About this listen

Amongst the remnants of the ancient Saidican Empire lies Golias Hollow, an underground community of people who’ve taken refuge from the tainted surface. Completely cutoff from the outside world, the men and women of the Hollow follow the teachings of the prophet Dormiar, sacrificing a select few to the outside each year in a ceremony known as “The Choosing”.

Aristial Stoneblood, orphan and occasional troublemaker, is one of this year’s Chosen. Along with his beautiful childhood friend, Kerys Weaver, Aristial leaves the safety of the Hollow and enters an unfamiliar world of shapeshifting swords, respawning monsters, and dangerous dungeons. It’s a new beginning, a place where intimate bonds can hold power, and the price of life is paid in magical essence.

A post-apocalyptic, dungeon-crawling, fantasy harem adventure.

Warning: This audiobook contains a significant amount of explicit sexual content and some adult emotional situations. Listener discretion is advised.

Excellent

This story was excellent! Best voice acting I’ve heard so far! The erotic scenes seemed natural and not forced, left me anticipating each chapter after the next. Cant wait to have book two and three on audio! Might have to read the ebook or physical book versions!

decent

The story has a bit of a stutter to it and the narration is a bit off, but it's still a decent listen.

A Very Enjoyable Read

To call this a LitRPG was a bit of a stretch, but because the story was so enjoyable I'll ignore it. The narration was spot-on, and I was really able to get into the characters. The bedroom scenes were arousing, and I found myself able to picture the scenes. Overall, I was a bit sad when I suddenly realized I was running out of chapters. I'll have to pick up book 2 in the series for sure!

A bit hard to listen to.

Lets start with the positives. The story is pretty good, definitely original. There wasn't any ridiculous monologues or overly hyped villains that talk too damn much, just a good ol survival book with some magical bits. The magic concept is a bit more traditional than most other versions out there. The characters actually had some good development, even the side characters had personality. there wasnt a point where i felt i needed to skip forward a bit.

The neg...
The biggest issue for me was the narrator. She has a lovely voice but gets severely monotone in spots. I had to relisten to those spots a couple times to understand them in the right context, like begging of the book for example. The story although unique, doesn't have a hard plot line so the story is all over the place with no clear end game, no ring in the valcano, no deathstar. Books that go in that direction are never finished, like "The Land" for example. Its good, but every journey has to have an ending or it just becomes bland. The sex was an eye roller for me. It wasnt good, but I've heard worse.

None of that is a deal breaker, so 4 out of 5.

Pretty good story

Interesting world building with some intriguing foreshadowing of where things went and are going. I also enjoyed the character interactions ( not a euphemism)

Surprisingly great!

I’ll preface by saying that I don’t normally go for this type of story, so I am stoked I took a chance on this book. The book is very well-written. It is longer than my usual listen, but it kept me interested, which deserves a good review for that alone. I found the story unique, action-packed, and sexy. The world is very well defined, and the characters are dynamic and continue to develop as the story unfolds. One negative is the use of the term ruffians. It was used one time but that is one time too many. :)

I disagree with reviews reporting too many erotic love scenes. There are only a few, and they are essential to the plot. Also, the scenes are not as explicit as some of the reviews state and not what I would consider erotic. In fact, the acts are fairly standard. So don’t be frightened - there is no kink.

I will say the female lead is a bit whiny. Her story does not support the level of neediness she exhibits in my view. This may be due in part to the narrator’s interpretation of the character. This is not a huge problem but think it worth mentioning. Otherwise, the narrator did a fantastic job.

The cover art is beautiful and fits the characters perfectly.

Recommended!
