Morrigan's Bidding

Binding Words, Book 1

By: Daniel Schinhofen

Narrated by: Andrea Parsneau

Sean was just waiting for his best friend to show up at the bar so they could play some pool. It came as a shock when the tall blonde man accosted Sean and demanded that he change seats. His refusal would change his life.

When the fight ended, Sean found himself in the strangest meeting of his life. Odin, Archangel Michael, Lucifer, and Morrigan all vied for his soul, each offering different deals. Sean had to choose, so he chose to go with the goddess of Fate, Death, and Battle.

Placed on a new world, gifted with a new body crafted by the gods, and more gifts from other deities of the Tuatha De Danann, Sean now has the chance to live out a new life on a new world. Not everything will be sunshine and roses, however, in this world ruled by the Summer and Winter Queens. He learns quickly that words have power in this world, and that Agreements are binding.

Sean has his work cut out for finding his place in this new world.

Epic Gamelit Adventure!

Good story and narration!

MC's buddy invites him to hang out at a bar, and while Sean is waiting for his buddy to show up, a stranger picks a fight with him. Stuff happens, and gods compete for his sole (turns out he got killed by Thor). Choosing his deity, Sean gets transported to a world with game mechanics with abilities and a body crafted by a pantheon - free from commitments, but with the hope that he can right a distant wrong. Gamer shenanigans ensue...

I loved this book! I can't wait for more!

Note:
This story is Haram Gamelit - this genera often contains explicit scenes

Another wonderful book

Again Daniel gives us a great book. Andrea did an amazing job with the narration.

Absolutely do not judge a book by it's cover.

Sadly I avoided this series due to it's cover picture for far too long. While a tad on the short side I do not regret spending the credit for even a second. Great character and world building. Daniel Schinhofen has skyrocketed into my favorite authors echelon in almost no time at all. If you like authors like William D Arrand/Randy Darren, Michael Scott Earl, Kurtis Eckstein, Jan Stryvant, etc. You will enjoy these books just as much.

As always, Andrea is brillant, captivating, seductive, and makes a great story even better!

much better than expected

I was really surprised on how good this book was, I highly recommend it, and I would give 6 stars if possible.

Went in with doubt, came out a fan

Got this on the last sale and I did not expect to like it so much. The story was very interesting, bringing together a lot of different stories and mythologies. Loved the characters, although the MC could have been a bit more decisive, but he came through when it mattered. the most beautiful thing was the romance though, seeing them develop was one on the best things in this novel.

Now, another thing that must be mentioned is the narration. Andrea Parsneau did a wonderful job making each character feel unique; and those accents, just wow!

I like this story.

I enjoy looking for thr clues to why.

the narrator made it easy to know the characters.

I have reread this story and found new things to enjoy.

Good

Solid story slice of life. Great adventure Good pacing, interesting story.
And a excellent start..

Dear god our Mc is the worst..

Look, we all like a Mc who’s not perfect. Someone who’s not perfect but carries themselves well.. that said our Mc here is beyond stupid. BEYOND… stupid.. not to mention he’s a 30 y/o who acts 12 when it comes to the opposite sex. It’s just irritating.. this story builds him up then one blunder after another.. a woman shows him attention and he becomes a bumbling stuttering moron.. I want to like it.. I really really want to.. I have an hour left in book 1 and unless something changes I don’t think book 2 is in the future..

Best female narration I've ever heard

I'll start with the narrator. She is my absolute favorite female narrator, and the only narrator I like more than her is R C Brey. She can do some of the best masculine voices (for her gender), and has a vast array of female voices that are truly unique. 10 out of 10 for narration.

The story is also quite good, however I do have a few gripes. Mostly I just felt the book was either too short or not enough was really happening, there is too much of the same ole same ole. There are also parts I felt could've been shortened greatly and others that I'd like to have seen fleshed out. I'd still like to point out I loved the story and am greatly looking forward to the next. I also like the fact that even though the sex in this book is extremely limited, the author still put a great deal of effort into writing the parts where there is and didn't over or under indulge the audience in it. I'd give the author a 8 of 10.

Very short

I prefer the first book in a series be longer.

While I find several of the contrivances trite, there's a lot to like. The nature of the MC's gifts is interesting and different, and there's more humor than I expected.
