Resumen del Editor

What's the worst thing that can happen on a hiking holiday? Getting lost? Blisters? Falling out with your partner? Try being abducted by aliens and crash landing on a strange planet that wants you dead.

When avid gamer Brandon awakes surrounded by endless snow and countless monsters, he knows his survival odds look slim at best. Not that he's planning to go down without a fight. Being a self-confessed nerd doesn't mean he's going to roll over and die. Brandon's determined to get himself home and protect whoever he finds upon the way. That includes a couple of stunning alien women who need his help as much as he needs theirs.

Enhanced with a strength as foreign to him as The Fractured World itself, it's up to Brandon to rise to the occasion and show this primitive planet who's boss. His women are counting on him, and Brandon doesn't intend to let them down.

Contains mature themes.

It's ok

It's a good thing I wasn't dead set on continuing this series, because there don't seem to be any more works in the series - at least not on Amazon.

The PC is an ordinary nerdy guy who ends up abducted from earth and marooned on an alien world where technology doesn't work and he, a hot princess and a tsundere bodyguard must work together for survival. The world is made of different areas with sharp delineations between vastly different climates. There are a number of mysteries just touched on in this book, that presumably would have been expanded on in future works in the series.

It's not bad. If future books in the series dropped in my lap, I wouldn't object to listening to them - but I wasn't going to go out of my way to seek them out.

meh

i don't know if it was the narration the 3 syllable name of the female MC or the avid use of the term my mate but it started grinding and i had to fast forward to the ending i wouldn't recommend this book

average

This one is pretty uneven some parts and the overall plot are good. However there are a ton of hard eye roll moments. The MC fluxes between normal guy/cheesy white knight/TSTL romance MC. The side chars are a bit over the top as well. Pretty much all of the MCs internal dialog is cringe or obviously "stupid" for the sake of drama.

The VA makes the most simple things sound so douchey!

Honestly an OK and by that u mean completely average for the genre book. the VA though should consider a different line of work or stick specifically to just narration. him trying to be dramatic and whatever else he was doing with his voice just sounded cringe. it wasn't this bad when reading, just hearing him was....🤢🤮

Not my thing.

While this has a good story behind it and the performance was great, it's just a bit over the top for me. It felt a bit pornographic for my taste.

I had fun

This book is what the cover suggests: smutty goodness. That's why I'm here and I'm guessing that's why you're here. Enjoy the escape for a couple of hours.

New and interesting world type

Guy from earth gets abducted and after he escapes from the spaceship, his lifeboat/pod crash lands on this "fractured world" in a frozen land area.
He rescues a gorgeous blue alien princess and her hot dragonette bodyguard from some slavers.
After having sexy time with the princess he gets super strength which helps them fight off the monsters as they try to get out of the frozen area so that they can survive. It seems that nothing that is technologically advanced, like electronics and guns work on this planet.
This is a great harem LitRPG book which I hope is a series.

Definitely looking forward to hearing the next one

So I had been hoping this would come to Audible, and was happy to see it here. I loved how the MC started off questioning the power he was given. I hope to learn more about the girls in the books to come.

Engaging story

Fantasy alien girls harem mature situations
The first in a five-part book series, it sometimes borders on space opera, but for all that, it's an engaging story. There's world-building in different environments, several puzzles to solve, and the game-changing fact that become the mate to these alluring female aliens conveys powers and abilities to Brandon, the story's MC.

Soren Gray narrated the story. His pronunciations were clear and he did well with the characters of the first book, including the three lead females. Not knowing of his other work, the harem grows, and more, in books 3 and 4, they build a sizable settlement, and I'm not sure he could clearly identify some many different supporting characters. I've recently been listening to joint male and female narrations and have really liked them. Some narrators are banding together and like radio shows of old, including sound effects and the like. However, since most of these type of stories are by indie authors, the expense of audio books take a while to recoup the expenses, so such large productions may continue to be the exception rather than a new trend.

The first book sets up the situation while leaving many unanswered questions to be resolved. It's very easy to listen to and the time passed quickly as the story progressed. Enjoyed.

Starts Slow, gets good.

I can definitely say I didn't like it was first but it God so much better. Sad no more of the books are audio books.
