Blood for Power: Book 1

An Apocalypse LitRPG

De: Scott W. James

Narrado por: Jonathan Waters

One man. One tower. One year to escape before everyone dies.

Lucas was shocked when he awoke to find the world had ended. An alien AI called the System had taken over Earth and transformed his apartment building into a 100-floor dungeon tower of traps, monsters, and loot. Trapped at the top, Lucas and the other residents have just one year to reach the ground floor and escape before the tower self-destructs.

That’s his first problem.

The second is he slept through the System’s welcome orientation, so a Class was picked for him. Lucas is now a Blood Reaver. A brutal Class based on speed, ferocity, and striking from the shadows. He’s expected not to just defeat his enemies, but to slaughter them and bathe in their blood. Their blood is now his power.

Outraged at being invaded, Lucas vows to grow stronger and take back his world. He will not only survive but thrive as he carves a bloody path to freedom.

a good litrpg book with a interesting world build

ever just have a dead sleep and miss super important messages? well, that's the main character! lol he has to make best with given "gifts" in a apocalypse style world. I can't say more on that or spoil the goods
the narration is well done and in a voice that can be made out well with good audio
the main character has his flaws that make it interesting to see what he will do with a mess of different elements agenst him and friends/allys the ending? well that makes me impatient to get the next book can't wait

Power of Blood

Wow this book is really fast paced. From start to finish, it just goes for an adventure.

Why not just stick a bleeding corpse up his...

This is just so hard to get into. The bird is the best part of the book. The MC is okay, just every time he gets hurt "Let me roll around in this roadkill and I'll be good as new!" or so it seems. You expect a certain amount of plot armor for MCs, but this dude is in a dome, layered with bubble wrap, and covered in all kinds of armor. I never really feel like there is any chance he or his bird will die. Oh no, I got a serious cut, good thing the enemies blood splashed on me and gave me "Just enough" healing to keep going! Bleh

Great book 1

This is a great start to a series it draws u in early and doesn’t let you go for even one minute 10/10

great book

author and narrator did an amazing job. not sure why everyone is complaining about the MC...oh I forgot there all amazing and would handle a situation like this with a calm and collective head and not make a single mistake. anyways great book, good progression. I just hope we don't have to wait a year for more.

the classes and the tower climb.

I like the progression and the characters. Hugo is hilarious to me and his class is dope. Lucas class is one of my favorite of any series so far.

Awesome

Okay at first i was kinda afraid it was going to be one of those stories that lower the IQ of the MC just to make it funny but no it was just trying to portray how of out of his deep the mc was at the beginning but after he gets some experience fighting the comedy act goes down, there's still some comedy but not at the expense of the MC and the story ends up being a harsh one where people are not safe at all. and at the end i recommend this one to any fan of the tower climbing genre.

Diet DCC not as ridiculous

Nice start to a new series pseudo vampire novel. I will be sticking around to see where this goes

different class archetype makes a gripping tale.

the different class archetype and sarcastic system make this an enjoyable read. the host of different characters make this a good all around read without making it boring.
I can't wait for book 2 to come out.

The blood of thy enemies

great story interesting Mc
unique class for genre.

narrator did excellent job.
will definitely be adding to my watch list for next book.
