Good story, great performance

Where does The First Notch rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Brings me back to the days when I played D&D. I nice diversion from the longer books I've listened to. And Felicia Day is awesome.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The two-headed Ettin was well done - interesting to picture, at the very least.

What about Felicia Day’s performance did you like?

Very pleasant narration, and the different voices for the characters, though obviously challenging, were well done.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Of course. It's less than 30 minutes long.

Any additional comments?

Did I mention that Felicia Day is awesome?

Not bad, but extremely short

I enjoy the Drizzt books, but what's the point of a 26 minute story? Seems like it would have made more sense to make a collection of short stories in a book.

I actually found this by looking for books Felicia Day had read, so I'm a fan of hers... but it seems odd to choose a female voice artist for a story with all male characters.

GoodRead

THE NOTCH was short but well written. It shows everyone can work together for the greater good.
I liked the narrative, the voices worked well for the characters. I liked how in the battle the characters gained respect for each others abilities and realized that appearances can be deceiving. Each character knows that they can count on each other.
The Notch, is a good read

Way too short!....Needed more

If you could sum up The First Notch in three words, what would they be?

Was very short, but it was well done and a pleasure to see Audible giving us this production. Good stuff.

Any additional comments?

Like I saiid it was way to short, but very good. This is my genre, so I am in my glory with the new collection. You have to read them all to get the full effect.

teleported you right into story!

Narrator teleported you right into story! Well done, magnificent writing. R.A. Salvatore does not disappoint.

Classic Salvatore, well performed!

Only complaint... too short. That's offset by the fact theyre charging next to nothing for it. Well worth it. And Felicia Day performing is just perfect.

simple yet complex

well narrated, great talent. nice insight to a beloved character. so much in such a short story.

great fun

I really liked this read. Felicia did a fantastic job. sneaglet was my fast part.

An entertaining listen

The story was an amusing and adventurous experience made even more entertaining by Felicia Day's performance.

It’s Felicia Day!!!

This is a great short story about everyone’s favorite dwarf mentor from when he was a little baby faced dwarf. But it’s read by Felicia Day...as a fan boy I’m sold.
