About this listen

Alone. Surrounded by monsters. Armed only with his fists... Time to fight.

Jack Rust was a disillusioned biologist with a PhD—almost. When an extraterrestrial AI calling itself the System invaded Earth and thrust it into a world of aliens, magic, and violence, Jack hoped to at least get some magic himself.

Nope.

Even worse, the System spawned a forest dungeon around him and a goblin in his face....

Armed with nothing but his fists, Jack must grow strong enough to survive hordes of monsters. He needs to return to civilization and find out what the heck is going on. He might even get magic—or not. Surprising himself, Jack discovers that violence is fun.

In this battle-ridden new world, Jack finds the life he always dreamed about. He won’t just survive. He will thrive.

Don't miss the start of this action-packed new LitRPG Apocalypse series from Valerios. Join Jack the brawler as he pummels everything that gets in his way with his fists on his road to mastery and power. It's perfect for fans of Primal Hunter, Defiance of the Fall, and lovers of all things progression fantasy and LitRPG.

The narrator did a great job. No issues there. I like the plot and where it seems to be leading. Solid. Status reading isn't too excessive. The System is okay.

The characters are where I'm pretty iffy on. They all come off as kind of flat and as if they were written for a young adult book,

I liked the book. I'll read the next one. I know, however, that I will be rolling my eyes and sighing quite heavily when I do.

Heavy YA vibes.

I loved every bit of this book. The growth of character is fantastic, as is the reasoning behind his pursuit. Jack's story is one I can relate to and I will consider myself fortunate to continue reading his adventures!

DAO OF THE FIST!

I highly recommend this one I’ve been reading a lot of litrpg novels lately but this one is master to all of em plus it’s 30 hrs long so you definitely get your moneys worth

Holy sh!+

it just felt right. I hope there's going to be storage devices in the next book, I like storage devices or spatial devices. too bad he couldn't loot Rufus before he left

I don't know why I gave the story a four

I really enjoyed the book. 30+ hours of grinding. it had its flaws but not many. MC had a goal, went after it af above all, wasn't a simp with a hero complex. he also didn't let bad guys get 20 chances at redemption and took them out immediately.

far better than the what the reviews say

This is non stop fight scenes and very little else. If just fighting is your thing this is the book for you. If you want some character development and a plot, you might look elsewhere

I found myself sucked in to the story quickly and rooting for Jack all the way. The narrator however took this story to the next level. His excitement, emotion, and variety of male and female voices made this experience so much more fun. I don’t usually love audiobooks as much as a physical book but this narrator may have just changed my opinion. I’ll definitely be looking for more stories by Valerios and narrated by Jeremy!

A fun story with amazing narration!

This series is off to a great start for me I’m already hooked! This book has some (not a ton, but some) cringey interpersonal dialogue, mainly with his mother“The Professor”. But WOW did I love this book. Only “System Universe” has this much quality comedic relief (cough… gluttonous murder-bunny, cough). 😆😂




👇******spoilers below****** 👇
(F**king hilarious ones)






Nearly everything about the Brorilla/gymonkey alliance is absolutely hilarious but when they have the funeral after the big dungeon fight for the brorillas had me in tears laughing 🤣 all the monkeys break down crying but at the same time honor the fallen by going “full gym bro” and flexing and posing!! Ffs picturing that was damn near the funniest thing I’ve ever read 🤣🤣

Game-changing comedic relief and good fight scenes! Can’t ask for more than that!!
