Zac was alone in the middle of the forest when the world changed...
The whole planet was introduced to the multiverse by an unfeeling System... or God. A universe where an endless number of races and civilizations fought for power and dominion.
Zac finds himself stuck in the wilderness surrounded by deadly beasts, demons, and worse. Alone, lost and without answers, he must find the means to survive and get stronger in this new cut-throat reality.
With only a hatchet for his weapon, he'll have to seek out his family before the world collapses... or die trying.

It’s not easy making the career jump from office-supplies-store middle manager to heroic interdimensional adventurer. At least, Jason tries to be heroic, but it's hard to be good when all your powers are evil. He’ll face off against cannibals, cultists, wizards, monsters...and that’s just on the first day. He’s going to need courage, he’s going to need wit, and he’s going to need some magic powers of his own. But first, he’s going to need pants.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 208
Felix's life on Earth had become a series of dead-end jobs, ruined relationships, and rotating apartments smaller than most postage stamps. By all accounts, even his own, he was a coward. Too afraid to move forward, to take risks. Yet when given the chance to choose between risking his life or walking away from a deadly encounter, he didn't hesitate. Moments before his untimely demise, Felix was snatched from earth and thrust into a magical world known only as "The Continent". Empowered by the "System", he learns that he can strengthen himself through combat and dedication.

Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

When summoned to a fantastical world and granted powers by a broken System, most freshly minted protagonists would strap on their big-boy boots and get ready for their stats to start climbing. But Fischer isn't like most MCs. In fact, he doesn't want to be a hero at all. Fame? Fortune? Power? He had enough of all that in his old life. Discovering forbidden fishing techniques and petting every cute animal that comes within scritching distance? Now that's a good time.

Jin Rou wanted to be a cultivator. A man powerful enough to defy the heavens. A master of martial arts. A lord of spiritual power. Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I’m stuck in his body. Arrogant Masters? Heavenly Tribulations? All that violence and bloodshed? Yeah, no thanks. I’m getting out of here. Farm life sounds pretty great. Tilling a field by hand is fun when you’ve got the strength of ten men—though maybe I shouldn’t have fed those Spirit Herbs to my pet rooster.

A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

When the cultivators came to Earth, they destroyed our entire civilization in a matter of hours. Armies fell, cities burned, and that was before the moon turned red and filled our world with monsters. Now, over a decade later, what's left of humanity slaves under the heels of our Qi-infused masters. The luckiest of us might even become one of them, they say—if we serve the Dynasty well enough and harness the power of Qi. But I want none of that. I'm sick of serving, and I want nothing to do with their world. Instead, I want them to pay for what they did to mine.

Worth a Listen
While I will say I was often cringing a little at the beginning of the book I became quite enthralled by the end. There where some questionable word choices and sentences in the beginning. While the words didn't always mesh well together it drastically improved as the book progressed along with all subsequent books. If I had to take a guess I'd say the author found their stride and stopped overthinking things.
I've listened up until book four at this point and am quite pleased with the author and narrator. Both have done a wonderful job keeping the book entertaining. Keep up the good work guys!

It Was Alright
Very standard, typical. Not a whole lot of new, but decent nonetheless. It certainly got a lot better nearer to the end, but it wasn't necessarily bad nor amazing at any point.

Enjoyed it a lot
Since this book is the set up for the series it started a little slow as you got to understand the situation, the system and how it would affect earth and Zach.
Over all it was well paced, didn’t treat you like a complete idiot and didn’t get too deep into the mechanics, but deep enough you understand the power bands.
Would like to see a little more secondary character development, but honestly you can see it start to take shape at the end of the book, so I feel book 2 will get into it more.
For this style of book, if you like lit rpg/system style series, then it should appeal to you.

An interesting story that hints at much more to come
It’s a good story, very little of it is the main character talking at this point though I’m sure we will see the perspective shift. I love the hints at an endless multiverse immeasurable in size and population. I look forward to exploring it throughout the series. The voice acting suffers from something that drives me nuts, when all of the characters sound sullen or snotty or dumb. None of the characters get a voice that isn’t brittle or sullen sounding like a child even though they are older. It’s as if any voice but the narrators own narration voice ends up being cartoonish, nasally or like some classically portrayed 80’s TV sitcom nerd. I’m not throwing the narration out with the bath water, he has some good qualities including his narration voice and I hope the vocal performance settles down in upcoming books since I don’t think every single main character voice needs to be move up in register from the narration voice. But I trust the narrator and the narration is solid and clear, pleasant even. I find most narration undergoes an evolution through a series so I’ll hope for the same here.

An interesting premise
This story is a very interesting one and if you like to see the main character gain more and more power without it being boring and repetitive I recommend you try this story.

Gets better
The first half of the book is a bit rough however it does get quite a bit better once the demons and other NPC type characters are fleshed out and you start seeing different perspectives. Overall satisfying but only if you put at least 7 hours into it
Edit: After listening to the second book I can say that it is similar in tone to the later parts of this book and has been worth putting in the time as a listener. Updated start rating to 4 after a reread.

My favourite series
I listen to a ton of books while at work and I’ve never found a better series than this. At the time of this review there are 5 books out and they are all gold.
Do you like tons of action and bloodshed and dislike a book getting too into plot? This is the book for you
