Summary
A world abandoned by the gods, mystifying cosmic forces, unimaginable power for those willing to ascend, and a hero who would rather . . . go fishing???
When summoned to a fantastical world and granted powers by a broken System, most freshly minted protagonists would strap on their big-boy boots and get ready for their stats to start climbing. But Fischer isn't like most MCs. In fact, he doesn't want to be a hero at all.
Fame? Fortune? Power? He had enough of all that in his old life. Discovering forbidden fishing techniques and petting every cute animal that comes within scritching distance? Now that's a good time.
Unfortunately for Fischer, cosmic forces rarely care for mortal feelings. He's hounded on all sides by inept cults, conspiring nobles, and more magical misunderstandings than those of a preteen relationship. Even his dutiful pet crab is firing energy blades like an anime antagonist.
So grab your fishing rod and a good snack, and pet your dog for me. The catch of a lifetime awaits!
The first volume of the laugh-out-loud LitRPG adventure series—a #1 Rising Star on Royal Road with over three million views—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!
Critic reviews
“I can’t think of a single story I’d rather get truck-kun’d (truck-kunned?) into than [that of] the vivid, lush world portrayed in Heretical Fishing, especially if I can hang out with Fischer and his gang. . . . The best book I’ve read this year.” —Matt Dinniman, author of Dungeon Crawler Carl

Brilliant story
Great story. A mix of He Who fights with Monsters and Beware of chicken. I thoroughly enjoyed it and have pre-ordered book 2.

A tale that includes a crab into S & M, you're going to have listen now
Absolutely enjoyed it 5 stats all around, a proper storyline no going from one ridiculous battle with silly creatures to another ridiculous battle with even more ridiculous creatures. None of the constant stream of incoherent stats that ruin other stories and that make little sense. I highly recommend this book

6 out of 5 stars
This is up there with greats in the genre like DCC and HWFWM. I'd pre-ordered the second book in the series two hours in.

Deliciously enjoyable
Originally picked this up for a laugh, and I’m a big fan of Heath, but it ended up being incredibly enjoyable and bizarre. Looking forward to the next book in July!
