About this listen

When the world ends, humanity must fight to survive—but where others struggle in fear, Will sees only an opportunity to thrive.

April 3rd, 3:46 AM. Planet Earth merges with the magical world of Arcadia, and a system gives humanity a choice: 40 years of indentured servitude, or entering a tutorial as a user to fight against the chaos incursion.

Will doesn't hesitate—but the system thanks him for stepping into the fight by throwing him into an impossible tutorial. With little chance of survival, Will has a simple response: “Screw it. Might as well fight fire with fire."

Warning: [Corruption] has been chosen as primary attribute.

With a forbidden element, Will just might be able to stab his way out of the tutorial. But as he gains the powers of death and space as well, he realizes that his problems might not only lie in the monsters that now plague the world.

Will, now Earth's sole corruption wielder, finds danger at every corner. For anyone else, that could mean a quick and terrifying end. To him?

Maybe Will was meant for this world.

Perfect for fans of Defiance of the Fall, System Universe, and He Who Fights With Monsters—don't miss the start of the hit litRPG apocalypse series with a million views on Royal Road!

strong start, gets bogged down

there's a lot of good and cool stuff and ideas in the book, and it's definitely worth checking out. I just felt the magic system was needlessly complicated to the point it made following the character's progression, build, and battles more difficult.

Evil'ish MC

Will isn’t outright evil, but he’s definitely not sad about murder-hoboing his way through life after the apocalypse. So if you like an MC who doesn’t have a huge amount of moral fiber and a class that thrives on corruption and poisons/afflictions then this might be for you. Honestly it reminds me a bit of HWFWM mixed with Primal Hunter maybe? Lot of bad juju being inflicted and there’s gods choosing people as champions etc.

very well written, love the story line and the audio is great.

I love the book so far, I'm 46 chapters in and loving it, but there have been quit a few audio errors and many words or sentences have repeated 3 or more times, I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced this or if it's just me. Over all great book though.

Great book

Great book I couldn’t stop listening to it. Anxiously awaiting for the second book in the series.

heavily inspired

while I did enjoy the book it is heavily inspired by hwfwm and the primal hunter. I do enjoy the story and intend to read the rest of them but it is very clearly a mix of the two books

it's like HWFWM and Primal hunter had a baby

Will is definitely a character to talk about, get thrown into a tutorial and immediately have errors let's not forget the racist elves and the gods that wants to play games. there is no sad I can't kill people trope with this dude he accepts what he got to do and.... well you will see when you read it

Similar to hwfwm but without the gripping story

It was difficult to get through. Still going to give the second book a try to see if it gets any better. Great performance by the narrator. It is hard to give life to 1 dimensional characters

Odd choices

Male narrator uses the same voice for a internal monologue, and spoken words so it can be confusing at times. Over all though its a middle of the pack book, nothing really stands out or hooks the reader. DNF.
