Temple of Sorrow

Stonehaven League, Book 1

By: Carrie Summers

Narrated by: Annie Ellicott, Jeff Hays

Devon Walker has one chance to turn her life around. A half-wit ogre, a legion of overgrown jungle beasts, and a power-tripping AI are trying to stop her.

Relic Online is the hottest new game out there, and it's Devon Walker's best hope for escaping her hard-knock life. Thanks to her rocking achievements in other games, she's been hired as a salaried player. Even better, her new position comes with cutting-edge implants that turn RO's virtual reality into a full-sensory explosion. Her only task? Drive the game's creator AI to the outermost limits of its creativity.

Sounds easy, right?

But when Devon logs in, her expectations shatter like an ice golem hit with a sonic blast. Wearing nothing but a cloth tunic and ragged pants, she spawns inside a ruined city overgrown by steamy jungle. With zero skills and nothing in her inventory but pocket lint, she immediately runs afoul of the city's guardian, a stone golem the size of an apartment building. The encounter does not go well.

And Relic Online is just getting started with her.

Aleron caliber

I’m sure authors hate to be compared to others but not since Dr. Kong’s The Land have I found LitRPG I liked as well as the ToS. The action is solid, the main character is likable and there are all the main races that make a fantasy novel fun.. that’s probably the main aspect of this book I enjoyed, it was fun. I can’t wait for the next in the series!

When is the next one??

All i can say is that I check back here at least once a week to see if the sequel have made it to Audible yet

GREAT BOOK!!!!!

Women authors need to be promoted more. I love this genre, but am sick of the harems. Not in this book. Fantastically developed characters, great plot, great game mechanics, and a very well paced story. Annie and Jeff did amazing work, as always.

Temple of Sorrow...loved this!

I could not put it down! More, please!! As a gamer myself and an avid reader putting the 2 together was perfect for me. the audio version allowed me time to 'read' even during my busy schedule.

Good book, great peeformamce

Sound booth as usual is awesome enhancing the book greatly. Story overall was entertaining but short. The only issue is if you are an experienced mmo player the MC is an experienced newb, i.e. played a mmo significantly after launch and was helped by others, this explains away her incorrect ideas and style of play for the most part.
