SERIOUSLY? 95% of the people reading this book will have played an RPG game before and know what this is, so I really don’t see why the author feels he needs to explain it like we are all 5 and have never heard of this world before. We don’t need the PAINFULLY detailed explanation of what an NPC is, or what mana is, or how stats work, or the 20 minute explanation of how “if you kill something lower level than you, you get less XP”. The first 5 hours of this book felt like a badly done training video you watch when you get your first job at a fast-food restaurant. Which, it turns out was completely pointless as the characters all go by alternate names…. Next, what’s with the character naming? It looks like the author said “Your name is….” and then banged on the keyboard 3 or 4 times, and viola, a character name. I then found several reviews for the Kindle version of this book on Amazon that details the plagiarism pointing out that the mining sequences were lifted directly from The Way of the Shaman series (which I have read). The main character ends up mining in a cave and I started to get a familiar feeling about the events that happened. This is obvious by the BLATANT PLAGIARISM in this book. It seems like he just read a couple of litRPG books and thought “Hey, I can do that too!”. I don’t think this author has EVER played an online game. Seriously! I gave myself several headaches while listening to this book with all of the facepalming I did.
