About this listen

An untapped frontier. Reaping and sowing. Redemption through growth.

Matt is running from a life that he no longer wants, and he’s found a solution. By logging in to the newest game, Livia, he gains chances that he can’t get anywhere else. Matt chooses to cut out a new life for himself on the edge of civilization, by venturing to the frontier town of Tallrock. As soon as he gains his class, the newly minted Cycle Mage has one goal: farming.

Now known in-game as Kastigan, he gains a starting bonus parcel of virgin land that he will need to convert to farmland from the ground up. Kastigan needs to decide what to grow, what animals to raise, and who to hire; all while dealing with a Legion Commander who hates him for no apparent reason, surviving in the wild land where monsters roam freely, and uncovering lost relics from a forgotten time.

If he succeeds, he will create a new home for himself. If he fails, he will lose not only his farm, but all the workers, crops, and beasts that he has spent every last penny to acquire.

I didn't really like Xander's Red Mage series but I thought I'd give this one a shot since I love Andrea Parsneau's narration. I am so glad that I did because I loved this book! LitRPG is my favorite genre and the laid back nature of this book was really welcoming. The main character is definitely worth rooting for and I was always excited to learn more about the game. It had just the right amount of stats and stat increases, I'm one of the people is really interested in that stuff. I just want more books in this series because the ride was just so much fun! Plus Parsneau does a fantastic job as always!

The exact kind of book I like

Great book. I look forward to future books in this series. I like the farming. it's a nice getaway from combat heavy books.

one thing that seriously needs more story is the main character's out of game life because right now, he's seems like a terrible person. his story is sad story, yes, but come on.

seriously needs more story out of game.

I really liked this book can't wait for the second one. It is very well written and it has a good story as always Andrea Parsneau knocked it out of the park. This is the first book I have listened to by Xander Boyce but can't wait for more.

Really good

Very good 4x story. There didn't seemed to be anything contrived as his struggle was quite real.

Can't wait for more!

so well done, slow plot progression, tons of world lore and complex characters...
I can't wait for the next installment

Andrea pulled this book to new heights with her performance

Tall rock comes from the perspective of someone looking to escape violence and grief, not cause it. This is not your typical lit rpg. I loved it.

excellent book from a fun perspective

I will be 100% honest I only got this audio book because of I saw Andrea was doing it in their discord post when it was released. I will say I thought it would have been a simple book about just ah farming and dealing with the local government because of taxes, I was surprised and over joyed to be wrong so thank you andrea for your hard work and showing this to me. And THANK YOU Xander Boyce for taking the time and effort to making such a great book.

I really liked this different take on the LITRPG cliches. The characters are all interesting and the uniqueness to them was refreshing. The performance was great also. My main gripes are that the story doesny really have any antagonist, and there is no buildup whatsoever. The overall plot is very monotone, like listening to Ben Stein. The book just ends suddenly, at a random spot, there was no buildup, and no climax, which felt a little unsatisfying. I do get that the MC's whole vibe of pacifism and peace lends itself to a story more geared that way, but I still believe it was lacking.

I really like the direction.

this one is a little different than most LitRPG. this one focuses a bit on the crafting and the set up. if you like stardew valley andstory of season then this is a book for you.

it did have a bit of the character trying to get over some grief. that was not for me. I use these books as escapism. I don't want that type of realism in my fantasy. but I easily skipped past those parts.

overall a good book. can't wait for book 2.

a wonderful start
