Acerca de esta escucha
Not many halflings dream of magic.
But Epik isn’t like the rest. Adventure. Excitement. He craves those things. He would rather learn magic, not follow a wizard on some fool's adventure... or so he thinks.
The problem: magic is outlawed. After setting out for the city, what Epik finds in Dune All-En isn’t at all what he’d hoped. No magic. And few wizards.
Luck, or something more sinister, is on the halfling's side. He meets Gabby, a wizard who is kind enough to rent him a room, or rather a closet, at his now-defunct magical supply store. And as a group of mountain trolls threatens the city, Epik sees the opportunity to do something, well, epic.
If only the halfling inside him would stop peeking out.
Featuring halflings, dwarves, elves, and a ranger or two, Hero in a Halfling is perfect for fans of both Discworld and Middle Earth. Join Epik as he goes from halfling to hero, who just also happens to (still) be a halfling.

Historia
Becoming a knockoff Dracula in tight leather pants was never part of Vincent’s plans. Neither was being summoned to another world by a cult of vampire wannabes. But both happened. Now, Vincent’s left to pick up the tattered pieces of his humanity as he tries to grow strong enough to keep his family safe. The world is filled with nightmares, and the looming threat of losing his soul stands between his goal and his reality, so it’s not like it will be too hard or anything. Hell should tremble. A good man is going to war.

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.

It's Ruwen’s Ascension Day, and he finally dies for the first time. His newly revived body can learn spells and abilities for the class given him by the Goddess Uru, and dying is no longer permanent. Ruwen’s high intelligence makes becoming a Mage inevitable. With his new powers, he will locate his parents and clear their family name. But nothing goes as Ruwen imagined, and when a rival God tries to kill Ruwen shortly after his disastrous Ascension, his focus turns from his future to just surviving.

The reality-warping apocalypse has rules and a system much like those in video games. To survive, he must learn how the new uncooperative system works, choose a class without any real knowledge of what it does and create a place safe from the spawning horrors.

Carl was a regular construction foreman. Not the worst, not the best, and definitely not the thinnest. Even so, he didn't deserve that heart attack! He really didn't deserve being reborn into a magic-filled, dog-eat-dog world as a dragon. To be fair, it’s nice to be at the top of the food chain. Now Carl just needs to learn how magic works, which monsters are safe to eat, and why his hoard is so important to him. Dealing with everything changing is hard enough, but he has enemy dragons incoming, hostile environments, and foes constantly trying to get bragging rights by taking down a dragon.

Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place that might sound and smell very much like our own, but which looks completely different. Particularly as it’s carried though space on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown). It plays by different rules. But then, some things are the same everywhere. The Disc’s very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land.

Jin Rou wanted to be a cultivator. A man powerful enough to defy the heavens. A master of martial arts. A lord of spiritual power. Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I’m stuck in his body. Arrogant Masters? Heavenly Tribulations? All that violence and bloodshed? Yeah, no thanks. I’m getting out of here. Farm life sounds pretty great. Tilling a field by hand is fun when you’ve got the strength of ten men—though maybe I shouldn’t have fed those Spirit Herbs to my pet rooster.

Hot on the heels of Gardner Dozois's acclaimed anthology The Book of Swords comes this companion volume devoted to magic. How could it be otherwise? For every Frodo, there is a Gandalf... and a Saruman. For every Dorothy, a Glinda... and a Wicked Witch of the West. What would Harry Potter be without Albus Dumbledore... and Severus Snape? Figures of wisdom and power, possessing arcane, often forbidden knowledge, wizards and sorcerers are shaped - or misshaped - by the potent magic they seek to wield.

Unexpectations
Very good story. More of an easy listening adventure tale and not LITRPG. Could be. But isn't. Still very good and very possible. Maybe not probable. Epik wants to be a wizard and that is his dream. Who would think the half pint would be more or less than that depending upon who tells the tale.

Fabulous story
I read this story and was concerned about confusion when listening to it because chapters moved quickly between scenes. However, I really enjoyed hearing it. Elijah DiViesti did a marvelous job with pacing so the conversations were natural. The voices were distinctive so I knew who was speaking each time.
I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoys a great adventure with interesting characters.

Lighthearted Romp through a Tolkien-Inspired World
The author, William Tyler Davis, gave me a promotional audible copy of "Hero in a Halfling: Epik Fantasy Book 1" in exchange for a fair review.
It was such a pleasure to be able to read this book. In the Halfing Epik's first adventure, Davis lays the foundations for a whimsical fantasy series that delightfully parodies the tropes we've come to know and love (or hate) in the great fantasy epics. The tone is innocent and aloof--much like Prachett in his beloved Discworld Series--and is distinct enough to strike out on its own and stand unique amongst the rest of comedy-fantasy genre.
The plot itself is not unprecedented. Davis cobbles together a band of unlikely characters similar to Tolkien's party in "Fellowship of the Ring." A halfling, a wizard, dwarves, elves, and orcs get dropped into a sandbox to play. Where "Hero in a Halfling" shines is in likable characters and playful humor-- sprinkled with geek-culture references that aren't too heavy-handed.
The book is not without its faults, many of which a lot of new authors struggle with. The action sometimes stutters and setting needs to be made more clear at times. Davis relies a bit too much on dialogue and sometimes forgets to note visuals, audio, and sensation. However, these complaints are minor and do not detract from what the book sets out to achieve.
"Hero in a Halfling" is whimsical tale not to be taken too seriously. Go into this book willing to poke a bit of fun at the fantasy genre and you'll be sure to finish with a smile. I will be following Epik--and William and Elijah--to the conclusion of the Halfling Epik's adventuring, and I am incredibly excited to see them find their strides in storytelling and narrating.

