The book starts out slow, drudge through the first hour or two, it is necessary for the story. After that first hour or two, everything moves at a better pace, very funny; crude-mature sense of humor is required. There are many times laughing aloud happens. The story is seamless, logical, the lit-rpg element is always present and makes sense. I highly recommend this book. You will want to listen to the rest of the series after this. I can not stress enough that you need to get through the first part of this book though – I almost stopped listening but soo glad I didn’t
