À propos de cet audio
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.

Great value for money
I don't know what I was expecting but LOTR meets Terry Pratchett meets The Big Short was not it, and it got me hooked immediately. I laughed a lot, which I was expecting but I was also move and got a bit teary at times. The economics and the politics of this world gave me background anxiety because it's so close to the real world. Fun writing, great characters and absolutely fantastic narration make this a five star book for me. Seriously, the narrator was astounding, the different voices and speech patterns for the different characters were so great, I was absolutely immersed in the story and could imagine the characters and their expressions in my head. I immediately bought the second book in the series and signed up for the email newsletter on the author's website. I can't wait for the third book!

Can’t wait for the next
Great book with plenty of humour and adventure, along with a few surprises that I’m sure you wouldn’t have anticipated

Hilariously cliche
As a fan of fantasy tropes and tabletop RPGs, this story is a critical hit in all the right places. if you like fantasy, are a fan of RPGs, enjoy Prachett novels, you should definitely check this out.
