The Heroic Villain definitely brought back that missing piece of me. I been away from the entire litrpg and books in general for a long time. I really enjoyed how they kept me entertained, I might have disappeared for IRL while going through them without interruptions. I enjoyed how each scene was transitioned smoothly, there..
The story is good with characters showing strengths, weaknesses, and growth. However the sound production ruins it. Instead of telling a story they attempt to turn it into a “performance” by electronically processing voices, adding sound effects, and using multiple narrators. This obscures the words and inserts differing sound levels which often make the story..
it’s a good one.

the story is awesome and well thought out . my only issue is with the sound effects. I appreciate the battle scores though sometimes to loud, ending up competing with the narrative. but sounds effects out off battle is just irritating.
I love this series. The narration is performed by members of Sound Booth Theater, one of the best narration companies around in my opinion. Definitely recommended.
Solid and Unique

So, let me start with saying that I did not regret purchasing this book, I felt like it was good and I think I probably will get the sequel. That said, it wasn’t without some flaws. My own take on it: Pros: Intelligent Protagonist – the main character thinks a lot of things through and..
Too much background audio
Review from Shadow Sun Survival →
Lots of sound effects and music distract from the reading. The bear cub is especially annoying. The main narrator talks like he’s got cotton stuffed in his cheeks. Otherwise great story, great premise, finished the book despite the annoying extras.
This book was a hoot!!

What a refreshing take on the genre of litrpg. I haven’t laughed so hard in such a long time. Kudos to Charles Dean, please do it again! And kudos to Soundbooth Theater as usual for such an amazing production. It brings it all to life. Kakaw!!
the other reviews caused me to wait a long time before picking up this book. however, this book is really enjoyable! and with over 6m of pure lit rpg listening I would recommend the listen. that being said there does seems to be alot of open ended segments to the book that I am sure..
Really… Star Wars blaster sound effects… bad sound effects in general such as the sound of an impact on a metal drum in place of hitting s wooden table… yep metal sounds just like wood. The story isn’t bad, but the sound effects are so disjointed it drags the quality down.
