Publisher's summary

Marc is all too aware that the end of the acclimatization year the System has provided to Earth is quickly drawing to a close and that others will be allowed onto the planet to start claiming areas shortly. Zeus has promised that his series of quests will get Marc, at least, to the maximum level reachable in that first year, but Marc is nervous that it isn't going to happen.

With the transformation of his Safe Zone network into a Kingdom, Marc finds more responsibilities, Fortunately for him, even the help files on the Kingdom recommend delegating authority and, as a result, Sean finds himself with more work than ever. The transformation to a Kingdom also gives Marc some new options. Now he can convert dungeons he completes into Training Dungeons, designed to be more survivable, although giving fewer benefits in the process of completing them. He can also create Training Dungeons from dungeon cores that he has claimed, giving him lots of options to build a strong defensive force for the Kingdom.

With a little bit of abuse of the System's rules, Marc's Kingdom makes it into the Space Age, allowing them to accept Zeus' final quest. A visit to a secret base on the moon gives them the final thing needed for Zeus and Hera to launch their attack on the System in their endeavor to replace it with their own 'kinder, gentler' version.

Definitely a series worth listening/reading. Loved the progression throughout.

The progression towards the end is great, found myself laughing at Mark's plights and Jeff's antics yet again. Sad this is the final book. Would love to see the story carried on either 5 or 10 years after the events of the end of the book. Finally an explanation for the source of the system and it's very satisfying.

A fantastic ride

I wish it kept going. but this seems to be the end if marks story

Great world

Hate the MC, his GF is REALLY lame and I don’t care for the way they treat members of their team… imagine D&D first time paladin (self righteous) who’s also somehow the DM (so it’s his show). Then multiply x2 and add in that the author seems to have had no positive male role models growing up so he has terrible and inane male interactions. The MC is thin skinned and impossible to imagine as any kind of leader. On the technical side the authors use of an internal dialogue (which he then immediately shares out loud… smh) is a very very bad. No one wants to hear a conversation twice and it’s a lazy writing tool. Lastly, the writer needs an editor… there is no reason to “fugue state” twenty times in 6 paragraphs, at some point It can be implied.

Great series

Really enjoyed this series. Like the magic system and story lines. One complaint is Felica.

Love it

Love the series the story and pace was good but the end was a little rushed as they say bye felicia

I love it

A great conclusion to an awesome story

Keeps you at the edge of your seat until the very end. A very satisfying read and ending to a great series.
