About this listen

When the world ends, some men find redemption in the ashes.

Aiden Wyatt was a drug dealer, a thief, and a lost cause—until the System descended on Earth. Now, in a world where stats mean survival and monsters roam the wilderness, Aiden’s criminal past is his greatest weapon. After winning the favor of a cosmic overseer, he is granted an ancient spirit of intellect and a leveling potential most can only dream of.

But power comes at a price.

Haunted by his past and driven by a hunger for more, Aiden carves a bloody path through the chaos, determined to become the most powerful warrior Earth has ever seen. He’s not the hero anyone asked for, but in a world ruled by violence, he’s the one we deserve.

Brace yourself for a LitRPG Apocalypse packed with brutal action, relentless leveling, and a flawed anti-hero who refuses to quit. If you crave overpowered protagonists, dark worlds, and progression at any cost, For fans of Road to Mastery, Savage Awakening, and Victor of Tucson, this LitRPG fantasy is raw, ruthless, and impossible to put down!

A basic start to an apocalypse LitRPG story. The MC levels fast and falls into some power that continues to grow. He spends 95% of the book solo then runs into survivors at the end. That’s when the story starts to get semi interesting. I’ll give book 2 a shot when it drops

Decent start to a series

If you like Primal Hunter, Defiance of the Fall, or anything in the LitRPG genre you'll love this epic beginning!

I’ve been a fan of this author for years, and seeing him jump into LitRPG was exciting—this book blew me away. It’s easily the best start to a LitRPG journey I’ve EVER read. The weak-to-strong progression is super satisfying, and the game mechanics are tight without getting too technical. the combat scenes are crisp and dynamic. The main character feels authentic and carries the story perfectly. The solo journey is the highlight but some additional characters seem to have a lot of potential as well. It’s everything I love about the genre, written by a technical and talented author now doing best best work yet.

Final Verdict:
If you're looking for a LitRPG that nails both game mechanics and storytelling, this one delivers!

The main character basically trips into a lot of power, which then snowballs. If you like really fast progression, this may be for you.

Just OK
