A Quest of Heroes

August 2022 Hoopla Bonus Borrows recomendation

Ooof I wasn't sure what all the 1 star reviews were about, but at the 3.5 hour mark of the audiobook it's time to call it quits.

The character is a Mary Sue. Has the most intense powers anyone has encoutered. Adopted by a king. Saved the life of the prized knight. Princess is immediately smitten with him. A lot of instantaneous “wow, look at all these amazing things happening to me!”

Also saw another review mention how this book is made up of moments from other classic fantasy authors. There is definitely some Sword in the Stone, and wannabe Tolkein.

It's very much the “I want to be the star of the series, so I will write this character with immense luck to experience EVERYTHING.”

Returning and leaving in the DNF pile.
