Excellent

Takes a big dip in the story with about 3 hours to go but does recover quite quickly. Only reason for not getting 5 stars. Loved it, got some real armada/rp1 vibes from it!

very good book can't wait for book 2

Very good book interesting way of merging future tech with game element. only bad point was stat points not eplaind fully made them seem redundant or space filler, but narrator was good in he rushed over them.

The Story of "and now for a random twist"

The story started out great. Nice setting - I actually had feelings for the main character getting the short end of the stick.

Then we touch down into the meat of the world, which seems a little thin, but that'll get topped up later, sort of, a bit, in future books, I assume.

A few twists and chance encounters later, we've got a little action on the go, I can accept them so far, they're interesting and draw the story on.

But with another twist and chance encounter later things are getting strange, why did that happen? who are these guys? a little bit of exposition later and then another twist and another along with a rug pull or two and I've lost who's allied to who, why people are doing what they are doing with/to the MC and the story feels like it is missing swathes of the plot which would allow you to see why it's gone in the direction it has.

Then people are sacrificing themselves for what seems to be giggles, that I'm sure they will explain later, but a touch of common sense would tell you it was unnecessary other than: PLOT DEMANDS BIG FIGHT NOW and the MC can't have too much help for it...

I've read in other reviews the book finishes strong, but I wouldn't know, I've dropped it with 4 hours to go.

If you want action with just a hint of a potential good plot, this book may serve, but I'd take less action for more plot any day of the week. It's a shame because it seemed like a juicy universe.

An Interesting Series

This is a stat heavy LitRPG with a sometimes overly complicated story which i found a little hard to keep up with, luckily i also had the ebook to double check on characters etc.
The 2nd half of the audio became a little easier as we get used to the number of characters and stories that were going on. The general premise was good with plenty of twists and unexpected directions happening to keep any fan happy as does the underlying tech.
If using lots of stat sheets, especially repeating the usual stats it would be handy to have this as each chapter end so you could skip or speed up rather than in locations you dont want to speed through in case you miss important facts.
A solid 4 stars helped by the pick up towards the end

Great book with promise

I am getting a lot from this book and although there are areas it could be improved, overall its a good start to the series.
In places it is very dark, the author handles these sections very well and keeps the emotion intense .
The action is intense and well described and narrated fluently to keep the adrenalin going.
The story itself kept me second guessing and to ve honest I still really have little clue on how the plot will develop, this is good.
However, it can be overcomplicated in places with reems of stats that at times get in the way and are very complex.
The game system is detailed but I feel the book would be enhanced by finding a way in many instances to skip or abridge them.
Overall a good book and I look forward to Book 2
