Some people have reacted to what they perceive as misogyny due to the frankly rather lowbrow humour. I don’t think the author is doing it with any ill will towards women or others, it comes across more as a form of critique of the way our world has turned out, that this sort of entertainment would actually attract viewers.

As a litrpg book (or some such, I’m not too into subgenres if any), it’s kind of fun and mildly entertaining. I cannot for the life of me understand those who say it’s a hilarious or “laugh out loud” sort of book, some of the situations are slightly funny and the foot fetisch thing made me smile. The plot is repetitive and while I will probably listen to the next book in the series I think I’ll get bored after a while unless something breaks the formula somehow.

The narrator is good, I’ve listened to several books read by Jeff Hayes and he is almost always great. I did not quite think he was up to his usual game with this one though, not sure why.
