I was apprehensive to start this series with a new to me narrator. Now this is one of my favorite series and Noah has become one of my top favorite narrators.

Author: Abby keeps getting backseated like the stereotypical spouse/girlfriend... Sacrificial girlfriend now! I hope you give her the spotlight she deserves in future books.. she is clearly badass and very interesting.

Infinite Worlds is the most popular VRMMORPG on the market. Its maps are so vast, developer Hard Rock Data utilizes a network of highly advanced artificial intelligences to control it. But it’s not without problems. That’s why Game Masters like Jeff Driscoll have jobs. The downside? He’s not allowed to play the game. Something about conflicts of interest and favoritism. His very boring and tedious job is to help players deal with the occasional bug that slips through the cracks and ensure they enjoy their time playing enough to give a five-star rating.

Reviewed: 02-16-22
This was a really fun book and while I wanted more books, it was nice to wrap this up in one shot. I can't not rate this book 5 stars but there were a few things that bugged me, so I'll leave them in the review in hopes it helps the author and narrator.
The narration was pretty great - held its own with some of my favorite narrators in this kind of series. A little distracting at times when the narrator would pause in the middle of a sentence as if he was turning pages. It wasn't that big of a deal but did make me double take at times.
Thought the book was great but a few things just didn't feel believable to me. Like the constant outpouring of affection for the MC's family, but yet he was willing to separate himself for massive amounts of time for this extra job. It just felt a little disconnected. Also constantly telling readers why certain names were chosen because they were from his 'youth' felt repetitive.
Again only leaving this feedback for a chance of improvement. This was a fun book and I would gladly read another.

The Tournament of the Sacred Sword sounded like exactly the type of thing Keras would enjoy: a series of challenges for thousands of contestants seeking a chance to fight for the Sacred Sword of Earth. He knew there would be challenges. It wouldn’t be a high-stakes tournament without a few high-profile assassinations and mysterious murders, after all. But Keras wasn’t ready to run into someone from his homeland, and he certainly wasn’t prepared for the revelations that came from their confrontation.

just loves the story, characters and the fact that the series had a great ending, not running on forever.
Narration and sound quality are as good as, if not far better than the top game rpg style narrators.
