Publisher's summary

The event is almost over.

Before Raven lies a new ball of questions that he cannot unravel alone. His acquaintance with Niyara makes it clear that the universe is not only a boundless bunch of galaxies but an entire system of thousands of servers connected by a network of teleports, inhabited by many different civilizations.

Raven is aware that he is far from undergoing one such trip himself. Instead, he decided to focus on new techniques, old friends, and tasks that still weigh heavily on his shoulders.

Trying to complete one such task that he had received from Arrey, he finds himself involved in a conflict that puts him against an old nemesis and a cult. This time, their plan extends to the Krutan Kingdom.

In the fight for the truth, Raven will, whether he likes it or not, learn many dangerous secrets.

I knew It

I knew this book could not end with him doing almost everything hes nowhere near we haven't really confirmed that aliens I don't know is no ending

Good kisten

I can not wait for the next audible to come out; keep up the good work

Good book

Compelling story with dynamic storytelling and thrilling plot that keeps evolving the over all universe!

Finally starting to become interesting

I noted in my earlier reviews of this series that the translation seems very stiff. The slang and sayings seem to be brought straight across instead of replacing them with an equivalent slang or saying. This is still an issue, but either it's getting better or I'm getting used to it. Book 1 was pretty good, book 2 was okay, and books 3 through 6 were an effort to finish. If they weren't on Audible plus, I would have never finished this series. For me, it's too much, "here is how I think an MMORPG would work in the future followed but a lot of the MC patting himself on the back for being so focused and an awesome gamer with a snippet of story or character development. There are times I fell asleep listening to the story and had no urge to rewind and figure out where I left off which isn't good. With book 7 & 8, the author introduces a "larger multiverse" concept to the game with some alien shenanigans being pulled somewhere in the multiverse. I'm also not losing focus as much due to poorly written and uninteresting content, so book 7 and 8 seem to be an improvement. I'm not sure if a good editor is helping, improved translation, improved writing, or if I'm just getting used to it, but the story is improving. My journey with this story would end here until books 9 and 10 are moved to Audible plus, but they have an 85% off sale which makes the last two books under $6 combined, so I'll pick those up just to see if the story continues improving. Summary: book 1 & 2 3.5-stars, books 3-6 2.5-stars and a big MEH, books 7 & 8 3.5-stars or 4-stars.

consistency and keeping me interested

Nothing to dislike the author did a amazing job and the story is getting better and better as I go.

Flip Flop Much

so in my last review I complained about a lack of research. the main character's father casually having beers after his heart surgery, the main character thinking nothing of it. in this book the main character tracks his father down at a bar and gets angry with him because alcohol is a huge No-No after a heart surgery. 😔😔😔
in the past the main character has talked about all the psychology classes he took for his negotiator job in "the military " (where he received the medal of honor) and how he's decently educated. then in this book he plays the I'm not that smart I'm a high school drop out card.

idk like I've said before. good for free books. the books after this one are not free...soooo probably won't listen to them.

All over

The book had too many broken areas where the story did not flow.
Unlike the previous books which were very fluent in the transition as to locations and quests, this one felt jerky in a lot of places

If ADHD wrote a book

Constantly moving from one thing to the next with out actually finishing anything. Its still a pretty fun book but its insanely tiring.
Constant buts, and interruptions that leads them on a goose chase that never gets solved unless the writer plans to rush through it all at once which has happened here and there. Still a fun read but brace yourself.
