Awaken Online: Catharsis

De: Travis Bagwell

Narrado por: David Stifel

Jason logs into Awaken Online fed-up with reality. He's in desperate need of an escape, and this game is his ticket to finally feeling the type of power and freedom that are so sorely lacking in his real life.

Awaken Online is a brand new virtual reality game that just hit the market, promising an unprecedented level of immersion. Yet Jason quickly finds himself pushed down a path he didn't expect. In this game, he isn't the hero. There are no damsels to save. There are no bad guys to vanquish.

In fact, he might just be the villain.

Slow start, but awesome

The book starts slow and I'll be honest, the narrator at first grates on my ears. That said, if you stick with it through the first few chapters it's well worth it. the book is well written and makes you really feel the main characters perspective. I found myself grinning and laughing at several scenes not because they were necessarily funny but because they were awesome. I could see myself in the characters shoes and being overjoyed at what was going on. I'm not sure if the narration improved or if I just got used to it but after a few chapters even that didn't bother me. Overall, I highly recommend the book. It was great to see a story from the "villains" perspective. Excited to start the next book!

amazing story

Absolutely enthralled by Jason's rise to power using superb intelligence and tactics to get there

Great overall

Story was a bit awkward to get into. But a bit into the book i was pretty happy with how things were going.

I think the main characters rise to power was a bit rapid. Would have been better to see this books ending be more like a second book. So much power happening so quickly makes it seem invincible and leaves the growth a bit less room than I think would be preferred.

Couldn't put it down..

Any additional comments?

Best audio book I've ever listened to. I can't wait until book two comes out!

One of the best endings in LITRPG

This book starts off slow but has good detail that I personally related to. The ending of the book is so action packed it will leave you on the edge of your seat. Definitely a must listen when is comes to litrpg books.
