Summary

Shipwrecked by fate. Hunted by moonlight. Hardened by battle.

Paul is an Aberrant, one of few able to enter a fantasy game world called Valheim. Kidnapped to a secret lab, he is forced into a government program that sends Aberrants to Valheim against their will. Most die within a day, but some have survived for months.

Mira, a famous gamer who recently went missing, is one such survivor. Finding her is Paul's best shot at staying alive. But all his plans are dashed when he finds himself washed up on a tropical beach in the middle of the Wild.

With E-rank beasts roaming the jungle and an Orc tribe on the hunt, Paul must recruit a party, level up, unlock abilities, and build defenses to hold off the savage raids against his camp. But each raid is stronger than the last, leaving only one option: Attack the orc dungeon and kill the Blood Shaman who rules them.

Join Paul in the battle of a lifetime in the Blood Crown Series, a LitRPG adventure featuring party management, base building, army building, kingdom building, class development, and tactical combat.

I recieved a review copy of this excellent book. The story starts well plunging you directly into the action with an interesting cross section of characters. The world is revealed slowly as more becomes clear to the main character. Its well narrated and I'm looking forward to see where the story is taken.

An excellent start to a new series

I really like the concept and the MCs survivalist instincts. The narrator did an amazing job.

Great story

right, as far as I can tell this is the first audiobook by this fella Damian and he did an excellent job. Brilliant production (I would actually have enjoyed a few more music pieces in the book instead of just opening and closing), amazing narration (Steve stop being this good my GF is getting jaloux...) and the core book is just pure enjoyment in a box.

we don't have a lot of world building to be honest, there is some, but it's a peripheral thing as immediate survival is the main focus for most of the book, without it getting in the way of telling a story.
the characters however get all of the time they need to grow, shine and crawl into your heart so we want to cheer for them when things look darkest...

The gamelit elements are a little soft, there is a system in place, but no stats or increase in HP every level, but that isn't a problem here unless you only read crunchy gamelit books.

As for Narration, Steve does his average best, only that is so much better than 90% of the Narrators out there that this is still a delight to let into my earholes

bang up job

I found this an interesting book but not the type I would read again.
The narration was excellent, clear and well spoken.
The story itself was good but I did not like the way it was written using using a adventure type computer game as the scenario, it just did not work for me but if you like adventure games give it a try
