Predictably OP

Harem LitRPGs are my guilty pleasure. They're hard to do right, but so worth it when they do.

This book is... not done right. The main character is thrust from nothing into greatness and danger, together with the hottest girl who turns out to always have had a crush on him. But everything - from Tim's origins to introducing him to the world of summoners to how to summon a monster to what makes him special to the danger he faces to his relationships - all happens so fast that it feels hollow, like the author wanted to skip the boring parts to get right to the good stuff. Except that without the boring parts it just doesn't work. It might work better if the main character was more humble or scared by everything going on, but no - Tim is so confident that he simply takes charge of every situation he's in and everyone else follows him. It's hard to feel sympathy for him when he's like that in every scene.

The narrators, on the other hand, are superb. I've always loved books that have a narrator of each gender to do the voices, and both our narrators here are excellent - the timing, the many voices and accents, the emoting - I would absolutely listen to books they narrated again.

...Just not from this series. Sorry.
