This book was such a fun quirky, sci-fi, witchy story, I usually struggle with the sci-fi side but our characters wit and the banter through the book honestly made it such a fun read! I will admit I wasn't a fan of the narrator but I don't want to make that the reason I rate it lower. I do think it could do with a little more editing but all in all It was a fun, well rounded story. Our main character is such a fun one to follow and the characters she meets are just as fun a quirky!

Oops! I Broke the Wizard’s Android! Is a sci-fi/ fantasy story. The audiobook wasn’t perfect. The narrator was good. If you’re looking for something cozy and low-stakes, it’s worth a try, It just came up a bit dry no actual depth to the story.

3⭐
A young wizard gets an apprenticeship - great! But with one of the worst mentors - not so great... On top of that, an android slowly starts replacing her, until...

Such a quirky, fun read, that kept me entertained from start to finish. Also, very easy in terms of terminology, considering it's SciFi/Fantasy.

✨ Thoroughly enjoyed listening to Royce narrate this story.

✨✨ Thank you Ragamancers Press. & NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

Tis was a delightful blend of humor and adventure. The story follows a quirky protagonist who inadvertently damages a wizard's android, leading to a series of comedic and magical mishaps. Roeswood’s playful writing style kept me engaged, and one line that made me chuckle was, “I didn’t mean to cause a malfunction; I just wanted to borrow a spell!”

The characters are fun and memorable, with plenty of witty banter that added to the charm. However, I did find some plot points a bit predictable, which took away some of the tension.

Overall, this is a lighthearted romp filled with laughter and enchantment. It’s perfect for anyone looking for a whimsical escape!

I'm so disappointed, but it was impossible for me. The book is narrated by a man, while the main character is a woman. For me, I couldn't listen to this book; it was very strange and cringy. Since I haven't listened to the book, I can't give a good or bad rating. So, I give it a 3 star, but I repeat: I did not listen to this book.

I'm torn on how I feel about Oops! I broke the Wizard's Android! By Royce Rosewood. I'm one hand, I really like cozy fantasy and the story was fun enough. But I did end up bored and zoning out several times.

I didn't know until after I read the book that AI was used to help write it. I wouldn't not have read it if I had known that ahead of time.

The audiobook quality wasn't very good. There was constant buzzing and humming in the background. And at one point I could hear what sounded like a dog barking in the background. But the narration was great! I loved the voice for the android!

Thank you to the publishers and netgalley for this arc in exchange for an honest review.

I am so torn with this book. It was fine. The story was ok and I did enjoy listening to it. There were parts that I found myself drifting off and having to refocus. But I am really not a fan of the fact that it was written using AI. Honestly if I had known this before I would not have requested this ARC. But it was an ok book.

3 stars

This book is funny, cozy-ish, and even goofy at times.
It was fun compared to a lot of other fantasy/sci-fi reads out there but it was overall very forgettable.
The title of the book felt a little gimmicky, like it promised something that wasn't constant throughout the book.
Overall I think this book just needed a few more rounds of edits.
I did like that the author was also the narrator.

This was a decent story. It was quirky.
I liked the magic and droids.
I wasn’t super invested in it but it was a good story.

This was a really fun and fantastical read. I think it's rare than an author captures fun into their writing and Ryce Roeswood does this so well! I will absolutely be a loyal reader in the future!

I was fortunate to be approved to listen to an audio ARC of Oops! I Broke the Wizard's Android and it was such a treat! I can't believe that Roeswood is both such a great writer and imaginative narrator, They absolutely brought this story to life!

Thank you so much for letting me listen to this audiobook. This story is quite a lot of fun. I liked the fantasy / science-fiction mix. And the characters so lovable.

Thank you to the author, publisher, and Net Galley for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I enjoyed this story being read by the author. I appreciate the author's note at the end of the story explaining his writing process and tools he used.

Oops!... is a mash up sci-fi, fantasy, & little bit of mystery. I enjoyed this story. I especially enjoyed Gossie the frog/dog and the other creatures. This was a fun romp with interesting characters. It is suggested for young adults, but if you like a fun sci-fi story give it a try.

The narration of this audiobook was very entertaining and really brought the story to life. I do not think I would have enjoyed this as a physical read because the story is just average. There is nothing very unique or anything to really make it rise above the rest.

I have very mixed feelings on this book. I think it is a cute, cozy book that has a specific audience. However, I don’t love that AI was used to write this story. I know that the whole story isn’t just AI generated, but I just don’t agree with using AI to help write your story.

