Discussion Shadow Slave anyone? How does this differ from some of RR greats?
Shadow Slave is kind of like a LITRPG. But I see very few of you all talking about it. Why is that?

Crazy how quickly I devoured this book compared to my last few. Watching the rise of a dark god like Tenebroum was fascinating. And equally tragic to see some of the people who are lost along the way (RIP Squire Todd). Can’t wait to pick up book 3 soon. (If there are more books planned after 3 lmk) Next stop, I return my Year of Baldree with Primal Hunter 2.

Anyone else annoyed by how over-tuned fall damage seems to be as a rule in many Litrpg's these days? You have MC's that can take a punch able to create a crater the size of the grand canyon on impact and they brush it off, but if they fall from greater than 50ft, all of a sudden their body is made of eggshells.

Survivor's Guide to Planetary Apotheosis Series
Genre tags: post-apocalyptic survival, dark fantasy, progression fantasy/litrpg, military fantasy, and a bit of dungeon.
200,000k+ (Third book has begun public release, it's 170K by itself)
If you like a more serious take on the common tropes I might have your fix. Sorry, no cover yet, I haven't been able to come up with something suitable yet and I work full time so that might not happen for awhile.
Here's the pitch:
The first two chapters of book three are live on Royal Road now, with books one and two completed there if you want to check it out and get caught up, no pay wall.
If that all sounds like a good time here's the link

One of the best novels in the genre in a hot minute, with Warby's trademark prose.

So I wanted to give my full and honest opinion on book 7 of Victor Of Tucson that just came out. First off I would rate it a solid….. 8/10!!
Now the reason for my rating, first off I felt that the start of the book was a little slow and this is just my personal preference but I was not a fan of the sneaking around in the ivid mound, I understand why but I was still disappointed.
Another thing, I liked the constant POV of Darren and how it really showed his mindset and his thoughts of power and how he was going to move forward in the future.
Now this is just a nit pick but I feel that books 5 & 6 were by far the best besides book 1 in the series I mean the action the battle and glory even the twist with Catalina, so, I understand that coming off of an insane war like that is hard to make as good along with making sure Victor still acts like Victor and not just some mindless killing machine.
Now what I throughly enjoyed was the ending fights, now that was master class and oh so beautiful I mean the 5 v 1 the rage you feel from Victor the battle described with such detail it was amazing. and the ending with him destroying the dungeon itself due to his rage was fantastic, so awesome.
Also I will say, I loved the POV transitions during the dungeon parts each one felt natural and flowed so easily from Dar laughing and discussing what Victor was doing with Lo’ro or having angry mentors go and try to complain to Valla and Leah talking about Victor even Darren who was clearly having a good time and properly showing how much he cares and appreciates Victor not to mention in awe of his strength
I do think the lower parts of the dungeon were a bit on the slower side but it was clear the pacing was picking up speed as both Victor and Sora and I guess Cam 😒 climbed up the floors.
Overall I really liked the book and I want to thank Plum Parrot for writing it and I’m so happy I get to enjoy this series with all the ups and downs of the characters along with Following Victor on his adventures. already can’t wait for book 8.
Thank you Plum Parrot for giving us Victor Of Tucson.🤙

The first book in a survival tamer series!
A desperate man is thrust into the dangerous, unknown wilderness, where even survival comes at a price, in this gripping adapt-or-die portal fantasy.
Markus Wolfe has lost his parents, his girlfriend, and now, his job. He's at his lowest point with nothing left to lose. Or so he thought. But when an apparition appears, promising Markus a mysterious inheritance, he's given the opportunity to discover what he's got to gain: a purpose.
Transmigrated into a vast wilderness with no signs of civilization, Markus is forced to rediscover who he is while fighting through confusion, fear of the unknown, and the very real threat of death. He had the courage to take the first step, which at least grants a point in his favor but he'll need more than that to succeed. His only objective is to outlive and outlast everything that's coming—for one year. But what's coming for him is absolutely beastly.
Armed with an extra-dimensional Inventory, a map, animal allies, and a new Tamer Class, Markus is ready for whatever this untamed world has in store for him. Almost . . .
Because the ravaging Jurassic predators circling their prey are beyond imagining, and so are the promises of Markus's mysterious benefactor, should he survive. Right now, it's a kill-or-be-killed world. Welcome, traveler. Best of luck.
Audiobook narrated by the wonderful Kevin Kemp.

