Really enjoying this story 😊 thank you Mr Smith

this is for f 12 years olds !! pffft...!

2:13:40 or so -- ok look if this doesn't get any depth to the writing or characters soon, I honestly don't know what I'm supposed to appreciate here. This is about as soft as cookie dough, and patters about in cookie cutter tropes without a speck of identity of its own. So far, this is the most shallow YA coming-of-age "I'm a *special* wizard?" cheesefest I've endured. Does the writing ever take a single risk? I don't want to spend a ton of hours on hoping it stops being the shallow skim it's started as. It's bordering on banal. Yeah, 2:15:00 is as far as I can stomach. This is an outline of a story that spends the whole time treating every speck of internal monologue and dialogue as a round hole to jam the square pegs of plot and development into. It flows like drunk regurgitation before the pizza is even totally wet. Just chunks of "story" in an upchuck-flood of drab settings and forcefully bland characterization. I invite the author to stop writing and go read something.

Way too slow.

Idk about this one yet, I hope I can get into it.

Redundant and over explained as if a story for 2 year olds. Second time I tried to listen. Not happening

These books are well written and very engaging. I'm curious about other works the author has completed.

Just finished, love this story. I've powered through the first 2 in 2 days 😁

Appreciate an author posting his books online. Just started this one. Been popping up on my videos for a while. Lets see what i learn

Personally I find some nights rather difficult to fall asleep. Struggling on the road to becoming a proper adult who handles themselves correctly and these are a great comfort and apart of my nightly routine for now, thank you kindly for your great work!

been hooked since book 1! more like these please.

Sad I am halfway done with the last one.... I don't know how you're gonna wrap all this up in 3.5 hrs but, damn..... It's been good. Thank you.

Great story, loved all of it. You know it's a good one when you finish and find yourself missing the characters.

❤

Ignore the moaning critics I really enjoyed it and thanks for uploading it 👍

🎉

😊

🎉 its good

Thank you sir

Awesome thanks 👍

I listened to this before and it seems to have way more commercials now. I can't do it. I want to listen to your book, not advertising.

I'm listening to the series again. The foreshadowing is incredible! It will be so cool hearing it again now that I know.

Ulf is goated

Underrated af i can't believe these dont have more views. Excellent writing and a great reader as well. I bitched about the ads before but the author seems to have fixed them which i am very appreciative of. I will be purchasing physical copies to help support your work!!

At 4:11:11 it cuts out mid sentence then jumps to chapter 20? Hope I didn't miss anything important.

Wonderful ! the atmosphere is so warm🧙‍♂️ somehow i can picture this story happening in the world of the elder Scrolls oblivion

Sounds like you'll be a good story. I don't like it narrated. I would rather have the people actually talking instead of a neurator. Thank you

Seems like a nice story. Just started. But honestly with the extreme monetization having 2 minute ads every 2 minutes I highly doubt I'll have the resolve to finish it.

I've heard this three times now: "leave this one with me." It's a figure of speech, "leave this one TO me" is how it is said

Just listened to the whole book yesterday at work, both for my own enjoyment and some light research into the "noblebright" sub-genre. First the good: I liked the narrator and think he did a great job adding a certain medieval feel to everything. I liked the presence of sincere (rather than snarky) characters throughout, who actually cared about and didn't make light of things. I also very much appreciated the strong male mentor figures, who truly helped turn our young bright-eyed protagonist into a more wise and strong hero by the end. I also liked the simple presentation of a world where men and women are not squabbling over gender roles, but have simply found their respective places of influence and get on with civilization. I also enjoyed seeing the boy's loving father go with him, on his quest. Though for some reason I can't remember if he left or got killed off. I also liked the idea of the boy's own grandfather being the one who saved everyone, and somehow passing his abilities down through the generations. Now for the constructive criticisms: I personally did not find there to be much rising action, and I kept waiting for the twist or for something to go horribly wrong that would put our characters in ongoing danger. What I got instead was essentially a string of scenes where they have to fight different types and numbers of fantasy enemies, and everything basically drops back to business as usual afterwards. I wanted more tension both between characters we meet and the world around them, but instead, it all feels like a pretty low-key fantasy journey up until the part on the boat. There were also a lot of scenes that were essentially info dumps about the magic system, which I wouldn't have minded if the magic didn't feel like a lighter and much easier version of Wheel of Time's "One Power." I was also surprised to see the book end so abruptly like that. Yes, there are more books after this, available for free (Thank you!), but I would've liked to see a stronger ending than that to draw us further in. I do suspect with (spoilers) the wise mentor now put of the picture, that there will be more tension in book 2. We'll see.

other than "(insert name) said".... so many times really good story.

Oh my god is this a real audio book written by a real human being read by a real human being. SWEET!

starting now. hoping it’s good and that I can find the rest of this series 😮

Another good book similar to this is wizard's first rule there is about 15 other books with it and it's based off the sword of truth series

Good story too many commercials too often!!!
