About this listen

Something went wrong. Something went very wrong….

Against his will, Thaden was transported elsewhere in a big flash of light along with millions of other Humans from Earth, to a place where they would train to become Contenders in a whole new world. Unfortunately for him, something occurred during his transference into the “Training” program, and he was ejected from the whole training process and sent into the open mouth of an active volcano for bodily disposal.

Through a miraculous and horrifying series of events, Thaden managed to survive, only to find himself alone in the middle of a dungeon with no clothes, no weapons, and no way to defend himself. Worst of all, the strange new Assimilation System automatically assigned a Class to him without his knowledge, which ended up sticking him with a Support-based Class that has absolutely no offensive capabilities. As an Assistant Healer, none of his spells did any damage and he couldn’t even pick up a weapon to defend himself if he wanted to!

But all hope isn’t lost, as Thaden quickly learns something unique about himself that might just allow him to survive long enough to escape the dungeon. Sure, all his new magical spells might be focused on healing and protection, but what does it mean when he seemingly won’t ever run out of Mana…?

This story contains an overpowered MC with a normally non-combat Class, LitRPG progression mechanics and stats, and isekai/portal fantasy elements. Contains no sexual content or harems.

What a great read, I was hooked by the first chapter. I thought the Fusionist was a great series but then Johnathan had to release this as I was midway through Station Core. I can't wait for book two to be released and at the rate his books are released, it won't be a long wait.

A must for your library.

There is a decent story here, but the constant explanations, followed by the exact same explanation (just worded differently) needs to be edited out. At least for the audio version.
It absolutely grind the flow of the story to a halt.

Good idea for a story.

I enjoy the story premise, however the voice actor took alot to get used to for the MC voice. helps when others are around to lessen the annoying inflectionsm

Love the story, tolerate narrators MC voice

Really enjoyed this book. Both the story and the narration are excellent. Special call out for a great approach to having a somewhat OP character that still doesn’t get everything they’d wish for. Double points for having a Healer class MC do that! Some great humour that causes laugh out loud moments. Heartily recommended!

Absolutely awesome !

As with all of Jonathan's book, he manages to find a nice balance between crunchy, immersion and story telling. Plenty of hard stats but they are focused to times when the MC actually has time to review all his notifications, and "blue boxes" never break the flow of the story. Regarding the story, it is well thought out, with interesting side quests and an exciting well paced main plot that has great potential to grow in future books. Overall a very enjoyable listen!

Enjoyable
