One Flew over the Dragon's Nest: An Isekai LitRPG

The Amatherean Tales, Book 1

De: Bosloe

Narrado por: Rebecca Woods

In this portal fantasy, an accountant reincarnated as a fae assassin must battle, barter, and grind to survive in a world filled with magical dangers.

When forensic accountant SJ is crushed by a rogue tree on her way home from the local pub, her death is as absurd as it is abrupt. But fate has a twisted sense of humour: instead of being sentenced to eternal oblivion, SJ's reborn in Amathera—a vibrant fantasy landscape full of magic, monsters, and a game-like System that really wishes she hadn't read the fine print.

Armed with her sassy and overly sarcastic AI companion, Dave, and the questionable skills of a fae assassin, SJ is thrust into this mystical new world. But there's one problem: she never agreed to the terms and conditions, and now she's the one person operating completely free of the System's rules. Drawing the attention of local gods, dragons, and everything in between, she's destined to become an Amatherean celebrity.

With oddities such as high-level enemies and unique gear drops at every turn, finding her footing will be no easy task in this place where reputation matters. SJ will need Dave's guidance if she wants to level up and survive the challenges thrown her way. Only then can she help the inhabitants of her quaint starter town of Killic and begin to uncover the complex mysteries of Amathera.

And as outside pressures mount, SJ's starting to realize her death was only the first glitch in the System . . .

The first volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series—with more than 500,000 views on Royal Road—now available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook!

I can't listen to Dave anymore

I tried to stick it out and I know Dave is written to be annoying but the author did a bit too good of a job of it. an hour in and I skipped ahead ten chapters to see if Dave was still around, he was, so I think I'll have to give up.

I gave it 5 stars because it's technically what the author intended and is well written as such. Just personally I can't stand the annoying AI. everything else is great.

I hit play and didnt want to stop

Bosloe came out in his debut novel and crushed it. SJ is such a beautiful written and developed female lead character. Her charm and witty sarcasm are her highlight, that shines through her approach to each situation that comes before her. Dave her Ai assistant is nothing short than an excellent compliment to the entire story. Dave is a clear inspiration from Skippy from the SciFi hit Expeditionary Force. SJ and Dave's connection is the foundation of this comic filled fantasy adventure. Bosloe had a vision for this story and build a strong foundation. A creative approach as a FAE Assassin, clever, new, refreshing. This was my first full noval where Rebecca Woods took the lead, and she was nothing short of stunning. Her range was impressive, her care of the characters and approach was perfect. OFOTDN is a perfect addition to my bookshelf and a series I will happily be continuing. Highly recommend.

Fun story

A fun story with some banter. It doesn't get to be super suspenseful so it's good for a more relaxing listen. Looking forward to the next one.

Great start

I really enjoyed this book. Picked it up on a recommendation and now cannot wait for the next.

Amazing start to a series!

Wow, I read this one on Royal Road and loved it then, but now it's perfection.

The characters are so well written and thought out. Yes, Dave is a jerk in the beginning, but he grows so much as a character and his friendship with SJ evolves into something really special. SJ's character is one of my favorites, I love her care for all of the other character, while still being a strong force to be reckoned with. You feel for all of the characters, even the secondary ones.

Loved the setting of the starter town, and the adventures SJ goes on. The descriptions are gorgeous, you feel like you're right there with her adventuring. There are scenes that will make you laugh, cheer for the good guys, and maybe even shed a tear.

Bosloe did an amazing job writing this book. The whole story is so well done, I cannot wait to see where the next book takes us on SJ's journey.

Isekai adventure meets slice of life

This is a great story about an Isekai'd forensic accountant that mixes adventure and slice of life elements perfectly.

the MC never feels OP and makes and learns from plenty of mistakes. there is good laughs and danger and you feel like there's stakes involved.

Rebecca Woods gives a great narration and makes the characters come alive.
all in all great story and I'm excited for the next audiobook

can I have the next book please!

great story, action packed and good character growth. Has lots going on and good humor

Everything

I mean everything, they threw it all at you and to think it all took place within a month! Who knows what will happen in a year’s time.

I want more

I already wrote a longer review for the Kindle version but I stand by it after finishing this version. I want more so bad; I love the development of the world and it's characters.

very well done

narration was great as expected from Rebecca Woods, story was surprisingly original, the reincarnatiln but may now be but everything else is unique and seems well thought out. it was a great read overall.
