Theft of Decks

Theft of Decks, Book 1

De: Lars Machmüller

Narrado por: Vikas Adam

When the rich hog all the magical cards? Time to use that five-finger discount!

Life on the Waves isn't easy. Especially if you're a pickpocket with no education, no prospects, and no future.

For Chase and his crew of low-lives, there is one real option. If they want a path out of poverty, they will have to unlock access to the magical card system that will change their lives for the better.

Of course, nothing's free in life. And nobody higher up the chain is going to give them a hand up. But what they might lack in education, riches, and, let's face it, hygiene, they have in determination.

Sure, they're facing established powers, churches, and age-old prejudices. That just means it's time to get to work. If the Lightborn won't share and play nice?

Sometimes the only way to get dealt a better hand is to steal the whole damn deck!

Slow, but impressive.

The story takes time to really get going, the situations are more drama, but the stakes are there. Its not an all that heavy action based book, but the story can get kinda dark at times. Its almost like the story is missing something catchy, but the story is of a group of friends sticking together trying to survive. Not an all out action, murderhobo killing spree. Ill check out the next book see how it goes.

I can’t wait for more

I loved the narration in the narration of the main story. There is a balance to the story and it’s high risk and reward. It’s keeping me interested and the conversation with the characters also has me laughing. I love a book that has me laughing along with the characters. I found myself very interested with the mysteries of the tome and how it will affect the journey to come.

slow burn

character set up is slow and a little boring, but once they get their cards story does pick up.

The is the slowest start to a series I have ever read.

I have 14 hours left to go and am struggling to keep listening. The story is decent, but I feel like I was lied to about what the series is about at this point.

great performance of a stand out litrpg

I really enjoyed how the abilities don't trivialize weapons or armor, equipment still matters and not because ut gives stat increases.
