The Calamitous Bob

By: Alex Gilbert

Narrated by: Laurie Catherine Winkel, Gary Furlong, Jeff Hays

Ah, Nyil, with its magic, its monsters, and its petty gods. A divine spat leaves French medic Viv stranded in the middle of an arcane disaster zone crawling with undead horrors. Thankfully, there are strange allies to be found, not least the mysterious interface that helps humans survive in this merciless world.

Viv will have to progress fast to survive this calamity and find civilisation. She will also need a bit of luck. Unless, of course, she becomes the calamity herself. After all, luck is such a fickle thing.

Great first book

Great story with a fascinating world and fun characters. Amazing job with the narrator, from the evil robot, to having proper French pronunciation.

great entertaining story

really enjoyed the book for the story and the performance was quite well done also

Can’t wait for more!

This was an exciting read! Bob is a pretty unique character and the apocalyptic world is solid! Hope the more comes out before the end of the year.

Theatrical performances with solid laughs

This is an amazing series, and I finished it in a day. I'm chomping at the bit for the rest of the series to be ready as audiobooks

Awesome narration to fit an awesome series

I've been reading and following Calamitous Bob for a long time on Royal Road and through the kindle book releases. Each time, I would look and see that there were no plans for an audiobook adaption, and it made me sad because I thought this series would be incredible if someone took on the project.

I am excited to be proven correct! The multiple narrators do an excellent job of capturing tone and style, with Laurie's constant narration serving as the perfect backbone to the story. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fun story, with a side of war crimes. I am eagerly awaiting the next audiobook release!
