you got Sci-fi in my fantasy

Revisado: 02-22-25

this series has been a lot of fun but the abrupt twist that it was "the real world" in the past came out of nowhere. like someone cut "Escape from New York" into "How to train your dragon" it was done well enough just jarring and unneeded in a series with such strong world building.

great character performance

Revisado: 02-15-25

they were a little stiff and took awhile to develop but overall very enjoyable. could have used a bit more of an over arching plot it sort of meanders but it was a good meandering

overall a good book

Revisado: 01-09-25

a good story with interesting ideas and fun characters. but honestly it would be half as long if it didn't constantly repeat itself and go over the full character sheet so often.

Demon John Wick plays Yu-Gi-Oh

Revisado: 12-16-24

the edgiest of edge lords wages war against the crime lords of New Deck City. solid action and good pacing. my only complaint is that the cards seem like more of an after thought. content warning lots of brutal violence, conversations of SA, drug usage.

fairly good if you can get past the MC

Revisado: 12-05-24

great humor, good pacing, fun performances but honestly the MC being a whiny loser for 95% of the story is a drag. when he accepts his place in the story and gets to it the book is 100% better. also the self congratulations the writers give themselves for cribbing from Tolkien is a little irritating but not enough to ruin the story. definitely give it a listen.

good book but kind of slow

Revisado: 11-07-24

very chill but the main character comes off as dopey not sure if that was intentional. if you are looking for a more sedate LitRPG it is worth the listen.

the adventures of BattleGod McAwesomeatsex

Revisado: 09-28-24

not a bad story but the invulnerable ultra cool Mary Sue MC got boring. there was never a problem he couldn't beat and the fun aspects of his character didn't show through till the last adventure in the book. a character needs flaws and "I'm too F***ing awesome" doesn't count.

a fun story with a good protagonist

Revisado: 09-19-24

the story was good and had a satisfying conclusion but I don't know if the character dieing was necessary. the setting didn't change significantly from his previous life he could have just been a soldier retiring to run a pub. the setting wasn't used to its fullest potential. and I wish writers would trust in the slice of life aspect rather than shoehorning in some mysterious looming end of the world stakes. but overall fun characters and good story telling.

focus on something

Revisado: 09-07-24

the narrative jumped from character to character so much you never had time to care what happened to any of them. it was a whole book of ok what's going to happen then nothing did.
the idea of second generation isikai was interesting but abandoned almost immediately if it was ever the intent at all. also some kind of grossly outdate conservative ideas buried in the prose.
