Continue Online Part One: Memories

De: Stephan Morse

Narrado por: Pavi Proczko

A man broken by despair and depression, Grant Legate finds himself in a once-in-a-lifetime situation after receiving an Ultimate Edition copy of Continue Online. All he wishes for is a distraction from the thoughts plaguing his waking hours. He dives in headfirst, unknowing of the AI's intentions. They offer him the chance to play as one of their own, a NPC deserving of a proper send off. What he discovers during the journey shakes Grant to his very core.

A fun start to a potentially amazing series!

I really enjoy these types of books. The whole idea of full immersion, true life games is extraordinarily intriguing and I hope to one day get to see this technology come to fruition.

Good book!

Great performance, and an original take to the litrpg genre. Recommend for fans of the niche, looking for a deeper look at past endless action

One of the best LitRPGs I've ever read!

Would you consider the audio edition of Continue Online Part One: Memories to be better than the print version?

I haven't read the print version, so I can't accurately answer this, but I definitely enjoyed the audio version.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Continue Online Part One: Memories?

can't go into too much detail without spoiling it, but I'll just ask this. In how many litmmo books does the protag have to play an NPC?

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

What's great about this book is that the characters were very well thought out. It made me think a lot about things in general. I don't personally have depression, but from many I know who do, this book seems rather accurate. And I really appreciated how this wasn't another one of those books where the character wasn't some progamer who could just figure out everything or get extremely lucky or find some major game exploit. That is my issue with 99% of the litMMO books out here. I myself am not that good at video games, but I still love them. So I was able to relate to this a lot.

Any additional comments?

If you like litMMO books, like stories about A.I., and liek stories that deal with the people in and outside of the world, this is for you. There isn't a whole ton of action packed moments, but there are a lot of very meaningful ones that help build both the worlds and outside of the game. This is the most unique and enjoyable litMMO book I have ever read. So much so that I took the time out to write this review. I barely EVER write reviews for anything.

A true study of being human

I wish I had time to praise this book the way it deserves. Grant is scary real. this is a man who shows the true nature of loss and depression. I've seen reviews for this book and the next talking about how he needs "To get over it" or he is constantly "whining". I have to wonder if anyone of them have ever experianced either crippling conditions. those who lose their loved ones in freak accident and those who suffer from depression will find grant familiar and relatable.

And this is ASIDE from the wonderful hints of exploring AI and sentience. enough so that one character aggravated me for reducing the NPCs to programs.

I was unsure of the slow burn format and twist on the usual starting for Litrpg. this is a genre Bridger for sure.

Pavi took some getting used to but mostly cuz I came from listening to kick podehl and Jeff Hays so eh. not bad once we get to Grant.

the biggest take away is that grant is human. he is a flawed and damaged character. he is HUMAN. he won't confirm to what you want just because you think him acting different would be more enjoyable. To know him and take this ride with him means accepting him and his clear but slow growth as a person, not a character archetype or trope.

I highly suggest trying this book

More Slice or life than a LITRPG

The story is not bad there is just very very very little action and no real character building like 99% of the other LITRPS
