3.5 stars.This book is really all about one thing: showing off how overpowered the main character is and how others react to him. It's definitely fun if you only want that. But forget about solid characterizations of the protagonist and others, great relationships with other characters, or really much of a plot. This book is all about the power fantasy. And it does that much well, bringing up new ways to show off the main character and keeping things fresh from chapter to chapter.
Good entertainment The story is a solid OP main hero story. The attempt at sound effects was not beneficial, but if you ignore them, it’s a good read.
Rippin’ sweet! I loved this book and could not put it down. I immediately went to the oppotranslations website to get more once and finished. Low and behold, there was a finished series just waiting to be devoured. This follows a familiar trope, even though it predates a lot of what I have read, of traveling back in time to conquer this battle challenge with his foreknowledge. It has a tower climber feel but presented as chapters. The main character is awesome and the combat is very well depicte...
I have no idea how they got Travis Baldree to read the audiobook of something this, uhh, like this -- but even a good reader can't fix this book. I'm normally fond of progression fantasy and I can handle an overpowered main-character, but this book is just shallow in too many ways. It's fight scene after fight scene with no substantive plot, the main character isn't particularly clever or inspired, and it does this creepy-weird victimizing an idol thing with a real-world korean olympic archery g...
Excellent!Once you understand the background of the Main Character / Hero, his lack of emotion and focus makes sense.He is on a mission to save humanity!He grew up as an orphan, so he is emotionally stunted. He did not grow up in a loving caring environment.And he has gone though a process he saw all of humanity killed, where only a handful remain.Good read with lots of action,
Great start to a series. I'm quite sure that the translation was very difficult. I'm also sure that in future novels it will get better. Thoroughly enjoyed the storyline. One of the best things about this book for me was it was a good mix between action, character building and internal feelings. A lot of the litRPG has got way too much character angst and then a ton of action and a little bit of character building, quite frankly I don't need to know everything every character is thinking or thei...
What the hell was this...How did you manage to make me despise your MC in so few words?What was that compendium of ridiculousness?Every time I read the verb "behead", my will to read lowered a little more.It reached zero very quickly.No, thanks.
Does the jobEntertaining enough with a nice pace.No really innovative ideas but enjoyable.There is one terrible flaw thought..the "sound effects"...I'm speechless on how bad it is. Every few actions you have some "pow".."kia!".."swoosh"..I really had to fight through..if you can ignore it you should enjoy the book ;)
I found this by accident, and read it in one day. Before I get to the plot, I will agree with some other reviewers that the writing is stilted and perhaps simplistic, but this is a translation. Just like black and white movies and foreign films, they take some adaptation to fully enjoy.As my first translated LitRPG novel from South Korea, it did take some adaptation. Not because the translation was poor or the English editing was off (it was better than most independent books I've read), but bec...
worth reading at leastOkay. So yes it’s a bit dry in the beginning. Mainly continuous battles. Waaaay op but that was to be expected. If possible I’d give it another half star. Mc comes into way to much powerful shit that works for him. And yes the sound effects are a little extra and cringey. But overall worth a look between books. Definitely will read the next.
This is an audiobook review. I was initially skeptics leith this story, but I am definitely glad I gave it a shot. This follows the generic time-loop/OP MC trope. If you enjoy towers of heaven then this book is for you. I found following the MC’s path entertaining, and his self preservation and greed was realistic and justified. Almost like the new Netflix series Squid Game, the raids he and other hunters participated in were on a strict time limit with a certain goal and you also have to be war...

1.5 stars.Our protagonist has apparently died at the end of some sort of cataclysm where humanity is forced to fight for its future, but been sent back to the start to try again. Normal stuff, and not a whole lot to like.We don't ever learn much about our MC, we don't run into any supporting characters that we like, we're never treated to any interesting combat (the MC just kills everything without much tension), and nothing is ever explained well. The game mechanics are confusing and never real...
I Could Not Finish ItSorry but what a complete waste of time reading this, I rate this the 2nd worst book I have read in LITRPG, he was giving away a Legendary item before I was 40% into the first book, throwing about quest rewards like he was a newbie Games Master and stat rewards like they are going out of business, again another hero who is measured by his powerful items rather than his skill.It spoils in any creatively he may have.
Book oneMistakes: These sent back in time books don't really make sense. It is never a soldier or a trained fighter that gets sent back. It's always some average Joe that uses the foreknowledge to skip along with no problems. Others have done this type of story better.Why choose a katana as your weapon? I think it's from some misguided cool factor. Very few people know how to use a sword. There are better swords out there. Personally I'd choose a hammer.3/10 Others have done much better.
Brainless grindfestA flat, bland, shallow, and mind-numbingly boring murderhobo novel. Not a shred of creativity, neither in terms of writing nor in terms of ideas. I'd rather not say more.I will say this though. The people who've been giving this book 4 and 5 star ratings are out of their minds and wouldn't know a good book if it smacked them square in the face. Well, either that or they're paid reviewers.
I somehow managed to suffer through almost 3 hours of this piece of garbage before it went into the DNF pile. First off all this guy must have read Reborn: Apocalypse Volume 1 because the entire premise is more or less an attempt at copying the start of that book. Only this author has no clue how to scale numbers in a litrpg or how too build an interesting world. Instead the MC is just so OP he cuts through everything like a knife to butter. The MC is not likeable or even interesting. I wouldn't...
Translations are toughI didn’t realize it was a translation until the end, as it actually reads quite well, for the most part. The laughter should have been a dead giveaway.Even so, it doesn’t read like a purely western novel. Some of the challenge is that the MC is reincarnated; *he* doesn’t need explanations. Which leaves the narrative flowing quickly. Almost too quickly. Add in the things that simply don’t translate, and you are left with a brisk tale that reads more like a video game play th...
AverageThe story is very average if you like time rewind stories like tower of heavens and Reborn Apocalypse you will like this book. My main problem with the story is that there is very little tension the MC bulldozed through all obstacles. The MC's motivation is not very clearly stated and every other character is not very fleshed out. The world building is almost nonexistent although that's to be expected in a raid style story like this. All in all it was satisfying read but I was not blown a...
Wasn’t sure what to expect, but greatI didn’t know what it would be like - but I was far from disappointed. It’s a reincarnater story where the main character knows a lot of the tricks of the world and raids he has to go through. The raids are various scenarios he has to complete with random people who may / may not try and kill him in the process to get more rewards.It’s a fun take on the genre, and I look forward to a book 2.
