About this listen

Corporate flameout Ned Altimer dreams of leaving his world behind. So, when Earthblood Online splashes onto the VRMMO scene, he dives in and never looks back.

His advantages are twofold: exclusive access to the game’s three-day Head Start period, and a ridiculously handsome talking axe named Frank who has knowledge of the game’s deepest secrets...if the magnificent Frank ever feels like sharing them.

But those advantages also make Ned a target. Once the Head Start period ends, his fellow players will stop at nothing to rip that suave, violent, yet disarmingly charismatic axe right out of his hands.

In 72 hours, the greatest manhunt in gaming history is set to begin.

It’s gonna be a lot of fun.

An enjoyable listen that comes together with the character development and plot progression.

So, if you enjoyed the Underworld litrpg series, you'll probably enjoy this journey too.

Well worth the credit

By far one of the best LitRPGs out there! Its funny, and doesn't take itself too serious at all, I laughed and chuckled so much through out the story, while still keeping the story exciting. The encounters actually simulates raid, boss and mob encounters you'd find online in MMOs with strats, clever thinking and abusing the mechanics of mobs. It's brilliant! The only LitRPG I've read so far that remotely compares is "The Land"-series. Which I think says a lot, can absolutely recommend this series! Can't wait for more! Currently marathoning it for the 3rd time :D

Absolutely brilliant!!

The author accomplishes a lot with this book, establishing a range of interesting characters with a depth to their motivations and interactions, building an impressive world with suitably distinctive mechanics and design that set the series up very well and at the same delivering a story that didn't feel like it was just setup for subsequent books.

The performance of the narrator was the usual strength you expect from him, delivering a distinctive range of voices for the cast.

Overall, a very enjoyable first book in the series.

Great start to a new series
