About this listen

When Josh Underwood is thrown through a wormhole and lands on an unfamiliar world, he is immediately attacked by flesh-eating worms and snarling wolves.

He has one huge advantage. A ring sits on his finger, but it's no ordinary ring. It's alien tech designed to improve its host’s strength, speed, agility, durability and combat instinct. Not all boons are infinitely wondrous. This tech has to understand what Josh needs for it to evolve, and time is of the essence.

An evil force is rising in Mythelore and threatening not only the land’s entire way of life but also Josh’s new companions—the lovely Arabella, Elowen, the wildly sexy archaeologist, and Cassandra, a sassy witch with no understanding of her true powers.

Only one question remains: Will Josh’s power grow in time to save them?

Story started a bit slow, but finished well

Voice Actress Jessica Threet, knows how to do her job, this book is not read it is Preformed, sneezes, yells, burps, and several distinct Voices with there own inflection, so i always knew who was speaking, top tier for sure

Story this is a good take on the whole, i am going to start a system to fight monsters in a world without such a system and it does pretty well, i have listened to a couple of the authors other work, i like the style.
the set up and pay off was nice to see done well for once, i was totally surprised a couple times when i thought i knew what was going to happen and it went a whole other way.

Good story

Good story, only thing that's a downside is single Voice actor instead of Dual. Dual would have made it much better

Decent effort

Story works pretty well. World building felt a little thin and I’m still not sure what’s what but that’s a minor detail. My biggest problem was the “love” between the MC and the women of the story. One conversation and a few looks and suddenly everyone is in love and part of a family. It’s a bit eye-roll inducing. But if you can get past that bit of cringe it’s worth a listen.

Fun story

Story overall is good if not choppy at times. Characters are all loveable. Narration was ok, sometimes not matching tone I imagine. Sometimes hard to tell whose talking as her voice sounds the same. But could be written for better understanding.

A great beginning

Was a terrific start, a nice mix of fantasy and technology. I was eager to get to book 2.

This book was not intended for me

If you want a complex story and deep characters this is not the book for you.
I can definitely see the appeal of this book as someone who enjoys the rinse and repeat anime we get every season. This book is also better than other similar books but a few things threw me off.
I wasn't prepared for the constant level ups. Characters grasping tech but not planets or suns.
And just how there was no build up to sex scenes and even those were more raw when he supposedly felt deep feelings for the girls. The male dialog and acting left much to be desired. Some people do prefer this it's just not for me.
I may return if I see the books on sale but as someone who is not the target audience I'd rather not spend a entire credit.

I love a good Fantasy/Sci-Fi!

Our MC gets a high tech, seemingly magical, ring as he and the crew he's with are scavenging a military space ship.
As he's trying to get away from the enemy that showed up he gets blown into a wormhole that takes him through time, almost 200 years, to a planet that has magic and no real technology.
This ring he got makes changes to his body that it sees he needs like tougher skin and stronger and faster muscles, etc.
Of course he finds a gorgeous woman and falls for her at first sight. He joins her and her monster hunter father and they help him train with the ring by trial and error.
He gains power and gets more women.
This is a great HaremLit Fantasy/Sci-Fi story that needs to keep going as a series.
Monster hunting team series.
I love this book and will definitely be listening to it again and again.
I give this book 8.5 out of 5 stars.

Wow

This was awesome, it’s like a growing troop of monster hunters in a sword and board fantasy where only the MC levels.
