About this listen
Bran was one of the first to purchase a full immersion Virtual Reality Pod that he calls the Coffin, but over a century later, ironically, he finds himself part of the one percent that does not live virtually. He sleeps in a real bed and eats real food and only jumps into Neuroma to work.
All he wanted was to log in, work, and log out and live in general obscurity. Getting the attention of a CEO, meeting a stranger in real life, and forced to play in a secret game of corporations were not penciled into his calendar. While that was bad, he started to question whether Odditek was still in control, or had their complacency created the noose tightening around their neck.
Bran was not yet aware of the choice before him. He could no longer stand back and watch, and he had to pick a side and fight before he lost the ability to choose. Would he recognize the inevitable in time? Was it possible to make a "correct" choice, or had the lines blurred so much that hero and villain were indistinguishable?

After dying and being reborn into a world that's built like a video game, Jim has found himself stuck in a very old-world style new-player zone for low-level adventurers. Unfortunately, the zone fell out of use centuries ago, and no one told the monsters they were supposed to take it easy on the Noobs. Even worse, the only new player around is Jim. Jim has been given an opportunity, and he'll do his best to take advantage of it.

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

A world on the precipice of the apocalypse. A secret forged in the flames of war. A chance to start over. For John Sutton, only one of those three things matters. Retired from a decade of brutal war, he wants nothing more than a quiet pastoral life while he does his best to stem the steady increase of his Doom Points before they hit 100, signaling the start of the end. He’s been given a small farm on the outskirts of the empire as a thanks for his service, but no matter how far he travels, it's impossible to escape the war's devastating effects on the world.

An experimental ASI with a terminal case of curiosity reached out and tampered with the universe in a way that it should not have, and unleashed a torrent of energy we would call magic into our galaxy. Humans, and every other intelligent lifeform for that matter, were ill-prepared, physically and mentally, for such an eventuality. In an effort to save itself, the ASI hastily created something it called the Framework to shape and codify this magical energy, and usher in a new world. A world of classes, levels, and extraordinary power. But also a world of monsters.

Eddie Marr never planned to be a supervillain, but it seemed like a surefire way to become rich and famous. All he had to do was come up with a flashy costume, a signature gimmick, and commit a couple of high profile (yet nonviolent) crimes. Eddie figured he'd eventually get caught and spend a year or two in a minimum security prison. Then he'd write a tell-all book, do the talk show circuit, and parlay that into a regular TV hosting gig.

Mixed bag. Grows on you.
1st. Narration is great. Good characters, dialogue seems natural and flows.
2nd the core concept of the “office wars” works and is well done.
Gripes: the first third of the book had some out of context cut scenes that felt confusing and disjointed. “Is that the same person as the MC? Where does it fit in the timeline?
The first third of the book has too much swearing (I’m Australian).
And the MC kinda crosses the line from quirky smart-ass, to just ass a few times.
Worth a look? Yes.
Will i be continuing? Yes.

A short but wonderful listen. I read this book a year or two ago but Eric really put life in the characters. Im still trying to figure out if their world is a post apocalyptic nightmare or a euphoric next step for humanity. Not super crunchy but a great story

ridiculous and highly entertaining!!!
Great story and narration!
A story about a coma patient who has access to virtual reality in a world we're very few people ever log out from virtual reality. Is he crazy? Has his mind been overwritten by an AI? his minders are not sure, but all hell is about to break loose!
Eric does a fantastic job with the narration!
I was a little bit skeptical about this one at first but it is freaking gold!!!
I can't wait to find out what happens next!

Gonna be honest...
At first, I didn't think I would like this but almost reluctantly I started reading but almost put it down due to the first chapter. But by the 3rd chapter, I was totally hooked. I was so hooked that I immediately purchased 3 credits just so I could purchase books 2 and 3.
Fun-ion (sp?) is hilarious, I'm laughing just thinking about him and Eric Bryan Moore did an excellent job of voicing all the characters with such beautifully droll inflections that really brought all the characters to such vivid life.
Absolutely, hands down, one of my top favorite series.

The Office meets the Running Man
"Office Wars: The Mailroom Clerk" by James Patton, narrated by the talented Eric Bryan Moore, takes us on a rollercoaster ride of humor, intrigue, and thought-provoking questions about the blurred lines between reality and technology. Clocking in at just the right length, this audiobook provides an enthralling experience that will leave you craving more.
The story introduces us to Bran, a character who is anything but your typical hero. He's not a brave warrior or a genius inventor. Instead, he's a mailroom clerk who, ironically, shuns the virtual world, preferring to live in the real one. His existence revolves around working in Neuroma, a virtual reality setting where most of humanity resides permanently. Bran's simple desire is to log in, work, and log out, hoping to remain in obscurity. However, fate has other plans for him.
What follows is a narrative that can be described as a fusion of "Ready Player One" and the tower-climbing litRPG genre. The story isn't overly focused on heavy stat tracking, making it an excellent entry point for newcomers to the genre. The true highlight of this audiobook is the exceptional voice acting by Eric Bryan Moore. His narration brings the characters to life, injecting humor and emotion into every scene.
One of the audiobook's strengths lies in its ability to resonate with anyone who has experienced the monotony of office life. If you've ever worked in a cubicle or office environment while watching 80s and 90s movies, this book will hit home. It seamlessly blends elements of GameLit and Slice of Life genres, making it a delightful and relatable experience for listeners.
The "Office Wars" concept within the story is both intriguing and comical. After the Corporate Wars ravaged society, corporations now compete in the virtual realm for power, money, and influence. Players are selected from the company's staff to participate in these virtual battles, and the results are often hilariously unpredictable.
The humor in "Office Wars: The Mailroom Clerk" is undeniably one of its standout features. James Patton's writing is filled with witty dialogues, clever quips, and situational humor that will have you chuckling throughout the audiobook. The overall theme of the story is not just about a virtual world but also about the absurdities of corporate culture and the dynamics of human interaction in the digital age.
While Bran is undoubtedly the main character (MC), or as he's humorously referred to, "onion," there's more to the story than meets the eye. The narrative unfolds to reveal multiple protagonists, each with their unique qualities and secrets. This adds depth to the story and keeps the listener engaged as they uncover the mysteries of the characters' lives.
One of the audiobook's most compelling aspects is its exploration of the relationship between technology, humanity, and sentient technology. It draws inspiration from the likes of William Gibson and Philip K. Dick, blurring the lines between humans and the machines they've created. It raises thought-provoking questions about the distinctions between human serfs and sentient intelligences, all while leaving room for readers to ponder these matters on their own.
In a refreshing departure from the norm, "Office Wars: The Mailroom Clerk" doesn't neatly categorize itself as a litRPG. While it lacks extensive character development and skill acquisition, it more than compensates with its engaging storytelling, humor, and exploration of complex themes.
To sum it up, Eric Bryan Moore's narration is top-notch, elevating the audiobook to another level. His ability to capture the humor and nuances of the characters is commendable. James Patton's writing, on the other hand, is a delightful blend of wit and satire, making this audiobook an enjoyable and thought-provoking experience.
"Office Wars: The Mailroom Clerk" is a must-listen for anyone seeking a hilarious and insightful journey into a virtual world that mirrors our own in surprising ways. Whether you're a fan of litRPG or simply enjoy a good story with memorable characters, this audiobook has something to offer. Prepare to be entertained, challenged, and thoroughly engrossed in a world where the boundaries between reality and technology blur in the most unexpected ways. Don't miss out on this gem of a tale!
