Immortal Swordslinger

De: Dante King

Narrado por: Pavi Proczko

Ethan didn’t believe in magical swords until one transported him to a fantasy world.

A world with monsters, martial arts guilds, and elemental powers beyond imagining.

In fact, it’s almost like he died and went to heaven. If heaven contained rivals bent on killing him, elf tutors who want to bed him, and a feisty spearmaiden with something to prove.

Contains harem elements.

Pavdante Excellente

Jim Butcher, Scott Meyer, intriguing. One note: I continue to dislike how Proczko pronounces "fiyur."

Great start to a series!

This story was great! I love the development of the magic system. If you like swords, magic, and fighting you should give this book a listen.

Not a reviewer

Not one to write reviews, but I would recommend this to my friends and family.

MC is just too upright and with too much honour

I mean I am not against a person(character) being too honoured but In this book its not suitable at all and their are too many flaws with the book and the story...it lacks depth and at few points it becomes cringy(at least for me)..you can enjoy this book of you are into the sort of children stories (excluding the sex in the book). but I highly recommend not to waste your money/credit on this.

A Good Story, But Not A Great Story.

Ethan, an employee of Running Blade Security, is on his first solo mission. He is tasked with infiltrating the research project of a foreign government that is looking into ancient magic, of all things. From the moment Ethan gains entrance to a temple on the side of a mountain in the Himalayas, things begin to get strange. There is a time traveling orb, a magical sword that shoots fire, a disembodied dragon familiar and ninjas.

In the course of the battle with the ninjas, Ethan finds himself transported to another reality. Somehow, the act of traveling to the new world separates him from the sword and the familiar. In this new world, besides humans, we find it contains all kinds of beings from fantasy and lore. Ethan is soon approached by an old man who recognizes Ethan to be the augmenter he has been waiting for. The old man offers to take Ethan on as a member of his clan and teach him to become the Immortal Swordslinger, which he gives a very insufficient explanation as to what that is. Soon Ethan's motivations change from wanting to find a way to get home to wanting to learn how to grow stronger as an augmenter.

"Immortal Swordslinger" successfully mixes together Chinese cultivation fantasy and LITRPG genre elements to make what I felt should have been a great story. Unfortunately, this story is not great. It is good, but for me, something is lacking about it that keeps it from being great. It is enjoyable and worth your money. I was definitely into the story enough to get book two, which is now available, but for some reason, the story just didn't have that certain something to make me give it my highest recommendation.

Finally, this free, review copy audiobook was given to me at my request and I have voluntarily left this review

This book was incredible. So many interesting parts that had me excited and looking forward to what would happen next. Very much looking forward to the next book in the series!!! Highly recommend!!

Pretty average harem novel

I enjoy harem novels. This does nothing to stand out, however. It was pretty ordinary. Not bad, mind you, just not great. Pretty ok.

The sex scenes - even the women themselves - are largely forgettable and even unnecessary. I probably won't read the rest of the series.

I did always enjoy when Kegger the half-orge said "yeah, yeah, yeah". Instead of it sounding like a dismissive comment, it sounds like he's breaking out in song.

Off to a Great Start

The action was fast and gut clenching. A very interesting magic concept. Loved the overall characters development. The MC is easy to root for. I cannot wait for the next installment.

mixed feelings

so there is alot to like and it's a pretty fun adventure but honestly it just takes it's self way too seriously, j wish it had just embraced how cheesy it is. leaning into the camp instead of pretend this is some grand epic. it's really not it's great trashy harem also I really cant roll my eyes hard enough at the stupid terms it uses to try and sound original just stop and call it mana or ki or chakra no one cares.
