and this one is pretty good I would rate it a solid 8/10 do yourself a favor tho read "the ritualist" first there are some pretty funny Easter eggs in this book about that series.

What's with all these 5 star reviews?

This book goes nowhere, I literally sat here waiting for something meaning full besides;
"You've gained 2000 experience points for completing a socially meaningful action"
How boring, I mean really? This is just a book about a guy going through his day to day actions and getting exp and a level here and there. 15hours of my life I will never get back.
You gain some kind of super computer in your head and the first thing you would do is use it to help a bunch of criminals get a job? Lmao ok. I'm done.

wow! just wow!

not another year for the next one! damn the story gets better and better! the only thing I would fix is the narrator he is actually awful at voicing characters. this needs some soundbooth theater!

returning it, author shot himself in the foot.

got to chapter 3, the whole excuse to not swear just ruined the whole book for me if you dont want to write swear words as an author just dont instead of sticking a 3 page long reason why our mc says dumb stuff like "oompaloompa" instead of "fuck" it gives the book a corny feeling and I just cant do it.
this is a missed opportunity, this world and characters had a chance of being great the author shot himself in the foot. I am left disappointed by this.

This book...hahah I've been fooled a few times I'm actually starting to believe that there are fake reviews on audible. I bought this only after seeing all 5star reviews little did I know...
THIS BOOK IS GARBAGE! I am honestly frustrated by the mc no one could be that naive and the story? Really? The character relationships are...just bad. The plot is weak and the author explains nothing! I'm 7hrs in and I couldn't even tell you what the books about yet. Disgusting. I'm returning it.

same old garbage

mc spends the entire book in self pity, has 0 growth and gets his ass saved again this series has gotten boring. I'm done with it.

a glimpse of his potential

the mc finally starts settling into his role, mysterious powers move behind the scenes.
all in all a solid book.

extremely juvenile. just returned it.

book is largely aimed at an audience of children perhaps around the age of 12. the writing is...childish at best. I made it 41 minutes in before I called it quits and returned the book., litrpg is largely hit and miss so I am not overly surprised at this point.

WOW!....JUST WOW!

if you're looking for monster fighting, epic lootz, stunning magical arts.....

this book is not for you. while the game world holds the promise of such experiences this book is masterfully written in a way that just pulls you in without any of the litrpg fan fare.
I was pleasantly surprised because I'm a sucker for levels and epic lootz but this book really did it for me. and there were some good lolz too!

if I hear "his eyes flashed" one more time.....

im about half way through and I'm pausing to write this review because I am extremely tired of hearing that line "his eyes flashed" it is used atleast once every chapter its like this author could not for the life of him come up with a different way of conveying a sense of the characters inner conflict without using it, and the narrator pronounces "ki" as "kai" instead of "key" it's super cringey.

HOWEVER, the story is very good I feel like there are many missed opportunities in the world the author has created that could have substantially improved on the book as a whole and even more questions that lead me to wonder how this book has all 5 star ratings so far but It holds up well. I have over 9months of listening time logged into audible and this book definitely would not meet my requirements to be recommended to my circle of friends but I am enjoying the story to a certain degree.
I would not reccomend this book if you have a penchant for noticing small errors that take away from the story, even less so if that penchant tends to ruin books for you.....a lot of things in this story simply do not add up.
