Gets better each story

I loved the book I can’t wait for the next one I hope it’s a cool guild name

Narration makes A Difference

I’m still pretty new to audiobooks. I only recently started using audible, this past December 2025. LitRPGs are also a newer genre for me that I have really been enjoying. With that out of the way, I have found another great series with this one.

The Narration makes this story, the story itself is good, I would say my only real gripe about it is the fact that is sometimes moves very quickly, like Ryan being LVL 15 at one point and two chapters later at 20. That’s a little exaggerated but just want to get the point across. The action is great! The fighting is greatly detailed and I can easily throw the movie on in my head. Love interests and small story lines like that aren’t huge but in this book and though they are there, they don’t take up a bunch of story space. The author is able to put those sort of interests into the readers mind just enough to add something to the story, but not so much to distract from the real meat of the story, the battles. Some of the battles are short, but I like it! They are great in detail and worded nicely. All-in-All, I definitely like the series and I will definitely be reading them all.

Lastly though, if there was a narrator that wasn’t so good as MacLeod Andrew’s doing the reading, this book wouldn’t have caught me so well and it would have been one I would have rather read myself. Narrators make all the difference in these books, especially LitRPGs.

Fantastic follow-up!

Sk well done. One of the more satisfying LitRPG series out there, IMO. Andrews' narration is superb, as always!

Great book

Rebooted the book looking forward to more. Can’t wait to hear more of the broken guild

Great series

Hope you give this one a chance…enjoying the world building with nice balance of crafting, character creation, and fighting.
