Menacing Misfits

Darkthorn Academy, Book 1

De: Robyn Wideman

Narrado por: Vikas Adam

When Jack Vance's grandfather is murdered, his dying words are to get Jack to promise to attend Darkthorn Academy.

Jack doesn't like it, but he'll do what is necessary to honor the man who raised him. But surviving Darkthorn Academy won't be easy. Jack will have to make alliances, learn to harness magic, and face dangerous enemies - both alive and dead. If he's lucky, he might just make it to second year.

Darkthorn Academy is a coming-of-age fantasy adventure with gamelit aspects, including a slightly overpowered MC, a dragon companion, and a team of adventurers. It’s inspired by games like Skyrim, Diablo 2 and Fallout.

arrow

I use to be an adventurer but then I took a arrow in the knee... that made my day lol

amazing!!

Great book for you RPG and MMORPG fans. Vikas Adam is amazing in the narration!!

This was a lot of fun though little predictable.

I enjoyed this it was a lot of fun definitely going to check out the next book.Only thing is I hope it adds a little bit more twist and turns and isn't as predictable. don't get me wrong even though it was a little bit predictable the journey was still fun.

Great storytelling

I think this is nearly as good as any epic fantasy I have ever read. Adventure to forgotten lands here I come!

great story

found this was hesitant on getting it glad I did great book can't wait to read the rest

Seriously.....

Lord scratches.....that's the best you can do.....I could have thought of a hundred better names rather than a name I'd expect from a 7 year old....wtf

RPG-feel in a classic storyline

A group of unlikely misfits join together to defeat their enemies and develop their personal strengths while becoming team. The references to stats gives the reader a D&D style RPG feel. From puns to using names of characters that may make your eyes roll a little “Chef Ramsey” the head chef for the Questers this was a fun distraction.

Awesome

I’m mid 50’s but I love listening to coming of age series. I’ll be listening to all of them and saving them

Epic Story From the Start

At the end of the first book I was angry that I had not downloaded the next one earlier. This book is well written and read. The hero’s journey theme is followed it it is not predictable. I can’t wait to start book 2!!!!

enjoyed the book

I enjoyed this one book very much and since book 2 is not on Audible yet, I cant enjoy that either. I want to know what's next and reading is not much of an option when you have this to do an cannot take the time to sit and read
