Awaken Online: Inferno

Tarot Series, Book 3

De: Travis Bagwell

Narrado por: David Stifel

The epic conclusion of the Tarot series!

A crippling wound. A war looming on the horizon. A demon king to kill.

Finn and his companions barely escaped their encounter with Bilel. But not without a cost - including the loss of Finn's left arm and the magical corruption that now plagues his body.

Despite those handicaps, Finn must keep pressing forward if he is to have any hope of bringing Rachael back. As the Seer predicted, the guilds and Khamsin have formed a fragile alliance. But before they can lay siege to Lahab, Finn and his companions must first find a way to defend themselves and their fledgling army from the effects of the god relic that Bilel now wields....

Which will send them deep into the heart of an ancient workshop. Along the way, they'll encounter advanced magical technology, new friends and foes, and will be pushed well beyond their limits. They will be reforged in the fires of adversity - forced to prove their mettle, even with the odds stacked against them.

Hopefully, it will be enough.

Because soon they will face a demon king and his armies.

It all comes together.

Pretty good story honestly. It wasn't my favorite of the series but still really good. I see that now things are connected in many ways which makes me ready for another story about Jason's crew.

Amazing progression!

Absolutely love the entire book and the story that has unfolded on far! Can’t wait to see where it continues to take us in the future!

Extremely interesting and completely unexpected twist In the epilogue!

A good continuation

this book makes me feel like he's a better main character than Jason. like he has more to lose. look forward to reading what happens

Inferno

A satisfying and enjoyable to the conclusion of Finns main storyline. It’s fun to see not only an adult as a main character but also one who is an engineer.

Surprisingly good

Wasn’t sure what to expect however over the 3 books in this arc, the story is very engaging, kept me coming back to see what happened next…. Highly recommend

Amazing

The entire series is fantastic and very well developed. it would have been nice to have additional voices

Another great addition.

The writing, tie ins, and overall plot are what litrpg should be. Travis bagwell has furthered this genre again.

a cool story, but 1 large issue

I really enjoyed this story and was pleasantly surprised by the depth of character and world building the authorI really enjoyed this story and was pleasantly surprised by the depth of character and world building.

that said... How can the MC have some kind of iron will and have a will power score of 30 the whole time!? shouldn't it have scaled at least a little?... 4 stars for that repeated frustration.

I don’t know...

It’s a good story, and on par with all of the other Awaken Online novels, but for some reason, I have a problem with David Stifel’s narration here. It’s not the writing. It’s how he portrays feeling and emotion. Both Kyle, Julia, and Daniel all sound the exact same, and his narration makes Kyle sound like a whiny child. When Daniel acts like an adolescent, it makes sense, and he even eludes to him coming of age (for lack of a better term), and developing into his character. Kyle however just sounds like a 13 year old, .Likewise, Finn and his enemy sound the exact same, especially during the final battle.

As far as the story: ***SPOILER ALERT*** the ending was predictable, but I understand why. It’s going to tie into everything else. I’m certain in the very end, all players will have to be allied together to beat their various deities, once Travis has written enough books of them fighting each other and they’re tired of being pawns. That being said, during the books where the players will all be fighting each other, I have zero loyalty towards Finn and his team. I can’t cheer for Finn and company because too many of the Fire Elemental teammates are unlikeable due to the narration,, because he’s allied with Alexion who has literally paid goons to murder another player in real life, because his daughter his illegally hacking to get a leg up, and because Finn truly thought he’d get his wife back just like that, no strings attached. The epilogue killed any redeeming qualities Finn may have had. I know….pay any cost for your dead wife’s return, but have a little honor and dignity. I hope Jason and his team crush the pathetic need to be loved by the easily manipulated Alexion, as well as Finn and his band of whiny mages. I’m sure taking a side is exactly what Travis was hoping for, so well done on creating a story that stirs these emotions in me. I’m having a lot of fun in this world and can’t wait for the next one!

great end. wish it weren't the end.

that last chapter had me giggling and clapping. loved the whole book, want more finn.

Edit: for some reason it only let me rate it with two stars. I hope this is fixed now. Good thing I checked.
