Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 17
When a magical plague is released in a Depression-era New York soup kitchen, private detective Alex Lockerby finds himself in a desperate hunt to catch a madman before he can strike again. His investigations lead Alex to a famous thief, a daring heist, and the search for a mythic book of ancient magic, but none of that brings him any closer to finding the man responsible for the massacre. With the police and New York’s Council of Sorcerers desperate to find the culprit, Alex becomes a suspect himself, thanks to his ties to the priest who ran the soup kitchen.

As a monster, Shrubley is forbidden from joining the adventurers guild.

"No killing Goblins." So reads the sign outside of The Wandering Inn, a small building run by a young woman named Erin Solstice. She serves pasta with sausage, blue fruit juice, and dead acid flies on request. And she comes from another world. Ours. It's a bad day when Erin finds herself transported to a fantastical world and nearly gets eaten by a Dragon. She doesn't belong in a place where monster attacks are a fact of life, and where Humans are one species among many. But she must adapt to her new life. Or die.

Easy read (listen) entertaining if your not looking for something too deep
The story picks up right away and is great for game lovers. The story and the characters don’t really develop much throughout but the plot moves enough that jt doesn’t get stale . I wouldn’t recommend for non gamers as most of the appeal was the fun transfers from the book to an rpg . It was great for some time killing

Interesting world environment
First I want to say I didn't really like the narrators voice, but over time I got used to it. It was competent. The author takes an interesting way to get the people into the gaming world, kidnapped by a supernatural being. I found this more interesting than the typical "stuck in a vr machine that delivers pain and can actually kill you". This made the danger more congruous. The world was interesting as were the various world mechanics. The story moves along quite well. I bought the second book right after I finished the first and at the time of this writing, I am just about to start it. I assume it will explore the characters more and develop more plot since the world has been introduced.

very good book with some awkward moments
Anybody who plays RPGs or deep dives video games will enjoy this book. That said, there are some moments (mostly during character interactions) that seem as though they were written by a high school student, or an adult who never really matured. The main character's conversations and observations with/of his female interest are downright cringeworthy.
All in all I had a lot of fun with the book though. Ready Player One vibes but way less forced pop culture references. Like Ernest Cline though, the author is pretty obviously not great with social interaction.

Time in the story felt off
When listening it was as if the events of the rook took way longer then it said it did. When he was power levelling it was as if days had pass but it had only been a single day. I would have liked if we got too see some of the humans point of view. Even some of the monsters.

An interesting large group dynamic!
This one is different because it involves a large group of gamers kidnapped for the machinations of demon goddess Lilith. It’s an interesting setup and gives a lot of isakied characters many of whom do not react well (EG realistically) to being in A REAL RPG setting where death is most likely final all for the amusement of Lilith.

*sigh* If only I were a geeky 13-year-old
...but I'm not. I'm a 50-year-old Fantasy/SciFi afficianado, RPG gamer, and occasional reader of GameLit. This book is clearly designed to entertain misfit teenagers that love losing themselves in scenarios where they can kill with impunity, display fantasized magical powers, indulge their navelgazing punctilious desire to control every aspect of their life, and engage in some kind of social congress with the opposite sex.
(Actually.. it's kinda sad when you think about it..)
Fortunately, Apollos Thorne is good at it. He understands his audience and provides straight-up MMORPG action: explore dungeons, kill sh*t, learn to exploit skills, level-up. The book is often strikingly sophomoric, but there are admirably very few complicated overlying quests/goals, no tedious basebuilding/runecrafting, and no inordinate focus on Character Sheets and Inventory Screens. The book is satisfyingly straightforward.
The reading by Graham Halstead contributes to my favorable impression of this audiobook. His diction/tone/timbre/cadence fit the text nicely and his voice-acting is excellent (few affected accents and easily-distinguishable characters). Less fortunately, the book is best consumed at 1.15X speed (Halstead's rate of reading is a little slow). Altogether, Podium Audio cast the project well.
I would definitely appreciate this offering more if I fit into the target demographic.. but I still rate 'Level Up or Die!' 7 stars out of 10. It was offered for Free as part of the 'Plus' initiative and I'm happy I gave it a try. I won't be continuing with the 'Underworld' series, but you justifiably could do so if you become enamored with this uncomplicated LitRPG scenario.

What a pleasant surprise
This is the best and most creative implementation of video game stats meets real life that I have read. If you enjoy video games, leveling up, or a light hearted story that doesn't take itself too seriously, I really recommend this one. I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I did and I couldn't put it down. The character progression is awesome and the story is captivating. I seriously loved this book and immediately bought the rest in the series.
