Resumen del Editor

Devour. Level up. Repeat.

Upon awakening in an abandoned lab, Evelyn is empowered by a system that grants her bloody magical powers in exchange for finishing missions and consuming her enemies. She knows one truth: no matter the cost, she will advance. She'll manipulate allies and spread demonic corruption with a smile if that's what it takes to level up.

Her first mission is to escape the lab's other newly born creations. But once she steps foot into the world outside of the lab, she must contend with people who forbid her existence and who will work to eradicate those with her powers from the face of the planet.

The outside world may be vast and deadly, but Evelyn will be deadlier.

Don't miss the start of this action-packed series from Aaron Shih, a fast-paced litRPG progression fantasy novel featuring weak-to-strong progression, demons, an intricate magic system, and a whole lot of blood.

Fast pace! She will advance!

I really like that the action basically didn’t stop from start to finish. Even the pets with a bit of necessary exposition happened mid freaking battle! Eat the babies! Eat the adults too! ADVANCE!

The story of a Villain.

A genuine, true to feeling story of someone who is not a hero. Not an anti-hero. But a villain through and through. Our protagonist is not human, not entirely, yet desires to be so and desires power above all. It’s refreshing, to see a truly evil, character that can still be so driving and relatable.

Not by any means a “New York bestseller” this story appeals to a specific audience, those looking for a bloody tale of survival in a world with an outright violent clash of fantasy and science. Yet considering the violence of the narrative it’s more than fitting to sit back and enjoy the show.

great listen hook line an I'm inn

can't wait till next mabey she make more girlfriends 😍 I recommend you give it a listen.

Evelyn rocks!

what a interesting character that Evelyn is. I really enjoy the mix between her and her two companions. I can't wait to the next installment. five stars all around. I highly recommend it to anyone!

Not Bad

Overall, quite entertaining. Evelyn is the amoral monster we can all secretly cheer for. There was some anime level dialogue here and there, like the "fighting ferociously with someone for a long time and then stopping to chat with them before the final blow" style of thing. Also, Evelyn basically has deus ex machina skill that is more than cheating. Still, it's a fun power romp of carnage and leveling. It isn't anything monumentally special but a good listen and worth a credit if you are into these types of stories.

Strong start, boring ending.

The beginning of the book was absolutely brutal and gore filled. That pace did not last the whole book. It became more of an adventure story with a mix of horror rather than a horror story with a mix of adventure. Towards the end it was pretty typical litrpg novel pacing and combat. It was very light on character development or witty dialogue with too much of an emphasis on 30 minute fight scenes. Overall it was fine, I guess, just not what the first few minutes had lead me to believe it would be.

It was ok..

It’s just an ok story…nothing that special. I’m hoping the next book is better.

this was an amazing read. the 3rd book will be available for audio in July.

so unlike other litrp she wasn't transported to another world but this was an amazing take on litrpg. this was a take on the MC being opposite of a "good guy" that most litrpg are. I highly recommend it. my research says July 2024 for the 3rd book and that was a note from the author. also the 3rd book completed the series which is not common but im glad as some are frustrating long and you'd like to hear a good ending. narrator was good. shining I'll definitely be looking for your other books.

great book

great book can't wait to see what happens next can't wait for adventure can you give you

Monster, Mayhem, and Victims.

It's a pretty good book. Initially, it focuses on a monster girl trying to blend in and survive while on the run. As the story progresses, larger forces start to influence her, pushing her to come to terms with her true monstrous nature (the whole idea of adversity fostering growth and all). By the end, she becomes a bloodthirsty entity who enjoys killing – not completely without reason (though perhaps slightly), but as part of a calculated plan to gain levels and collect skills she covets. I'm definitely excited for the sequel.
