Publisher's summary

Like most kobolds, Yynnc has learned his lot in life. He'll find peace where he can while being very much aware of how fragile his existence can be in a world filled with creatures and beings more powerful than he. He's happy enough to embrace the life of a fisherman bringing food in for his warren, and live in peace as long as he can.

Fate, it would seem, had different plans. A group of raiders invades his home territory and kicks off a series of events that will change his life forever. He is a survivor: it is the driving motivation behind all kobolds. When his life is threatened, Yynnc reaches beyond what he ever thought he was capable of doing.

On his world, the information and details of his entire life are at his fingertips. He will need to learn all he can about himself. Then, he will have to learn far more than what his local Shamans taught him about what is possible so he can carve a path for himself in the world. Yet, while the wider world might be interesting and filled with glorious promise and pleasures, the likes of which he has never known, there are far, far too many dangers waiting to grind a careless kobold into the dust.

But those forces didn't count on the strength behind his convictions. He must survive. It's in his blood.

=== Caution from the Author ===
This audiobook contains content that might be seen as sensitive to some! It is written from the POV of a kobold, whose values and judgment calls are going to be different. The novel includes violence, some disturbing/horror imagery, and also vivid erotic content: none of it for the faint of heart! Intended for adult audiences only!

very good

the book has a huge amount of content for it's length. definitely could have been split into two books if the author was following the usual apparent guidelines for audiobooks. not that many stat readings compared to others, very doable.

If you’re already here

Might as well admit you’ll listen to this audiobook.

The story is extremely structured in both a positive and negative way. The MC’s journey for more in his life is certainly intriguing enough that I’m interested in continuing the series. The narrator did a fine job. The stat reading can be tedious but I’ll put that on the genre rather than this author. Essentially if you like others like this give it a listen.

Amazing story, disapointed at Kobold race.

Still engrossed in it due to the narrator and story. World building is quite interesting. Only true gripe I have is a personal one, when I think of kobolds, I think of small lizard people with a very small resemblance to dragons. These feel more like a chimera that doesn't know what it is. Way too many mamal features on a creature that is almost biologically and culturally the same as the lizard kobolds. I have to imagine them as they truly are for me to enjoy the MC and its species. I would have never guessed it was a Kobold from the art. Either the canine type or lizard type.

Great story

A kobold in a litRPG world. Interesting. Concept. The main character is hardly weak, but isn't particularly strong either.

This is all great set-up for Book 2, where the kobold reaches a city. I absolutely love the second book. But the first book is pretty good, too.

The kobold eventually becomes a schemer and a romantic. I'm greatly looking forward to book three.

great story and voice acting

left star reviews originally when I read/ listen to this would have figured this series would get more reviews so instead of just leaving stars like I did the first time I'll leave a review.
In this review I personally love the story there is character development sometimes in the erotica category there isn't much character development but this story does have it, and I like that there's also some spicy scenes, the author has made a great story can't wait for the next and the next in the series hoping that the voice actor for this series branches out and broadens her Horizon in voice acting I think she did a great job can't wait to hear more stories from her

Great Start to the Series!

Great start to the series and liked how the MC was not the usual OP character and slowly progress on his own way.

Pass on this one

This book has an interesting premise, but the story fell flat and the narration was poor.
