Lillith of Endings: An Epic Portal Fantasy

Otherworldly Anarchist, Book 1

De: Dreamer's Riot

Narrado por: Rachel Leblang

No gods, no kings, no masters; that was Annie's mantra—until she woke up as someone else, somewhere else, a child in a completely new realm.

The strangest thing about Annie's new reality isn't that she's now in the body of a seven-year-old child, the beloved Lillith, feared dead by her family after a particularly nasty bout of pneumonia. It's that she's constantly having to conceal her adult intellect, which is not only advanced but otherworldly.

Sure, being a young woman and a grad student in twenty-first-century America had its challenges, but this life as Lillith presents even tougher obstacles. She must tread carefully to conceal her vast knowledge of biology, math, physics, and . . . being an adult. Because who'd expect a child to understand the complexities of this world, let alone an entirely different one? Certainly not the unassuming family young Lillith was born into.

In this new world she must claim as her own, she's expected to obey her parents, worship a god, and respect a monarchy. But with the memories, experiences, and convictions of both Annie and Lillith combined, she knows she can't—won't—abide by any of it. Until she learns mages play an important role in this society, and her fate as Lillith is suddenly a bit more appealing . . .

Now, teaching herself everything she can about mages—spellcasters and this world's rulers—Lillith has big plans, the kind that could change this realm for the better. But her scheming isn't without risk. As she grows older, she'll need to make crucial decisions about who to enlist to help her, who she can trust, and what she can accomplish with her self-taught magic.

Her plan is bold, brash, and possibly impossible. But Lillith is willing to try, danger be damned.

The first volume of this isekai adventure series—with almost a million views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

a refreshing perspective

I'm not sure this book will be everybody's cup of tea but it is one of my new favorites. It is political. honestly all writing is but this one did it on purpose. it did not hold back, and it was nice to see anarchists properly displayed

This Shouldn’t Work—But Somehow, It Does

I like it—yet I’m often annoyed by it… and still, I like it? Huh. Am I a masochist?

The majority of the theme is heavily influenced by gender politics—not modern-day stuff (that would be a hard no, and I’d be asking for a refund. Nothing against it personally, I just don’t want to deal with divisive topics in my mental escape that audiobooks and novels offer me)—but more of a historical women’s rights angle. Think male dominance and control over women, just with a magical twist thrown in. Normally, I hate these kinds of stories.

Well—hate might be a bit strong. It’s more like... deep, persistent irritation. I mean, if this is supposed to be a world full of magic, and magic users are practically unstoppable compared to your average “big strong man,” then why is there still such a hierarchy and power dynamic over women? Strength is meaningless when magic exists—so logically, that should bring equality, right? At least, that’s how I see it. Hence, my usual frustration when stories try to insert real-world gender dynamics into fantasy settings. It just doesn’t compute for me.

That being said… this story actually compensates for that. The world-building makes it so that your magical strength and influence are tied to either your bloodline or successfully entering a magical circle. You can only enter it once, and if you leave too soon, you’re weak forever. So power remains locked with those who already have it, and suddenly, the gender stuff does make sense.

I still find the theme annoying and it’s not something I typically want in my stories—but in this book, it works. So I’ve gotta applaud the author for managing to keep me engaged with a topic that would usually send me running for the refund button. Full stars for that. Although, I’m still on the fence about picking up the sequel when it comes out.

I love this

it's really cool to see how the author incorporates general philosophies of anarchy into the protagonists thinking, as well as the in depth insight into character motivations for the other characters.

Wow!

So I stumbled across this book by chance and to my elation, it was lots of fun. There are also some seriously cringe worthy aspects of this book but I found it interesting and well thought out.

Awesome But...

I loved this book, and I will absolutely be listening to the next. However, the world is not black and white and this book road the line of saying it is. Power does not corrupt absolutely it reveals absolutely, and that means that there are plenty of halfway decent guards, nobles and mages. I really hope to see her master turn out to be a true believer in GOOD nobles being the best form of government (or anything believable that has him disagree with the mc but not be a piece of shit).

Great but brutal

I enjoyed the book a lot but it got a bit to sinister at times lots of trigger warnings especially for domestic violence and implied SA. The hate from the MC comes up a lot and could get very repetitive for listeners. While Rachel Leblang has some vocal quirks overall she does a great job with narration. I'll be picking up the next book

This one sparks joy

One of my favorite protagonists. If you liked Only Villains Do That, you'll probably love this book. The villain seems to have been meticulously crafted to inpire the maximum amount of hatred from me. Looking forward to book 2.

A refeshing MC & a cathartic listen

This story is incredible. The MC knows what she's about, and she doesn't beat around the bush at all. She see's problems and acts to find solutions for them, and managing the risks and repercussions in a satisfyingly realistic way.

Also, the narrator is freaking incredible. She put exactly the right spins of emotion into the dialogue, especially where the MC is concerned, and it was fantastic.

The ending was sooo worth the build up, too. Super cathartic, given what the MC had to go through to get there.

No Bs its good

It’s worth it.
Good story , good mc and good narration. And a cliff hanger ending. Real person aprove👍🏿

Really interesting not for me

First off this was very well written! Lilith was interesting and compelling and the magic system is well developed and again interesting. However this series isn’t really for me it takes the “eat the rich” thing a bit too far for my tastes the villains were too mustache twirly evil for the sake of being evil. While no base of power is built without some sort of exploitation and suffering I think it can’t be misstated that there always people who try to do the right thing and power doesn’t always corrupt absolutely. That being said I highly recommend everyone at least try it.
