About this listen
The Initiation has begun. As the universe merges into the multiverse, its inhabitants are thrust into a trial designed to prepare them for the sweeping changes that will redefine existence itself.
Alistair’s life is turned upside down when he is abruptly separated from his friends and family. As the universe slowly transforms and new laws take hold, everyone within his universe is cast into the trial—a crucible of survival and transformation. Before being set on his path, Alistair encounters a system avatar—a brief and enigmatic guide who offers little explanation, guidance, or aid before sending him and the rest of his universe into the unknown.
Stranded on a trial world, Alistair must fight to survive. Delving into dungeons, hunting great beasts, and navigating the diverse Trial Worlds and Subspaces, he begins a desperate quest to reunite with his loved ones.
Along the way, he finds his soulmate—a demoness from another world. Together, they face the trial, forge bonds, and grow stronger as they uncover what the future holds for them and the rest of their universe.

Story
I used to be the greatest Earth Mage in my world. The head of the entire Order of Architects. But the older you get, the more you come to realize that at some point, you need to retire, so that you can have the chance to enjoy a peaceful life and to cede your place to the young, some of whom have already turned two thousand years old . . .So that's what I did. But I failed to account for one thing: during the course of my long life, I'd accumulated too many enemies, and they had decided to spoil my retirement. So they died along with me. And I hope their deaths were final. But mine was not!

Thrust into a world he knows nothing about, Greg will need power on another level entirely. To get ahead, he'll need the kind of power only deities possess.

One week. If you survive, you choose a Cosmic Power ... If you survive. Jace isn’t one to give up. Not when his sister dies. Not when he loses his legs. And definitely not when The Cosmic System takes over Earth. With nothing more than his street smarts, the clothes on his back, and a river otter companion, he must survive a planet full of vicious predators that see him as an easy meal. If he can survive? He gets to choose a Cosmic Power and a Class. A path to ascension. A way to bring his sister back.

Bernt finds himself working in the city sewers as an Underkeeper among the other rejects of Halfbridge's magery. He may spend more time unclogging pipes than fighting monsters, but hey, it's a stable job, and that's what counts. With the help of his unregistered soul-devouring demonic familiar, he'll save enough to launch his career as an adventurer—just as soon as he can afford some proper gear.

Story
When the AI infected the internet, three hundred years of industrial and technological advancements were eradicated overnight. After untold sacrifice, humanity won—barely. Victory was only possible thanks to the hidden martials revealing themselves and stepping onto the stage of history. They were named the Old Monsters, immortal superhumans with impossible strength and speed, capable of dismantling entire armies with their bare hands. Thus began the gold rush of the 25th century; the rush to fitness, to the unimaginable power displayed by the Old Monsters.

Bernt might have graduated from the Mage Academy, but not everyone has the money or connections to launch a prestigious career as a mage. Bernt finds himself working in the city sewers as an Underkeeper among the other rejects of Halfbridge's magery. He may spend more time unclogging pipes than fighting monsters, but hey, it's a stable job, and that's what counts. With the help of his unregistered soul-devouring demonic familiar, he'll save enough to launch his career as an adventurer—just as soon as he can afford some proper gear.

Story
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.

Nice!!
I have listened to alot of this genre. I loved the couple facing the challenges together. I found myself rooting for the two of them rising to the occasion by supporting each other's interests. The snarky bard like interactions are fun and reinforce the relationships.

Warning! The main character hunts down and slaughters many kids.
Good book I’m enjoying it so far. It’s very similar to primal hunter and other books like Defiance of the Fall. If you enjoyed those books you might enjoy this one.

Good storyline
Love the storyline. It is good to have a series that is more than just murder hobos. Would love more exploration but I have a feeling that might be coming in future books.

a good book
it was a very good book. I like the incorporation of several different styles the normal tropes and The characters were good pretty much everything was good except the chapters always seem to end on like an awkward note like they should have gone on to include some of the next chapter and the next chapter with this place there for random reasons. each chapter really didn't have a good endpoint to me at least about the book itself was good.

Doesn’t stay focused
I’ve listened for 7 hours and It spends more time discussing love interests and relationships then telling the story about an apocalypse and being teleported on a strange planet. So it’s like most books. If that’s your cup of tea then it’s a story for you, but if you want a STORY that’s focused then this isn’t it. Save your credit.
Narrator is excellent but it’s a shame he’s reading this book.

Standard and boring.
The story is so standard and goes right into tropes. As soon as the mc is isekai'd theres a chick drooling all over him since she is a succubus. The whole universe is getting intagrated and the mc is there hanging with what would be a harem if it werent for the other male and the alien who isnt very humanoid. The whole book lacks urgency since its never mentioned whats really gonna happend to the planet and its denizens. If it was i surely didnt notice since the whole thing was so boring. The jokes at first were ok but as the book kept on they really turned dry. I have gone though other books with this narrator and those books where interesting enough that the narration didnt bother me and i dont think it bothered me here either i just found this book and a bit of the other books the narrator happed to narrate to be borring at parts and im call it on the narrator on this one. Either they keep getting the most uninteresting books to narrate or its the narrator. Got this book at a discount and im never gonna get my money back. Not worth it.

Started out good, but quickly gets lost in leveling system nonsense
Pros:
+ started out good with interesting powers for the MC
+ narrators were excellent
+ the side banter was decently funny and entertaining (not a lot of it in comparison to the length of the book)
+ single romantic relationship (I’m tired of all litrpgs with harems.)
+ MC and side characters were likeable enough
Cons
- there is a large story arc, but not really any smaller story arcs that build up to the main one
- majority of the book seems to be about the MC trying to figure out the power leveling system, and not enough words spent on story progression
- maybe just me, but leveling and power system was super convoluted. I got lost and zoned out for a good portion of the MC trying to figure out how it worked and what it could do, which unfortunately was a good portion of the book.
There seems to be a thing called ‘concepts’ that enable people to do anything. At one point, he learns to fly, out of no where and had to convert slightly with his power of absorbing kinetic energy and dissipating it or redirecting it.
The author focused way too much time on this leveling and power system to the detriment of everything else.
Anyway, this could have been a good book, if it were driven by side plots and dialogue. This is just a barely listenable/readable book thanks in no small part to the narrators
