Sometimes Repetitive

Revisado: 12-03-22

Overall it was a good story. Slow character development (intentional and done well) but when the MC repeats his main handicap and how it negatively impacts his tasks over and over and over it seems like Clarke thinks we can’t understand the concept of what is holding the MC back. Honestly if you put the repeated sentiments all together it could take up to an hour of the audiobook. I powered through it and enjoyed it in the end; but I’m just not sure if I really want to continue to the next book or just call it quits. Narrator did a great job though.

Loved it!!!!!

Revisado: 01-27-20

Other reviews complain about the narrator switch so I decided not to re-listen to the previous books before listening to this one. This negated the issue of the narrator switch for me and I could enjoy Luke’s amazing narration without any qualms other than a few names being pronounced differently.

All around it was a perfect continuation of the series where I didn’t need a recap of the other books. It kept me on edge waiting to find out what happens next while making me laugh at terrible puns that were on par with some of the best dad jokes out there. I absolutely cannot wait for the next book in the series and I hope Luke Daniels is able to narrate the rest of the series as well!!!

Thank you Dakota, for sharing your wonderful world with us!!

Struggle to get through

Revisado: 12-30-19

It was a good series of books but very repetitive and immature. I laughed at half of the crude jokes when it came unexpectedly but the vast volume of crude humor was mind numbing at best. You can only make the same joke so many times before it gets boring and you want to strangle the author for not being a little more creative.

The character growth is flat for most of the characters. Maybe the next books in the series are better but I can’t bring myself to buy any more books in this series. I won’t listen to this one again either which is rare for me but it was a struggle the first time and it would be torture to listen again. Will be returning this one as it just didn’t hold up to decent LitRPG novels that are out there.

I would recommend The Ten Realms, Awaken Online, and other series over this one to anyone who would like to listen to LitRPG books.

Decent but not that funny

Revisado: 08-12-19

I have been procrastinating when it comes to buying this book but the comments finally sold me on it believing it would be funny. It might be clever here and there but it's not wrought with comedic genius as some people would have you believe. It got better towards the end but overall this book fell short of all the hype from other readers' comments. Jeff Hays performed brilliantly as always.

Loving the series

Revisado: 08-08-19

I love the different take on the main characters background in a ‘trapped in a game like world’ LitRPG book. The wet flatulence scene honestly made me laugh until tears came to my eyes and the names of Eric’s gear got me every time. Great work Michael and Todd!! Can’t wait for the next three books to come out here!!

Dark and depressing

Revisado: 11-16-18

Although I like the change of “they lived happily ever after” I don’t know how much I like the dark side of Jack. Not so much how he acts in the game but his real life choices are disturbing to say the least. I’m not sure if I’ll continue reading this series but I am curious where Castle will take it next.

Loved every minute

Revisado: 10-26-18

Another amazing book by Dakota Krout and top performance by Vikas Adam! I cannot wait for the next book to see what will happen next and how Joe will continue to sneakily grow his power while avoiding notice from the system.

Awesome continuation of the first book!

Revisado: 08-23-18

Great storyline continuation from where the first book left off. I read book 1 first and now this book after reading the reviews of book 1.5. The second book may not have anything to do with the original book but it does cover the story of a key character that is introduced in this book. I plan on reading book 1.5 next to get that characters background as they play a big part in this book even if they aren’t one of the original supporting characters. Would love a book of short stories from all the supporting characters perspectives about why they chose their classes and give some background into their relationship with Marcus (spelling?). Can’t wait to see where this series goes to next!!!

Great start to a LitRPG Series with a lot of potential

Revisado: 07-31-18

I have read only a handful of LitTPG books so far but this is definitely the best I so far. Creatively written with loads of character development that never seemed to get monotonous or boring. I hope the future books continue to show the fast and furious growth of Joe but I know that it can’t always be this explosive. Great unexpected ending and Vikas Adam does another wonderful performance.

Good story and a good narrator.

Revisado: 01-09-18

The book can be slow at times but never for too long. Interesting characters and power structure but it felt like the world wasn’t fully developed and the characters need to grow more. Finally, I feel that the tiny romantic part was thrown in haphazardly just to please a publisher or satisfy a requirement.
