The Dark Lord Filed a Complaint About Me

A LitRPG Satire

By: Joseph McRae Palmer

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A Satirical Fantasy Comedy

He turned a Dark Lord’s speech into a squeaky remix—and now he’s being sued for it.

Simon Thistle was a professional hero. Slash the boss, loot the treasure, mock the villain — repeat until retirement.

At least, that was the plan... until Dark Lord Xylozhar got fed up with being beaten, humiliated, and teabagged on live broadcast.
Instead of summoning another army of doom, Xylozhar did the unthinkable: he filed an official HR complaint.

Now Simon's been suspended. Stripped of his sword, his loot privileges revoked, and sentenced to the worst punishment imaginable:
Villain Sensitivity Training.

Forced to attend workshops like “Understanding Your Dark Opponent’s Motivations” and “Ethical Looting Practices 101,” Simon must navigate a mind-numbing bureaucracy designed by the same geniuses who thought goblin dental plans were a good idea.

But dark forces are stirring (in HR and beyond), and if Simon can't survive a team-building exercise without causing a diplomatic incident, the entire fantasy realm might just collapse into anarchy — and not the fun kind.

If you like LitRPG adventures, fantasy tropes flipped upside-down, and laughing so hard you level up your Abs stat, this is the quest for you.

Enroll in Villain Sensitivity Training today — and remember: it's mandatory.

AI Narration Tanks This Book

The AI narrator is awful and uses the same inflection for every sentence which really pulls you out of the story. I had a difficult time concentrating on the story because of how jarring and out of place for the context the narration felt. Not worth the time, but if this was read by an actual voice actor, I'd give it another go and revise my review. Going to be avoiding ALL AI narrated books from now on. Just awful.

terrible ai reading

ai reading was so bad. poor inflection, tone everything. really takes you out of a story that could be good but ruined by such bad AI narration.
