Resumen del Editor

The dragons are gone, leaving behind their essence for those who follow.

Firewater is sacred. Touched by the power of the dragons, those who consume it can become more like those ancient beings. Most become dragon forged, their bodies strengthened to help fight the dangerous creatures attacking the valley.

But firewater didn’t change Rob.

When invaders threaten to destroy his people, what Rob discovers may save all he cares about—and provide the key to forging his own power.

Dragon Forged is book 1 in an exciting new progression fantasy series!

Very boring narrator. Monotone

Narrator is a virtual voice and it shows. Only slight inflection if any, no distinction between characters, pause after every sentence. Glad it was free with subscription, because I would not have purchased this audible version.

Virtual narrator was terrible, flat and emotionless.

I actually enjoyed the story though I think I would have enjoyed it more if it was narrated by an actual person. The virtual narrator was so flat and emotionless. Didn’t emphasize at the right times or differentiate between characters which made it seem poorly written though I’m sure it really was just the AI. Want to read the next book but not sure I will if not done with a real narrator.

great story line

narration lack emotions , not a fan of the AI narrator. some time voice changes mid sentence with same character. needs work.

intriguing story but...

look I'm going to be flat out honest the reading thing AI you want to put that on the back shelf until it can do emotion. there's just nothing there to pull you in from the reader.

repeat repeat

it gets kind of annoying when you have a machine talking with no emotion and having it where the author doesn't notice that there is some repeating sentences or console using the same word over and over again. if you could just fix that, it'd be perfect

Badly edited virtual voice

The story line for this book is good, but not excellent and the virtual voice is actually better than expected except for the fact that it is badly put together. The authors are probably trying to minimize costs and probably edited the audio themselves. I am guessing that they had mistakes throughout the book and then they went back to redo the virtual voice for those sections. Unfortunately, these sections have an unpleasant muffled voice. Switching between good quality audio to bad quality audio is annoying.

Dear authors if you are not going to pay someone to professionally generate and edit the audio, please make sure it sounds good first and don't release the audiobook until it is done correctly.

The virtual voice narration is the worst.

Overall the content of the book wasn’t bad, but the virtual voice narration is the worst. I’ve got well over a 100 books in my listening library and the virtual voice of this book should be reading anything more than a cooking recipe. If it hadn’t been free, I wouldn’t have listened to it.

I love dragon stories

the reader was not good. he needed to have a little different voices for characters. It was drab an not exciting.

A poor choice in voice tones

Basically the story sounded interesting however the monotoone of the entire book wasn't the best. When it came to characters talking I had a hard time keeping track of who spoke and how intense the dialogue was. Making it increasingly hard to understand if they were in an intense situation or if someone was being emotional. Overall not the best choice to go with AI Voice in this case. Unless one were to alter it to have more emotion or different voice's for each character maybe it would help a little.

Sounds Off

Not a fan of digital voice. No emotion, inflection, difference in tones, accents of different characters.
