À propos de cet audio

When Jack Vance's grandfather is murdered, his dying words are to get Jack to promise to attend Darkthorn Academy.

Jack doesn't like it, but he'll do what is necessary to honor the man who raised him. But surviving Darkthorn Academy won't be easy. Jack will have to make alliances, learn to harness magic, and face dangerous enemies - both alive and dead. If he's lucky, he might just make it to second year.

Darkthorn Academy is a coming-of-age fantasy adventure with gamelit aspects, including a slightly overpowered MC, a dragon companion, and a team of adventurers. It’s inspired by games like Skyrim, Diablo 2 and Fallout.

Fantastic. I can't believe there aren't more reviews on this one. Really solid story with hints of a little bit of everything. Crafting, adventuring, looting, mana system and progression, all without droning on or getting all lewd and weird.

YESSSSS

Loved the story line, a very good job on the game lit not too ”statsy" the reader does a good job on the characters the main females are harder to tell apart.

Amazing!

Very PG. Light on stats. I'd say it's suitable for ages 10 and up. MC is a good role model. This series just has all my favorite elements packed in and it still manages to flow nicely. You don't get bogged down with overdone emotional content or other annoying traits. Progression is steady, comfortable and fun. Not dark. Secondary dramaless romance. Contains elements of cultivation, town building and overcoming racial prejudice.

Great Introduction to LitRPG

turned into someone what of a litrpg, don't know if that was in the description of the book but I'm all for it. If you like quantifiable ranking system like me you'll love this book. 10/10 would recommend

GREAT

I'm a little ignorant of the writers background, I won't pretend as if I know but, the writing, in my opinion, could've been much better. I'll avoid spoilers for this review for anybody thinking about buying the book.

I like the story itself, more the concept than anything, but I feel like a lot is rushed, major things that could've been in more detail that would've expanded on the whole story and the characters and character development, especially at the start.

Other things is that some things that happened felt as if it wasn't thought through properly, as if the writer was writing the book and suddenly decided to add something minor or major that drastically changes things somehow for the better.

Overall I still like the book and I'll still get the second one and listen to it but it's quite a few flaws in my opinion that sort of put me off as to wanting to listen to it more. If you like this type of book, please feel free to listen to it, especially if it only costs a credit or so.

Bit of a spoiler at the end here so be warned



I felt throughout the story, nothing TRULY bad could happen to the main characters, they all had the thickest plot armor, no matter how bad something may seem, they profit from it like crazy and I feel it takes away a lot of the suspense of intense moments.

It's good but the writing could be better

Good for most ages, NO XXX scenes or profanity. Very intereetsed going to school story, with quests, treasure hunting and learning defence, fighting and magic. It’s definitely an underdog story.
Listened with my kids. Will purchase the next one for sure!

Great Read with a fun, adventure story.

I have listened to the first 3 books in this series and have come to the realization that I enjoy the book but feel the narrator misses the mark. The book borrows ideas from several similar series' to this one but makes them their own in an entertaining way. I do feel it's worth mentioning that the narrator misses the mark with how the characters present themselves. A multi century dragon somehow sounds like an old lady while some of the main characters don't always seem to reflect what the author was trying to present in Narration. Overall still an enjoyable listen but could be better with different narration.

Good Story. Ok Narration.

The story starts with a very flat "racism is bad", "boy is bullied", "why can't everyone be nice" arc, and it doesn't get more nuanced or interesting than that.
Sometimes a great narrator can save a story like this, but this is some of the most stilted and off-pace narration I've heard. It's hard to follow or engage because the pauses are so long and inconsistent, that there's really not much flow.

Flat writing and stilted narration

really enjoy the book great story but the author or the performer needs to stop saying Jack said or XXX said it's every other sentence and it's ruining the experience..

Great book, Jack said
