Awesome

Didn't really expect the sex scenes straight up, but it was a great story and can't wait to read the next one.

awesome, unique and different premise. very cool

So take pokemon and not the creatures, instead use all the awesome monsters and creatures from fantasy we all know. then use them for battle against a incursion of portals invading the land with monsters with a chance to capture them if you can kill them before they kill you. Thats a small example of a summoner and it is awesome. Also add mages who fight and use powers similar to the last airbender but no real restraints on how many elements can be controlled, with normal soldiers equipped with both guns (flintlock, repeater, pistol etc) and fantasy swords and such and so much more. All set within an industrial revolution era/fantasy world, the universe created is very cool, intriguing with endless possibilities. the narrator is excellent and does a number of defined voices each their own. definitely a great read and will continue with the series.

Great Book

Great book love the story line, once you start to get a few books in though some of them are basically just sex with story here and there which is frustrating as i love the story and wish he would back of on the sex but that wont happen. also he had a argument with audible so only the first 16 books are available here... if you want more you have to go to his website

I am very confused

I wanted to love this, and it was alright but, there is a lot that drove me nuts.

the main character is perfect in every way
he is the strong
so smart he teaches his teacher
the best and everything he does
all the girls love home
his family is Dead but he doesn't care

oh and the explicit moments are
she is hot
1hr later we got up got dressed
you can tell she wanted more.

I really hope it picks up because I want to listen to it.
I am going to probably listen to it all any way. I'll comment again when I see a change but for now I'll see you at the end of the series

Ok framework needs more

I enjoyed the book overall, but the writing itself is shockingly bad. Conflicted because I like the idea and the world, but it’s like a novice web novel that’s written as fast as possible and not caring about making a structured story, and yet the sex scene's have more detail that ANYTHING else in the story. Book could easily be twice as long if it was re written properly .

Average

Meet Gryff, an abnoxious hero that has hardly any flaws and never loses.
Every other character seems to have more personallity & character development than the Protaganist does.
The world seems to be well written for the most part with lots of lore happening in the background.

As for Joshua Story's performance: it is good but goes downhill in the later books, seems they've gone for quantity over quality, few spots across the series where a sentance will repeat itself, Joshua often miss pronounces words or sentances, and the audio mixing can be downright terrible at times. Feels like they didn't bother doing any of the editing proccess that would normally go into audio books, seen youtube vids with better editing.

Wish fulfillment central.

There was way too many wish fulfillment aspects to this novel, to the point where it was sickening.

from being the first to realise his class was decent, to monsters being overpowered and fitting every situation as a plot device. the relationship dynamics are non existent. the mc can slerp with 100 different girls and the others will just go along with it.

The only thing I really enjoyed was the cover art.

main character is a Gary Sue

main character just does not have any faults. does not need to build himself up for any reason
