About this listen

Fantasy novella inspired by games and their players.

In a world fractured by magic and time, I, the humble storyteller, find myself piecing together a tale I can scarcely believe.

It begins with a halfling bard named Digram, whose discovery of a forgotten melody sets him and his companions on a dangerous quest.

The dwarf Beryl, the human noble Minelira, and the elven warrior Lord Vaelior all carry their secrets, scars, and simmering tensions into this perilous journey. Together, they brave forests alive with menace, tunnels steeped in shadow, and caves where trolls plot their next meal.

The magic rings promise a wish fulfilled, but as I uncover their history, I see how much more dangerous it is to seek what lies within one’s deepest heart.

Perhaps I am no more than a scribe to their adventure—but if you’re reading this, you too are caught in its spell.

The story feels like sitting by a campfire listening to an old legend, which I really enjoyed. The narration is great and adds a lot of warmth to the story. I just wish the pacing was a little quicker in some parts, but overall it’s a nice and a cozy listen that leaves you with that classic adventure vibe.

Good story but a bit slow sometimes

A fun and witty story with great characters given life by wonderful narration. Such was the strength of it all was a shame it didn't last longer. Worth it for the singing alone :-)

This audiobook is about 2 hours and 35 minutes long — just the right length to enjoy every journey alongside the heroes the author brings to life. I truly enjoyed the story! The author created wonderful, unique characters with rich personalities that make the world feel vivid and alive.
Special praise goes to the narrator, Sean Docherty — he did an amazing job! His reading is full of life and emotion, and his singing adds a beautiful touch that makes the listening experience even more enjoyable.
I really love books written by Anka B. Troitsky — she’s a fantastic author of science fiction and fantasy.
Highly recommended!

The story builds slowly, but once it unfolds, it’s worth it. The world feels broken and beautiful at the same time, filled with old secrets and forgotten power. I liked the way magic and time twist around the characters, shaping their choices. It’s not just an adventure, it’s a reflection on memory and what’s lost. Some moments hit hard emotionally, but the balance of wonder and sadness made it special. Definitely something different from usual fantasy stories.
