About this listen

Hot elf girls, magic powers, and an inter-dimensional spaceship. What more could a nerd ask for?

When Theodore visited the new animatronic strip club in town, he didn't expect the elves the facility was famous for to be actual flesh-and-blood elves. And he definitely didn't expect to find an inter-dimensional phone booth tucked away in the back room. But find them he did, and before he knew it he'd been sent to a strange and exotic land.

Among The Ten Thousand Worlds, power is free for any with the will and talent to take it. Here, elves practice immortal cultivation, gathering power to increase their personal strength and pursue eternal life. Theo must survive and gather allies, with whom he may just be able to build the greatest clan of all time, all while growing the mysterious power of the game-like interface passed down to him by the alien wizard, and the spaceship he has inherited.

Contains mature themes.

A very enjoyable adventure

A great plot, with amazing “plot”. I like the story and am eager to read the sequel. I like the mc, the potential world building and exploring the storyline.

Almost not dissappointing

The narrator did a pretty good job. The author however needs to avoid some bad writing habits in his sentence structure, grammar and word choice. A little more editing and the book would have been more enjoyable. I may listen to the next book to see if he improves

This was Just OK

This story started out it was quite fascinating and as it went on I found it to be quite enjoyable but soon it took some stupid twist. I know many people would enjoy the overall story but I personally don’t like stories well the only reason the main character survives is because of stupid coincidences or literally acts of God. The main character started off to be quite cautious and very careful in his actions but by the halfway point of the story he started to do stupid and ridiculous things that would just get himself into trouble. It comes across like his entire personality changed in someway.

Solid

If you're a fan of isekai/harem style fantasy then this is probably for you. Erotic scenes are somewhat few and far in between, so if that's what you were looking for you might wanna keep searching. Overall it's a fun read that shouldn't be taken too seriously.

a solid story line. and narration

over all well done. there are a few hick-ups in the story progression but if your looking to be entertained this did it. and in my opinion a bit better then other "featured " authors on audible. voice acting was good though he seemed to fall out of caricature at times. it made me go back and double check who's line it was in my head. so not the most fluid but if he read another book it wouldn't deter me from picking it up. its not 5 stars only because the root ball of this story can go anywhere and it seems kind of scattered so as a whole not the best I've heard but still good. I guess there is too much" wait and see " or oh let's see how it goes feeling to the book. not quite a Mary Sue but a touch to fluid to be called strong. I will see what the next book has to offer. And I will thank the people involved for the work they put in to this title.

Decent Isekai

Decent isekai style novel. Maybe a little heavy handed in the "Male Fantasy" aspect, but not bad. I just can't get over the fact that it propagates the rumor that the hymen is a virginity indicator, though.

Performance: Unless you can do voices like Jim Dale, or have a full cast 4 stars is max, and good work overall.

Story is a bit rudimentary and often choppy

The narrative is a bit whimsical and often graphic, but the story has some great characters to pull you in deeper. The performer adds a lot to the story, but not enough to cover the glaring lack of detail outside the pubescent sexual gratuitous descriptions. That being said the story quickly gets to the heart of the lost and confused main character who is charming and relatable. There is a feeling of a much bigger story that has not even scratched the surface when the book is over. It leaves you wanting more, finely a new take in litrpg/Isekai genre. heart for any teenage male.

good story

I picked this book up on a whim while browsing and I wasn't disappointed I love the magic system and its evolution with that being said this is definitely a harem book series with great sex scenes and a good story I have to say though the mc is book smart he over all is kinda dumb when it comes to some decisions but he openly admits he's out of his depth and trys to make up for his ignorance given the situation which is a big plus, over all I loved the book and am looking forward to more
