Popular Reviews of A Ninth World Journal

Well, I´m not into gaming. Like at all. Nevertheless I find myself well entertained by this show, that has a rich world building, an engaging story and practical bite-sized episodes. But I must admit, that THAT VOICE is one of the biggest reasons I keep on listening.

Quantum Leap meets Numenara, with a splash of Doctor Who. This is a great audio drama that makes excellent use is the setting from Numenara. Even if you haven't played the RPG (I haven't!), you will absolutely enjoy this.

This podcast is lovely and clever. It's well written and well acted. The story is fascinating and engaging.

This show is a magical meld between an AP system and a written AD with top-notch voice acting. What David has created here is unique and an absolute delight to listen to.

Dude, holy shit. Why haven't I listened to this podcast before? IT'S SO GOOD!

Wasn't sure this podcasts was up my alley when I first started it. But that quickly changed. It is now definitely one of my favorite podcasts and I look forward to each episode as it comes out. It is unique and that is something that is definitely needed in the podcasting world.

Like a travelogue from a dissolute chef, no longer interested in the specifics of his profession but instead opening his eyes to the vast complexity and amazing diversions on offer in the world. I had never heard of Numenera, but this podcast reeled me in.

David does an amazing job building the world and letting people into it. The voice work is amazing and everything about it will draw you in!

Don't miss these explorations, don't you dare. Looking forward to more!

This is one of our favorite Audio Drama's! Knowing NOTHING about the Numenera table top game has made this journey into this bizarre futuristic world a thrilling experience which we look forward too every time! David's narrative voice is amazing!

You have to listen to this show. The voice acting is amazing, and David's voice is magical. The first season is pretty good, but the second is fantastic. You're missing out if you're not listening to the (mis)adventures of Januae.

Januae you wonderful Jaunting man, you are a source of much entertainment. This show is a wonderful journey across the world of Numenera. Voiced by the wonderful David S. Dear, this show brings back such great memories of being a child and getting that since of wonder as I was reading. The story is brought to life so well. The first season was amazing and I am looking forward to season 2.

This is one of my favorite podcasts because of the amount of love and talent that is brought to bear on every episode. I adore this, without ever having played this game. The creator of this podcast is spinning a tale worthy of a listen. Do yourself a favor, get on this train... or jaunt.

This is the perfect commute audio drama. Whether your drive 15 minutes or 150, the story is captivating for you to enjoy every second. Each episode is just long enough to keep you wanting more, but long enough to make you sit and reflect on what just happened. This is a binge waiting to happen!

A delicious journey into a unique universe! Worth curling up with a warm beverage for!

This is a premier audio fiction podcast. The concept is well done, the execution is top-notch, and it gets better and better, season by season. It's great to hear a show capitalize on its successes and fix its issues as it continues along.I have no negatives listening to this show, it truly is a fantastic listening experience and one you must add to your queue!

Dont worry about the game its adapted from, you dont have to know it to enjoy the show (I am proof of that ?)This is a awesome audio drama with a very interesting character and a crazy world which somehow makes a lot of sense!

A rich, full and complex world, brought to life by David and the cast’s performances, scoring and sound effects. This feels lovingly and painstakingly produced, and a great listen for fans of big sprawling sci-fi and fantasy.

I've loved A Ninth World Journal since the first listen. Let it draw you in, and don't worry if you don't know the game -- you don't need to. This is storytelling at its finest, with a cast and story that are just amazing.

This show makes me want to play Numenera, but also leaves me satisfied as though I've just played an RPG. It is an impressive narrative replete with interesting characters and wonderful narration. My assumptions of it, based on the summary, being like 'Quantum Leap but set in Numenera', wound up feeling almost reductive, because David and the show do compelling and interesting things that have surprised and delighted me beyond what I had expected.
