I found myself intrigued by the sudden twist that shatters the protagonist’s bright future as the scion of two powerful Slayers. Having enjoyed the author’s previous series, I decided to give this one a try.

The narrative starts off at a slow pace, with a significant focus on world-building that eventually pays off towards the end. The deliberate pace sets the stage for a more intricate and immersive experience, providing a solid foundation for the story’s development.

However, the book concludes in a way that feels like it’s only a portion of the larger tale. The sense of an unfinished story leaves me eager for the next installment, as the promising start and the unresolved elements hint at more exciting developments to come.

Phil Thron’s narration adds another layer to the storytelling, capturing the essence of the protagonist’s journey and enhancing the overall listening experience. His delivery brings the characters to life, contributing to the immersive quality of the audiobook.

A slow but rewarding buildup with a feeling that it’s only the beginning of a larger narrative. The anticipation for the next installment is palpable, making it a promising start to what seems to be an engaging LitRPG adventure series.
