Story
When summoned to a fantastical world and granted powers by a broken System, most freshly minted protagonists would strap on their big-boy boots and get ready for their stats to start climbing. But Fischer isn't like most MCs. In fact, he doesn't want to be a hero at all. Fame? Fortune? Power? He had enough of all that in his old life. Discovering forbidden fishing techniques and petting every cute animal that comes within scritching distance? Now that's a good time.

Story
Pete is a simple man who enjoys a good drink amongst good friends. Not too much to ask, right? Now, he's trapped in a fantasy world far from home, stuck underground and inside the body of a smelly dwarf with fantastic facial hair. The worst part? The swill that the dwarves are falling all over themselves to drink. It's flat, it's watery, and it has the alcohol content of a rancid coconut. Can Pete save the dwarves from their own sour fate, or will he be forever doomed to plink his pickaxe away in hopes that he hits the motherlode?

When Yao Shen, Patriarch of the Heavenly Sky Sect, ascends and regains memories of his past life on Planet Earth, he realizes that he can no longer allow himself to accept the cruel and violent ways of Eliria, the realm of cultivation. So he decides to change it. It was time to found a new sect. One based on the values of honor and equality over senseless violence and discrimination. A sect where all, from the mortal farmer’s son to a sect elder's daughter, were held accountable to the same rules.

After the arrival of the multiversal monopoly BuyMort, life got brutal. All systems were through BuyMort. All currency was through BuyMort. All sales were through BuyMort. You could resist, you could compete, but it didn’t really matter because in the end you used BuyMort—or you perished. BuyMort be praised. But not everyone’s happy with the new system. Some, even, want to see it destroyed. It’s quick. It’s convenient. And it will help people kill you and your family as readily as it will help them sell you knickknacks for a quick mortie.

Pulled from the point of death and thrust into a horde-mode-style survival game, Benny’s odds weren’t looking too great. To make matters worse, an eldritch god… entity… thing named ‘Dave’ tasked him with destroying the very System that now controls his fate. But hey, it's not all bad news.

Vainqueur Knightsbane is your average dragon: A giant, fire-breathing lizard who loves to take naps on his golden hoard, kidnap princesses for fun, and make the life of adventurers miserable. Vainqueur's only pleasure in life is to watch his treasure get bigger, one coin at a time. So when a would-be thief turned unwilling minion tells him about "classes", "levels", and "quests", Vainqueur wonders if maybe, just maybe, he should consider a career change. After all, why bother hunting monsters for free when you can get paid for it?

Publisher's summary
Professional heroes kill and loot deadly monsters every day, but Gorm Ingerson's latest quest will be anything but business as usual.
The adventuring industry drives the economy of Arth, a world much like our own but with more magic and fewer vowels. Monsters' hoards are claimed, bought by corporate interests, and sold off to plunder funds long before the Heroes' Guild actually kills the beasts. Of course, that's a terrible arrangement for the Shadowkin; orcs, goblins, kobolds, and their ilk must apply for to become Noncombatant Paper Carriers (or NPCs) to avoid being killed and looted by heroes.
When Gorm Ingerson, a Dwarven ex-hero with a checkered past, stands up for an undocumented goblin, he inadvertently singles himself out for recruitment by a prophet of the mad goddess to undertake a suicidal quest. But there's more to Gorm's new job than an insane prophecy: Powerful corporations and governments have shown an unusual interest in the quest. If his party of eccentric misfits can stop fighting each other long enough to recover the Elven Marbles, Gorm might be able to turn a bad deal into a golden opportunity.

Story
Mr. Goldson is filthy rich. He’s also callous and cruel and hasn’t got a festive bone in his ancient body. Naturally, he’s due for a holiday haunting. When his business partner, Bolbi Baggs, announces that they’re to be visited by three spirits, Mr. Goldson braces himself for a whirlwind tour of his past, present, and future. Mr. Goldson, however, isn’t human. He’s a Dwarf, and Mr. Baggs is a Halfling, and the adventure that’s about to take them across the enchanted world of Arth is anything but typical.

