An excellent series and a great box set! Each book is great, continuing to build the MC, his relationships, and the world in which he finds himself。 S。L。 Rowland does an excellent job incorporating stats and skills into the storyline and not just dumping 3 pages of stat sheets every 10 pages to pad the books。 I would recommend any book written by S。L。 Rowland and a trilogy box set is even better! Audio Version: The narration is great! Stats and skills flowed well and the narrators did an excelle An excellent series and a great box set!

Stephen D。 Fricks,
AwesomeEvery good story line with complex yet relatable characters , the changing worlds aspect is nice and would be great In real life if the Mega gaming companies let you take your char between multiple genres, this is something I've discussed with friends in the past but this is the first time I've read it in book format。 If a gaming company dominated the world this series is what I would expect。 AwesomeEvery good story line with complex yet relatable characters , the changing worlds aspect is nice and would be great In real life if the Mega gaming companies let you take your char between multiple genres, this is something I've discussed with friends in the past but this is the first time I've read it in book format。 If a gaming company dominated the world this series is what I would expect。 。。。more
Jency,
EpicChallenges, generosity, friendship, love, and video games unite to tell this epic tale。 Full immersion Lit RPG? Yes, please。 I only hope there is more。
Xander Huntingwolf,
HmmmmmmmWhile a very decent story, I can’t help but think How close it is to the premise of Ready Player 1。 Also, the flow of the storyline feels a bit forced。
Jim,
An exciting underdog trilogy in a partial immersionI enjoyed the underdog story of Esil, a young guy coming from the future’s equivalent of the slums who gets lucky。 Then he gets lucky again。 There is more to it than luck, he has nothing left to lose and winning is his only way out for good。 He lost his parents when he was very young, but he was also injured and lost his memory。 Anything they left was sold off many years ago as he was not found after the accident and they had no other family。 He An exciting underdog trilogy in a partial immersionI enjoyed the underdog story of Esil, a young guy coming from the future’s equivalent of the slums who gets lucky。 Then he gets lucky again。 There is more to it than luck, he has nothing left to lose and winning is his only way out for good。 He lost his parents when he was very young, but he was also injured and lost his memory。 Anything they left was sold off many years ago as he was not found after the accident and they had no other family。 He eventually discovers what happened to his parents and himself, after the game unlocks some of his early memories。 The tournaments are the big challenge of the many worlds that make up Pangea Online。 While not everyone can afford a chance to try their hand with some tournaments costing gold to enter, Esil has worked the data mines in game, just like everyone else from the Boxes。 They have to spend 2 hours a day charging their homes with a bike。 After hours working in the mines, synthetic foods await the poor as reward for the drudgery。 It’s a trap that keeps cycling the poor into low wage no end jobs that will never afford them any opportunities。 Esil wants to change that, he knows he was unbelievably lucky and he wants to helps others。 He pitches his ideas passionately and hopes for change for the less fortunate。 He stays true to himself, he is a survivor doing what he needs to in order to advance and improve his life。 But he has morals and while he may consider the low road, he strives to stand for himself and others against bullies because every story has one。 He continues to come out on top of many situations but he is flexible enough to take quick advantage of changing factors to alter his plans on the fly。 That flexibility and his determination push Esil and his protege, Dean, ever forward in their quests to better their own lives。 Unlike others these tournaments may be the only change someone from the Boxes will ever get。 A great set of books! 。。。more
Les,
TerrificThe author has greated an original realistic tale without all the subplots that litter so many litrpg stories,like all the best tales there is beginning, a middle and an end。 The characters are a bit shallow but interesting,the locations are excellent and the story rattles along nicely。
Angie Watson,
Brilliant! A compelling read from start to finish! If it weren't for the fact that it is so long, I wouldn't have put it down! Brilliant! A compelling read from start to finish! If it weren't for the fact that it is so long, I wouldn't have put it down! 。。。more
