Giantlands

Pal-Tee Planet, Book 1

By: Aaron Oster

Narrated by: Travis Baldree

Length: 10 hrs and 5 mins

Publisher's summary

Zundy has always been different. As a pal-tee, a distant cousin to the dwarves, he, and all others of his race, absorb traits from the very first item they touch upon birth. Instead of absorbing the essence of stone, or steel, like most others in his town, Zundy accidentally absorbed those of a beetle. Those who are different are often treated poorly, and for Zundy, this was no exception.

His time in the small town is coming to an end, though. The Great Journey, the time when all pal-tee youths of age set out in search of their race's most valued treasure, is upon them. Beyond his small town, Zundy will discover a world far grander and fantastic than he ever could have imagined.

Travel to the Green Sea, the last know sighting of the Viridian Core will be far from easy. Before he can even lay eyes on the sprawling ocean, Zundy will first need to pass through the Giantlands, and with powerful Guardians blocking his path, the task seems impossible. Zundy was never one to give up and quit though, and to him, there is no greater thrill than facing a challenge and coming out the victor.

Warning: This book contains GameLit elements, such as stats sheets, a form of leveling and experience gain.

Its good

Travis is has good has always and him narrating pushed me to give this a try and didn't regret it once the story is over.

worth it

It was a good book a coming of age story with a twist. I can not wait for book 2 and more good book

Absolutely amazing!

Loved this book a wonderful non human mc! I can’t wait for the next book! I can’t wait till he faces off against the first Guardian! If your on the edge about buying this book look no further bye it love it read it!

Great book!

I don't normally write reviews but I throughly enjoyed this one. Most game books have foul language and sexually scenes but this kept it teen friendly. I liked all the characters. The MC wasn't overpowered and things weren't too easy for him.

Great series but...

I reached out to the author and was informed that the series has been discontinued! I would advise not getting vested in the story since you won't know how it ends. Personally my favorite work so far!

I enjoyed it!

A pretty cool idea I really enjoyed reading it and a couple of plot twists I did not see coming!

This book really is my jam!

Wow what a fantastic addition to the game-lit genre! And Giantlands absolutely "shows to go ya" that you can't judge a book by it's cover (a mistake that I'm often guilty of!) Travis Baldree had stated that he couldn't stop grinning while he was working on it, so with that recommendation, I downloaded the book and found that it really was my buttered and jammed toast!
We meet Zundy at the moment of birth; when due to a freak accident he's imbued with the strength of a horned dung beetle (LOL), and starts out life with zero luck and negative charisma points. Which as you can guess isn't the best way to start your life adventure, or gaming quest!
I immediately fell in love with Zundy, this plot, and the action-filled, character-driven story!
Trust in Travis and grab the book! You'll be glad you did!
