The Once King

Forever Fantasy Online, Book 3

De: Rachel Aaron, Travis Bach

Narrado por: Josh Hurley

Leylia’s secret could unite them all or lead them to an eternity of undeath.

After the loss of Bastion, everyone who’s not a zombie has holed up in FFO’s sole remaining safe haven: the lowbie town of Windy Lake. But the undead armies never rest, and it’s only a matter of time before the Once King’s forces come to crush what’s left of life in this world.

But Tina, James, and the rest of the players are facing a crisis of their own. After so long in this world, their human bodies are dying on the other side. If they don’t find a way home soon, they may have nothing to go back to.

With time running out in two worlds, Tina and James face a horrible choice: do they spend their final days looking for a way to get back to their old bodies, or join the NPCs to fight for their new ones? But just when things look impossible, James learns a secret that might change everything. Only one catch: to pull it off, they’re going to have to fight one raid boss no one, not even Tina, has ever beaten.

Great ending to a trilogy

Overall great story with very relatable characters. I could easily imagine myself in numerous roles based on how the characters handle situations and conflicts.

Get this action packed conclusion!

Oh, My, Gosh!!! I was totally unprepared for how much I really, really loved the conclusion to Forever Fantasy Online, especially Josh Hurley's contribution. I had really panned his over-acting in the last book, and I totally expected I'd just have to suck it up for the sake of the rest of the storyline... and surprisingly, I didn't have to! Josh was excellent this time around. His performance was Much more refined and nuanced, making The Once King a pleasure to listen to!
I was also tickled pink to discover that the race of cats, known in the game as "Jubatus", is in part, the actual scientific name for Cheetahs (Acinonyx Jubatus). How cool is that?!??
Rachel Aaron, and Travis Bach really outdid themselves with the way this book brings the FFO series to its conclusion. So much so in fact, that I don't mind if we can't play FFO again... and no, I'm not telling you what happens (Dream On! LOL)! Get the Series, 'cause my lips are sealed, locked, and I've thrown away the key! 🤫 🤐

Great ending to a nice series

Loved the series. Loved the fact that the ending didn't leave loose ends. A great ending to a nice series

A glorious conclusion!

I have to say this was the best in the series. This left it all cleared and closed at the end. Unlike many other stories this one gave an explanation about the survivors that most don't go into and that was great. Thanks for the adventure.

A wonderful ending

This one had me holding my breath through the end. I am happy I stuck with it. I started this series because I was a fan of Rachel's other works. But with the first book being so dark, it took me awhile to complete the whole series. I'm glad I did though. This series is so dark because it's REAL. What I mean by that is that the emotions are believable, as are the actions. It doesn't pull punches because war is never beautiful. Peace, however is. Thank you. I loved the series, and glad I stuck through the gruesome to get to the heart.

Better than the Last

A terriffic wrap up to a trilogy that has left me wanting more from this wonderful world that was built.

an amazing end for the series

There were so many good points in this book.
i really loved it. if you liked world of warcraft you will like this as well:)

Epilogue Fail

I just finished listening to this whole series and I got to say I throughly enjoyed it, my only complaint is the seemingly phoned in Epilogue.

"Don't think about it Morty." -Rick Sanchez

You would think that the ending would prompt alot of question with that conclusion. (Seriously the Government.) But as a wise character once said "Don't think about it!" Overall I thoroughly enjoyed the story, pacing and narrative. Josh Hurley ability to narrate between characters is pretty awesome. FFO is kinda like a love letter to Log Horizon and to a lesser extent *Groan* SAO.

Exciting story that you cannot wait till the end.

In almost every occasion characters take actions which yiiu dont expect and they go through situations you dont expect them to succeed. I couldnt wait till the end.
