About this listen

Hello, friend, and welcome to Blade's Rest!

Are you looking for a relaxing LitRPG where the world isn't ending every five minutes? Yes, I know that it's exciting to battle demons and loot swords. But sometimes it's nice to just build a town, drink beer, and end your day with a hearty bowl of stew, isn't it?

Well, if you want a slice of life tale about a guy creating a town from scratch, then you came to the right place.

Blade & Sheath is a fully immersive VRMMORPG game where some folks complete quests, while others develop their magic and battle monsters.

Then there are players like Josh.

He needs to earn some cash, so when he gets a job as a town builder for Blade & Sheath, he can't believe his luck. However, it won't be easy. The land he needs to build on is as untamed as the critters that prowl it. That's not all—he also starts with no skills and no resources.

He does, however, have two fellow builders who will help him. Together they will build Blade's Rest—a place for adventurers to relax after a day of questing. Why not put down your sword, grab yourself a drink, and stay for a while and join them?

cute but short

I did like this story but I feel like it was way too short. ebooks are expensive, and I don't like finishing a book feeling like I didn't get my monies worth, yah know? I probably would buy the second book only if the author makes it longer.
Apart from that, the character developement was good, the story itself was ok, the performance was excellent.

I knew it would be a town builder, but...

I bought this after finishing a townbuilder that was interesting, this one was just so, literally a low stakes litrpg.

If you're tired of battles and just once a good re

You're tired of constant fighting and want a good story this has good potential it does have fighting but the concentrating more on the building of this place which is good And we learn just how smart some of the people and monsters are better in the area for you it has a lot of interesting crafting and good potential as a beginner book if you read any of the other stuff this author has done you will see it is as usual a good strong story with a good strong start

Pretty good

It's very cozy, just what I wanted in a town builder.

I do wish the stakes were a little higher, but it said low stakes in the title, so I got what was on the tin.

The only odd thing that stood out was that the MC has this weird worry about fire safety. There were two instances where he went out of his way to mention it.
