About this listen

Devour. Level up. Repeat.

Upon awakening in an abandoned lab, Evelyn is empowered by a system that grants her bloody magical powers in exchange for finishing missions and consuming her enemies. She knows one truth: no matter the cost, she will advance. She'll manipulate allies and spread demonic corruption with a smile if that's what it takes to level up.

Her first mission is to escape the lab's other newly born creations. But once she steps foot into the world outside of the lab, she must contend with people who forbid her existence and who will work to eradicate those with her powers from the face of the planet.

The outside world may be vast and deadly, but Evelyn will be deadlier.

Don't miss the start of this action-packed series from Aaron Shih, a fast-paced litRPG progression fantasy novel featuring weak-to-strong progression, demons, an intricate magic system, and a whole lot of blood.

Decent

I love the concept but it feels a bit all over the place. The world seems to consistently be changing, and feels like the author is deciding on new aspects as they go with out build up or foreshadowing. The main character is one note, however that would be acceptable in an less than one month old demon born in violence. The other character feel awkward and forced, or idolized and favored. This isn’t a problem on its own because characters grow, changing and becoming more interesting as the story progresses.

I really enjoyed the first half of this book, the action was good, pacing was thrilling, and the LitRPG progressing was fun. However upon the absurd coincidence of Evelin encountering the the secondary characters who’s names I have a hard time recalling, it quickly becomes clear that the author has trouble writing characters. Evelin I can excuse, the various guards hunting her down, even the healer. All fine because they serve as adversaries or very short term characters that we’ll likely never see again. These new companions are cardboard cutouts. Even when fighting the baby dragons under the city they stand on the sidelines and let Evelin do all the fighting. Which doesn’t make any god damn sense because the whole point of them being there is because something something Jade wanted to hunt them.

The narrator could use a lot of work. They’re female character voices feel too similar, the male character voices are worse. Took almost 4 hours to get used to and kept slipping out of the story because of it.

It’s such a shame because the concept is interesting, and I really wanted to like Evelin. But the many other issues in this book make it a hard sell, and even harder read.
