About this listen

Offered a choice by powers far greater than himself between returning home at great risk, or entering a world named Ethria where he might find another, supposedly safer, path home, Daniel "Rayid" Tear will enter Ethria. A world that operates similar to the video games Daniel has always enjoyed, Ethria is a place where power can be found in many forms, both light and dark, and whose true purpose is unknown even to most of its denizens.

Taking the long way home, Daniel will make another choice, to help a group of persecuted people whose story mirrors that of his pioneer ancestors. But in a time when Gods are changing, the people of every race suffer, the foundations of nations shift, and change and danger are in the very air, what can one under-leveled foreign wizard do?

All the while at the roof of the world, at the base of the Sawtooth Mountains a darkness grows, a creature plots, and an ancient evil from the foundations of the world seeks to re-emerge onto Ethria.

Good book sofar

Good book so far. Roughly halfway through the story. My main issue is with the background noise. Sometimes as the narrator is doing his work, I can hear what sounds like children playing on the background. Not a major issue, but it's noticeable

Great beginning of a LITRPG Story

I really liked the story. It has basebuilding, adventure, magic and battles. OK, I understand the people who dislike the the Main Character. H is a bit of a religious nut with sometimes bonkers behavior, but for me this is part of the fun. Not some superelite soldier-spy thrown in a virtual world, a normal flawed guy on his way tho greatness on his very own path.
The worldbuilding with its gods and races has also some nice twists to the standard DnD Fantasy.
The narration of Mr Gilliand is a good fit and has me chained to the story right from the beginning.
If you are open-minded enough to enjoy an MC with a different worldview than most, I would absolutely recommend this book to you.
Can't wait for the next part.

This book gives litrpg a bad name

A horrific MC which lectures the reader on earth history constantly also the author is an american of the Republican party. this is obvious because he talks about abortion. I'm European so I really should not be able to tell but he is so condescending about the "2030 abortion riots" that it's obvious. He also rigoursly defends bombing japan despite apologising for everything else which is not his fault.

No progression he gets given everything he has all book and he has a thing where he refuse to hurt sentient life which is just a pain whenever it comes up.

the "action" is awfully no explanation just suddenly they're fighting. Then suddenly they're not anymore.
like this...
"Hi Elsa did I tell you about how great America is and the abortion riots of 2030.
I quickly melt the face of 'insert random opponent'
Yeah anyway America is amazing.
I go back to eating cereal"

Now I see that this is in fact a clearer and more concise series of events then anything in the book.

This book does in fact have a strong introduction and a book about kingdoms of ash may actualy be intresting providing that a different author writes it.

Dont buy it may have a good intro but the rest is just endless filler between poorly written events and MC apologising for existing or explaining why bombing japan is in fact the best thing America could have done:(
