About this listen
A hero's journey teeming with monsters and mystery is thrust upon an ordinary girl, who must struggle to stay alive, feed her family, and save the world.
It wasn't the day the Gates appeared that changed Jynn's life; she'd only ever known an Earth where hordes of interdimensional monsters terrorized humanity. No, Jynn's life changed forever when she graduated from high school and tested positive as a Hunter: a breed of enhanced humans evolved to challenge the monsters who are ushering in Earth's apocalypse. The only problem is . . . she has the very lowest stats possible.
Struggling to compete with the more powerful and skilled Hunters and barely able to support her family with the scant kills she does manage to log, Jynn knows she's fighting a losing battle. When she's suddenly kidnapped while on a Hunting trip, a mysterious System offers to make Jynn stronger if she agrees to become a pawn in its quest for revenge. Without regard for the consequences, she jumps at the opportunity.
Now, fused body and soul to a System dictating her every move, Jynn endeavors to balance her new mission with her responsibilities as a Hunter. And as she levels up, defeating monsters and developing new skills, she'll soon discover the weakest Hunter in history might be the only thing standing between Earth and its total destruction.
The first volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series—with almost 600,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

BUT! With that out of the way, this book is better written, and the characters are much deeper and more relatable. All in all, I think it's worth a credit, especially if you haven't heard Solo Leveling.
Mixed feelings, but still a 5

A unique take on the genre

It's hard enough to find female MC LitRPG stories that have strong characters, even less so ones that take deep from genre classics.
Unfortunately, the story is not without issues. The MC supposedly lived for a year at the bottom of the totem pole, where a single mistake against weakest monsters would lead to death. She learned to thread the fine line between life and death, even surviving a dragon attack.
And after getting her power she suddenly starts to behave as if she is a Hunter for the first time. C'mon! What the hell? Suddenly she does endless internal monologues instead of acting, forgoes basic uses of her power to get trounced left, right and center and so on...
Good story interspersed with cringe-worthy moments of a veteran Hunter acting dumb like a chair.
The good VA does not save the moments. Instead it exacerbates them making me wince with "Y U so daft, gurl?" question.
Solo Leveling with female MC? Yes, please! But...
