The Cardsmith, Book 1

Irwin's Journey: The Cardsmith

De: John Carrarn

Narrado por: Dustin Naylor, Jacqueline McQueen

The young, sickly Irwin has seen nothing but bad luck in his short life. When his brother finally returns with a magical card for him, his luck is about to change. But will it change for the better? Irwin is sent off together with a group of youths to placate a group of sorcerers. With just the weird utility card gifted by his brother, he can only pray to stay alive long enough.

Little does he know that this is the start of an epic journey that will take him across his world and many others, gathering friends, enemies, and power as he does.

This series falls into the Progression Fantasy and Gamelit categories, but it also has many elements commonly associated with crafting and LitRPG stories.

I really like this book however

I really enjoyed this book but like that one chick the coward the voice of the voice actor used to whispery wimpery high pitch voice graded on my ears so bad I almost stopped listening to the book but other than that I really like the book and I can't wait for book two to come out

Great story, original card and crafting styles

love this series! It drags you in from the beginning and keeps you there with the storyline. Have read all 3 books and listened to this one many times, can't wait for the others to come out on audible as well!

The best card litrpg by a mile

Used to be books 1&2 of all the skills but this definitely takes the crown. There have been so many poor takes on this subgenera. Also super rare for an author to be brave enough to actually kill of characters in the mcs group. I feel like i haven’t ever seen that in any of these card based ones. Really good and will be waiting on the next one.

Definitely worth a credit.

I love the plot the character building the story has layers like an onion. People you can’t help with root, for I can’t wait to start book 2 keep them coming.

Fun growth and edge of your seat story

Starting this book, I was a bit nervous. After finishing it I am hooked! Please give us book 2 asap! Irwin’s journey I’m all in!
I need to know what happens! This is soo good!
