing job too!

<3 Robbie Daymond, <3 CR

Robbie did an amazing job bringing the voices of Taldorei to life, and the story was great. I haven't seen CR campaign 1, but I may we'll watch it now to get more of Vex and Vax in my life.

This is a great book even for non-CR fans

This book does a great job of exploring the history of a portion of the Critical Role Campaign 1 characters without requiring you to know anything about those characters beforehand. The book is very approachable and the voice acting and narration are a huge treat. I highly recommend this book to anyone that enjoys a good Fantasy story.

a work of art

I absolutely loved this. I feel bad for all the people who baught the book and read it rather than hear Laura and Liam give life to their characters once more. I could hardly stop listening.

Live up to ever but of the hype!

Given Robbie’s flawless narration alongside Laura and Liam’s wonderfully reprised roles with character they are so intimate with at this point. Mareike brings an excellent story that Critters and fantasy readers alike will love. This performance brings the book to life. Hope they make more.

Great edition to the CR lineup

Robbie killed it as the narrator I would like to have single stories from the rest of Vox Machina definitely a Grog story

For fans of the show.

Robbie is a great narrator but made me chuckle once or twice for his pronunciation of a word not in common use. Story was great and well written for the fan who just wanted some more from beloved characters. Interesting plot and enjoyable to listen to the story unfold, even if some of the themes were a little heavy handed. Enjoyable, will recommend and keep my eyes peeled for other offerings from the author.

wonderful voicing, narration, and story

The story was exciting and suspenseful! So many of the characters were complex and multifaceted and there were many times you couldn't be sure what would happen next.

The narration was wonderful and Robbie's voicing of the different characters was amazing; each voice was distinct enough that you could tell which character was speaking. It was easy to forget that one person was doing all the voices, aside from Vex and Vax. Liam and Laura's vocal performance was also fantastic!
