About this listen

To do list for the post apocalypse:

1. Survive the orcs rampaging through your city.2. Survive the pod trying to steal your mind.3. Pull off the greatest heist of all time.

Eric was as shocked as everyone else when the apocalypse struck, but unlike his mother's movie, there were no chosen heroes destined to fight the beast hordes now overrunning the planet.

Just people trying desperately to survive.

Yet there was a glimmer of hope that humanity could hold on to. A chosen few really could level up in this brave new world, and embrace magic, adventure, and the potential for limitless power!

But the only way to find out if you were one of the lucky few who can level-up and grow stronger was to dare alien vegetative pods. Pods as happy to turn you into topsoil as give you any shot at mastering a System designed to benefit elite invaders, not fragile humans just trying to survive.

But Eric was all about beating the odds!

Along with a handful of new friends who happened to be rogues long before there was any System.

Friends absolutely intent on stealing a priceless fortune that their enemies are eager to claim, right out from under the noses of everyone trying to kill them!

Eric might not be able to save the world, but nothing says he can't make a killing! All he has to do is outmaneuver a thousand orcs, outfox an army of too-clever elves, and escape a war-torn city without getting caught!

Eager for a fast-paced adventure with a survivor determined to get the best of everyone trying to kill him and make a fortune while doing so? Then prepare to be blown away by some of the best voice actors in the business!

FRICKING AWESOME

I've been waiting for something like this for ages. It will probably draw comparisons to the Underverse series by Jez Cajiao due to storyline and Narrator. I absolutely loved this book it was brilliant and I can't wait for book 2.

Can't wait straight to the book

Author! Hearken! Why craft this audible just to forcing me to read? Woe to thee! Woe a thousandfold! Cursed be this Kindle, for bedridden and weakened I am.

the explanation of the combat

Abit drawn out at times, usually when describing various things, like a situation, things happening or different thoughts in Abit too much detail

Loved the story progression only works with how long the book is however I honestly love the author and all the series that have managed to make it the audiobooks as super dyslexic

Spectacular

Brutal combat set in a fast paced almost non stop apocalypse action story. A phenomenal blend of fun and interesting characters with villains you can truly hate. Honestly it's one of my top 3 first in a series books I've read this year.

might come bck to it at some point

I saw the glowing reviews and was intrigued. I listened to the sample and the narrator seemed a bit over the top, but i figured that was likely just to build momentum at the start and he'd settle down - so i bought it.

It isn't the worst litrpg I have listened to, The story is decent and there's enough world building and mystery to keep me at least somewhat invested. But ....

The writing is amateurish and needs some editing. The pacing is all over the place. Everything is over described : death by adverb. All women laugh throatily, every time they laugh. The female characters are paper thin. The MC is okay, but inconsistent.

Narration ... this is not a story you can listen to comfortably at night, because half the time the narrator is straight up shouting. It is like he is so desperate to imbue every sentence with a sense of urgency and pace to the point that it becomes meangingless. The individual character voices for the male narrator are nicely distinct but in some cases just don't sound like the description - so you'll have a description of a young man, handsome and well-built, but he sounds like a cartoon old man with a beard down to his knees. Some of the characters are well voiced though.
The female narrator has really not been given very much to work with so it's difficult to fault her for the constant throaty chuckles and sultry comments.

i have abandoned it half way through. I may return to it at some point when I am between series, because as i say, there is enough story there to keep me at least somewhat invested.

I genuinely wonder though if i am listening to the same book as the people giving it glowing reviews.

A few reviewers drew a comparison with Jez Cajiao's work for the subject matter and the narration style - not even close on quality if you ask me. Others have suggested it a good choice for fans of Defiance of the Fall - but i would say it falls far short of that series in terms of pacing, character depth and charm.
