About this listen
Jack is violently pulled into a game-like universe and dumped into a seaside town on the brink of destruction. When the people of Blackmoor Cove begin to ask about his combat role, Jack discovers his odd Hero Class and finds that parts of his game interface are riddled with exposed coding errors.
He quickly learns that the only way the town can grow and push back the unknown substance threatening to consume it is if brave Heroes venture into an infinitely high, ever-changing tower, kill bizarre monsters for their valuable equipment drops, and then deposit those items into a special chest.
As Jack struggles to level up and help save the people he has grown to care for, he learns the true nature of this simulated world and his destiny.... But can he overcome his reckless nature and become the leader this strange world needs?
This “crunchy” GameLIT/LitRPG story contains: item-based game mechanics, town building, countless unique monsters, boss fights, and cheaty special abilities.

Awesome sound design.
Vague hints of imminent doom for not grinding a game can only get you so far, while the levels were sort of unique thier implementation was very one note, with the romance being quite shallow. Jack is basically the rebound guy along with being the only other romantic interest of the only other hero in the village.
the only thing they gave as hype for going up the tower is filling up equipment slots and getting more points. It goes into great length to explain what will happen in the future ( fight anti hero, fight corruption as level increases, trade with other towns etc) with the factors that provide any difficulty being solved by the ship.
Instead of a race against time, its a race against the end if his lifespan, which dramatically lowers the tension.
overall its a okay story with voicing especially the songs and the end part with the harbor master.

Action heavy
I thought that this was a fantastic edition to the LitRPG genre. The author does a good job giving his own game system and world building. What really sold this story was the audiobook as there were three actors and some special sound effects tossed in. If you have the extra money I recommenced that you go for the audible version.
Plot: Jack is a miner who stumbles on a space ship. He is zapped into a computer game. The name of the game is to feed items to the local town, giving it the energy to fight off a universe eating monster force.
Characters.
Jack starts off as careless person who is tossed into a game world. He has a reckless attitude at the start of the book but over time learns from his mistakes.
There are other characters in the book but I feel that explaining their backstory might give away the story.
Overall thoughts:
I am immediately buying the next book. It's a great edition to anyone's LitRPG library. If I do have a criticism of this book it is very minor. I would have liked the author to expand the dropped items. Food, crafting materials, quest loot, seeds. Just more variety than weapons and armour.

Genuinely Enjoyable
This... is a great story. It was a smooth, easy listen - wasn't too sure about having three narrators at first, but it worked - and the story was fun and easy to follow.
Setup was great, adventuring was great, dungeons were great and characters were three dimensional and interesting. There's a lot of great gamelit / litrpg books out there... and also unfortunately a lot of bad ones. This is one of the good ones folks - and well worth a listen.