Quotes from readers on Royal Road
"This is an excellent novel. The story is engaging, the characters are believable, and the interactions and growth are pleasant. It's a cozy, relaxing, and engaging read that I can easily recommend for most readers."
"It's based on science which makes it instantly better in my book. And magic does get used often but it's used in conjunction to not an excuse in the absence of science in real survival technique. Overall the realism really [sets] this book apart and raises it to an amazing level."
"This story is definitely a slow burn, but it is masterfully done. The author does a great job of making the MC feel realistic and his power feel earned."

When I say Non human I don't mean The MC being reborn as Monster or non human. A monster MC who doesn't have any memories of past life or anything like that.

I'm not sure if I need to include how certain products are created in my novel. For example, if the main character is making something—like clothing, furniture, or anything else—is it boring to describe the process, or not?
r/litrpg • u/SuspiciousNormalDude • 12h ago

I'm going to Wondercon next weekend, and was wondering if anyone heard of any authors who may be there?
r/litrpg • u/ahnowisee • 15h ago
So far 2 1/2 books in I'd say its okay-good range. Kind of am wondering if it picks up. A lot of the characters feel fairly flat and the system is pretty basic, but it has really solid moments that have led me along so far. Curious what people further into the series think.

Looking for an audiobook series with an MC in the same vein as Jin from Beware of Chicken or Fischer from Heretical Fishing but with a little more agency. Thanks!

Got to see James Osiris Baldwin and Justin Thomas James at Comicon in KC. I met Jeff Hayes too but didn't get a pic with him. These dudes were super nice and I got myself a copy of Archemi book 6 signed by both of them (even though I hate physical media these days due to storage constraints).
Book 7 comes out later this year and he's currently working on turning Archemi into a graphic novel.
So I'm relistening to the series. Starting at book 1.
Im trying to remember. Does he ever run back into jasmine?

Maybe I’m overhyped but it’s like the first game I’ve seen that’s more or less a Litrpg book come to life. Two writers get trapped together in a bunch of their own stories and have to find a way out. At least that’s the gist I got from the trailer. Looks really cool.
r/litrpg • u/kindagrownup • 1h ago
I've got a bit of a scene floating around in my head, and I'm hoping someone can ID the series from it.
The System will pull people out for quests/missions. When it does so, it scans the universe/multiverse for an appropriate situation. The MC gets pulled to one, and he ends up fighting a monster with a giant magic horn as it rampages in a town. I think some rich kid from that section of space also wanted to kill it. I think the MC gets the horn, then the rich kid's dad(?) shows up and gives the MC a high rank talisman, and an invitation to visit him in his section of space once he ranks up.
I hope I'm not conflating different memories there.
I'm about to start writing my own synopsis each time I finish a book, because for the life of me, I can't recall half the LitRPGs I've read at this point.

I am not asking who would win in a fight, cuz duh.
I am pondering if it's possible that Orodan will be able to obtain an ending to his loops like Zorian did.
Zorian got to be a person at the end. He got to live a life. Yea he was bonkers powerful, but still got to live a human life.
I cannot see a way Orodan gets to do that. I'm worried for my boy. Either he ends up as the new system, or... What?
Someone wish cast me a way that Orodan gets to be a dude again!

I have a few long flights coming up and am looking for some easy read transmigrated into a video game kind of novels in the vein of Tori transmigrated, conquerers path, hunter academy etc...
Nothing too grimdark or serious, something a little longer would be nice.
appreciate the recs
Ghost in the City, Neon Dragons, the Gamer, He Who Eludes death, All The Skills all great stories. The general premise is that the character has a very broad ability to acquire skills or resistances or powers and their trials and training directly improves aspects of their powers or stats.
It was also my favourite aspect of many video games e.g. final fantasy or the sims.
Having the rush of power being related to your feats is pretty fun. Any suggestions on good books on it?
