The weakest hunter of all mankind!

E-rank hunter Jinwoo Sung has no money, no talent, and no prospects to speak of - and apparently, no luck, either! When he enters a hidden double dungeon one fateful day, he’s abandoned by his party and left to die at the hands of some of the most horrific monsters he’s ever encountered.

But just before the last, fatal blow...ping! [Congratulations on becoming a Player.]

not a fan of sound effects

fantastic storyline, best character development and clever idea. but the sound effects take me out a bit. If it's here to stay I'll just get used to it but would be nice to have a version without.

don't skip out on this only for that reason though. you'd be missing out

sound effects

there are a lot of reviews about the sound effects. imo it not that they are bad it is just that there are a whole lot of them. could cut down on them by 50% at least. other than that the narrator is fine.

Highly Entertaining!!

I love this book! I'm gonna continue the legacy! The voices and sound effects were super entertaining! The Narrator really kept me drawn in! I'm definitely going through the whole series.

amazing story, Sound effects ruined it.

I love this book. The story is wonderful. That said, I could not listen to it through this audio book. I ended up just reading the physical novel because everytime I would get immersed into the story with the audio, the narrator would try to make the sound effects and it ripped me out of the immersion.

good story, I'm just spoiled

good story, just had trouble listening to the narrator hes not bad I've just been spoiled with voice actors with extremely large ranges that are able to make every character come to life and sound unique or whole productions with multiple narrators for main characters

Good story. narration is iffy

So I’m gonna start by saying that for 90% of the story the performance is great, but the narrator makes a lot of sound effects. Now I don’t know if these sounds were in the original novel, if so, those sounds do NOT transfer well to audiobook format. for example when a monster growls, instead of just saying that it growled, the narrator makes an admittedly impressive growling sound. And there are more than a few times where he sounded out things like a door creaking which was……..like a door creaking. Now I will say that the sound effects themselves were great and I am actually impressed that he could make those noises, but well they make it hard to listen too. but outside of that it’s a good listen.

great story, unnecessary sounds

the book was amazing and the story is well written. The only issue I had with the book were the sound effect made by the narrator. unnecessary noises made it easy for me to want to stop listening. No need for someone to try to make the sound of a keyboard with their mouth.
I understand this narrator is new, and their voice acting is good for only doing 2 books at this time. all I can say to you is awesome work for starting out. good voice and great personality for the characters. the sound effects are the only issue. it peaks your microphone and feels like my ears will bleed when you make sword noises with your mouth.

Great Story, Good Narration, Awful Sounds Effects

This story is really great and really captivating. I couldn't stop listening to it once I started. The biggest issue is that the narrator is terrible at sound effects and it would be better if he just described what was happening instead of trying to make the noises. It is so off putting when he does a terrible sound effect it pulls you out of the story because it's so bad. Other than that his narration is pretty good.

Fantastic all around!

I’m not sure why people were complaining about the narrator, he did great! Yes, he voices all the sound effects, but those are written in the book so of course he does! It wouldn’t be an unabridged audiobook if he didn’t. (I find a lot of books in this genre are like that. It’s not as common in English based books but it’s not hard to get used to if you want to.) About the only thing I can say against him is his “girl hunter” screams are not great (kinda funny actually) but he only has to do that a couple of times for the whole book so not hard to ignore.
Of course the story itself is phenomenal as well.
Honestly this was totally worth the buy and I can’t wait for the next audiobook!!

I Loved it!! Did not disappoint!

This audible is a good listen!! Cant wait to listen to the full series!
I enjoyed the character developement, storyline, and performance; It was well written, easy to follow, and lots of imagery. There were many in the comments who did not fancy the sound effects and thats understandable. In truth, it is below average but was about 1% of the book. DONT LET THAT DETER YOU! I found it pretty funny how the narrorator would try to impersonate sound effects.
