Resumen del Editor

Gary Burns thought he’d created a masterpiece. Instead, he’d created a prison for his friends - and himself.

Gary Burns just wanted to create the greatest RPG campaign of his gaming career. But a freak magical accident sucks him into the very world he created - as himself.

Surrounded by heroes who look and sound like his friends, Gary is forced to play out the story he wrote. Worthless in a fight, Gary must prove himself valuable even if it means feeding the team insider knowledge.

Because he needs to keep his friends close - and himself alive - until he can solve the puzzle he never designed: how to get everyone back home.

Metagamer Chronicles puts the RPG into LitRPG, taking the ever-growing GameLit genre back to its tabletop roots. If you miss the rattle of dice and gaming at a table with your friends, the Metagamer Chronicles are what you've been craving. Fans of Dungeons and Dragons and old TSR novels will love Metagamer Chronicles.

this was amazing to say the least

the ending was perfect and everything that happened in-between was fantastic I hope to see more sometime

wish there were more

if you are into heavy role playing dungeons and dragons or even just familiar with it the way i am. this book will keep you listening and entertained Naramore does very well in his performance of this title.

Fun LitRPG

This series probably don't deserve 4 stars, but between the conceit, the world design, and the characters, it was just fun to read.

The ending of this book ran long, but that actually contributed to the very end of the story, so I'm willing to forgive that. It's definitely not a 5-star experience, and it probably wouldn't get 4-stars if you're not a fairly serious LitRPG fan, but for me, it was a lot of fun.

loved the work amazing story

this was great and feel it was worth 5 stats all around. I look forward to more of this authors works.

Epic

Very well written series. Zieto was my favorite, lived 60. years in world. Only complaint would be kept displaying Gary's stats very very often.

Great but with drawbacks

The amount of times the character sheet got read in its entirety was very annoying. But great world and story

A bold epic!

I hope that this author has more! I loved every second. Who would have thought litRpg would be so skillful and brilliant!
Some of the issues brought up by others are petty, and evidence of lacking Game Mastering experience. People have flaws, we can act on what we know but might not.
Players can be coarse, profane, perverse, and derail the adventure.
This isn't a power fantasy. Converting real world people to match game statistics and rules can give you some very disappointing results. How many of you have ability scores above 14? The bell curve is both accurate and cruel...
Me?
Well at the age of 17 I was running 4 minute miles, swimming laps across the public area of whiskey town lake, an artist and a marksman. Oh, I rarely ever got sick. I took martial arts classes ; taekwondo, and kenpo.
In terms of might, I have worked on roofing jobs were I regularly had to lift and carry 80 lbs bundles of shingles. Often two at a time.
I have tested and have a 142 I.q. I enjoy electrical engineering. I am a c-d student though when it comes to advanced subjects; calculus, chemistry, digital logic, and physics.
So, I would have some very good ability scores.

One of the best books I’ve ever read! Listen and learn!

Listen and learn what it is to be a true metagamer and live in another world. It may not be what you envision, but it sure gives a look into what it would be like to be transported into another realm. To the author, Xavier P Hunter, thank you for sharing your vision.

the greatest love story ever told

I said what I said! listen to the whole book in you'll understand. I guess they want me to put spoilers?

little too campy, but the ending was sweet
