Great start to a promising LitRPG series

This has been on my radar for a while as the blurb sounded interested and it was originally narrated by Travis Baldree. I then found out this had be re-narrated as Travis is so in demand he couldn't record the follow-up books in an reasonable timeframe. So perfect jumping on point with new narrators and hopefully future books being released regular.

The majority of the story is set in underground caves after an unexpected accident. The MC and father are really likeable characters and written really well. There is the usual monster, crafting, fighting and leveling. Where this shines is the classes and magic. It is very well thought out and interesting. By the end of the book the MC and father have jumped massively in power but haven't really interacted with any of the other heroes who are many magnitudes more powerful. I will be getting the second book as I want to see the expanded world and where this author is going to take the series.
Highly recommended.

Excellent start

Excellent start to the series. I really enjoyed the progression of the main character, Sam, though the experience points needed at fairly low levels seemed extreme. I had two niggles that, for me, make this a four star book. The first is the constant reminder that Sam wants to get get home and protect his family. And we are told that Sam's dad wants to get home and protect his family. And we are told that Sam wants to protect his dad. And we are told that Sam's dad wants to protect Sam. Sam doesn't listen to some choices he could make because he so focused on, you guessed it, saving his dad. It gets a bit much for me after a while.

The other niggle is that the author used the phrase "more unique". Unique is already a superlative and you can't get "more unique". A minor slip but one that really jarred.

The story was good and the character progression was reasonable (considering that the maximum level is 300). The battles were enjoyable. The character interactions were somewhat wooden at times but still fine overall.

I will definitely continue this series.

I received a free copy of this book and chose to write a review.

pretty enjoyable

interesting ideas with having the MC appear similar to a demon and give him a unique class...
made for interesting takes on a lot of situations.
MC is somewhat OP and handles most situations without needing any help or guidance...

Fantastic. Highly recommended.

Really good and enjoyable story. Takes off in an unexpected and unusual direction which is to be applauded. Great characters with good development and a story that’s not just about casting, but does also have good battles.

Decent LITRPG

Slightly longer build-up, but good action when it happens. Lots of detail and description to the characters evolving development in his class and profession. Has decent potential.

Exciting story, full of action and drama!

I have received this free copy for an honest review. This was an awesome story, the audiobook is very complete, a big story that is full of struggle and challenges for our characters, a way of narration thata gives us insight onto all the important ones and helps with understandding while still keeping usnon edge! I really wanto to know how the story of sam and his family continues! As they are strong but not nearly strong enough for the world or the threats to it! The narrators are great, clear and easy to understand and making obvious differences among the characters! Definitely recommend it!
