terrible audio quality for the male voice actor

Revisado: 06-04-24

I got an hour through before I couldn't deal any more. the premis isn't bad, but the execution is painful. I don't mind a harem fantasy but this is slapping you in the face in the first 15 mins and dropping into cleshays in the next 30.

great banter

Revisado: 09-06-23

Eric upland knocked it out of the park with this new addition to the universe. excellent interplay between the two mcs with a fast paced storyline make for a very satisfying read. definitely well worth the credit spent. if you like the good guys and the bad guys series you will love this.

great system apoc style lit rpg.

Revisado: 05-19-21

does a great job of hooking you and keeping you interested. the mc is strong but believable and screws up and is challenged enough to keep the marty stue aura from being placed.

over powered marty stu mc

Revisado: 05-07-21

don't bother it's not good, like really not good, like absolutely terrible. The main character is absurdly overpowered, has near omniscient knowledge, defeats anything and everyone in seconds and never faces any actual challenge or struggle at any point within the book. for example with a single spell he suppresses an entire city and brings them to judgment where the city leadership is forced to confess its crimes and are assigned punishments.
the villains are one-dimensional and implausible, for example the Elven City Lord who obstruct and blocks them from speaking with the elders is named avarice oh, this one is also easily defeated with the flick of a finger. and to make things even worse the rules of the universe into warp around the main character, for example the Goblins are obsessed with explosives and express themselves artistically with explosions yet they have no idea what fireworks are until the main character of course explains it to them. combine that with near childlike morality plays in which obviously the villains are racists, because you know racists are bad and we should be diverse and inclusive and obviously we're better off being diverse and inclusive by the way did you know racism is bad? of course the merchants are greedy and absurdly stupid for example ordering their men to attack the guy who just single-handedly defeated the Beast that was threatening the entire Caravan because we can make money don't you know! by the way did you know greed is bad? Of course you did! the entire book reads like a Tumblr blog from a sjw writer who was rejected by Marvel. I had some hopes that this would be decent the premise had potential but dear God it was like fingernails on chalkboard.

mc is a marty stu

Revisado: 04-09-21

this book gets a two-star from me, the narrator is decent but the main character is a textbook example of a Marty Stu which takes what was a strong start and turns it into a bit of a slog as you watch the main character steam roll through every challenge and hand wave every problem. all of this and absolutely minimal character development, he's supposed to be a retired special ops Soldier but no actual effort is put into growing him as a person and a character other than increasing his power level.
what makes it even worse is the lack of thought put into the World building, for example its a medieval technology World however they don't know about crossbows? the nobility is made up of Mages yet nobody has actual defenses against Mages? the king of a kingdom which has threatened on all sides and is marrying his daughter off to strike a political Alliance doesn't have an intelligence service? , that same King travels with his Queen, and his crown princess into a potentially hostile foreign country with just 100 men acting as bodyguards? and the impression I get is these men aren't even Elite they're just regular soldiers drawn from the king's Army. these are just a few examples of the lazy world and character building.
overall it's not the worst book I've listened to on Audible , and I did manage to finish but I also regret spending the credit on this book. you might have a different experience however I cannot give this my actual recommendation. two stars due to a strong start which had a lot of potential but fell flat

very well done

Revisado: 03-29-19

fantastic game lit with well-written characters in a fairly unique setting.. the narrator also does a fantastic job and I am looking forward to the next book in the series. if you like litrpg and gamelit you won't be disappointed. Even if you're not a fan of those genres the story is good enough for you to ignore the game mechanics.

now with less lip snapping

Revisado: 02-23-19

feels like the author listened to my review of his previous work, x snapped his/her lips rarely appeared making the listening experience much better. if you're this far in the series you know what you're getting, solid litrpg.

I seriously hope the author reads this

Revisado: 10-10-18

the book isn't bad, however there is one matter I wish to raise with the author I don't know if he's conscious of it or not. Please for the love of God stop using the phrase snapped his lips, this particular line pops up dozens of times throughout every chapter it seems in every single conversation the character has somebody ends up snapping their lips. learn a different remote for your writing sir.
