This book was hard for me to get into for about the entire 600 pages。 I'll say that the hardest part was probably the MC being dumb。 He never thinks, always rushes into things, and hardly ever uses his heal! He could have leveraged 10x the use of his heal。 And of course, whenever the plot needs it, the heal is on cooldown。 There are times when it would have been most sensible to rest for 30 minutes and heal completely, but our impulsive MC can't think that far。I actually really liked the first c This book was hard for me to get into for about the entire 600 pages。 I'll say that the hardest part was probably the MC being dumb。 He never thinks, always rushes into things, and hardly ever uses his heal! He could have leveraged 10x the use of his heal。 And of course, whenever the plot needs it, the heal is on cooldown。 There are times when it would have been most sensible to rest for 30 minutes and heal completely, but our impulsive MC can't think that far。I actually really liked the first chapter。 Then the first 50% of the book turned out to be just a monster treadmill, with the protags mindlessly thrashing their way through opponents。 I got really close to DNFing, but around 50% they find the crystal city, and the conflict gets somewhat more interesting。 Unfortunately, it still dips back into monster treadmill at times after that (like the final tower)。The humor didn't land well with me。 I'm sure other people love it, but it grated。 I think it was the fact that the MC presents himself as dumb, which made me feel like all the jokes are dumb。 I got real tired of the Mercy-Maulkin dynamic real quick。 Having one character who physically abuses another any time the authors want a laugh is not my type of humor。All Mercy was good for until 83% through the book was being sassy (in a humor style I didn't enjoy, as I just said)。 She contributed next to nothing until she finally leveled up some crap over 80% through the book。 Until then, she felt largely like deadweight。There was an editing issue where too often it was unclear who was speaking。 Two people would be conversing, then another would start responding without a speech tag so you had no clue who was talking。The skills became multitudinous and hard to keep track of, especially because they never seemed to manifest in real life。 His potency has increased to 35。 Great。 Can you show me what that means? He got 2/10 on Airstrike。 How does that actually affect him? After his initial leveling up, he remains functionally unchanged throughout the rest of the book, despite the purported stat increases。One of the biggest sins is the complete slaughter of Early Modern English。 If you're going to use EME, do it right or not at all。 "Thy" is genitive, never nominative。 "Thy" is singular, never plural。 You don't mix "thy" and "you" when referring to the same person。 And you have to conjugate verbs to second person singular。 Check out some of these horrendous sentences。 "It should come as no surprise that thy condone it。" "If thy can be divided, he might strike with flame at the sorcerous bond between。" "If you were capable of thinking beyond thy animal impulses to rut for just a moment。" "Is that the path that thou are walking, Maulkin?" All of these are gross and should have been fixed in editing。 There are many more instances。There was once where it used "dervish" as an adjective, but it's a noun。They find this dude who's been there thousands of years, but his native language is Italian。。。 Bro, Italian didn't exist thousands of years ago。 What's going on? 。。。more

Felt like I was in the game!I read the first series Ascend Online by Luke and I was blown away。 Savage Dominion LitRPG with co-author G。D。 Penman is just as good! The way these guys go into detail is great and (to my surprise😁) never boring! Character interaction is magnificent。I can't wait to read the next book!

A great rompNot as crunchy as many other litrpgs even though it has an abundance of levelling systems they don’t seem to clutter up the story。 Interesting character progression on the main pc and something a bit different from your standard dodge tank op mc。 Looking forward to book 2

Roberto Flores

Got a quarter through and had enough。The story is rather boring, the combat dull。 The progression is rough at best, ridiculous at worst。 Between the lack of direction and the overly complex world scape, that is barely described, the book is no fun to read。 It felt a chore to make it through the quarter that I did。

David Grey

Good readI liked it, it was a good read,characters were fun to go on adventure with。 So I gave it 5 stars, cause I took that personal。

Good ReadI really enjoyed the characters and world。 A great premise for a story and world。 I look forward to the rest of the series。

Bridgette

Great bookGreat book series filled with constant action。 Many of the characters take some getting used to but by the end they are all fleshes out better。

Kathleen Ryan

An unusual heroIt was a pleasant surprise when I stumbled across this book。 A unique storyline。 And having an unwhining anti-hero! The characters feel like what you might hope you'd be if thrown into a D and D world。 Would love to read more An unusual heroIt was a pleasant surprise when I stumbled across this book。 A unique storyline。 And having an unwhining anti-hero!

