Resumen del Editor

There is no weapon more powerful than the [Psychokinetic] mind.

Astrid, a mischievous noble teen, long dreamed of exploring the ancient cities preserved beneath the waves, left behind from a time before the ocean swallowed the world. She's been training all her life to become a magic swordsman capable of doing just that.

But when an ancient monster long thought dead assaults humanity's last bastion–a floating ship-city–she awakens her System early.

Only, she's not a warrior as expected. She's forced to walk the path of a [Psychokinetic] Mage.

With Spawn-infested oceans, pirates looking to plunder, and mysterious monsters that lurk within Bubbled-Cites at the bottom of the ocean, Safety is anything but guaranteed.

She’ll learn levitation, object throwing, eyeball pulling, and more, all the way to the apex of psychic powers.

But, what happens when she discovers that her world was a lot larger than she–and the rest of humanity, once thought?

Don't miss the start of this action-packed and often hilarious LitRPG Apocalypse series about a young survivor with a craving for adventure and fighting. Perfect for fans of Azarinth Healer and Eight.

About the series: Astrid wasn't expecting to awaken as a mage class, but that won't stop her from having fun. In fact, she'll no longer need to resort to laborious activities, including, but not limited to; picking up stuff, carrying stuff, or even throwing stuff. Everything can be done with her mind!

The pacing feels really off

seems like the author wanted to get right into the meat of the story with the minimum amount of explanation or any depth. the storys pretty good, but I struggled to get through the book

Good fun, annoyingly abrupt ending.

Great book, excellent narration. Wonderful character and world development. The ending nearly ruined the whole book with its abruptness. If it had a better written and more conclusive ending, it would get 4 stars for story.

The pauses ruined it

The story is actually very entertaining. It’s the pauses in narration that drag you out of the story and make it difficult to enjoy the book.

Love it

Delightful and I loved how fast and action packed this book was. Sometimes a normal pace, other times wild and action packed, never slow.

Pauses.... so many pauses.

This book is extremely jarring. I am halfway through it and there is one thing that absolutely kills the momentum of this book.

The pauses, there are so many unnatural pauses that hang for a good 3 seconds and then resume that you can't tell where one chapter starts and other ends. The narrator will pause halfway through a sentence and wait so long that you think the chapter ended, then they resume like nothing happened and it gives you mental whiplash.

"The orc was lifted into the air," (3 second pause) "and then was flung across the room." A few sentences later: "she could see the rage in the orc eyes (3 second pause) filled with burning hate.

It drives me right up the wall! Who edited this?!?

A whole Lotta meh.

I can't tell what I dislike more the story or the narrator. the story's pace is lacking, the story feels flat and one dimensional. The main protagonist is a brat with theemotional range of a tea spoon. the narrator has no range what so ever it makes it quite difficult to keep track of who's doing what and where. no difference in voices. overall a pass for me.

Fun read and mystery

While I'll agree the audio narrating was a bit bad with the pauses, that's not the narrator or authors fault.

As for the story, it can be abrupt with the MC being very decisive at time and doing things. On a whole its enjoyable. Thay stat screen with upper and main, mid class also is confusing in the start as it wasnt explained when she read her status. Maybe in book format it makes more sense.


With her able to control matter, my main wonder is if shes going to learn to turn water into air or matter. What if she gets so strong she can turn the flooded ocean back into dirt or something denser in matter than water to compact it. Like make all the water into a huge moutian of mithril. Surely the water to mithril ratio would make all the oceans compact matter into a mithril mountain or mountain chain.

Imagine her so powerful she can go to the shore of a mountain and turn say, 5 miles of water to stone or iron. Then just constantly converts that spot over and over for a year or two. Bet she could fill in the land and lower the ocean level dramatically. By putting it on the mountain out of the water, she wouldn't have to worry about water displacement.

Fun pacing

If you are into progression fantasy, and dont like series with a slow burn strength increase, than i believe you’ll like this book. I definitely think it picks up more and more the further you get into it.

Fine

The audio and production quality are what save this book.

There are parts of the story that defy belief. An example from the beginning of the book: The hospital is supposed to be a safety fallback position, it's got a reinforced door, the windows are not reinforced. I agree with other reviews about the scenes feeling a little forced at times.

The psionic powers are cool

The story kicks off fast with a momentum that quickens by the end of the book. I like the power of the mind aspect. Many of the powers were unexpected and really intriguing. I'll definitely get the next book.

The audiobook has weird pauses like they had multiple audio takes and didn't cut them together well. On top of that, the narrator is good at a few voices but I couldn't tell the characters apart by the end of the book and swore she changed her style for one or two. After listening to many litrpg books, this is a first for me.

So it wasn't the best. But I recommend it.
