Publisher's summary
100 tons of walking steel. One human heart.
Sgt. Reggie King wakes up from a battlefield injury to find himself physically intact. But the hospital staff insist he’s not fit to return to duty. As part of his psychological recovery, they introduce him to a game.
Armored Souls is a tank game on steroids. Giant walking mechs called juggernauts engage in interplanetary wars as noble houses and mercenary factions wage endless battles for supremacy. For the pilots of these juggernauts, the rewards are glory, cash, and XP.
What follows is an epic struggle against the forces arrayed against him, from rival gamers to entire factions looking, to crush Reggie underfoot. To survive will take all his military leadership, perseverance, and maybe a little help from some new friends.
The Armored Souls series is perfect for listeners looking for a combination of The Matrix and Battletech. If you enjoy giant robots blasting at each other and swinging 20-ton swords, you’ll love these books.
Log out of your life and into Armored Souls.

The war against the vampires has taken its toll; cities lie in ruin, the countryside is fragmented into small villages and fiefdoms that still struggle against nightly raids by the fallen vampires - and the remnants of their genetically manufactured demons and werewolves.

Geary believed in the Alliance. Even when he uncovered overwhelming evidence that the highest echelons of the government and fleet command were involved in secret programs and prison camps, he believed it was worth saving.

Charlie7 is the progenitor of a mechanical race he built from the ashes of a dead world—Earth. He is a robot of leisure and idle political meddling—a retirement well-earned. Or he was, until a human girl named Eve was dropped in his lap. Geneticists have restored Earth’s biome and begun repopulation. But primate cloning is in its infancy; human cloning is banned. Far from a failed genetics experiment, Eve is brilliant, curious, and heartbreakingly naïve about her species’ history. But Eve’s creator wants her back and has a gruesome fate planned for her.

In the 20th century Earth sent probes, transmissions, and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy. As most of the local worlds were too civilized to have a proper army, the only valuable service Earth could provide came in the form of soldiers....

The plot by the Galactic Union’s Mercenary Guild against the Four Horsemen has culminated in an invasion of Earth. Faced with an overwhelming force, the human mercs had no choice. They’ve fled, leaving Sansar Enkh to go to the Mercenary Guild headquarters on Capital Planet to stand trial for humanity. On the run, Jim Cartwright and Nigel Shirazi have travelled to the Winged Hussars’ secret base of New Warsaw, in an effort to convince Alexis Cromwell to join the fight, while the other mercenaries who escaped the fall of Earth have gone to the perceived safe haven of Karma.

As of last night, he has a passenger in his brain - an ancient alien life-form called Tao, whose race crash-landed on Earth before the first fish crawled out of the oceans. Over the millennia his people have trained human heroes to be great leaders, to advance our species at a rate far beyond what it would have achieved on its own. Split into two opposing factions - the peace-loving, but under-represented Prophus, and the savage, powerful Genjix - the aliens have been in a state of civil war for centuries.

Great LitGame
Awesome mecha, was surprised they put in a PTSD element but glad it wasn’t the focus. Was half expecting the tournament arc and faction arc to be switched. Totally could’ve took this series into a more moral dilemma in corporate ethics. The narrator kept mispronouncing the Japanese words. But overall enjoyed this series.

I’m happy that these titles were sold as one credit. I would have paid three just to finish. Great story, interesting characters, and a narrator just plain killin it. The story is no revelation… just plain fun. Please make more.

A solid armored souls book, but I wish there had been at least two more books if not five more books in between book 2, and book 3. In the last chapter there is at least an opening for a potential spin off into a new series

It gets better as you go
This seemed like an interesting buy. There books combined into one for a pretty good runtime.
The setting is a generic litrpg, but on a very battletech/MechWarrior theme - similar enough to get your bearings if you are familiar with that.
However the story gets better as it moves along and the final book of this combo.is nonstop arena action - I couldn't put it down.
The story is great, without any logical or setup errors. At one point I was even considering the principle of the ship of Theseus as it comes to people's identity.
The narrator also does a very good job with the characters - no complaints here.
If you are looking for a great story with a great credit/runtime ratio, you are sure to like this.

Good value for a single credit but mediocre in terms of actual story
In a simulated world our characters fight for no stakes because why not? The main characters are a fairly bland group playing a video game more out of habit than desire and they usually only seem to marginally even enjoy it.

Outstanding
From beginning to end, this trilogy has made me smile and laugh, at the end, I felt empty though, as if there's more to do with the world the book is set in.
It'd be amazing to have the series continue on from where this ended. There's so much more to what the author has made.

A solid and fun tactical LitRPG series.
As a fan of Battletech, Armored Core, etc., I enjoyed this series. The dynamic was interesting, the characters were fun, and each book’s central theme kept me engaged through to the end.
There are a LOT of battles. And some really don’t matter or contribute much to the story progressing. But overall I enjoyed feeling a sense of being on the ground, in the mech with King. The story outside of Armored Souls is pretty solid too, if a bit nonsensical sometimes.
Some minor gripes include the main characters not switching their mechs out almost at all over the series, and a lot of number fluff to pad pages. I could have done with less “Chance to hit”, “Eliminate Enemy Juggernauts: X/XX”, countdowns, and so on. I know it’s a LitRPG, but I would have preferred the UI talk be toned down as series went on. Otherwise, it was a fun read.

I enjoyed the story, the characters and the concepts. And the final 5 minutes of the third book left me wanting more!!