Well I have to say that this was a surprisingly great read。 Penman and Chmilenko did a fantastic job at weaving together a very good plot。 Loved it!

Lyndar

Fun litrpg rompI quite enjoyed this novel。 Funny characters, a large helping of combat, and just the right amount of stats and litrpg。

Al Parks

Total Badassery!!Wow, this book was exciting, and so much action。 I loved the discovery of history in the world of Amaranth。 The flavor of the races are great, they are kinda dwarves,elves, dragonkin, etc。 But they have their own perks and bonuses that isn't your typical fantasy races。 The level up, and Divine abilities are really imaginative and cool。 Can't wait for book 2 in series。 Total Badassery!!Wow, this book was exciting, and so much action。 I loved the discovery of history in the world of Amaranth。 The flavor of the races are great, they are kinda dwarves,elves, dragonkin, etc。 But they have their own perks and bonuses that isn't your typical fantasy races。 The level up, and Divine abilities are really imaginative and cool。 Can't wait for book 2 in series。 。。。more

Surprisingly goodIt started out very sophomoric。 I really was like well it’s a fun 3 star read but nothing else。 If I read it fine。 If I didn’t fine。 Then it started picking up。 The story got deeper and deeper and more real。 The action was great throughout。 It ended very powerfully。 The last 100 pages or so I was glued。 Will absolutely read the next one。 If you start don’t give up in the beginning。 It really heats up。

Shaun Milender

Smarmy funGreat puns, great story, great read。 The story about the lovable idiot, but not too stupid, Strangely brilliant on occasion。

Josh Craig

Such a refreshing litrpgI LOVE THIS BOOK。 Finally a character I feel I relate to。 One who isn’t sneaking around and casting spells every thirty seconds, and is funny without being cringy and overly edgy。 Will auto buy the rest of this series as it drops。 New favorite。

Erin Janice Madden

Great read!This was a great book! I loved the characters and the pacing of the writing。 My only critique, occasionally the banter between two of the main characters gets to be much。 Many times I laughed out loud while reading,so it wasn't a major issue。 Overall highly entertaining read, and I am looking forward to the next installment!

Great fast-paced and entertaining storyI really enjoyed the story。 The action moved along quickly and the fight scenes didn’t drag on。 Great character interaction with character growth。 Looking forward to the sequel。

Kevin Schwartz

Luke knocked it out of the park with this bookFantastic book in a new world for Luke。 Thought it was a great first book in a series and has me excited for more stories of Maulkin。 Very entertaining read and found the interactions between characters to be very funny and really built each main character as individuals。

Laeth George

Entertaining, Funny, Overall worthwhileOverall—I’d recommend as it’s largely entertaining with a good story。 Genuinely funny lines and banter between the characters。 Took off a star as some of the character choices and moment to moment behavior/reversals seemed a little bewildering, but would read the sequel and recommend to fans of the genre。

Jamieson Allen

Nice This was a pretty good book, some laughs, and surprisingly unpredictable。 Recommend if you like fantasy and a funny protagonist。 Yup yup I I I I yep that’s it just let me end the review please。

Heath Rogers

EntertainingMC is fun, irreverent and entertaining。 He does get a bit too wise-cracky at times, but the book is well written and sufficiently dark for the wise cracks not to be too annyoying。

Andy Riedel

Very GoodIt took me quite a while to work through this book not because it's hard work but because I've been busy and had to read this off and on! But I am glad that I stuck with it! Nice concept and well written, the main character is great in his simplistic approach。 Very well crafted!

Fun readingIf you like fantasy and a cast of snarky characters then dive in。 Not something you’ll regret spending the time on。 You may even get a few laughs。

Joey Asulin

Funny and funI had a lot of fun with this one。 At first I was a bit disappointed as there were so many jokes flying off the pages。 As the plot thickened the humor naturally found its place。 Great character development, plot twists, and overall plot。 Looking forward to the next book!

Owen

Add it to your read listGreat story and character interactions。 The story is a。 Ice mix of character creation and storyline that doesn’t leave you reading table after table of stats。

Matthew Freeman

What a fun ride!A rollercoaster ride with a very interesting premise。 Can’t wait to see where this adventure will take us! Another book please sirs
