I really enjoyed this book. I have read many LitRPG and this one takes a slightly different spin. I will 100% be listening to the others in the series. The narrator was great.
I really wanted to like it, but didn’t. I came in knowing he was an antihero but he wasn’t an interesting villain either, just a troubled teenager. Spoilers included Narration: felt like a monotone grandfather reading a game wiki about things he didn’t understand. Character voices were grating at best, with weird inflections that added..

The story is fantastic. It really draws you and makes you want to keep listening. The only thing is the narrator speaks to slowly for me. I found 1.4x to be a better speed for me.

The narrator I guess is trying to put on different accents but every time he quotes an Irishman he puts on this offensive fake Hollywood uneducated Irish accent. Even in the mouth of people like Henry Grattan. I found it to be offensive and racist.

This was a surprisingly good book, not your typical MC and a darker spin on the Lit RPG genre. I’m sold and will be getting the other books asap.
This is an aside for Frank. And this story in my opinion finally makes him a relevant character besides just Jason’s tag-along friend who is pitiful. This was done extremely well to progress his story as well as introducing a whole new element to the game. I really feel like there were some powerful allusions..
