Growth Hero

De: Brent Tyman

Narrado por: Christian J. Gilliland, Hazel Cohen

Alex's life was fairly simple, work during the day and enjoy some sweet RPG's by night. Out of nowhere, he's whisked away to a fantasy world with game-like stats, monsters that drop loot, gorgeous mages, and a Dungeon to explore.

With only the clothes on his back and a single skill bestowed upon him, he has to survive this new world and forge a new life for himself.

And perhaps work on getting a harem while he’s at it.

Authors note: Inspired by light novels, RPG's and mangas. Contains Isekai, light LitRPG/ Gamelit stats, dungeons, magic, and a touch of tropes.

I finally took the plunge and I should’ve taken it earlier

I had looked at this book probably a dozen times and dismissed it due to the description. It’s seemed like just another run of the mill book. I finally listened to this book after I had nothing else to listen to, and I truly enjoyed it.

The absent minded hero and his horny duchesses.

Story - Interesting story line, but I would have loved to stop having everything in the MC life compared to a video game. If someone payed me a dime every time the MC compared the world to a game back home the book would have payed for itself. Also the MC must be wearing his MC badge on his sleeve because without really trying all the girls want him. It is definitely hard to believe the reactions. He doesn't out right OP things so despite his skill which is at least good.

Magic - Doesn't get a lot of explanation on how things work magickly but there is no levels only stats. People can work up stats slowly and get stronger. The MC has an easy Cheat which still works as he still struggle with things.

Narration - both Narrators did a great job.

Danmachi meets FE: Three Houses?

A fun romp with an interesting twist; the hero actually beds the women interested in him.

Granted, these women are hilariously transparent and manipulative, but that actually makes them feel more believable as people, and makes the complete 180 they make feel earned, especially at the close of the book.

The story structure and escalating threats faced by our heroes is certainly a delight to experience, but it’s pretty hard to not draw comparisons to similar stories. I feel this does enough to differentiate itself from the crowd to merit interest and investment in the world being built.

I don’t know if there are plans to release the next two novels as audiobooks, but I would like that to be the case.

Great story and awesome narration

Brent has created a very cool story, it's alot of fun to read. Christian is already one of my favorite narrators, and hazel isn't bad at all. Although every voice she uses sounds 'sexy' because she I rather monotone with it. It does get a bit annoying but it's still entertaining because it gets interrupted by Christians dialogue. Pretty decent

awesome

the book is awesome when I got the book I was hoping for an anime style audiobook something I could jump right into this was more then I could have hoped for the narratives where awesome the write of this book has three more books in a different series I got them too

fun but irritating

It's a good story but this author wrote as if all of the fantasy genre is nothing rpgs and only rpgs was surpisingly irritating to me.

love it no pain no gain

Christian and Hazel is amazing in this book .A game like world hell can't wait for book next book with his two new girlfriends .

A fun isekai

This was a great story of someone looking for family in a new world. It's full of humor, action, and a little ecchiness that I enjoyed from start to finish. Christian and Hazel's voices work very well together too breathe even more life into the story. Can't wait for book 2 on Audible.

Good world building & a story that holds interest

It was a great story with varied characters, a little bit of fantasy isekai and beautiful women who can do Magic. The real kind and the fictional ;).
I also agree with a review I read; shared that they enjoyed the fact the hero actually follows through on the flirting and seduction by acting on real life feeling’s instead of an impractical amount of fan service without any fruits.
No I guess it is counterintuitive to say the story is more realistic due to the harem actually being…uhh consummated?
Just confirm your purchase and enjoy the ride.

Dork ❤️

great one

love this story got the regular book on Kindle and then went ahead and picked up the audible just to see how it worked the two narrators play off each other well the voices match what I kind of imagine the characters would be. can't wait for number two to come out on audible so I can pick it up again and listen to it instead of reading it this time
