About this listen

The human race has become nearly extinct.

Allistor and his small group push to make themselves stronger, fighting to survive the year-long stabilization.

Forced to battle increasingly stronger and more deadly monsters, they work to expand their holdings, learn better spells, and gather resources to improve their crafting.

Dungeons must be cleared, and dragons defeated. Fellow survivors are found - some friendly, some hostile.

Allistor considers every human life precious, but when it becomes a case of kill or be killed, hard choices must be made.

And each day brings them closer to the invasion of Earth.

minus

1 star for "Dawn". What a horrible character. She can not die soon, and painfully enough. And for not drinking beer. And for not using teleportation spell. And for making the norse gods squids.

Fun but a little repetative

It feels like, its a taaaaaad bit repetative. And by that, I mean like it feels like you get the same content cycled like 3-5 times in this book which is just like, evil crazy person, we kill them, everyone is is like ur awesome dude.

I did enjoy the book, but really I think its probably not the most impressive piece of literature. I get that like, we kind of need this setup book, but it felt like you watch someone do a repetitive task for several hours with a similar outcome with very little adjustments to it.

That said, yes I probably will buy the next book. It felt like it needed a more interesting plot and a more compelling villain.

One of my favorites

There has been very few books I have said this about, it’s one of my favorites. It’s one of those books read and want to reread again and again. Like a favorite song. I love story, the characters in it. I also like the way the author tells it so the story never becomes stagnant. I also really enjoy the way the narrators tell the story. I’m your fan guys.

one of the best lit-rpg I've heard

I can't wait to read the next one. I feel the author was inspired by Aleron Kong, the gnomes rule tagline are scattered throughout this book series.

I shouldn't have waited so long

I read the first book years ago and liked it. Then when it came to the 2nd book, I procrastinated mostly because of the first page of bad reviews. I ran out of other books to buy this month and finally got this and I really shouldn't have waited so long.

Firstly, the narration is fine. The reviewers giving this whole book a 1 star just for the narration alone are childish for doing so.

Second, the reviews complaining about the moral compass of the main character also seem to be rather off-base especially if you've been immersed in this genre for any length of time. The main character agonizes over each death almost every single time. In this genre, I find it even more unbelievable that someone kills their first person in the first 5 minutes of the book and then acts like they've been doing it all their life which seems to be the fairly common trope since I assume authors don't want to bother writing about messy feelings and just get right to the action. For those reviewers, maybe they were expecting YA content but if they've actually read the book, Allistor's actions seem fairly reasonable to me in a post-apocalyptic world where you can rarely trust anyone. The main character has been literally and figuratively stabbed in the back (and in the front) multiple times and I'm more surprised he's not more paranoid and vindictive.

One complaint holds true though: the bad guys are almost cartoonishly bad. They obviously do a ton of irredeemably bad things, incredibly selfish, and also talk like bad guys who give themselves away as "the bad guy" right when you meet them. If a traitor is found, they also give themselves away almost immediately and they conveniently have no friends among the crowd and no one who liked them (spies are supposed to be likeable or they're not good spies!).

Other than my one issue, I generally liked this book. The pacing is great, the characters are likeable, and I genuinely want to know what happens next. I'll be getting the third book without procrastinating this time around.
