Publisher's Summary

The world has ended, and those worthy of it have received the chance for a new life in a new reality.

Zach grew in power and thrived in the post-Framework world. He became a respected leader, a shining example of what it meant to be good. But as the world ended, he had only one thought: to punish the monster that had killed the world long before the Framework ended it. Yet not even with his incredible power was he able to stand against the World Ender. His arrival in the new realty, the Infinite Realm, gives him the chance to grow stronger, to find the monster again - and make it pay.

Ryun survived the chaos after the arrival of the Framework by pushing harder than anyone else. He grew in power until he became the most powerful being that had ever walked the planet; but he is hated by the world, called a monster by all others, the World Ender. As the world ends and he steps into a new one, where people stronger than him have lived for centuries, he finds himself lost and without purpose. The only thing that had mattered to him had been lost to him long ago. He truly was the monster that people considered him to be, and he now finds himself wondering if this new reality has a place for someone like him - but he had never been one for lying down and dying without a fight. One world fell to his power, and another might follow.

Good story but!

The repetition of stat builds continuously throughout the books is tedious and takes away from the story. Still, the book is well thought out and it is well worth a listen!

If it wasn’t for Zach it would be perfection

Love the story and I get having Zach as an opponent for the future or something but he is just stupid and annoying after the first bit. Although I really hoped that Julie gets a miserable death in the past story.

Good book

The storyline and plot were great. I like how the story and how it shows different characters thoughts opinions and perspectives, i also thought the switching from past to present was interesting all its a great book.

Incredible book!

First up Phil Thron does an astounding job in this audio book, the quality and choice of voices for characters flawless. The writing is amazing and I absolutely adored Ryan’s character growth through the book. Having chapters focused on past events in between present events was genius and helped a lot in building the world and characters. I already know I’m going to buy this entire series and listen to all of it. 10/10 highly recommend.

I almost didnt get into it. what a mistake

the book started with past and present tenses before I had solidified who the characters were. I hated it and nearly dropped it. Thank god I didn't, I haven't enjoyed a book and it's characters as much since defiance of the fall, cradle or he who fights with monsters.

if you're a manwha cultivation junkie or just get a kick out of knowing the sky is the limit for a character and enjoying the rollercoaster they take to power, this is definitely for you.

the psychology of the past characters are written so well, I hate them. Linda is my joffrey

We’ll worth the money

Apart from the Audio being 30 hours long which is enough for me to give a bad book 3 stars. This book is extremely enjoyable. The past/present and different characters perspectives really adds to the story and is not annoying in any way.
If you are on the fence, buy this book you won’t regret it. I enjoyed it more than the Cradle series which I loved.

Exceptional

awesome story line and potential. good balance of 2 pronged story lines and evolution of circumstances and side characters and back storys. narration is good but could be better but still recommend as one of the better, yet underdeveloped LitRPG novels.

Dope LitRPG

Sick story with mean MC cultivation and pathway. Pretty smart and epic twist on a standard system integration apocalypse scenario. Well executed character development and engaging writing. Cheers to the author 👍
