love it! more recommendations at bottom

if you like "reborn" lit RPGs where the mc gets a second chance to do things over with fore knowledge of the future you will love this.
the mc is smart, practical, reliable, driven and strong. (all good things imo. I hate weak, stupid, over dramatic, or whiney mcs)
it's single character focused (so no multiple povs here which is also good).
I read a review that said the last 3 hours was cliche but honestly there is only a couple hundred of these reborn litrpgs (not to be mistaken for *isakia* not sure if I spelled that right but anyway the two are very different even though I love those to) out there and I've read them all so I don't think there is such a thing as cliche in this genre yet.
book recommendations similar to this...
reborn: apocalypse (my favorite)
towers of heaven
player reached the top
restart
monarch: a prince out of time
:-) your welcome

time travel lit!

first I received a free code for the book to do an honest review! so let's get to it...

I love Jakob tanners work and Steve Campbell bringing it to life. they work very well together.

we have a couple of similar books to this one. Mc gets chosen, goes back to save what will be lost, we find out things that happen as book progresses.

this one was a bit different lit style as they don't necessarily gain levels but skills do, the people gain ranks almost cultivation style which does happen with mana.

one thing I always love is a hp system as it puts life on edge a bit when you see them hurt.

the big one for this is as far as I know there are no healers... just items to help with that so fighting the enemies and dungeon gates has a bit more of a threat to them then our usual lit books.

some things I had trouble with at first get explained later in the book so that was a bonus but I'm sure can throw some people off. I won't go into details as spoilers but I will day stick with it! I do really enjoy this book.

my one biggest gripe was dual wielding swords. I can get over it as they have a strength Stat and agility making it seems more possible as how unwieldy that would be... but again fantasy book I can let it slide.

all in all good read/listen and can't wait to hear 2nd one.

no harem but love interests and funny characters a plenty.

no second chance needed

couldn't put this book down. flushed out magic system Regression novel using knowledge of future to save the world can't recommend jacob Tanner enough

Solid story

I really enjoyed this story. It did a great job of telling a direct regressor story and covering the first period of the MC’s story. The big question will be how the story develops as the current timeline departs from the original one. Looking forward to the next entry.

fantastic!

Great story and narration!

After taking part in humanitie's last stand our intrepid hero gets sent back in time to try to make things right! Dungeons have come to the land and humans must band together or face extinction!

Steve really brings the characters to life - wonderful narration!

I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to find out what happens next!!!
