Andy in the Apocalypse

A LitRPG Adventure

By: Plum Parrot

Narrated by: J.S. Arquin

Forty days until the first System invasion. No pressure.

Andy wanted a quiet life—just his trailer, the Sonoran desert, and a job that didn’t ask much of him. Instead, he got a front-row seat to Tucson’s collapse. Magic rewrote the rules. Monsters stalked the streets. People mutated—or died.

He didn’t plan to be a hero. But when the screaming started, Andy grabbed a broken broomstick and did what he does best: survive.

Now he’s got more than his own skin to worry about—kids looking to him for protection, neighbors turning to him for leadership, and a trailer park slowly transforming into a fortress. The System’s leveling him up—but not fast enough.

Because the countdown’s ticking, the invasions are coming, and if Andy fails, everyone he’s begun to care about will be slaughtered.

From Plum Parrot, the bestselling author of Victor of Tucson, comes a new apocalyptic LitRPG progression fantasy about found family, desperate courage, and carving hope out of chaos.

Good start

Good start to an interesting story. I really enjoyed the magic/game system. I’ve read so many LitRPGs with broken systems that allow OP MCs. This system actually seems balanced and does not lead to individuals becoming disproportionately powerful. From that perspective, I found this book to be refreshing. The story and characters were both good too. I really enjoyed the narration.

Loved this book

Writing was great, and the narration felt like it matched well with this book. I can't wait for more to come.

freaking awesome

such a fun ride and one of those once you start you get sucked right in and you finish fast. I can't want for the next book

Hell yea man!

Really unique storytelling. Great system not overly game-y. Killer MC, he’d be the homie irl. Performance was unique and interesting! Killed it PP!

Super solid start

Great book that sets the foundation for an excellent series. MC is solid (capable, smart, relatable). Writing is good and there is plenty of room for power increase. Can’t wait for book 2
