Randidly Ghosthound Book 15 Is Out: All 15 Books in Order

8 min readBy LevelUpShelf EditorialLast reviewed

TL;DR: Fifteen books, read 1 to 15. Books 1 to 14 are on Audible (MacLeod Andrews, Podium Audio, 366 h 3 m in total). Book 15 is an Aethon ebook from August 26, 2026 with no audiobook date yet; recent books waited 76 to 104 days for audio.

Read The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound by number, and know the newest one is ebook-only: Randidly Ghosthound book 15 came out on August 26, 2026, and Audible still had no audiobook for it on October 24. That is 15 books and 10,831 Aethon pages, or 14 audiobooks and 366 hours 3 minutes of MacLeod Andrews. The cost is the wait: audio has trailed the ebooks by up to 195 days. Below: the order, both dates for every book, the audio gap, and what readers warn about book 1.

Key Takeaways

  • 15 ebooks, 14 audiobooks on our check date.
  • Book 15 audio: only a placeholder on Audible, no date, no narrator listed.
  • Same narrator throughout: MacLeod Andrews on all fourteen audiobooks.
  • Audio used to be same-day: books 1 to 4 came out on Audible and Kindle together; book 7 waited 195 days.
  • Long books: book 14 alone is 1,162 pages and 31 h 47 m.

Overview

The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound is a LitRPG series by Noret Flood, who also writes as puddles4263. Aethon Books publishes the ebooks and paperbacks; Podium Audio publishes the audiobooks. Aethon's page for book 15 calls it "Book 15 of the hit LitRPG Fantasy series with over 50 Million views on Royal Road."

The setup, from Audible's summary of book 1: "Randidly Ghosthound felt lost and alone even before the System transformed the Earth." Then, "Randidly starts in an isolated dungeon". That is a system-apocalypse start, the same family as Defiance of the Fall. Nothing below goes past that premise.

Desk note: Commitment: A-rank. Fifteen books come to 10,831 pages on Aethon's pages, and the fourteen audiobooks to 366 hours 3 minutes. Book 14 by itself (1,162 pages) is longer than books 3 and 4 put together (1,014).

Ratings rise a little after book 1, but later books are rated mostly by readers who chose to continue. Read that as "people who stay are happy", not as proof the series gets better.

Step-by-Step: How to Read The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound

1. Start with book 1: 574 pages, or 23 hours 9 minutes on Audible.

2. Read books 2 to 15 by number. Every title is the series name plus a number, and we found no side novels, prequels or short-story collections on Aethon, Podium or Audible.

3. Pick a format by how current you want to be. Readers can have book 15 today. Listeners stop at book 14 for now.

4. Watch for the book 15 audiobook. Our release calendar lists audiobooks once Audible or the publisher gives a date.

Randidly Ghosthound Book 15: Ebook Out, Audiobook Pending

Aethon dates book 15 to August 26, 2026, at 859 pages, as an ebook and a paperback. On Audible, the book 15 entry is a placeholder: its publisher reads "ZZZ - Series Advisor Placeholder", with no release date, no length and no narrator. Podium's series page lists titles up to book 14.

So there is no audio date to give you. What the table does show is the recent rhythm. Books 11 to 14 reached Audible 76 to 104 days after their ebooks. On October 24, book 15 had been out for 59 days. We'll add the date when Audible or Podium lists it, not before.

The Audiobooks: MacLeod Andrews

MacLeod Andrews reads all fourteen audiobooks for Podium Audio, and Podium's series page calls the format "Single Narration". Our sum of Audible's lengths is 366 hours 3 minutes. Podium's own series page says 366 hours 12 minutes, nine minutes more; we use the Audible figure.

The books got longer. The first four run 20 to 24 hours each. From book 5 on, every audiobook is 23 to 32 hours, and book 14 is the longest at 31 hours 47 minutes.

So did the wait. Books 1 to 4 came out on Audible the same day as the ebook. Book 5 waited 35 days. Books 7 to 9 each waited more than six months. Since book 11 the wait has been about three months. Compare The Primal Hunter, another Aethon series, where books 13 to 15 waited 147 to 189 days.

What Readers Say

Readers split over the start. u/completelycasualasmr, in an October 2026 r/litrpg thread, said book 1 is a hurdle that pays off: "Yeah book 1 is rough and so was randidly ghost hound but that gets pretty good too." (comment, October 21, 2026).

u/completelycasualasmr, r/litrpg, Oct 21, 2026 · Read it on Reddit

Others never got there. In a thread titled "Just make the MC a good guy, bro", u/amusedmb715 explained a cold main character is "why i couldnt enjoy primal hunter or randidly." (comment). If a distant lead puts you off, test book 1 before you commit 366 hours.

Tips Before You Start

  • Give book 1 its full length. The reader quotes above disagree on the start, and book 1 is 23 hours on audio.
  • Listening? Budget for a wait at the end. You will hit the end of book 14 while readers are already on book 15.
  • Read only the next blurb. Later blurbs give away earlier books.
  • Track your place: the series page lists the audiobooks with a checklist.

Our take

Our pick: start book 1 on audio, then decide by book 3. The first three audiobooks are 68 hours 10 minutes, still under a fifth of the series, and they came out with the ebooks. If the lead works for you, the other 298 hours are waiting.

Skip it (for now) if: you need a finished story; there is no end announced, and book 15 has no audio date.

What we don't know yet: when the book 15 audiobook comes out. On October 24, 2026 Audible had only a placeholder.

How we checked this

On October 24, 2026 we read Audible's catalog data for all fourteen audiobooks and the book 15 placeholder (narrator, length, date, publisher, rating), Podium's series page, and the Aethon Books page for each of the fifteen books (ebook date, page count, ASIN). Days, sums and page totals are our arithmetic. The reader comments come from r/litrpg in October 2026, read through the Arctic Shift archive. We have not read the series ourselves. Amazon's Kindle pages did not load for this check, so the dates above are Aethon's.
