Summary

Be a hero in the ultimate game.

Are you a top-rated gamer?

Then you might have the skills to play the Game...where players are sponsored by actual demon lords, gods and goddesses, or Lovecraftian nightmares.

Enter Thera, a real kingdom at the crossroads of many other worlds, but with all the augmented-reality interfaces, character progression, and game mechanics that players know and love.

And the stakes of the Game?

Nothing less than Creation - every world in every universe and reality.

So...no pressure.

Thus Hector Savage, gamer extraordinaire, comes to Thera. Nothing can prepare him, though, for the schemes of Abyssal Lords, rampaging barbarian ghosts, and a host of nefarious forces who want him dead - before he can even make fifth level!

Just felt fairly amateur

When I saw the author's name I expected something different, I have read some of his other work and really enjoyed it. So when I saw he took on litrpg I thought it would be a lot more mature with a deeper world building and just general better characters than the other authors in this genre.

I didn't get the same energy from Jeff Hays, as I did in dungeon crawler Carl, and I actually went back to double check that he was the narrator for this version!

Absolutely brilliant

I have absolutely loved this marvellous tale. I listened to this audiobook in approximately one go, since humans need sleep and night came beckoning. It is a fantastical story but at the same time mature. An adventure with high stakes and wonderfully woven plot. I have already purchased the second one in the series, since this one fully impressed me and have easily slided into my top 10. If you like RPGs, fantasy, realistic and equally imagination sated tales, then this is for you. The performance was brilliantly executed, I loved the personalities of the characters and felt truly like I was watching a movie with multiple actors. I recommend listening to this story while sitting down in a chair with your preferred drink in hand, so you can enjoy this immersive experience to the fullest. Thank you, Eric Nylund, for this amazing adventure.
