***A Kirkus Reviews Best Indie Book of 2023***
In this action-packed space-opera adventure, one disadvantaged hero must ask himself: How do you defeat a galactic empire that can read your every thought?
The Majority always gets what it wants. Thomas Hill just wishes it didn't want him. There's no way to escape a galactic mob of mind readers, no way for him to blend in with his foster family and other average Americans.
Because Thomas invented a way to save his own life. His custom medicine halts the progress of his degenerative neuromuscular disease. Newscasters proclaim him the next Einstein, but mere humans have no idea his bioengineered processing capacity rivals that of a supercomputer. They just think he's smart.
However, there are other bioengineered supergeniuses in the Majority. In fact, it's shepherded by them. Some—such as the teenager known as the Upward Governess—are secretly trying to devise opportunities to break free from social constraints so they can invent weapons of planetary annihilation and become unchallenged masters of all living things.
If Thomas is going to end the utopian tyranny of supergeniuses and their sycophants and slaves, he'll need more than cunning. He'll need social skills. Oh, and power. Lots and lots of power.
It's a good thing his friendly foster sister has befriended a colossal superhuman. Ariock is oblivious to his own dangerous powers and wrongly assumes he's just an overgrown loser. Superhumans like him are doomed to die as entertainment fodder for the Majority—unless Thomas can figure out a way to trick thirty trillion telepaths . . .
The first volume of the hit sci-fi fantasy series—with more than 750,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Historia
When Kers is reborn as a dungeon core, he finds himself stuck in the most improbable of places: a cloud. High in the sky and far away from the usual solid resources, Kers must face the obvious question: How is a dungeon to build itself without wood or stone? Luckily, Kers has the sarcastic (and sometimes helpful) fairy Selena to help him get his bearings. Together, the pair delight in exploring Kers’ weird existence, creating novel mobs, and enticing adventures to plumb the lofty heights of his floors.

Yet, Nathan can't shake off the feeling that darker truths lurk beneath such promises. The world of Davrar is a dangerous place teeming with dungeons and monsters–ruled by levels, Talents, and a near-infinite progression of power.

Reidon Ward will become a god. He doesn't know it yet, of course. Reidon was born weak, sickly, and small. Afflicted with a painful disease and abandoned by his parents because of it, he has had to fight tooth and nail for every minor advantage life has allowed him. However, his perseverance has not gone unnoticed, and when the most powerful artificial intelligence in human history takes an interest in him, things began to change quickly.

Historia
Humans have been pushed to the brink of extinction by an ever-evolving demonic threat. Portals are opening faster than ever, Towers are bursting into the skies, and Dungeons are being mined below the last safe havens of society. The demons are winning. Quest Academy stands defiantly against them as a place to train the next generation of Heroes. The Guild Association is holding the line but is in dire need of new blood and the powerful abilities they could bring to the battlefront. To be the saviors that humanity needs, they need to surpass the limits of those that came before them.

After fulfilling the duty all Arch Necromancers are tasked with, the last thing Sylver Sezari expected was to be reborn. He was usually the one reanimating dead things, after all. How ironic. But reborn he was. And after crawling his way back into the land of the living, he finds himself in a strange land, a strange time, and with a strange floating screen in front of his new face. Either through plan or chance, he’s alive again, and planning to enjoy himself to his heart's content.

Reseñas de la Crítica
“Thoughtful explorations of morality, altruism, justice and mercy, and the idea that godlike powers come with godlike responsibilities add depth and breadth to this auspicious entry in SF literature’s mutant-superman genre. . . . An Earth-shaking opening to the chronicle of a rapacious galactic empire.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Engaging from the start, this complex space opera features relatable, believable characters; highly original, meticulous world building; and difficult ethical and moral dilemmas. Both young adult and adult readers are sure to be absorbed by Thomas’ intergalactic journey. Luckily this is just the first installment of an epic series.”—Booklist

alaxy. Humanity was slowly making their way out from Earth to the planets and asteroids of the Solar System, exploring and mining and founding colonies. The mining ship El Cavador is far out from Earth, in the deeps of the Kuiper Belt, beyond Pluto. Other mining ships, and the families that live on them, are few and far between this far out. So when El Cavador's telescopes pick up a fast-moving object coming in-system, it's hard to know what to make of it. It's massive and moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light.

