pickWhat happens when your dnd party is TPK‘d but there‘s still a job to do? The NPCs who find your bodies take on your quest.
Four nobodies from Maplebark adopt the adventuring parties roles of rogue, barbarian, wizard, and cleric to prevent the temperamental king from destroying their town, but their lack of adventuring experience actually helps them succeed.
Such a fun, light read for dnd and fantasy nerds.
so-soI really can‘t say much about this book except that it‘s basic. There was nothing that stood out about this book at all. The characters can be found in any D&D roleplaying game and the story could be found in a real D&D module storyline. There was nothing new or exciting that existed, no new spin on an otherwise great classic. This just was your classic entry level fantasy or RPG book.
pickI enjoyed this book so much! It was a lot of fun seeing Non Player Characters react to the actions of "Real World" players in a Dungeons and Dragons type game. The humor and nerdery were also well appreciated. I'm definitely going to have to check out #2.
pickThis was a fun book. I enjoyed it very much. I will be reading the rest of the books sometime next year. 5/5 ⭐s
Since I started reading this I‘ve been comparing the story to #dnd since I used to play it before Covid hit. I‘m astonished that I forgot about the actual players in the book that I had an ‘oh sh!t‘ moment. Also, who goes off on their own adventure when they could have gone to a tournament?! #ebook #kindleunlimited
I needed something different than reading the romance genre, so I decided to #read NPCs,and I got to say this has become my favorite book I‘ve read this year. My favorite character has to be the half-orc barkeep Grumph. #ebooks #kindleunlimited
pickWell this book lasted me all of a long time 😂
I could rave about this book for hours, but I'll keep it as simple as I can 😁
I loved this!!! It was perfect in so many ways, and so far in my wheelhouse it was unreal. I fully plan on forcing everyone in my weekly D&D session to read this, because it will give such an extra layer of amazing to our games!

Just started a new book I've had downloaded as an #AudioBook for a while now that I've finished Across the Nightingale Floor.
I presumed initially that it would be about NPCs from a video game, which would have been cool but it turns out it's about a table top game like Dungeons and Dragons... which I play with a few friends on a Saturday most weeks! Can't wait to see what chaos unfolds, if our game is anything to go by! 😅😂🖤
so-soI was really drawn to the concept of this book but the execution was a bit of a miss for me. I enjoyed following the party of NPCs but I wasn‘t that fond of the players and PCs. I think my brain also broke at the boss battle. But I did like the audiobook! All in all a semi-enjoyable adventure but I don‘t think I‘ll be picking up the sequels.
pick🎧 You might be interested in this book if you‘re interested in Dungeons & Dragons. The book‘s about a group of NPCs that ignore the adventurers & then become adventurers themselves. It‘s like listening to a game. You get a feel for the game in general as you hear terms & descriptions used in these games. I have friends that play DND & due to C19 I don‘t get to hear about their adventures like I used to so this was heartwarming for me! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
First #bookcast2019 post!
Do you like the fantasy shenanigans of TAZ Balance? What about the nods to the 4th wall and the intertwining of the real world and the fantasy? Silliness and fun, yet paired with emotional depth of characters?
Do I have the book for you! Well, series, really.
"Swords, Sorcery, and Stealth" by Drew Hayes, currently at four books, checks all these boxes and has a fantastic narrator to boot!
pickI've so been missing my D&D group from back in Ontario, and this book was perfect for filling the void. Most of the story features the adventures of a band of NPCs (non play characters) but there is some fun interweaving of scenes with a group of table top players. It's basically like listening to a campaign. Love 😍 I immediately bought the second audiobook. Highly recommended for those who love rpgs 😃 #mommyreads #audiobook #givemeaquest
pickThis was an incredibly fun, laugh out loud, book! It managed to poke fun at tabletop RPGs, while still showing respect and affection for the games. A couple fun twists, that I was only able to predict half of, and a fun narrator to boot.
As soon as I finished this on Libby, I immediately got on Audible and bought the whole series. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 #overdrive
"We'll loot the bodies and be on our way." "The words that start every great adventure."
Oh yeah. I'm definitely going to like this book.
This was a really fun audiobook! If you're into lighthearted fantasy (with monster killing, of course!), I'd recommend this! The narrator was great too!

Did anyone else pick up this audiobook when it was on sale through Audible? It's pretty fun, making fun of gamers and exploring what the Non-Player Characters might get up to when the gamers go home. @TobeyTheScavengerMonk might you like this? It's definitely on the light side.
