About this listen
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them… when they stumble haphazardly into a foreign realm.
In a world where runes hold unimaginable power, mere mortal and gifted artisan Nate must harness arcane magic to navigate treacherous paths, reveal the hidden truths of his own past, and discover the workings of the illusive ‘System’.
No big deal.
Emboldened by only his penknife and a weirdly profound understanding of runic sorcery, Nate must uncover if the path he has been thrust upon may spare his earthly existence. After all, why only leave your mark on one world… when you might leave it on two?

Story
So you died a horrific death in your own world? No problem! Maybe you are exactly what an dying old mage needs to resurrect the princely line of the Morozov family. An old maniac sliced a couple of people to bits right before your eyes? Relax! Now he's your teacher, and he's going to guide you along through life. What? You've actually seen real demons? Huge, ten-foot-tall monsters wielding axes? Take a chill pill! They appear pretty frequently in unexpected places all over the world and wreak destruction.

Story
I used to be the greatest Earth Mage in my world. The head of the entire Order of Architects. But the older you get, the more you come to realize that at some point, you need to retire, so that you can have the chance to enjoy a peaceful life and to cede your place to the young, some of whom have already turned two thousand years old . . .So that's what I did. But I failed to account for one thing: during the course of my long life, I'd accumulated too many enemies, and they had decided to spoil my retirement. So they died along with me. And I hope their deaths were final. But mine was not!

"Congratulations! You are the last survivor of the Hell Games. You have gained back your freedom." Huh? One moment I was running from demons and other competitors trying to do me in. The next, I was thrown back into yet another realm. Before me, some Princess started explaining that she had asked the gods for champions to help save her world in these dire times… and I was one of the chosen heroes. Yeah, right! I had been in Hell long enough to know I shouldn't trust my senses when it all seemed too good to be true.

It’s Drop Night, the one night every decade when the gods hand out cards to a lucky few. If you get a deck, you’re a deckbearer capable of wondrous feats within the Great Game system. You can control powerful monsters and summon mantles that let you fight alongside your beasts. Ethan Wolfe, top enforcer for the Grimm family mob, has already been overlooked on two previous Drop Nights. People of his ilk seldom receive cards, as the gods tend to favor people who follow their divine mandates, but that doesn’t mean Wolfe can’t hope.

D.E.D. Exorcists is the latest Augmented Reality mobile game focused on capturing, collecting, and training teams of Digitally Energized Demons. For an ordinary college student like Henry, who has always loved monster-taming RPGs, it looks like the perfect game. At least, until he downloads it. Now, the monsters are real. Henry finds himself forcibly recruited into the very real D.E.D. Exorcists: a shadow organization capable of capturing, training, and subduing the real-life demons that are invading Earth.

Story
Maxwell Carter works a maintenance job at a government research facility. The research lab he works at has an accident, more energy coming through the wormhole than anticipated, enough to completely rupture the shields that were supposed to contain it until they finished determining how to convert the energy into electricity. Previously harmless animals are changed to nightmare threats and people are dying, seemingly due to incidents related directly to their interests.

Story
I used to be the greatest Earth Mage in my world. The head of the entire Order of Architects. But the older you get, the more you come to realize that at some point, you need to retire, so that you can have the chance to enjoy a peaceful life and to cede your place to the young, some of whom have already turned two thousand years old . . .So that's what I did. But I failed to account for one thing: during the course of my long life, I'd accumulated too many enemies, and they had decided to spoil my retirement. So they died along with me. And I hope their deaths were final. But mine was not!

In his world, he was the last remaining alchemist, one of the few survivors living amidst the ruins of a once-great civilization. Refusing to give up on life, but seeing that nothing could save his home, he challenged himself to find a way out of such an inhospitable place. After years of dedicated research, he devised a ritual to transport himself to another world. But the outcome was far from anticipated. Instead of mere displacement, he underwent a rebirth. He ended up in a new body, in a new world, surrounded by new threats lurking around every corner.

"Congratulations! You are the last survivor of the Hell Games. You have gained back your freedom." Huh? One moment I was running from demons and other competitors trying to do me in. The next, I was thrown back into yet another realm. Before me, some Princess started explaining that she had asked the gods for champions to help save her world in these dire times… and I was one of the chosen heroes. Yeah, right! I had been in Hell long enough to know I shouldn't trust my senses when it all seemed too good to be true.

You can control powerful monsters and summon mantles that let you fight alongside your beasts. Ethan Wolfe, top enforcer for the Grimm family mob, has already been overlooked on two previous Drop Nights. People of his ilk seldom receive cards, as the gods tend to favor people who follow their divine mandates, but that doesn’t mean Wolfe can’t hope.

Though I'm part of the most powerful family in Elantio, I failed to produce mana on my Manifestation day. Thus, I was relegated to the most shameful place for someone of my status: the Archives. What may have seemed like a sentence truly was a blessing in disguise. I may be a mule—one with the blood of a sorcerer yet unable to channel any magic—but what I lack in raw power I make up for with my tenacity. It's in those Archives that I searched and searched for a way to bypass my curse. Now, after years of study and browsing through hundreds of books, I may have found a solution.

Okay so it did take me a few chapters to really get into the story but it was worth it, I completely enjoyed the story and characters but I do have to say that the MC is somewhat of a coward but it makes sense because of his upbringing and his preference of art over violence. Can't wait for the next one

It’s okay. But nothing great.
I was initially drawn to the book by its intriguing premise of exploring a new world, but unfortunately, the execution left me disappointed. The story had potential and, at times, presented some captivating moments, but it was often weighed down by the main character’s constant feelings of inadequacy.
While character development is important, the way the MC's inner conflict was portrayed felt shallow and repetitive. Instead of adding depth to the protagonist, the endless self-doubt and homesickness became tedious, dragging the story down. It was frustrating to see the MC constantly longing for a past that wasn’t even portrayed as particularly great, rather than embracing the excitement of the new world.
For a character who is supposed to be an artist, he seemed surprisingly lacking in creativity. There was little innovation in how the MC viewed or interacted with the world around him, which made it hard to connect with or care about his journey. Additionally, in a world where violence is sometimes a necessity for survival, the MC’s complete aversion to it felt out of place. His reluctance to adapt to the new world’s harsh realities was frustrating, and it undermined the potential stakes of the story.
For a story that promised adventure and exploration, it spent too much time stuck in the MC’s personal issues without offering meaningful growth or resolution. If you're looking for an immersive exploration of a new world, this book might not it.

Great start to a new litRPG series
The Runic Artist: Blank Canvas is a great start to what promises to be an exciting new series in the litRPG genre. The story starts off in fairly standard way for the genre. Nate Weber, a young graffiti artist from down under, gets portalled (Isekai) to another universe where magic exists, were he gains a class and soon finds himself in a dungeon trying to figure out how this magic thing works. While the plot of the first book is pretty conventional for the genre, the execution is excellent. The pace is brisk and the progression through the first few levels is fast and exciting. The system itself is well constructed, diverging just enough from standard fare to be interesting while remaining familiar. For me, the biggest selling point of the book is Nathan himself and his characterization. He's very believable as a teen from earth, realistically out of his depth but still doing his best to adapt. I loved the fact that he's an artist, and how that affects his class selection and progression. It's so rare in this genre to get an MC who isn't a gamer living out his teenage fantasy. Nathan had goals and aspirations before finding himself in a new universe and he doesn't abandon his dreams or change his entire personality because he has magic now. Rather he adapts his magic and the system to work towards his artistic aspirations. The secondary characters are also great: distinct and vibrant.
