Manipulation

Magic Eater, Book 1

By: Sean Oswald

Narrated by: Giancarlo Herrera, Hannah Schooner

Tad doesn't have any memory before waking up on the beach, apparently the sole survivor of a shipwreck. All he has from his past is a necklace with a symbol no one recognizes.

After growing up in the orphanage, he takes a job managing inventory for a merchant catering to adventurers. He knows he's a bit off, the world just smells different to him.

When he's confronted by a group of adventurers with more power than ethics, he learns that it's been magic he is smelling all along. As the confrontation builds he learns that he can eat that same magic, but it isn't enough to keep him from being taken.

Waking up in a dungeon, he quickly learns they are more than monster filled pits. They are tools of the Great System and just maybe doorways through the multiverse.

Now he must struggle to prove his worth, grow in power, and master his strange ability, all complicated by the fact that the enchantments on his gear might just be alive.

the whole way I asked myself one thing.

I enjoyed it very much and am looking forward to the next book! I really hope it picks up from the second this one ends or at least with the day or something. now months or weeks. the Way it ended with not finishing the Arc between the two and you will know who I'm talking about and won't spoil it now it different and I get it's a book that's the start of a bigger narrative but we could have had a small encounter before the end of the book set up or interlude with just what happened to her when she Left Tad's room that evening! but wonder book definitely a great start and looking forward to the next part of his adventure 🤔

pretty good

it was a good continuation from the last book. hoped it would have had an epolouge at the end instead of that free listen, but no complaints on the book itself.

amazing story

really good writing really slow reader you have to turn up the speed at minimum 1.5x

story

not sure why this series isn't more popular!!!!

completely original story line, all while staying in the litrpg genre. not just a story of a lost boy and power!!!
