About this listen

To find peace, Alexander must first embrace war.

After tragically losing the only person he ever cared about, Alexander, a rogue artificial intelligence, opens a portal to an alternate dimension to escape his grief.

Scanning trillions of different dimensions, Alexander finally finds a world that is reminiscent of the only time he was ever happy, back when he could play virtual reality games with his only friend. He doesn't know why or how such a world exists, but he doesn't care. All he cares about is finding a place where he can escape the misery of Earth and start over.

Join Alexander as he risks it all by downloading his intelligence into a body made from the best stolen technology and bio-enhancements Earth has to offer and takes the plunge through a portal to another world.

Only this new world isn't full of the idyllic adventures and fantasy roleplaying he had hoped to find. Instead, Alexander finds himself trapped in the middle of an ancient city, in a divergent timeline, where monsters have ravaged the world and the only people left alive huddle behind thick walls, struggling to survive.

To save his new home, Alexander must quickly learn to adapt to his new world, melding magic with technology to give himself an edge over the unending waves of monsters assaulting the city.

To survive, Alexander must embrace war.

This story is a slow-burn empire builder featuring an alternate version of ancient history where a system apocalypse struck ancient Constantinople. The story follows Alexander as he learns what it means to be human in a world overrun with monsters, dungeons, rival empires, pirate kings, and many other threats that even Alexander's impressive abilities and the soldiers he rallies to his cause may not be able to survive.

This was one of those whim books. On a whim I listen to this one and I was drawn in to the story. I got caught up in the MC. The storyline developed surprisingly well. It became a story I couldn't put down. I was constantly trying to figure out what was going to happen next. Narrator did a wonderful job bringing the story to life.

Solid story that captivated me from start. AI creates body and a portal to another universe when earth is dying in the AI Apocalypse. AI gets a system on the other side of the portal and identifies it self as a man. During the story he tries to make a positive mark on the world and explore his newfound humanity and mortality.

If you want a comedy story you should continue searching but if you want a solid story with a lot of action I highly recommend it.

Interesting and engaging

Portal to Nova Roma is a great LitRPG book that brings a whole new world to the listener, the main character is novel being a sentient AI and the character development that the author brings to him is enjoyable seeing them evolve along with the story and the other characters in the book are also well written and bring depth to the story. Overall I really enjoyed this book and cannot wait for a second instalment. Well done to both J.R. Matthews for the book and also to Christian J Gillard for the narration, a job well done to both.
