Love and hate that you leave us hanging every time
I love the world you're creating and the compassionate characters that you're centering the story around. But I need more. 126 Pages was done in one day. Now I have to wait months, which I will. Under protest

Awesome
I love these books. They are never very long but they are so good I always drop whatever I'm reading to read them first.

A joyful read
The author of the series has an uncanny ability to abuse his stories with a wholesomeness, a positive joyful outlook. He also writes a compelling story that’s fun.
The main protagonist while being completely OP, is unaware of that fact. They are genuinely humble and happy person who is experiencing life through a joyful and positive worldview.
Even in situations that should be filled with parallel, that positive outlook makes a difference.
The book is packed with characters you can care about, villains you can dislike, serious situations that allow for character development, and a decent amount of world building.
The only thing I dislike about these books is that they’re too short. Well, each book is self-contained, with no cliffhanger, each story builds on the other similar to how an old school serialized book would happen.
Oh, you should read this book, but only after reading the first four. And make sure you block some time out on your schedule. There’s a good chance you’re not going to want to put the book down.

This book is the fifth in a snack sized serial about Wumble a corgi that has been bonded with his human at the same time as being secretly super powered. They are snack sized in that you only get one little piece of the adventure in each serial. They are delightful, fun and a great little read.
This one finds Wanda and Wumble recovering from the disaster that had struck Kalamuz in the last episode. As the town rebuilds her team gathers to go and take on a side quest while a less than scrupled alchemist works to find her to embrace her success for himself.
Another delight, I will always await the next Rover Powered episode with delight.

these feel too short
Reading it free as part of kindle unlimited is less that the book is worth. But that said, I don’t like the asking price to own it either. It’s like an hour read and I never know what that should cost.
I enjoyed the series to date, but if it was a single book would I be as happy? I don’t know. It’s a little shallow, as the joke that the dog is the overpowered MC and that power is slowly bleeding into his owner has overstayed.
I want more, but not as short books. One nicely woven overall narrative knowing it’s got 500+ pages to pace itself and hold it all together.

Ah! One of my favorite fantasy series. Imagine an budding, shy, alchemist, Wanda, and her cute dog Wumbles.
Wumbles becomes superpowered by swallowing a magical ball from outer space. Wanda bonds him as a familiar and slowly acquires his powers.
Wanda is very humble and always attributes her success to Wumbles or other wizards. But she is loyal to her group of misfit friends and they bond as a team.
But people are out looking for her, and making her power their own.
This is aside from the magical monsters they have to fight.
I highly recommend this as light, amusing fantasy.

Wanda and team need money, so they go on a collection quest for special flowers
What I enjoyed most:
* I love Wanda and Wumble interacting with the team
* Learning more about the team's abilities
* We now have a human villain
What could have been better:
* I think all these books have been too short, but this is the first time I felt like we didn't get a complete story.

May 28, 2026Another wonderful continuation of the RoverPowered Series. A lighthearted, campy, and emotionally powerful series, RoverPowereds continues to be another staple of Drew Hayes' ability to write and just improve with every book.
Absolutely delightful new entries to the shenanagins of Wanda and Wumble. I love these characters so much and with the stakes picking up, I am so excited to see where this adventure goes.

A fun magical adventure series
I would call this a cozy magical series. It’s about a young woman who has a corgi as a familiar who is learning to be an alchemist. I won’t ruin the plot, but I will tell you that this is a series about magic, friendship, working hard and improving, helping one another, and learning new things. I absolutely adore this series and my biggest problem is waiting for the next one to come out.

Wanda has another fun adventure and she finds herself exploring magic that is strange and fascinating. And she's attracting the attention of people who don't have her best interest at heart.
This whole series has been fun - but the books are too short! I want to more about what is happening with Wanda and Wumble (and their friends). I see the author has collected the first four into a single volume.

Soooooooo good, even a bit Cozy!
These bite-sized novelletts are perfect for a morning commute. Or really anytime you're in the mood to join up with Wanda, Wumble her strong adorable Familiar, and her team. This book was less about Alchemy, zeroing in on collecting and fighting Occorites. But Kurlain, a management level member of the Alchemist union, is now on the hunt for Wanda! He wants her under his control.
So yeah grab the book and bask in a little CozySauce!

Continuing story
This slice of (a wizard's) life story is a lot like reading a serial, it continues on volume after volume. The incongruity is that no one, including our young wizard, realizes her exceptional level of talent and power, at least so far, except for (maybe) the villian who shows up in this volume. Still, it's an unassuming and entertaining story, with more episodes to follow.

Great young adult series
I always enjoy Drew's books and this series is no exception. This is a great read and ment for younger readers but still a joy to those of us that like all of his work. I would point out that if a younger reader wishes to read his other works please note they all would hit PG or PG13 ratings as movies.

Enter the villain
Book 5 of the Tales of an Aspiring Alchemist series. Our duo is back with their team of misfits. This book serves as a builder for the series, creating a villain for the story as well as giving us more backstory on the team. Also, we are now setting off past the student phase to the adventure. Looking forward to book 6 and beyond.

Hayes does it again!!!
Per usual Drew Hayes tells a stellar yarn. Well done! I have been a long time reader and am thankful that Drew keeps producing such great stories.
This particular book does a great job of bringing about not only the increase of Wanda and Wumble’s powers, but also more of their character.
Looking forward to the next one!

A Delightful Read
Wanda and Wumble are among my favourite characters, and any new adventure or theirs is worth savouring. I could only wish that the author chose to tell their stories in a longer novel format rather than novellas. The only thing better than Roverpowered would be more Roverpowered!

Good sequel episode but too short
This was closer to novella than novel in length. Enjoyed it quite well because Drew does a wonderful job of character building. Seems Op but that the device here.

So very wholesome
I love this series of novellas so far. The relationship between Wanda and Wumble is so heartwarming. There's plenty of action, intrigue, and friendship. Fantastic main characters and worthy companions.

Adorable as always! I cannot seem to get enough of Wanda and Wumble in Roverpowered. Certainly wouldn't mind the next book being 500 pages 😉... Drew Hayes, if you're reading this... Please sir, can I have some more?

Love it
I've really enjoyed this series, I wish they weren't so short but that's how they are written. I can't wait (even though I have to) for the next booklet. Some background and secrets of the main group were gone over.

Another entertaining adventure for Wanda and Wumble. Perhaps a little less meat on the bones in this book than some of the others, but I still enjoyed it. Sometimes Wanda frustrates me with her apparent cluelessness when she's so smart in other ways. Really, I mostly read the series for Wumble!

Good Fun
Wanda and Wumble continue their improbable and comedic journey. A corrupt politician stumbles upon a piece of their secrets and zanniness ensues.
