True Smithing

True Smithing, Book 1

By: Jared Mandani

Narrated by: Henry W Kramer

Angus Bjornson only ever wanted to do one thing: to continue crafting exquisite weapons and pieces of armor for his loyal customers. Unfortunately, after one accident too many that leaves the old blacksmith completely disabled, it would seem he has no other choice but to hang up his hammer.

However, that would be underestimating the stubbornness of the self-made man. Fearing he's not going to stop until he ends up dead in his forge, Angus' children offer him a virtual rig that connects to Imperium Games' many universes.

After choosing a fantasy-based world called Alterwelt, Angus - now known as Hephaestus - quickly learns that he can make use of his lifetime of experience by disabling the auto function and playing on manual. His skills allow him to create unique items that beat everything sold on the market. But Hephaestus has a long way to go before he can afford his own in-game forge. Moreover, he only ever learned to work with steel while here he has access to metals as strange and exotic as azuraneum, veridium, orichalcum....

Meh

Not a great book gave it a chance but for real by great. Not worth a credit.

this is the second one I've rated 5 stars

Notable enjoyable knowledgeable everything you'd love about an Audio book The narrator can keep you enjoy and the knowledge that you can find is not something you'd expect in such a thrilling book

Great story

Very good on the smithing process and the level of thought throughout the book.

Very good story

I loved the story. However the reader read the story too fast. Made the short book even shorter.

love it

I really liked this book. I love rpg's and crafting. I don't think I'll get the 2nd tho due to reading so many reviews on it 😐
