À propos de cet audio

Log-in or die.

Those are the only choices left for Clay Hopewell. Infected with the ZERO virus, he has less than 24 hours before he bites the dust. With no cure available, there's only one option left: digitally reincarnate himself in the most advanced virtual reality game ever, the mysterious and newly released Arcane Kingdom Online.

But cheating death and gaining immortality isn't that easy. If Clay survives the risky cognitive upload process, he'll still have to contend with a fantasy world teetering on the brink of crisis. Worse, a quarter of the in-game population hates his starting race, he can't unlock the mage class he wants, and a malevolent glitch threatens to upend the very existence of his new reality.

If Clay doesn't learn the rules of his new surroundings quickly, his second chance at life will be a lot worse than his first.

Narrator is good.

However, main issue I have is the MC seems to be in a state of permanent concussion.

He is quite often caught flat footed even when he knows he is being attacked. Often needs other characters to tell him to run, but he still ends up getting badly injured as he continues to stand flat footed.

This MC is very slow to react and it is a little infuriating…

Interesting idea

interesting premise, decent writing. the stats aren't too crunchy. narrator pronounces each letter of things like HUD or ATK it's not exactly bad, just kinda weird

Good story, narrator has an odd habit

The plot device leading to MC 'Clay Hopewell' having his consciousness uploaded into a VRMMORPG is a little hard to swallow and not handled very well (a sketched-out apocalyptic Zombie virus IRL). Once Clay enters the game, author Jakob Tanner doesn't do much to redeem himself, either. The game mechanics are overly familiar, the metagame notifications are intrusive, and the action is unoriginal. The book isn't terrible, but it was sophomoric.. and I wasn't terribly impressed.

As to presentation: Tantor Audio Inc. doesn't help the situation by casting Ryan Burke to read the book. His performance is certainly serviceable.. but unspectacular.

Altogether, 'The Chosen' - the First Book of the 'Arcane Kingdom Online' series - rates 4 stars out of 10. It wasn't a complete waste of time for free I guess, but Keep Browsing.
