About this listen

He was climbing the corporate ladder, now he's climbing the food chain.

Felix used to be a traveling salesman, drifting through the galaxy and hawking his wares. Used to be, that is, until a freak accident in an out-of-the-way system.

One rough landing later, Felix finds himself stranded on a wild, alien planet - front and center - in a deadly role he never auditioned for to entertain a secret audience.

The upside? A fellow passenger made it to the escape pod with Felix. With this reptilian stranger at his side, he’s not totally alone.

The downside? They don’t share a language. Worse, there’s not one scrap of survival know-how between them, and an ominous clawing is coming from outside the escape pod.

As if the struggle to avoid becoming lunch and finding some of their own wasn’t enough, an autonomous implant from an unknown source seeks to integrate them into the system.

The Reality TV Show Was an Interesting Twist

This is a quick action-packed novel about a man whose spaceship crashes, making him the unknowing star of a reality TV-style series in which the audience watches to see if he can survive. There are some light LRPG elements as well. It's a very quick read which never fully caught my interest, but didn’t totally lose it either.

Great book.. great start

Awesome book. I am giving this review having received a promo code.
The story is well flushed out, the characters are easy to relate to and like, the narration is better than average, but not my favorite.
Overall the book left me wanting a sequel to listen to! I do recommend!

very fun listen

enjoyed this new start of the series a lot. looking forward to more books and where it leads the story. only complaint is that I feel like the worlds rpg system wasnt very explored by the cast, I liked what we were told about the system so far I just feel the characters could have explored its uses more. great book cant wait for number 2!

A new take worth it's time.

I was unsure whether I would like the story, but it had a nice pacing, the perfect for a lazy sunday.

An awesome addition to gamelit, and survivor genre

An excellent addition to the gamelit genre, especially for fans of the game "Ark". Gamers, imagine if your Ark player character was a real person, and u were reading a story based on his adventures, and u will be pretty close to this book.

Those weird mechanics that u thot about while playing Ark?
Yep. These characters run into them and probably wonder the same things u did about them. Like the question of why food spoils over time in ur inventory, but a torch is still lit and ready to go the moment u pull it out?

And, of course, that thing every ark player hates: spending loads of time slowly building up ur new settlement from nothing, only to suddenly get raided and lose everything to another larger and much more advanced tribe.

Great book. Great narration. Great story. I highly recommend it to any reader, whether u r already an avid fan or r new to both gamelit genre and Ark, this book will appeal to most anyone. Fans of Ark will probably find extra relatable tho.

interesting

this book was definitely interesting. the premise is a little different than what we have become accustomed in the genre and I love the fact that the MCs are completely clueless as to what's really going on in the story. I wish the story would have progressed a little faster and the minecrafty system left a little to be desired but overall great story.

Not the best

I really liked the story idea and even much of the story it self but the author (miner spoiler) put in an over controlling woman that seams to now what is best even going so far as to banish the two main characters for a short time because they case as many problems as they fix when they have drestically improved there life’s..... I don’t get why she is the leader of the group It’s just really disappointing to me
