About this listen

Legends speak of wizards with the power to rival Gods....

To Hump, it’s just a story. Apprenticed to a wandering wizard, he grew up on the road, following the coin on whatever quest it took them. He always believed his master was just an ordinary hedge wizard, until the old man suddenly died, and his book of spells bound to Hump’s soul.

Knowing no other life, Hump takes up his master’s staff and heads out alone into a world of dungeons and monsters. Scorned by the gods, wizards can trust only their own wit and skill to survive.

Lacking the godly gifts and grand ideals of the Chosen few, Hump fights for something else. If he wants to eat, he needs to work. And with a new Dungeon opening in Bledsbury, where better for a young hedge wizard to earn some coin?

So begins the path of The Wanderer. The White Flame. The Hedge Wizard.

Experience the start of a Progression Fantasy LitRPG Series about a working-class wizard out to forge his own path and prove that one does not have to be Chosen to do great deeds.

About the Series: Multiple magic systems, spells stolen from the gods, and an undefined path of progression, The Hedge Wizard brings a realism-focused spin to GameLit/LitRPG. Explore a world of long forgotten legends, where the Gods now reign and monsters roam.

there is a real feel of progression to the characters. Not just in person way but an interesting expression of level of power. It gives this series a wonderful headroom for new stories and avenues as we follow along the path with the traveling wizard

litrpg is new to me

Great narration and enjoyable listen. The story was engaging and kept you wanting more.
The action scenes can get pretty long for better or worse, depending on your preference. Overall would definitely recommend to anyone whose a fan of the genre

Action-Packed and Entertaining

so first off let me say I love anything narrated by Tim Gerard Butler. He's been the voice of Ryira forever. in the early part of the book, the interactions between hump and Bud are very similar to Royce and Hadrian and with Tim Gerard Butler's voice, it makes it very easy to slide into the book.

I kind of got out of RPG lit a few years ago because they used to go through these weird machinations to say how the guy got into a video game that would actually kill him in real life. it got to be stupid. in this book. they don't do that. the world is the world. it just happens to have the mechanics of an RPG. the baddies are bad, the goodies are good, overall I recommend

decent story. reasonable humor

-ADDING THIS AFTER LISTENING TO BOOK 2 AND 3: book one was good, books 2 and 3 are WAY BETTER, this series gets better as it goes-
Narrator has a good voice, book was a fun fantasy adventure, not a LitRPG so I don’t know why that label is on this book, but it didn’t need to be for it to be fun and a good time. I was quite taken with the hedge wizards ways of magic and alchemy and am looking forward to more in book 2.

Quite enjoyable

A great tale, good supporting cast, one of the best narrators in the business. Onto book 2!

Also very grateful to have a LITRPG that doesn’t have 100 breaks to tell the reader all the stats being upgraded all the time. Well done!

Great first book!
