Summary

Selected as one of Audible's best audiobooks of 2021

Jason wakes up in a mysterious world of magic and monsters.

It’s not easy making the career jump from office-supplies-store middle manager to heroic interdimensional adventurer. At least, Jason tries to be heroic, but it's hard to be good when all your powers are evil.

He’ll face off against cannibals, cultists, wizards, monsters...and that’s just on the first day. He’s going to need courage, he’s going to need wit, and he’s going to need some magic powers of his own. But first, he’s going to need pants.

After cementing itself as one of the best-rated serial novels on Royal Road with an astonishing 13 million views, He Who Fights with Monsters is now brought to you in professionally formatted audio.

I rarely leave reviews, this book earns one.

After reading or listening to likely a few thousand books throughout my life, I almost always become irritated with the main character's stupidity and/or naivety. This book is different, the main character has a couple of brain cells to rub together, and he's brilliantly quirky.

There are a few minor issues with the book, one phrase about gold rank portals is repeated, and I would have preferred to have less character name insertions in dialogue. However this is greatly over-shadowed by excellent narration and a totally addictive story.

I want more! :)

Refreshing and amusing!

Very happy with this e-book. I would've given it a five if it wasn't for all the repetitions on effects and statuses, probably 15% of the time in this book is just repeated words of things the listener should already know, and if they don't then they probably aren't listening that carefully and probably don't care for that information to be heard in a very monotone way for the 100th time. We get it.

But I loved the characters, the world, the magic and both the mix of light and dark humor.

Interesting story, good world building

I was worried first couple of chapters that this was another long listen but poor....I was pleasantly surprised. it's great fun and I really took to it. Imbued with Aussie irreverence for authority and at the same time examines morality in a refreshing way; but primarily great fun! Heath Miller does a brilliant job of narration and I'm looking forward to the next instalment.

Great fun!

This is truly a master piece of fantasy writing, so many characters you grow to love or hate, a beautiful pace that develops the story whilst never loosing your attention. Additionally, the length of book 1 is a dream and I can’t wait for book 2.

Amazing Story with vast world filled with characters

I’ve bought all of the series and this is my favourite one. The narrator is really good with well defined character voices. If I’m honest, I didn’t enjoy the stories based on earth as much but it’s a minor niggle. Well recommended.

Fantastic narration and engaging series
