Master and Apprentices

Rise of the Cheat Potion Maker, Book 2

De: Alvin Atwater

Narrado por: Matt Hicks, Allie Piper

The story of Nate the potion maker continues!

Well, did you know that Kyushu is an F-ranked town? Neither did I, but had I known about this tidbit information, all of the unfortunate attacks would’ve made sense. I think. But the Lord Ruler truly is a douche canoe for leaving his people to fend for themselves.

That’s not all. My shop’s ranking is E, embarrassing really, despite all of the hard work put into building it.

There’s a lot of work to do to be competitive with the other shops out there. But the most important things are training my apprentices, getting to know my betrothed, understanding my pets, and welcoming our new farmhand.

Will I ever be confident enough to truly feel like a master of apprentices? Who knows?

The story begins with picking up my third apprentice from a mother who may have too much ambition and enough anger issues to give even Meredith Blake a run for her money.

Novel contains: Strong MC in a slice of life environment, dungeon diving, boss battles, cultivation and elements, mana/magic, mc exclusive system but it doesn't do the work for him, treasures, adventurers, slow world building, build-up, features that will not be introduced all at once (upgrades so on), actual good loot at the end of very powerful bosses, romance (no harem). As characters develop throughout the series, issues and emotions and even the mc may find himself in a corner or two. A story of an upcoming potion shopkeeper and his apprentices.

Building an S-ranked Potion Shop is easier said than done...

Love it

this is an incredible and enjoyable listen. yes the story remains with most gamelit tropes in the sense of an individual with over the top power who always achieves victory because of some convenient plot device or whatever. Yet that isn't the driving point in this adventure. Nate continues to resist the "hero's call" and aims to advance his own skills and desires. I'm constantly looking forward to how he will avoid revealing his strengths each time. the fact that his chosen goal is almost actively restrained by the system makes his progress, even the slightest, something very interesting and never feels like guarantee. Honestly his struggles to achieve his personal goals is as exciting as most boss fights I've watched. maybe there is even a lesson buried inside this story, something about not letting the world dictate your outcomes... or maybe I'm childish.

Just keeps getting better!!!

I am seriously hooked on this series! It has the awesome feel of an anime but with more details and not an over abundance of too many tropes. I also like the slightly more laid back approach of the narrative but still giving us progress and development. I’m seriously looking forward to where this series goes next!

Hicks and Piper both do an amazing job with their character voices! Especially Hicks with the job to narrate the overall story. Looking forward to the next book on audible!

Just amazing!

If you haven’t read/listened to the first book, I recommend starting there first. The readers of this book are amazing!

Great

Awesome book series so for. Highly looking forward to listening to the next book. XD

Still doing it his way!

Once again Mr. It's not MY issue, saves the day while trying to do his own thing. The System tries to nudge him this way or that, but he has no F's to give. So what does the system do? If it can't sway Nate then it will put others in Nate's path. His only concern is raising his adopted town up from F-rank.

The performance of Matt Hicks and Allie Piper has me searching for other books they've done. They bring character to the characters. Listening to this is like listening to a master class in timing and inflection. Do yourself a favor and grab book 1 & 2, then hope that book 3 is out after your binge session.

Already Read it and Still Wanted the Audio

I love Alvin Atwater's books read most of them and have not found one I did not like. Honestly I read this book before the audio one came out. The audio performance was FANTASTIC Matt Hicks and Allie Piper do a fantastic job bringing the characters to life but their skill really shows with the pets! You can not go wrong with this book and it is so much fun enjoying this book
