About this listen

I had lain down in my crypt to rest for a few decades, but when I awoke, centuries had passed. My castle is in ruins, my clan is gone, and necromancers are considered just a fairy tale for children.

They take me for a healer. That's because the world is sick. And it's time for strong medicine.

it's a good listen

You know it has none of the shot falls of other books. An honest main character with power but an author who doesn't spend chapters building up the strength of the character only to be nerfed at every fight. The story was very good, good speed and I really enjoyed it.

If you like russian lit, then you're like this

This seems to be either somebody's read up on the newest court crop of russian Litrpg And then decided to distill them into this series. I like it. They've taken out all of the male chauviness for the most part and all the good parts from all these other series and put them into this series. It's good start.Hope it keeps up its momentum

Good but short book

The book was really good. It kept me engaged all the way through. Only issue was the book was short and a little light on action for my taste. When the Audible version is available for the second book, I will be getting it.

A Standout in Russian LitRPG

The Dark Healer is an outstanding addition to the Russian LitRPG genre. This story hits all the right notes: compelling character development, a protagonist who’s satisfyingly overpowered, and a magic system that sparks curiosity about where it could lead in future installments.

The balance between action, progression, and world-building is masterful, with the protagonist’s growth feeling both earned and exciting. The OP element is handled perfectly—it’s fun and empowering without taking away from the story’s tension or stakes.

If you’re a fan of classics like The Way of the Shaman or Reality Benders, you’ll definitely want to check this out. It’s a fantastic blend of the familiar tropes we love in Russian LitRPG with a fresh twist. I can’t wait to see what comes next in this series!

Interesting and fun

The book was interesting, and I had fun learning a little more about the magical system and we're old they created.
The only downside was that the pacing was very off. sometimes things happened instantly. sometimes they were dragged out.
Once again, you have a very imperious overpowered character, who seemingly has No defects or challenges.
The character basically just blast through anything as though they were a magical Superman.
I definitely did not enjoy the attraction of the great-great-granddaughter to Grandpa... That just felt weird even though he passed it off as nothing.
I might try the next one, be warned this one is so abruptly you can tell they wrote it as one book then split it apart.

Pretty good

The story started out slow, and the main character rambles a lot but mostly about the spells, the past experiences with similar situations, and he still acts like a superior individual. But all in all the story is pretty good.
