The Duty

Play to Live, Book 3

De: D. Rus

Narrado por: Michael Goldstrom

The perma players' new reality gains depth and color. The virtual world has seen its first birth - and its first death. The invisible umbilical cord connecting AlterWorld to Earth grows thinner, and even the Fallen One cannot prevent the looming catastrophe. Could Max have ignored the Russian girl who'd just escaped slavery in a virtual China? Could he have turned a deaf ear to her pleas as the desperate fugitive clutched at straws on hearing her native tongue? All this triggers a full-blown confrontation, sending armies of thousands into battle in the heart of the Frontier, burning kilotons of mana, melting desert sands and hacking through impervious mithril armor. The two nations' furious war cries obscure the sky as the gods shudder at humans' desperate cruelty.

Epic quest interrupted with occasional politics

Overall this was another good entry in the series. I however felt the non relevant to the story, real world moments to take me out of the fantasy. Still worth a listen though!

SPOILER ALERT

If you could sum up The Duty in three words, what would they be?

HE KILLED TALLY!

Any additional comments?

I was very upset about the direction he took at the end of this book. Also... STOP with the inner greedy pig... it's not funny anymore.

Better and better

Where does The Duty rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I thought out of the three Alterworld books, this was one of the better ones.

What did you like best about this story?

World building and but kicking.

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

I was happy with everything in the book. New skills, world building, cool bad guys, and epic story.

Any additional comments?

Alterworld is one of the series where you can't just read one book. Its a journey that made me buy all of t hem in one go. I think everyone should enjoy both the kindle version and the audio book versions.

max is a real deuche

he should bbq his inner pig. the thing is making him think that he is hot s^#t. he forgets himself by being so disrespectful to his god/friend, and when dealing with other gods. hes lucky he hasn't been turned into a giant turd.

If you like GameLit or LitRPG then get this series

book 3 of 8 and this series is worth owning. D Rus is a Russian author that brought gamelit or RPGlitor LitRPG, or however you want to refer to it, to us in the states. Thanks dude you rock for that.

What's the point !!!

Wrote a review OVER 10 years ago & now IT"S GONE !!!!!!!!!!
This is NOT the 1st, 2nd or 50th review, that's NOW GONE !!!!!!!!!!

Loved the book but the constant random...

Loved the book but the constant random reversion to ancient wars, comparative to the story's time, seemed like a repeating non sequitur which interrupted the story.

The Digital World is Growing!

Book three continues to grow our hero's digital universe and offers some compelling new obstacles such as slavery and religion that fit in well with the established narrative. If you've read book 1 and 2, then picking this one up is a no brainer. The series continues to be fantastic!

i couldn't stop reading this book

Magic, and fantasy are staples of the play to live novels with a touch of SciFi and laughter this one stay true to that,but a new element of life is revealed in the type of ending that this auther uses so well

amazing

I love the whole series! it is absolutely amazing and audible needs to get the other books in the series