Story
January 29, 2035. That's the day the comet is scheduled to hit - the big one. Denise and her mother and sister, Iris, have been assigned to a temporary shelter outside their hometown of Amsterdam to wait out the blast, but Iris is nowhere to be found, and at the rate Denise's drug-addicted mother is going, they'll never reach the shelter in time. A last-minute meeting leads them to something better than a temporary shelter - a generation ship scheduled to leave Earth behind to colonize new worlds after the comet hits.

High Fantasy meets Economics- hilarity ensues
Would you listen to Orconomics: A Satire again? Why?
Yes, I absolutely would. I really enjoyed the Pratchett-like mash-up of high fantasy, personal story development, humor and meticulous world-building. Replay value will be high on this, as a) it is genuinely funny without being "comedy haha." b) The economics check out. Orconomics isn't just pithy titling- it's the underpinning and motivating force in this world (and in truth, in every world). c) Despite the fact that the characters are ostensibly D&D player characters rendered into literature, they all delightfully both display and break every trope in the book. They are also refreshingly multidimensional and unpredictable. I can't break down specifics about how and why without giving away major plot points you truly want to have unfold in proper order- so I'll just stop here and endorse with a much vaunted "5 out of 5 elephants."
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
made me laugh out loud numerous times. Had to set down the stuff I was doing while I was listening 'til I could continue.
Any additional comments?
As a card carrying fantasy nerd and classically trained economist, this book scratches multiple sweet spots for me. Bravo sirrah.

Never have I laughed at economics this way.
This book adds humor in smart ways and makes the economic tones make story sence more then just having a gimic to make it interesting it adds so much to already great story.

Hilarious, engaging, and unexpectedly deep
I picked up this book expecting a stock "Bored of the Rings" kind of satire -- which would have been fine by me. Instead, I found myself in a surprisingly well-wrought, funny, and poignant tale, which I mean with no offense at all. When you expect just brainless amusement and end up being sucked in by the characters, the plot, and the humor all at once, it's a cool feeling.
The narrator was pitch-perfect for this tale. He brought each character to life really well, and has a very dynamic range (all of his characters sound distinctly different, I mean). His dry tone was great for the humor.
I don't want to give away any of the plot. I'll just say that if you've ever been heavily involved in RPGs, the way this is written will resonate with you. It's a very good balance of winks and nudges to RPG tropes without bashing you in the face with the "Look how clever I am, you see what I did there?!" hammer. I didn't expect to care as much about the characters as I did. There's comedy, there's strife, there's even some sort of sobering looks at motivation, addiction, friendship, and heroism. It's a shockingly dynamic book.
I wholeheartedly recommend this book and I can't wait for the next.

Makes me want to return to D&D and WOW
I've read a lot of the gaming type series books and this one really stands out. The characters are well rounded and I really starting caring for them and becoming invested. I could see the backgrounds and really enjoyed this book.
One of the things that tells me that this is a good book? I was really sad when it ended and he left me wanting more!

Imaginative and original plot
I loved the satirical take on the standard fantasy story as well as the story telling. Pike provides a fresh take on heros and the infrastructure that would be needed to support them.Doug Tisdale does a good job bringing the characters to live with his reading.

This was one of the best novels I have consumed in quite a while. The author has an excellent sense of humor and the narrator did a fantastic job of bringing the story to life. An effective piece of satire and an overall well developed plot made this one difficult to put down, and I am honestly excited for the sequel!

Fantasy with a hilarious twist
If you love fantasy, you should definitely check out the Orconomics series. I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I started, but I was quickly drawn in to the story of our band of wayward adventures off to right wrongs and save the world, even those who were being dragged along on their adventures against their better judgement ;). The narration is top notch as well. Give it a listen, I think you'll enjoy.

Easy, fun and interesting
The story had a funny edge and some satire, but was also a good story and not just silly. A good fantasy book, especially if you used to read D&D books and got a little tired of the formula they use. I plan on getting book 2 as well.
The narrator grew on me over time as well, and did pretty good voices.
