Good performance

It was a good performance. The narrator was a good one. Shame that the story was trash. If you want to read a ripoff LitRPG book, then this is the book for you.

DNF

Did not finish. Story is about a dude who gets teleported to the future and enters a game with the aim of winning it and getting a corporate job.

Thousands of other applicants have prepared all their life for this opportunity, yet he somehow bumbles through ever scenario making mistake after mistake, each of which turns out to be accidentally brilliant, teleporting him ahead of the competition.

Point of View chapters form other applicants show them thinking he's a super genius, but in reality this whole story was a one trick pony that just kept repeating the same joke. I'm all good with that, but sooner or later I need some actual skill and strategy from my MC.

This book gets a grudging 4 stars because if you enjoy this sort of thing, it's probably a good read. Editing was decent, storyline (once belief is suspended) was decent. Narration was decent. But I couldn't finish the book.

Read if you like your heroes to stumble through their stories with zero skill and max. accidental heroism. Avoid like the plague if you don't.
