About this listen
Continued to do list for the post apocalypse:
4. Fall in love with the girl ordered to kill you.
5. Cash out the absolute FORTUNE you're holding so tightly that even the wrong thought could cause you to explode.
6. Keep a VERY low profile and do NOT piss off the cutthroat goblin bankers who secretly rule Freetown.
7. Especially don't piss off all your enemies with a COMPETING BANK!
8. Ignore your own advice and see what happens before unlocking perilous secrets that could reshape an entire world!

Story
Eric was as shocked as everyone else when the apocalypse struck, but unlike his mother's movie, there were no chosen heroes destined to fight the beast hordes now overrunning the planet. Just people trying desperately to survive. Yet there was a glimmer of hope that humanity could hold on to. A chosen few really could level up in this brave new world, and embrace magic, adventure, and the potential for limitless power!

That plan is thwarted from the beginning when he gets stuck with the lowest-ranked Root Card against his will, ensuring that his growth as a Duelist will always be excruciatingly slow.

When the cultivators came to Earth, they destroyed our entire civilization in a matter of hours. Armies fell, cities burned, and that was before the moon turned red and filled our world with monsters. Now, over a decade later, what's left of humanity slaves under the heels of our Qi-infused masters. The luckiest of us might even become one of them, they say—if we serve the Dynasty well enough and harness the power of Qi. But I want none of that. I'm sick of serving, and I want nothing to do with their world. Instead, I want them to pay for what they did to mine.

Vampires stalk the streets unchecked, feeding on the innocent without fear of reprisal.

Jack Mitchell knows he won't survive the impact of the massive asteroid hurtling towards Earth. He's not one of the handful of lucky lottery winners scheduled for rescue. But he did luck into a NexGenVR capsule, which means Jack can risk a one-way trip to the world of Viridan Gate Online (V.G.O.), an ultra-immersive fantasy role-playing game. Taking that leap of faith, though, means permanently trapping his mind in the game and killing his body in the process.

Our retro-tech towns might seem idyllic, yet go beyond the arcades and coffee shops and you'll reach the danger zones roamed by bionic bots. Me? I ran a video store with my cute friend Emiko. She's always been a little different, so I had to look out for her—we usually just watched movies and played games together. One day, a suspicious pink-haired chick burst into the store, warning me not to watch a tape labeled Property of Steelheart—Do Not Watch! So obviously, I did, and a terrifying ghost crawled out of the screen.

Picks right up from last book
It was a fairly good listen however there is alot of inner monologue… alot. However if you have read any other books from this author you are familiar with the writing style and already expect it. Still pretty enjoyable and though i have already read most of the series i always get the audio when its released it adds another dimension

It’s really amazing series, but there’s a lot of complaining
It’s really good book. I just find it really annoying. How half the book is him complaining about the injustice! Of all the Noble sons that get all the knowledge and benefit and us locals get nothing like I get it, but do you have to really put a couple hours worth of it in the book?

Muddled Positive Opinion
This book strays far from book 1, yes Eric continues to be the biggest supporter to his friends and those he trusts, and a cut throat maniac to those who oppose him.
The book starts out with a very and I mean EXTREMELY cheesy relationship, but hey, if the world as you knew it ended, and you just started your very first relationship with a super hot Native American badass. I would understand some of the cringe.
That relationship moves onwards to the highly spoken of Freetown. where not all is as it seems on the surface, Goblins in this story are horrible, and we get to see Eric overcome and out smart those vindictive green skinned trash, all while uplifting his friends before having to Flee the city after spewing out a true dragons horde of gold like a badass.
His flight from Freetown is where we get our overdue fighting and adventure this story claims to be packed to the rim full of. yes there were some small fights prior to this start of the middle of the book, but this is the prelude to what the readers want imo. (me and other reviewers on here) Eric is forced to run towards his mission, all while fighting off Goblin Assassin's and Orc dimwits until he is able to burst his way into a cultivators Dream Realm to save Grims Grandson.
The cultivation portion of the book seems to just Drag on the most. oh my God it drags on for hours. it all builds up and sets up Eric to an arguably pristine foundation to everything he will use to gain power. System, Cultivation, Necromancy. just how to balance all of those things?
Well after his Foundation is set, he is Thrust into a Massive fight 1 vs an entire castle full of Orcs, Classers, and Contenders, all after declaring war (enforced by the system) on his enemies, all in a desire to help his Sister and rid Earth of their Taint. and after the battle is settled, Eric pulls off some intense MC BS that is 100% plot armor that won't leave you mad at it, just mad you have to wait for the next book because Eric finally unlocks his class and profession and ditches Conscript class he'd been stuck with for over 50+ hours of this story.
The main issues with this story is pointed out wonderfully in some of the less than perfect reviews, It just repeats the same monologues about how life's not fair blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah... Holy heck M.H can you chill out on that please. but yes, the story itself out weighs the rambling of a bitter Young man angry at the cards dealt. just be quicker to get to the point where Eric will inevitably Change the deck where the cards have been dealt from. because of his insane MC BS that Eric pulls out anytime there is a Lich trying to kill him, or he stupidly pushes himself beyond anything anyone imagined.
I'll be buying and reading more from this series, but seriously this book doesn't need to be this DAMN long. a lot of monologue fluff can be culled from the story. good grief.

Not bad
The book wasn’t bad but it did have its annoying parts. The romance aspect last for a few hours and you just want it to stop the whole time. The rest of the book is a few minutes of action then an hour or so of internal dialogue. The last and for me the most annoying part is the constant complaining about how bad earth has it compared to the rich scions from other worlds. Once or twice with the complaining is ok not several times a chapter.
One good thing is they didn’t have Wayne Mitchell doing women’s voices.

A bit over the top, but a good book
If you like system apocalypse stories I'd say this is worth it. There's a lot of book for 1 credit, even if it as a pretty drawn out. I honestly think the author must be paid by the adjective given how this is written. I appreciate a detailed story but this could use a stricter editor.
Only other complaint in this is the romance. I'm usually a big fan of having a romantic relationship in these kinds of books, but this is one of the worst I've ever read. The penchant for adjectives and similies makes it extra cringy. Nevermind the fact they've know each only for a week. I found myself hitting the skip button every time it started because there would be a paragraph describing here eyes or lips or something else painful to listen too. Nothing crude though, just to be clear. Truly awful, and somehow the dialogue between them is even worse with lots of calling each other lover and heart variation...
But that's not a huge part of the book and the rest, while long winded, is very engaging.
