À propos de cet audio

Special Forces Soldier Alex Kellan has three problems. He’s on forced medical leave, he’s alone on Christmas, and two men are actively stalking his every step.

Things get worse when Kellan wakes up in a twisted world, where people have magical abilities, and high-tech weaponry. It turns out, Kellan’s stalkers want him to participate in a deadly competition - whether or not Kellan agrees. Forced to participate in the infamous Nexus Games, Kellan must risk everything to survive the competition, and save the other members of his ragtag team.

A litRPG thriller with high-tech magic, and a game with the ultimate prize.

Very enjoyable random discovery. Noticed the authors post on Red.. I thought the premise seemed cool. So I gave it a shot.

I have to say that I was suprised. The narrator did a great job. It was fall into the common litrpg trap of painful stat readouts. While it still has them to a point, it handles it very smoothly. Not ending up monotonous.

Overall the story flows well. Plenty of action and suprise. With an open ending that leaves you wanting more.

Can't wait for the second book.

The story has an interesting premise, but has too many holes in it. The Main character is supposed to be a Special Forces soldier, but he's quite possibly the worst soldier I've ever seen. I don't think the author knows anything about the military. The main character freezes in combat situations, and only single shots enemies when he has an assault rifle, quite a few times allowing enemies to escape. Even normal soldiers know to double tap enemies.

Many of the idiotic situations in the story just go through just for the purpose of pushing the narrative. The worms seem easily subverted. Also magic developed was said to be telling of the persons personality, a puppet master and an illusionist obviously wouldn't have trustworthy personalities at all.

Also the whole thing about Zenith seemed immediately suspect. This magical place where everything is possible, and you can max out your powers, etc.. They just so happen to allow people to compete in this death competition and if you win you get to go to this magical place... that no one else can go unless they win. Has anyone ever met someone who supposedly went there and came back? It's obviously a lie.

Interesting premise
