Limitless Seas, Book 2

15 December 2022

It had been some time since I listened to the first book in this series, and even with a comprehensive recap at the beginning of this book, I still found myself struggling to remember everything that had happened. So, after […]

Big Sneaky Barbarian

13 December 2022

Big Sneaky Barbarian, written by Seth McDuffee, at times had me snort-laughing. Embarrassing to admit? Yes. Do I care? No, it was totally worth it. This was a low-stakes romp following an apparently dim-witted human transplanted into another world where

12 December 2022

Kobolds, normally a joke race in any fantasy world, get their time to shine in this sweet progression fantasy by Cale Plamann. Samazzar, or Sam for short, is a freshly hatched Kobold. One of many growing up in a creche

Vigor Mortis: Volume 3

22 November 2022

Honestly, I both enjoyed the heck out of this while being completely irritated. Usually, Podium Audio can be trusted to put out polished works. Yes, the previous books in the series did have a few minor things going wrong, but

Deepwater Dungeon

15 November 2022

I pre-ordered Deepwater Dungeon, written by Ryan Rimmel and Boe Hagen, on the strength of Rimmel’s other series, “Noobtown”, and am regretting my haste a little. Maybe that’s where I went wrong, assuming the humour and writing would be on

The Chosen One

7 November 2022

I honestly had high hopes for this one, as it sounded great. A story told from the perspective of a Non-Player Character (NPC) in a video game world. After being glitched into surviving her death, Qube, the tutorial character, experiences

Gilded Ghost

2 November 2022

So I’m not sure why it took me so long to realise, but The Ripple System books have virtually nothing at stake. Users can respawn, usually holding most of their stuff, so it’s not like dying is a big deal.

The Wraithbone Phoenix

19 October 2022

Safely in the top spot for my favourite books in the Warhammer universe, The Wraithbone Phoenix by Alec Worley diverges from the standard fare of space marines and the multitude of horrors inflicted on the galaxy by countless aliens and

Scamps & Scoundrels

6 October 2022

Scamps & Scoundrels, book one of the Bad Guys series by Eric Ugland went by in a flash. At eleven and a half hours, I got sucked all the way and couldn’t stop listening. As soon as I reached the

Goroth

21 September 2022

Everybody’s favourite murder hobo, former treasure chest-shaped mimic, and hero of the God of Chaos, Boxxy T. Morningwood, returns in a bit of a lacklustre outing for the series. While fun and filled with the humour I’ve come to expect,

(Re)Possessed

20 September 2022

Much like the earlier books in the series, (Re)Possessed (book 4 of the 24/7 Demon Mart series) kicks off and barely pauses for breath between one bonkers thing going awry and the next. Lloyd once again finds strange things are
