About this listen

It's been more than a year since the System came to Earth, bringing blood and monsters in equal measure. Having left Whitehorse, John and his team travel down to British Columbia, running into new dangers from aliens and humans alike. Faced with new challenges and new enemies, John steps up once more to set things right and teach a few aliens why you never put humanity in chains.

Cities in Chains is audiobook four of the System Apocalypse, a LitRPG novel set in a post-apocalyptic Earth that combines modern-day life and science-fiction and fantasy elements along with game mechanics.

The focus changes a little during this book, but like before the characters drives the actions forward in a wonderful way even if, to me, it's a change for the worse... I get why it had to happen though to further the series though, so I just hope the focus stays small <3

Well, not sure how to keep saying that nick is awesome and does a great job in different ways... he just have such a high standard that even his "average" work is above average :)

Still great

Excellent story paired with an excellent narration. I love this series the fight scenes are epic and the mc makes some significant developmebts, its nice to see how he is progressing as a fighter and as a person. life in that world is a challenge and if you don't have to will to succeed for others then your better off left behind

the adventure continues

I don’t know why but I am a sucker for the LitRPG genre. Somehow it is deeply satisfying when the main character goes up a level. And this series is surely among the best in the genre. Flawless narrating.

Awesome. Awesome to the max

The story continues to a fantastic climax, and leaves you wanting more. I will continue following this series.

I have listened to all 9 books so far and enjoyed each one. Nick Podehl is one of the top narrators on Audible and it shows. Tao Wong does a great job of building John as a character. Like most book/move/tv series there are good and bad parts but overall the series has been enjoyable and I would recommend it. A good addition to the LitRPG options out there.

Worthy of a binge listen
