Raise your blade. Take up the mantle of Slayer.

Adam's life was anything but easy. With people at both school and home eager to make his life a living hell, the only place he felt like himself was in the virtual world. At least there he had some control.

When the newest VRMMORPG title gets announced, Adam and his best friend, Max, are more than ready to dive in. Launch day arrives quickly, and Adam is plunged into a world that's more immersive than anything he's experienced before. Although the game offers a bevy of character choices, Adam quickly chooses the title of Slayer, a class that specializes in taking down stronger, more difficult opponents.

Adam begins his adventure, but it's not long before he realizes there's much more at stake when taking a life in this new game. The pain is very real, and death...is permanent. Now, trapped in a virtual world, Adam must take the mantle of Zander Darkblade and brave the dangers of the Aether Gate.

It is a world of mighty creatures and fallen gods. A world where powerful familiars bond with their masters, granting them extraordinary powers they wield with uncanny force...and as Adam and the others will soon discover, it is a world of secrets that have lain hidden for far too long....

Great story, the narrator did a decent job. But I only say decent cause the last book I listened to had a full cast, sound effects, and music; which nothing short of a movie can beat that. definitely a good book though!

Great story

Pretty simple, for one credit, getting the complete saga; not bad. Bit misleading it being classified as LitRPG. It has some elements the author occasionally remembers to bring up every now and then. Almost used to quantify power growth levels at certain points. Exp is not tracked(rarely mentioned like oh hey you leveled up 3/4x from killing this X entity), no grinding of skills or abilities, etc.
Not a bad series overall, just didn’t catch my full attention but a few times here and there.
Hope this review will help you out!

This is a great saga. Here you have in one spot the complete Aether Gate trilogy. A fine LITRPG with an awesome narrator. I have many of J. Scott Bennett’s narrated storied and count them amongst my favorites. Here you get almost thirty hours of awesome LITRPG. The Mc finds himself trapped in a world with death will now be permanent. You can bond with families that grant special powers his class? Slayer which evolves through three special
Forms granting more power each time. This saga rivals the works of brooks shannara and many others. The MC must make allies, go upon quests, and of course, save the world. Great action, great leveling Mc system, unique bonding with unique rewards. Overall a great adventure and one helluva deal to get all of them for one credit!!! I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator or publisher

I really liked this series, it had a good ending. It was a very fast paced series with alot of action. I feel like this series was better than adept archives and vagrant sword. aether gate online is a very well written series that hits all the right spots.


Let's talk about the narrator, He's okay. I feel like he got better each book, but he's only still okay. He has different voices at his disposal, but I think there are plenty of better narrators for this book. I do believe he performed it as well as he could, so for that I'll give the Narration a 4.3 star.


Now let's talk about the characters, I actually think there written very well, throughout all the books i feel they grew as people. I feel like they had depth and unique personalities, I also feel like they all had flaws in there character. Alot of people said the Mc was whiny, I disagree to a extent. I think in the first book he was kind of whiney, but as the story went on I believe he grew out of that. He for sure became a badass in the last book. I do think the mc was is also well written, he grew like the rest of them.
I believe all together the characters deserve a 5 star.
I also want to talk about the mcs skillset, I really like it. his skillset is exactly what I've wanted for a while, and I feel like Darren wrote it perfectly. The other characters also have good skillsets. I do like them, but not as much as the Mc. I also mentioned this book was fast paced, well it is. it also has alot of action, so much action. the action has to be a 5 star. it's like fight to fight. it's detailed and not very drawn out, it's very entertaining to read and I honestly think anyone will like it.

The plot is also pretty good, I feel like it has depth, it doesn't have good foreshadowing. But I still like it, it follows without much guidance from the author, and the ending was pretty satisfactory. I also feel like it got better every book.
Now let's talk about the world building, I think it's pretty good. it's detailed, and I like the world itself. it's also really unique.
i rate the plot a 4, and the world building a 4.


I recommend this big hunk of a big to anyone who likes litrpgs. I feel like it's worth it just with the length alone, but with everything else it's totally worth it and more.
I coulda done with a better narrator, but the current one was alright. i honestly can't wait to read whatever Darren writes in the future!!!.

Probably Darren's best
