Mysterious billionaire Cameron Crayton is a household name from televised spectacles in which prison inmates fight to the death, but his old shows pale in comparison to his new event, The Crucible, a gladiatorial tournament anyone can enter. The winner is promised unimaginable wealth and glory...if they’re able to survive a series of globally broadcast fight-to-the-death matches with medieval weaponry against the world’s most fearsome fighters.

An action packed roller coaster with only a couple of sore spots
Revisado: 02-15-23
This book was lovingly created for fans of the futuristic action and satire of films like Robocop and The Running Man. The characters are excellent, and the plot coupled with the excellent action sequences make for a gripping page turner (even in audiobook form). However, there are some slow moments around the middle of the book, and the ending doesn’t seem interested in wrapping everything up neatly, but that issue might be solved in the book’s direct sequel. This does not take away from the fact that I could not stop listening to this book. I hope Part 2 gets an Audiobook soon, but I might cave and buy the physical version.
Overall: Great story, gripping action, mostly excellent pacing, but not a super strong ending.
I can’t wait to annoyingly recommend this book to my action loving/video game savvy friends.

Historia5 out of 5 stars 108
After experiencing his first panic attack on New Year's Day of 2003, Dan Ryckert began a 12-year process of learning how to channel panic disorder and generalized anxiety disorder until they became driving forces in his life. Using anxiety as his ally, he was able to land dream jobs within the video game industry and vastly improve the quality of his personal life. In this candid recollection, you'll learn about how he went from having panic attacks during college roll calls to speaking in front of large crowds with minimal interference from anxiety.

An eye-opening look at anxiety
Revisado: 02-02-23
I’ve followed Dan Ryckert for years and you would never know from his work at Giant Bomb that he was/is living with anxiety. That context is what makes this book so meaningful, listening to the lows he had to deal with in his life makes the climb out of anxiety seem much more attainable for any reader who is also dealing with it. I loved this book. It’s the length of a long podcast episode, so I finished it in a day.
