The Wylds Online

A LitRPG Adventure (Runescribe, Books 1-3)

De: H.G. Chambers

Narrado por: H.G. Chambers

No class. No gear. No clue. Just 21 hours of epic LitRPG adventure.

Ben thought The Wylds would be a fun escape. Instead, he's dropped into a deadly fantasy world where dying hurts, magic is real, and his only hope for survival is…calligraphy?

Now he’s being hunted by Fate—the most powerful guild in the realm—for an object he barely understands. One that could destroy The Wylds and kill everyone inside it.

Ben is smart, but he's no hero—just an anxious underdog in way over his head. But with a quill in hand, a few unlikely allies, and a knack for not dying when he really should, he just might make it past level one.

Experience over 21 hours of action, humor, and clever progression in this immersive audiobook—narrated by the author.

About this series:
The Wylds Online is a story-driven LitRPG set in a dangerous fantasy world where pain is real, the system is against him, and nothing plays fair. Expect clever progression, a weak-to-strong arc, gamer humor, and boss fights that punish hesitation.

Perfect for fans of He Who Fights with Monsters, Awaken Online, and The Land.

Good start

The story was fun. It lacks some of the high stakes because the game is VR and not real. It does a good job creating some tension with player interaction though. The characters are entertaining. The game evolves which creates a fresh feel book to book. The author did a good job with his narration. It felt like he committed to the performance.

Great Listen

Good story great boo/series to listen to while your doing things around the house or on a long drive.

Very enjoyable!

I read these books first, and thought it might be fun to listen to the audio book. I don’t normally care a lot for audio books, but this was great! I admit part of the draw was hearing the author himself read it. He has a good voice for this-or perhaps I should say voices! Chambers did a very good job with all the different character voices. It was a lot of fun, bringing the story even more alive. The storyline is good, with good characters, and exciting action scenes. I look forward to the next book coming out!

My favorite new series!

I love so much about this new series I'm not quite sure where to begin. The story is amazing and goes from good, to holy cow I can't put this down pretty quick. I feel like this brought out some of those moments from playing the most memorable video games of my life. Nostalgia everywhere. I felt that rush of gaining a tiny bit of extra benefit from a skill that would start to build and the feeling both more powerful but also stretched in cool new ways.

Beyond that, the author does a great job at bring some amazing characters to life, both with their writing and his performance while reading. I love how different each character feels as he reads from their point of view.

I cannot wait to see how the series continues. it brings back that feeling of extreme excitement when I was waiting for the next Harry Potter book and such experiences don't come along that often, and when I find another series in the future that really excites me I'm sure I'll remember being this excited about these books.

Thank you Mr. Chamber's! I'm really looking forward to what's to come!

Good book hope to hear book 4

This was a good book really like how it unfolds. The style of story was intriguing good listen.

Fascinating!

Truly thrilling action, amazing world building, friendship, humor and heart. Captivating in every way. Can't wait for the next book in this series!!!

very surprised with this book

was pleasantly surprised with this book. with a author being the narrator really scared the hell out of me but speed it up to 1.8 speed was a perfectly read book. only complaint I have is I would like to see the books be longer.

Great story and journey.

I liked the main characters progression, I really hope that there's another 3 books released soon. if I had one complaint, it's that I think the 3 books could have been one book from the beginning. But I call this a great read/listen as it has a great gamelit story with an appropriate amount of relationship (mushy stuff) that everyone can still read and doesn't exclude any audience in the process. they keep it PG on all of that and it's great.

I loved this audiobook - I can’t recommend it too highly!

Review of “The Wylds Online - Runescribe books 1-3” by H G Chambers

This story begins when Ben, an unsuccessful call center salesman of printer protection plans, is invited by his best friend Will to participate with him in the limited entry Beta Test of a new, cutting edge, truly immersive online role playing game (RPG), The Wylds Online. Will, who is successful and whose life generally seems to be on track, is elated by this opportunity. Ben, however, who rarely finds that things go his way, is much more dubious, especially having heard a troubling story about the fate of an earlier player. Despite his concerns, Ben is convinced by Will to participate in the Beta.

While Will’s inception into the RPG proceeds normally - he chooses his Class of Cleric - hapless Ben is denied the opportunity to choose a Class, a critical starting element of the RPG. Ben finds himself classless, unsure of how he will proceed in the game with such an atypical status. He is granted something else unexpected (which I will not give away) which, while not compensating for his lack of a Class, encourages him to forge ahead and make the best of his situation.

I will not relate any more details of the story because I do not want to deprive the listeners of the pleasure of experiencing the tale for themselves. However, I do want to share some of the aspects that made this audiobook such a fantastic experience. First of all, the characters (not just Ben and Will but all of the characters) are well developed, highly engaging, and relatable. The storyline is exceptionally creative and immersive and it gripped my attention from start to finish. There are unexpected twists and turns as the story develops and, as I listened, I couldn’t wait to see what would happen next. Overall it was a superb listening experience and I will look forward to the next audiobook by the author!

The audiobook is narrated by the author himself and he performs admirably. I always appreciate author narrated audiobooks because they know just how to lend emphasis at critical junctures.

I want to point out that you do not have to be a gamer to love this listen. I do not play RPGs but still truly appreciated this audiobook (if audiobooks are not your thing, I’m sure this title would be equally awesome as a book).

I am always excited when I find a new favorite author and, I am extremely happy to say, that I have found one here! Get this audiobook/book now - you don’t want to miss this experience!

Definitely #1 in LitRPG

Hilarious and well written adventure. Awesome voice acting. Characters are so well written you will miss them when it's over. Can't wait for book 4.