A life lived in fear is a life Halfling lived
Action, adventure, excitement. A Jedi craves these things not, and neither do Halflings for the most part. The exception to that thought is Epik, a halfling who just craves a life filled with magic. Literally. So, he picks up and leaves home because I think his thought was that a life lived in fear is a life Halfling lived. He wants to experience life, not work in a bar where everybody's cup is halfling full or halfling empty. His real philosophy is that a life is halfling spent before we know what it is! So he heads off to learn some magic, only to learn that the king has banned that particular ability from being practiced. Thankfully, he meets Gabby, and just might get his wish when some trolls start eating the locals. That's it for the recap, and thank you for letting me get in my halfling bits, I really found them to be fun.
Anyway, ever since some guy whose initials started with a J and two R's came along halflings have proven themselves to be interesting characters. Aside from the Lord of the Ring books like Dennis L. McKiernan's Iron Tower Trilogy, and Ron Howard's Willow have show the little guys to be more than capable heroes. Davis continues to prove the point, as Epik is a hero through and through, he just needs a chance to prove himself.
The book is a fun romp. The bad thing with funny fantasy is that everyone wants to instantly compare you to Terry Pratchett. Don't get me wrong, Pratchett is funny, but it is like comparing Robin Williams to Brian Regan. Both Hilarious, and neither similar to the other. I think Davis stands out here on his own, and has managed to find his own humorous sensibilities. I will say that a lot of the funny business stems directly from the characters themselves, and the predicaments they find themselves in. You will care about the characters, and will find each one tickles your funny bone in a different way.
Oh, and let me say that I love the cover. It conveys everything about the book in one shot, It caught my eye instantly as soon as I saw it, and made me wonder about the story behind it. Also, it is not one of those crappy take a picture and digitize it into a cover. I hate those things. This is actual art, and it sings!
The narration by DiViesti is not bad. I think he has gotten a bad rap for a few imperfections. I did catch a few misreadings, but nothing I couldn't live with. For example (and this is NOT one of his mistakes) he read a few lines like, "What is that in the road, a head?" where it should have been read like, "What is that in the road ahead?" Nothing that I couldn't overlook or forgive. I was also warned that he has some strange pauses periodically, and he does, but again it is nothing that distracts from the book. I don't know if he is new to narrating, but that is the way it feels. A few more books under his belt and he'll be just as good as Naramore or Hays. I see that he was replaced in the second book by Starla Hutchon, which is sad because A woman has to be twice as good as a man to go halfling as far. She has a lot do in the next book, and I hope she had fun reading it. I'm starting it tonight! I'll let you know soon!
Look, the story is fun and exciting, and you will read this in halfing the time that you should because you will be enjoying it so much. Epik is as epic as he can be, and his crew of compatriots will fill your heart with adventure and laughter. So, get this book today, and don't delay. Even though I did receive a promo code for this review it in no way influenced my considerations of the material, and in fact, inspired me to be more honest. In fact, getting a code generally makes me harsher as a reviewer as I am more often concerned what someone like Me will decide based on my review.
If this review helped, please press the YES below. Thank you immensely!!!

Hero in a Halfling
An interesting book for young adults that is very reminiscent of Tolkien’s work. I found that it started out a bit slow, but as I got to know the characters, my interest picked up.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

Delightful light fantasy
A fun light read, moved quickly and it took a while to remember which character was which, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The frequent sprinkling of puns, references to other works (LOTR, Monty Python, Terry Pratchett, Silent Bob, etc.), and the occasional odd-end footnote kept me laughing. Great book for young adults and adults alike. Looking forward to the next book!

Good first adventure but wasn't anything special
It was a fun story about a halfling named Epik and his journey to another place where he tries to find a wizard. I don't want to give much away but it was a decent story but it didn't have anything special in it for me to give it more then three stars. The narrator was good too but some of the accents were tough to understand at an increased speed and found myself having to rewind a good amount of times to understand what he was saying.

3.5 stars
Audible version. I would give the book 3.5 stars. It starts off a little slow but picks up midway through. The writing seemed a little off to me, maybe it was the pacing of the story? The main character seems to have no potential, but everybody he meets seems to see something in him. Without giving any spoilers, he doesnt really accomplish or do much. The story came together in the and the series may have potential, but I really didn't care for the main character. There was some humor, mainly word play and puns. I received this book for free for my honest opinion. The narration was good, but I prefer more distinction between each character.

Loved it from beginning to end
This is one of the better epic fantasy comedy stories I've listened to. The characters are interesting and each have their own quirks and motivations. The author seems to have drawn inspiration from Tolkien and is in many ways a comedic take on traditional fantasy tropes.
highly recommended.

A delightful romp
The pop culture references- well, you either love them or you don't but otherwise this is a delightful romp. Fantasy with a bit of humor and that wears it's heart on it's sleeve.
