About this listen

There are whole anthologies of stories out there about what humankind does when a game enters their world. But what about when they're living in one where a game arrived thousands of years before? What if they're the survivors of a bloody struggle, having fought for and earned their place on the planet?

Tailyn Vlashich was a young nobody far away from all those grander issues. All he cared about was one thing: making his way through a harsh world where the emperor, evil foes, and an impartial god held sway. And the god, of course, demanded nothing less than that all things were done in accordance with its divine will.

I really enjoyed the book. it has a unique magic system and world building, based on dnd and game mechanics, which you learn more about throughout the book. the narration is not my favorite, but it did not deter me from finishing the book. It feels like each sentence is read as a separate statement instead of a flowing storing. I'd recommend to listen to the trial and you will quickly find out if the narration style is for you

Nice world building and magic system, narration could be better

Like the narrator is speaking at double speed. Truly terrible and made me stop listening very quickly.

Awful narration
