Days of High Adventure

De: Elliott Kay

Narrado por: Tess Irondale

Gaming with friends offered what Amanda missed in her dreary college life: friendship and excitement, the thrill of combat for a good cause, and the chance to be a hero. Neither Amanda nor her friend, Eric, ever expected to face the suddenly real world of their fantasy adventures. But when a careless joke draws the ire of a dark wizard, both must rise to the challenge.

Leveling up has never been so hard...or felt so good.

Good fun but missing the fluff

The book could have been fleshed out a bit more, it just seemed rushed. The narrator was perfect for this.

Not bad, not good

If you could sum up Days of High Adventure in three words, what would they be?

fresh, predictable, swift

What do you think your next listen will be?

something more "deep"

What does Tess Irondale bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

great performance, more lively than if read by myself

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes, but also because it is only 3 hours long

This was okay, but..

First off, Tess Irondake is amazing! The story was just okay for me. Not bad but not great.

Totally fun romp!

Grabbed this audiobook on a random sale. Short but sweet fantasy romp, filled to the brim with silly tropes, and totally right up my alley. Sometimes, you just wanna eat cake. Sometimes, you just want to hop into a fantasy world, meet fantasy babes, fight wizards, and high-five your inner teenage self. I will absolutely check out more from Elliot Kay. Great and engaging narration by Tess Irondale as well. One small note: The accent Irondale used for Fallon at times reminded me of Borat (No offense, Ms. Irondale). Made me chuckle a couple times, but it didn't take me out of the story.

More Rollicking Adventure

Elliott Kay delivers again! Ms. Irondale is very consistent and very skilled at bringing the characters to voice.

Short and fun

The story is short but packed with fun and doesn't take itself too seriously. There is plenty of sex and violence that fits well into the narrative. I hope there will be more like it.

Too short :-/

I wish it were longer as its got a fun premise but like this review, it's not.

Ok

Very slow to start, the second half of the book is a lot more fun than the first.

I liked it

I was a bit hesitant about the short duration, but I was pleasantly surprised about the amount that was crammed in those hours. Good narration too.

Story is very short. Here are more words

okay it's a really good story it starts well lots of good sex and this installment was really short.