Human beings don't shirk off gunfire and smack grown men across the room like that. Not even High Generals. And he's not the only one. The only reason I'm alive is Carlisle.

alaxy. Humanity was slowly making their way out from Earth to the planets and asteroids of the Solar System, exploring and mining and founding colonies. The mining ship El Cavador is far out from Earth, in the deeps of the Kuiper Belt, beyond Pluto. Other mining ships, and the families that live on them, are few and far between this far out. So when El Cavador's telescopes pick up a fast-moving object coming in-system, it's hard to know what to make of it. It's massive and moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light.

This is the way the world ends—not with a whimper, but a bang. It was the only thing running through Cedrick Jonkheer's mind when the alien pylons made landfall. The Intergalactic Imperium used their right of Eminent Domain to appropriate the planet to build a goddamned highway… and all Jonx got was a sarcastic AI and some superpowers. The end of times came, and mankind was not prepared. He watched his world burn, then hid himself away at the bottom of the Mariana Trench.

Fashioning themselves as the one true “Human Republic,” the Sturm cut a bloody swath across the stars, killing billions before finally being defeated and driven into the far reaches of Dark Space. Centuries of peace bred complacency. Everyone believed the Sturm had died out in the Dark. They were wrong.

The narration was good and I will keep an eye out for other audiobooks narrated by George Newbern. The writing and editing were also well done. I will note that there are some YA vibes here, but not overwhelmingly so. I have a pretty low tolerance for that kind of writing and I was easily able to ignore it and enjoy the story.
If I have one real complaint it’s with the title… Calling this a “Progression Fantasy” is pretty arguable. While a couple of the characters do progress in power over the course of the book, there is almost no structure to that progression and no attempt to quantify, explain, or investigate it. Also progression isn’t really a part of the book until partway through the second half… i.e. 13-14 hours into the story.
I’m genuinely not trying to split hairs here, and this may be a somewhat subjective designation at this point the genre. So I could be wrong, but I don’t think anyone who regularly listens to Progression Fantasy audiobooks will find this book to sit very well in this category.
So if you’re like me and picked this book up due to the progression fantasy label, then just be warned that this audiobook is not likely to scratch that particular itch. On the other hand it was engaging and entertaining and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a good fantasy/sci-fi/isekai/dystopian story.
And most importantly there’s at least 6,000 Michael Anderle books on audible that would be unquestionably less worth your time than this book.
An interesting story.

This book is fantastic and the audio performance is outstanding. You will not be disappointed if you like surprises and not being able to predict what will happen next, if you want new characters to care about and hate, get this book.
The friends and family I have suggested it to have thanked me over and over.

Secondly the narrator was awesome, they did very well.
without going into too many specifics I found the story interesting enough that I finished the series. my major takeaway however was the author's desire to humanize the characters by making them manic depressive. I thought by book 3 that they would somehow find a stride or even gain some confidence. but even towards the end of book 6 they're still just a mess of doubt depressive thoughts lack of self-confidence and it was incredibly hard to deal with. the characters would go through this roller coaster of finding strength and confidence and then immediately forget their Newfound resolve and become depressed and anguished over the same damn things over and over again. honestly the author just took it way too far.
and had an an interesting take on super abilities. but the author's use of technical jargon was probably the second worst I'd heard in any science fiction book. it's certainly not based in any sort of reality that I could research. I think the author got lucky with a few words and terms throughout the series.
I cannot say I recommend this overall. I'm very glad I'm done with it.
Are you excited about a six book story of overly depressed Heroes?

The book "Majority" presents an intriguing concept but unfortunately falls short in several areas, including character development and narrative coherence. The character development seems to regress, leading characters to become more one-dimensional as the story progresses. Additionally, the structure of the narrative feels disjointed, as if two separate books were forced together, diminishing the overall coherence and impact of the story.
Some protagonists, whom the reader is supposed to empathize with, engage in actions that are frustratingly illogical, performing nonsensical and reckless deeds seemingly just to advance the plot. This issue is compounded towards the end of the book, where the presence of almost every character becomes so irrelevant that their removal would likely go unnoticed by the reader. A notable exception is Thomas, who, despite being perceived as emotionless by other characters, exhibits frequent and inexplicable outbursts of anger, further detracting from the believability of the narrative.
Despite these criticisms, I don't regret reading the book. However, the execution of certain characters is so poor that one can't help but wish they were omitted from the story altogether.
