Just perfect. If anything, it was way too short. I hope a book 2 releases soon

Perfect litRPG adventure

I read these first and enjoyed the premise which although not new, kicked @ss as I loved the characters and the skill set. Having Campbell do the narration is good news as being a fan of his work, I always enjoyed his style, and this is no different. Luckily, the 2nd audio is ready, but I may have to wait a while for the 3rd, which will be my biggest cripe with this audio. If this is your first outing with Tanners work, then this is a great introduction, and I can't recommend this enough as being a big audio fan finding series to stay in my thoughts and be one I want to follow is hard. Hopefully, you also enjoy this as much as I did, I requested this audio and have decided to leave my thoughts for everyone.

Great Series

A fairly enjoyable time travel story with a competent narrator where the protagonist must leverage his knowledge of the future disasters without changing enough to invalidate his information. Similar to others I have read, but a little to YA or anime tropey for my tastes.

Interesting but not amazing
