About this listen

From the international best-selling author of Killstreak, The Goblin Wars, The Umbral Blade, and many others...

Steve's just an accountant with a serious MMO addiction.

In the game, the people of Tamernil live under the harsh rule of a vile bureaucrat, and Bokta - an outcast blood witch practicing forbidden magic - has a bold plan to save them all. She'll need to summon a powerful demon, one she's been watching through a scrying mirror for years.

There's just one hitch: the mighty demon she's been watching isn't real. He's a character in Realm of Crafted War, and the man behind the keyboard is a far cry from a savior.

Violently dragged into the world of Realm Online, Steve will have to learn how the hell he's going to survive, all while masquerading as Maxkrannar, the demon Oathbreaker he's supposed to be.

Stuart Thaman writes best-selling epic fantasy and LitRPG with plenty of adventure, lots of action, and characters you'll love. Check out more at stuartthamanbooks.com.

The idea of a player being transported into a game is a decent idea, especially since it turns out the player only gets his own "powers" not the character's.

Sadly this is let down by the main persona being a stereotype lecherous "gamerdude" that has no actual good sides.
Narration isn't bad, but the book is just not going anywhere fast except for trying to fill a bingo card of "dumb gamer no-lifer" tropes.

decent performance, very unlikable main character

I almost dropped this book, because thru half the book, it is about the MC whining about things and things does not become interessting nor rpg-ish until the second half of the book.
After I have now listened to the second half of the book, I can say that I am waiting for the second book in this series.

I liked it.
