These are cool!

Revisado: 02-23-25

Some really great LitRPG stories in here from the best in the business, ranging from epic battle stories, to dragons, to heart felt coming of age tales all the way up to a fantasy real estate story! Can't believe the ability to weave such great stories into such a small length of story from these guys. Definitely give it a listen!

Never read anything like this before

Revisado: 02-20-25

Wow. This book isn’t just another LitRPG; it’s a full on strategy adventure that feels like someone smashed together your favorite sim elements with the thrill of competing in Age of Empires games—and it works so well. Exo nails the narration in every battle, the humor in unexpected moments, and the protagonist who’s way out of his depth but refuses to back down. And Gordo. Man, I love Gordo.

If you’ve ever lost hours building empires in games like Age of Empires or Civilization, prepare for that same addictive feeling—except this time, the stakes are life and death. There is always something happening to move the game along and it never slows. Listening to the protagonist manage resources, build defenses, and make split-second decisions to protect Stonebridge had me on the edge of my seat. Every victory feels hard-earned, and every loss hits hard.

The world building is also top notch. You’ve got diverse races with distinct cultures and motivations, all playing for the prize with their own strengths and weaknesses in a very fairly made game. In short: If you’re a LitRPG fan, strategy game addict, or just someone who loves a well told, edge-of-your-seat book—Mayor of Stonebridge is a must-listen. I look forward to the next book in this genre!

Another INCREDIBLE Installment in the Series!

Revisado: 09-23-24

So I read the kindle version of the book, and posted about my love for it on Amazon. But I wanted to get the audio as well, with the narrator (Exo) doing all of the voices and the dwarves and everthing, this series just really comes to life. He does such an amazing job. The book tugs at all your emotions, from the bickering dwarves to the more emotional parts, this one has it all. I am SO EXCITED to hear how this one ends. Nice job to the whole crew, Matt and Exo, for the work on this so far. If you haven't gotten into this series, totally do it. It's worth your credit.

Incredibly detailed science novel

Revisado: 02-01-24

I can’t believe what I just heard. What a great book. To give this much detail about how interactions would go with alien life was amazing. Well done Andy!!

Great new path

I love this path that Will decided to take MC on. Blackflame is cool and unique, and learning it is really fun. It's awesome that Lindon gets a chance to be feared now!!! Onto the next!

Incredible LitRPG story in a GREAT setting!!!!

Revisado: 01-23-24

Pivots does it again, this time with a gamelit masterpiece (his whisper of iron was isekai). I made the huge mistake of buying this audiobook before work and found myself sneaking listens all day long, finishing it like a madman on the way home. The book is impossible to put down, with each 'act' ending with some craziness and awesome interludes that give the story all kinds of story depth. The characters are incredible, with the dwarves being my favorite (played really well by Exo, nice job mate!). The story definitely has old school RPG vibes, with the classes and skills interesting and scalable. The MC has a very interesting journey ahead of him, and I cannot wait for book 2!!!!

The things Noah can build continue to impress!!!

Revisado: 12-31-23

I love the book series but this was probably the best book so far. I love to see how far Noah has come and what he can do now. He's a great leader and thinks up cool ways to run his city and give out general ranks to his friends. The romance is there and playful but not overbearing, and I like the mischievous banter. The scene where he says he loves her is hilarious.

He can build some scary cool stuff, and the feeling of 'the crafting is a bit boring' is out the window now and I can totally understand why Pivots sets up crafting the way he does. The detail in the builds gives a true engineer vibe, and I always feel a little smarter after reading these books.

As for the adventure, it was great. Good fight scenes, politics, and humans are starting to finally find a hold in this world of predators. No spoilers, but I'm very interested to see what he will do now with where the city ended up. And the ending...as someone with a two-year-old and a mother that doesn't see them...let's just say I couldn't help but tear up a bit.

Well done Matt! Another success! Glad you were able to finish this story arc but PLEASE write more. This series is so fun. I can't wait to see what is going on with the Underlord, what the monks have to do with all of this, and what void magic will do to the world.

The Crafting Book LitRPG Needed!

Revisado: 06-03-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

Finally, a good crafting novel in the litrpg space! I love the 'video game' crafting, it's not manual craft, but I didn't have to read through pages of filler where he's hammering on iron, which I was worried about. Skills dont require lots of farming of monsters or anything, just 'do something cool, level up'. The book is on the shorter side, but it doesn’t have any garbage chapters, very fast paced. I thought the system and worldbuilding was so cool. MC isn’t OP and has a ton of room to grow into further books. And of course, the cat vs dog thing is fantastic. Battles are well done, and the two sides are very even in their strengths and weaknesses. I can tell Matt Pivots is an engineer, not just from his bio but from his writing. With every pro comes an equal con somewhere down the line.

Overall - great read can’t wait for 2.
