Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

Loved this!
I was absolutely surprised at how well the virtual narration sounded. This book was a lot of fun.
I really enjoyed the story and the cultivation aspects.
The only thing I wish is the author and his books were easier to find. This book isn't listed as a series and when you click on the author's name, instead of coming up with a list of books and follow options you see a random assortment of books. I'm not sure if any of them are related to this book. I hope there is a book #2 in the future!

Interesting
Story wasn't bad. Short. A lot left to be desired. A lot of information that was relevant to the story was left out until close to the end of the story. I didn't know how old the MC was when he reincarnated, time period or where he was actually at almost close to the end of the book. Quick synopsis: Guy dies from old age and realizes he's in the yellow river to be reincarnated. Goes against the flow and reincarnated into the past into his 5 year old self. There's no ultimate goal at this point. It's the 1960s in Kentucky and dude has the power of qi now. He tries to empower his family and create a better life than his previous. Almost like a slice of life mixed with some adventure. Like I said, there's a lot to be desired but has a lot of potential. There's two more continuations after this one but it'll be a while until I start the next one. Just a little underwhelmed.

Good Book
This was a great story. The nation was not as bad as I thought it would be. No it wasn’t as good as it good narrator did it, but I have definitely heard bad narrator with this. Enough with that; this was one of the strangest cultivation stories I think I ever experience. Redneck cultivators is a new one on me. It was a wonderfully new take on the cultivation story.

Great cultivation story.
I'd easily and strongly recommend to anyone wanting to scratch that Daoist "cultivator" fiction itch.
I gave it 5 stars because the story redeemed itself. You have to push through first few chapters, which I think need a total rewrite, and ignore the bad editing (if there was any, come on, no one uses legion casually as a normal word) as there are many simple writing errors that take you out of the story. But they are fewer as the story progresses.
Still, I gave it five stars because the good things are that good.
The ending is a bit brisk (which is preferable to a hyper detailed fight scene) but there is a follow up/continuation book which I am about to read and looking forward to: Fatso.

Slow boring, low energy, fan fiction quality..
Not a whole lot going on, sort of low energy and boring. Seems to skip forward and gloss over the world in a rush like a little kid telling you a story. The auto narration is fuzzy sounding and annoying. not a terrible story, just needs a rework and some depth to the story instead of just an abused kid with trashy family and parent. complaining their life is bad because they are on welfare yet.... not doing any work that would let them better their life or flourish in life or be self sufficient. Essentially sitting on a couch I'm a burning house and complaining that nobody is there to lift up the couch and carry you out... instead of standing and walking on their own. Trying to imagine magic... is not going to fix your life, only action can.
