Goblin Summoner

A Deckbuilding LitRPG

De: Tracy Gregory

Narrado por: Graham Mack

Life and death decided by the draw of a card!

When an accident claims his life, Gareth finds himself reborn on Acamida. Dropped into a world where sorcerers draw magical power from a deck of cards, summoning monsters and flinging spells, Gareth must adapt to having arcane power at his fingertips. It’s just a shame he’s found himself with the weakest cards around - goblins!

Joined by a fallen goddess, a deposed demon king, and surly local, Gareth sets out into Acamida. In a realm where experience points and levels are very real, Gareth must grow stronger if he intends to have his second life last longer than his first. With monsters around every corner and dungeons beneath his feet, Acamida is a dangerous place.

As Gareth finds new cards and grows in power, the rumbles of war stir in the west. If he’s going to survive, Gareth will need to master his deck and find the strength hidden within his goblin allies.

Fun and unique take on magic

This book has an interesting concept that was executed very well. The story is enjoyable and the main character is fun to follow. There were some minor audio problems but otherwise it was a great experience. Would definitely recommend.

AD-VER-SARY or AD-VIS-ORY?

The narrator's weird pronunciation of some common words was extremely distracting for me. Really good story so far though.

Good start to the series

I liked the storyline, but was a little out off by the narration. I don't know ow if it's the editing or the way the narnarrator himself chose to space out the words.

Narration is distracting

The narrator mispronounces several relatively common words and that pulls you from the story a bit. The story is good tho, unique and engaging.

Surprisingly good! Surprising gem

I did not expect to find a gem before the end of 2021 and so was very surprised at the quality here.
Original story, good card mechanics, good world building. Lots of potential for universe expansion.
A few hiccups here and there but very minor and left the story unnaffected.

Slow burn

Within the first few chapters, the book picks up. I purchased the second book before I finished the first one.

5stars

Well done. Well narrated.  will be looking forward to the next from this author. Is worth a listen, give it a try.

Producers didn’t pay attention

There were many and I mean many mispronounced words and switching of names, numbers and just felt like narrator was skipping around the page in places. Not good.

Almost good

I like that the author attempted some fun ideas but I couldn't find myself caring about the characters or their struggles. The narrator also uses the same voice for multiple characters which makes it hard to get invested. Mostly though, I would have liked Gareth, the main character, to be more goblin-like or involve goblins more in the story.

Exuberant

Every witty line gives me joy. the narrative does not linger on any unnecessary details, though re-listening to story provides great foreshadowing. the main draw for new listeners, is the characters. The heroes are delightful.
