About this listen
Zane was driving home from work when the world changed.
Thousands of dungeons spawned at once, taking up every inch of Earth—including the road he’s driving on. He wakes up to a totaled car and a broken leg, facing down a goblin trying to spear him through the guts. And that's just the start of it.
But to Zane’s surprise, he finds himself enjoying this brutal new world. While others cower and hide, he goes on the hunt. He unlocks a unique Berserker skill—the more damage he takes, the stronger he gets.
Soon he’s beating down monster hordes, solo clearing dungeons, unlocking powerful Skills, and striking out to conquer more and more.
It turns out Zane was born to fight. And in this new world rife with terrible monsters and awesome powers alike, where opportunity is anyone’s for the taking, he’ll thrive.
An action-packed blend of LitRPG Apocalypse and Xianxia with 2 million views on Royalroad. Perfect for fans of Defiance of the Fall, The Primal Hunter, and Road to Mastery!

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. 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.

In just seven days, the world will crumble. The System's Descent will usher in a new era of chaos: wild animals mutating, monstrous creatures emerging, and the cessation of modern technology. Humanity will be left defenseless. Drew Wright knows none of this. At least not until he is rudely ripped from his bed and thrust into a white room to undergo a taser-happy ‘Tutorial’. Turns out, he is one of a thousand randomly selected people to be forewarned of the approaching apocalypse. Now, he faces the delightful task of convincing his wife and mother of the devastation hurtling towards them.

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.

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.

Adastra339, Christian Gilligan's, & Overall Story are fantastic!
Fast pace but not to fast, great character building, & not to much time into levels, skill, laws, essence, etc. The story just draws you in & you want to hear more. Your main character Zane (Savage Sage) is a beast but not a complete emotionless, unempathetic, barbarian. He just likes hitting shit...alot! But you'll soon realize he has mad skill & is insightful & intuitive. Like I said, he's not an idiot, far from it in fact. Also, Avery is my next favorite character, her voice is a bit naisaly but you soon forget about it. There's lots of character dialogue too which is SOOOO REFRESHING. I get so sick of stories where the author just explains opposed to character dialogue explains what's happening (Ie-Zane gets pissed off at the narcistic merchant baring his way or ' Get out of my way you arrogant narcissist or I'm gonna beat your head in ' said Zane. Fuck ya! Lol. Much more exciting right...)

Crazy but fun.
I read the books and liked them enough to get the audiobooks. If you’re good at suspending belief like you have to be to enjoy this type of book it’s very entertaining. I thought the narrator did I really good job. I enjoyed how well he did Zane.

The book was really good. The characters are interesting and the fights were pretty fun. The main character made me smile and chuckle quite a few times. I felt like the story slowed down and dragged in a few spots but overall I am looking forward to the next book.

Discount Defier
The similarities between this and 'Defiance of the fall' are so blatant the book seemed like a bad parody at times. I even referred to the main character as "Zach" instead of "Zane" several times when talking to others. Its not a horrible book by any means but if your looking for anything new look elsewhere, if your addicted to the genre (like me) and don't mind listening to VERY mid books from time to time, sure pick it up.
The bland writing even affects how the Narrator sounds at times. Hearing Christian Gilliland say stuff like 'sick' or 'swag' unironically makes me cringe a little. He is a fantastic Narrator, but this book would have done better with someone younger sounding with a little bit more life in the reading, especially during fight scenes.
The book lacks an identity.

unusual main character
I couldnt relate well to the strong but silent main character, but i still enjoyed the story. The characters were all very distinct and believably realistic. The main character developed well through the story.
The progression details did annoy me a bit, but i was able to put those aside and found myself laughing often, especially later on.