Thank you NetGalley for granting me access to the ALC

The premise of the book was interesting and I loved the characters. It was slow at the beginning but the pace did pick up from the middle of the book. The narrator was enjoyable as well

First of all, thank you so much to both NetGalley and Royce Roeswood for providing me with this free book in exchange for my honest review!
There were a lot of things I liked about this book! The cover art was so fun, and, in my opinion, did a perfect job of setting the mood for the book. Additionally, I also liked the world built by the author. It was a quirky and unique setting that did a nice job of combining fantasy and science fiction. It really reminded me of the movie Treasure Planet. I could really clearly visualize the world.
The writing did have a strong voice, but certain elements of the story, plot, and characterization did feel almost random for the sake of random, and just kind of there. Ninienne was quirky and fun, but wasn’t necessarily a compelling protagonist. Overall, I do think that the world is the most interesting part of the story. The plot wasn’t all too gripping to me, and though there was certainly humor and some element of heart, it just overall fell flat for me.
Additionally (and this is a critique that applies to the audiobook only), the narrator for the audiobook feels like an odd choice? After doing a bit of digging, I saw that Roeswood is an audiobook narrator with a somewhat extensive list of credits. While I understand that this was most likely the cheaper option, as well as ensuring that the reading is exactly true to the author’s vision, I don’t know if they were the best option. Don’t get me wrong, the narration was good, with a nice voice and nice reading, it just felt weird. Roeswood has a deeper voice, and Ninienne (who, btw, I thought was named Minion for most of the book) is a teenage girl. Maybe it was just me, but I was just very aware of this dissonance.
Upon finishing the book, I would like to say that the author did state that they used artificial intelligence in the creation of this novel. I am heavily against the use of generative AI when it comes to creative works, and had I known that before finishing the book, I probably would not have picked it up in the first place. While I find it interesting that Roeswood was inspired by modern conversations surrounding AI in the writing of this book, I just find it disingenuous, especially because they followed it up by saying “I wanted to write a book quickly.” Writing is an art, and should be treated as such, not an obstacle to quickly get out of the way. That statement put me off as well, but it was incorporated at the end. The bulk of my review was drafted before I had even learned about this, so it is largely unaffected by this revelation.

Ninienne is a wizard in the making and what better way to boost her resume than completing a successful internship - except the master wizard that she is apprenticing for is the absolute worst! And then an android shows up to replace her, turning this into the most unfair competition ever. To make matters worse, what is a girl to do when she "accidentally" breaks her competition? Be prepared for a slew of magical shenanigans as Ninienne works her way out of this kerfluffle!

Oops! I Broke the Wizard's Android! is a delightful adventure that was an absolute joy to read. The relationship between Andy the android and Ninienne is hilarious, competitive but the ultimate story of friendship. Together they will go through hell, literally, together, but how will they come out on the other side?

I love a book that is narrated by the author because no one knows the characters "voice' better than the imagination that they came from. It helps that Royce is a great narrator. I would highly suggest listening to this adventure!

This book was such a fun read! I would and will suggest it to all of my fantastical lovers. For an additional tidbit you should read how the author uses AI to draft this book! Overall, this is a fun read for many ages and I can't wait to see how everyone else enjoys it!

Ninienne is the apprentice to a powerful wizard. She is failing and being forgotten by her master and is replaced by an android. This makes her question her whole purpose and sense of being.

This coming of age story looks at other mysteries and secrets of her world.

For me, this was a cozy read. It if was any longer than 8 hours (like 3 for me at my listening speed) I wouldn’t have spent the time on it.

Like many other reviews, I was shocked to read at the end that AI was used as a tool to create this book and really don’t know how I feel about that. However, that didn’t impact my rating.

Narrator was the author- love that! However it was a male voice for a female main character which threw me off a bit.

Thanks to NetGalley and Victory editing for the ALC in exchange for an honest review. Out 10/1/24!

3.75⭐️
The story is fast paced. It was enjoyable. I liked the story. I wish the ending wasn’t so abruptly ended. By the 90% mark, I was figuring this was going to become a series. Which I wouldn’t have been mad about. But it just wrapped up so quickly. Which maybe for some is good. I also wish we had a little bit more from her portal training. We didn’t get to see much of that.

Thank you so much netgalley and the author Royce Roeswood for providing me with the beautiful ARC of this book. Firstly, the audio narration was outstanding!!! Kudos to the author for having such great varied voice ranges.

The story was captivating and perfect fall fun reading! The start felt very much like a great way to introduce to witchcraft and was very lighthearted. The protagonist, Ninienne shows a great character development and indeed shows the courage and strength to stand up against her wizard under whom she is the apprentice. The android, Andy plays a beautiful and essential key role. I loved how he goes human by the end of the book.
The dragon element was beautiful and the antagonist, Salagrix was a a key mystery to held and was unwound in a beautiful way! 💖 The side characters were masterpiece and I thougoughly had a lots of laugh out loud moments and gasp moments!!! It was extremely fun and super wizardly and a definite YA read!!!
