About this listen
Quick, roll your stats!
Now are you good? Evil? Or just whatever you want to be? Who do you wish to worship? Want to stay human or become something else, say like an elf, dwarf, or gnome? Or maybe you want to be one of the monsters that the world will be facing? Are you smart enough to know more languages just because Are you a fighter, wizard, rogue, or a heal bot cleric?
Make sure to choose your abilities and skills with care, they may just save your life. Oh, and don't forget armor and something to hit things with.
Wait, you ran out of time!? Better find a cleric and level up to finish, or else you're going to die and you'll only have yourself to blame for lollygagging.
Now, join Jason as he figures all of this out and decides what path he will walk as the world around him changes drastically without notice. Will he succeed or fail? How will he handle the tough decisions that such an apocalyptic situation presents? Finally, just what role does the witch Caitlin have to play in everything?
Real quick for those who are wondering: Yes, this is a LitRPG/gamelit story. No, it's not a harem, but it will have a bit of bigamy in it. Yes, my wife/coauthor who can't stand harem has agreed with how it's done. No, we didn't write any naughty fun time scenes. Yes, there is adventure. No, it's not another VR adventure. And finally, yes, there are zombie chickens!
So, welcome to Role-Playing Gamified Earth, if you survive that is...

The aliens didn't conquer Earth. They negotiated exclusive streaming rights instead. Unbeknownst to humanity, the powerful Voltaxians controlled the galaxy, their vast empire fueled by their monopoly on mana. Humanity feared invasion, only to find out the godlike aliens had something far different in mind. The Voltaxians offered a simple deal. Allow them to set up dungeons controlled by living intelligent dungeon cores on Earth to generate mana, and they'd share the wealth.

A life spent honing his skills and serving his country hasn’t turned out exactly how Nathaniel Abrams planned, but it’s attracted the attention of the Tower. Ascending to its peak is meant to give anyone whatever they wish for, but all Nate cares about is finding some way to use the skills that seem so useless in civilian life. And if he can prevent a magical wish being given to some maniac (because the Tower seems to love welcoming maniacs through its doors), then that’ll be a bonus. Besides, Nate has an edge.

Jason and his friends just wanted to spend a week at the lake house. Time to relax, hang out, and catch up on old times. Then the System arrived. It only took a few hours for their world to become a real-life roleplaying game; trading some downtime for the need to learn new skills and powers while trying to defend their new home, their families, and survive. They don’t know the rules. They don’t know what’s coming next. What they do know is; they need to reinforce and expand their fort while protecting it, keep leveling up, and explore a dangerous new world.

When an accident kicks Sean Lawrence forward in time, he finds himself square in the apocalyptic end-times. The world is doomed, and he only has a mysterious guidebook, a leather jacket, and a homemade knife to keep him company. He could spend his days grinding low-level mobs, gathering rat pelts, and waiting for a chance to escape. Or he could rise up, slay dragons, and fight against the odds. Faced with a choice between the dead-end life he's been living and the possibility of greatness, Sean has to decide if he's willing to risk his life and more for a chance to save Earth itself.

Garth had been the favorite for the number-one draft pick in the next season of the USA's top sport. His college career was supposed to end on a high note… but it didn't. Sabotaged in his final game, he found himself shut out of the Dungeon League of America, forced to retire his jersey in shame. With no other options, he leaned on his university degree and became a licensed psychiatrist and therapist. That should have been the end of his dungeon-crawling days. But then, a new dungeon appeared in his city.

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?

To Viggo, the veil was simply a landmark. Crossing it was considered suicide, and he'd never given much thought to what might lay beyond. Then, his life collapsed around him. Ejected from the military academy that was to have marked the start of his career, disowned by his family, passed over by the gods themselves, Viggo's last chance lay beyond the veil. Yet, from the very beginning, something was deeply troubling about the realm from whence the gods came. Its cities lay in ruins, its lands peopled by lunatics locked into tasks they could not escape.

How am I supposed to take over the world with this thing? System, are you sure you're so kind and wise after all?

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.

Magnus’s death caught the All-Father’s one good eye. As an Army Ranger, he knew he was placing himself in the line of fire every day, and knew a day could come that cost him his life. What he didn't want was the rest of his team would be wiped out with him, the worst disaster the Rangers had experienced in decades.

Marcus was never a hero... and he never wanted to be. He never wanted a lot of things. He didn't want to go to school for a pointless degree. He didn't want to be an office drone, working nine-to-five to barely make ends meet. Most importantly, he didn't want to play by other people's rules. He wanted to do things his way and live life on his terms. Some people might have called him a criminal, but he called it freedom. Too bad it got him killed. When everything changed, death didn't take like it used to.

I used to think my life would be common, boring even. My online guildies and my friends sure thought so. Yet everything I knew to be true in this world all changed drastically one fateful night... or should I say, it shifted. As it turns out, my father passed on more than his name to me. Something feral and mighty awoke within me, and I knew at once, I would never be the same again. Shortly after, I received an invitation that I didn't expect, a call to attend the mysterious Apex Academy.

Born in a small spaceport on a distant planet, I dreamed of flying a starship, exploring wild frontiers and having one exciting encounter after another. I wanted to go everywhere, but life locked me onto the slow track to nowhere. Then fate dealt me a new hand, and my life changed beyond all imagination in the most amazing ways. But I couldn’t do it by myself. To fulfill my dream, I needed a team of starship heroes. Earning their trust and making them family will be just as grand as the epic adventures.

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!

Looking back, I should have suspected something when I spied the freshly baked devil’s food cake next to the manna on the buffet. I would have blamed my choice to go for the devil's chocolate on PMS if I’d still been alive; however, after one bite of sweet temptation, I was...

good start
I tend to take it easy on the beginning of any new story. it's been my experience that even when dealing with tried and true authors the beginning of any new story can be shaky at times. I first came across this author through his series titled Eternal Dominion. I definitely recommend anybody reading this review check out that book series if they have not already. this specific book, if I remember correctly, has the last section written by his wife. the wife does not like the multi women relationships. if I remember correctly the author stated that this series is just going to be a three person Romance with his wife's short stories tacked on to the ending. the short story is set in the same universe. our main character is rolling dice at the beginning along with everybody else on planet Earth to build their new self. some people are so traumatized that they don't and thus are put in a worse position. our main character literally bows down to this foreign powerful being who has taken the name of one of the goddesses of Earth. this first book basically sees our main character traveling to what I would argue is their Promised Land and then picking up a bunch of followers along the way.

Great promise felt like a true fail
The first part of the book started off well but it felt like the introduction to the villain once he gained so many um followers… still the writer has talent great job with the witch. However I think was a pass for me on the rest of the series.

I wanted to like this...
I enjoyed Eternal Dominion, so I had high hopes for this series, but so far I was let down. Having played a decent bit of TTRPG, I felt the MC was massively overpowered, and while that is true of ED as well, there was at least a reason in ED, no such thing in Upheaval. But probably worst for me was the secondary protagonist Caitlin, she is just completely removed from everything. Not only is there no real connection to the main story, but Caitlin does not seem to care at all about the people around her. People die around her and she simply doesn't give a shit, she is just going around looting and wandering(I don't think she ever stated any sort of goal).
I'll give the second book a chance, but I'm still fairly disappointed with the start of this series.
