Publisher's Summary

Devon Walker has one chance to turn her life around. A half-wit ogre, a legion of overgrown jungle beasts, and a power-tripping AI are trying to stop her.

Relic Online is the hottest new game out there, and it's Devon Walker's best hope for escaping her hard-knock life. Thanks to her rocking achievements in other games, she's been hired as a salaried player. Even better, her new position comes with cutting-edge implants that turn RO's virtual reality into a full-sensory explosion. Her only task? Drive the game's creator AI to the outermost limits of its creativity.

Sounds easy, right?

But when Devon logs in, her expectations shatter like an ice golem hit with a sonic blast. Wearing nothing but a cloth tunic and ragged pants, she spawns inside a ruined city overgrown by steamy jungle. With zero skills and nothing in her inventory but pocket lint, she immediately runs afoul of the city's guardian, a stone golem the size of an apartment building. The encounter does not go well.

And Relic Online is just getting started with her.

Soundbooth Theater brings you another instant GameLit classic, narrated by Annie Ellicott. Paired with our troupe's vocal chameleon, Annie delivers yet another wonderful performance that brings Carrie Summers's world of Relic Online to life and will keep you hooked into this story filled with fast-paced action and methodically crunchy crafting and town building.

Finally a strong female lead.

It’s nice to finally listen to an audiobook of a strong female lead, and not strong because she is over powered but strong because she isn’t and you get to watch her grow and fail and try again.

A favourite

This book was nothing short of extraordinary. One of the best I have read for the genre. Incredible writing and extremely difficult to put down. The characters are interesting and likeable, especially the main character. The MC is also intelligent, resourceful, and relatable. Definitely going to continue with the series.

Wonderful start to the series

This is a great start to a fantastic series. Summers manages to really bring the immersion into her story by focusing less on mechanics and more on the characters and their relationships.

A few cliches with the Evil Corporation and brain dead CEO angle but over time this improves through the series. Also, Less is more when it comes to twist foreshadowing. This is an issue throughout the genre, with twists being obvious early in the story.

A great choice for people new to LitRPG and veterans of the Genre. I look forward to following Devon on her many adventures.

Soundbooth Theatre do an amazing job bringing the story to life in there Audiobook Performance, I Highly recommend the Audiobooks for this series.
