About this listen

Being the False Hero isn't easy. Constantly hounded by soldiers and fanatics, never sure when the next casual encounter will lead to another life-and-death battle. When the ones seeking your life are too weak to even pose a threat, killing them will only turn you into exactly what they claimed you to be all along. Lutz can only flee, keeping ahead of his pursuers, his eyes locked on his final destination.

The journey to the elven lands was long and difficult, but Lutz and his companions have finally reached it. But will they accept the False Hero into their lands? With the human kingdoms who seek his life at his back, Lutz doesn't have the luxury of many other options.

They just keep getting better

This has been one of my favorite fantasy series. The characters are well developed and it's a joy to see their mysteries slowly revealed all while more mysteries come to light.

The cliff hanger ending has me anxiously awaiting the next book. Please don't keep us waiting.

Story Slowed Down

I suspect the author wanted to slow the MC's progression in this book. This book does a lot of build up for book 6. still a huge fan of the series. Just don't want the writer to get away from the growth that made this novel favorable. Now that the MC is giving away all his talents and secret weapons to everyone for free he will need to outpace that.

Still very good.

Mason born!

I’ve listened to every book now. I have to say that mason is by far one of the most exalted of all. The performance for these book got better an better. This last edition was his best performance yet. The short moment with sound effects really nice touch. Only wish there was more. Can’t wait to hear volume 6. Really hope Michael turns this amazing series when it is finished in to a anime. Keep up the amazing work. Both of you!

It’s an alright story line

Most of the story line is alright but I constantly get reminded that this book is really closely related to a PG-14 anime, sure there’s a little blood here and there, but I keep thinking to a questionable fact, the mc is a 33 year old with a 15 year old body and is surrounded by little girls and they all have some type of crush on him except one is 19 but still looks like a little girl, and there’s the random obliviousness to obvious answers or situations but acts as if it’s a CSI mystery, the playfulness is enjoyable but in my opinion this book is made for kids and teenagers, and then there’s little girls thing that makes it uncomfortable to read but the story interesting somewhat but I’d still say Shield Hero is better.

Such a good sequel

This was such a good sequel, I can't wait for book 6!!! Michael Plymel went all put with this book. I really enjoyed this sequel, I recommend this book 100 percent.



Mason born got better with this book, I feel like he got way better with this book. the voices don't sound so alike anymore. the audio itself just better. with this book he deserves a 4.5 star.



I feel alot of stuff got better in this book, I already liked the characters alot, but after this book I just like them so much more. before this book I didn't have much complaints, but now i have close to none. I liked how the story progressed and how it ended. I like all the fighting this book has to offer. overall this was a good listen.



like I said before, I 100 percent recommend this book. I've been waiting for this book for months and now that I've got it I'm not disappointed.

I absolutely Love this series.

I absolutely love this series mainly because of the inner monologues but, the 5th captured my heart strictly because of the Dryad Games. Adding a extra chapter from their perspective was an absolutely amazing call.

It was OK but the story is slowing

This series started off good, but as time goes on, it seems to be slowing down. In this book, the MC showed little to no advancement at all. (spending skill points earned from previous books is not really advancing) Plus, it’s starting to become a trend that the main character, and his party will be meeting super powerful characters, and they only survive because of some act of luck. I think of this is just the author trying to show the readers that the main character is not really OP after all. It’s just a little lame.

MASON BORN

hahaha this was a great 5th book, it needed the slow build and story set up, the mid and end are worth it. don't let reviews sway you in the negative, Mason does a great job if you keep in mind the age of the MC. I really do dig this story, great world build, they don't throw so much at you all in one book.
