One man. Assassin. Caster. A new world. And a game that is as brutal as it is complex.

Michael finds himself in the realm of the Forever Kingdom, with no memory of how he got there and who he is. Even so, he must participate in the Grand Game and forge a new destiny for himself.

Dropped into a dungeon of monsters and strange magics, would you survive in a game where to lose means death?

Alone, and with little more than his wits to aid him, Michael must advance as a player, slay his foes, and gain experience. All while navigating the intrigues around him and discovering his purpose.

A world of powers, forces, and mysterious factions. A game with endless opportunities for advancement and power.

Join Michael on his epic adventure as he deals with the game's challenges, the machinations of the powers, and the ambitions of his fellow players.

The start of an exciting new portal fantasy epic!

Great story, I like where this is heading. MC doesn't let himself get pushed around.

An absolute pleasure to listen to. Altogether a well rounded title. It fumbled slightly in the way it was written (in the first person) and had a few hiccups here and there in terms of delivery, but all the essentials for a great story were there. If I had to leave one suggestion for future listeners, listen to this title at X1.2 speed, as the narrator speaks a tad too slow for my liking, but it was excellent once I sped up the playback.

Excellent overall

This series is quite good in fact I would place it in my top 5 series along side series such as The Good Guys Series, Defiance of the Fall, Primal Hunter and more. The writing is clean and well put together, the series has a nice flow with very little filler or over explanations, the system is very interesting as well, and the world build and character development is superb. I highly recommend this series and hopefully this author continues to put out top quality work

Better than most

There isn't much to say, Its refreshing to read a new Litrpg book that doesn't disappoint me. Its just a good quality book,

Things that I liked, so that this is actually a review and not just me tipping my hat (i dont wear a hat):

1. MC had realistic struggles. Take down a camp of gobs? well author meticulously breaks down how that happened, No magical rage powerup.
2. Obstacles for the Character meshed really nicely with the worldbuilding, and antagonists were not unrealistically motivated either. For example, Also, Author did not make all the bad guys Rapists. Any book that doesn't lean on this kind of thing gets an automatic bump in my favorability
3. I liked the system. Its not overly wordy, and it didnt have pages upon pages explaining it. You knew only as much as the character, and it leaves the feeling that there is lots more to uncover.
4. Its long. I listen to audiobooks while I work, and nothing is worse than paying a credit for a 6 hour audiobook.

Thanks for this, I hope you keep up writing this series, I am looking forward to where things are leading.
