Apex: A Fantasy LitRPG Adventure

The Exlian Syndrome Series, Book 3

De: Seth Ring

Narrado por: Pavi Proczko

From bestselling LitRPG author Seth Ring—creator of the Titan and Battle Mage Farmer series—comes Apex, the third book in the epic new series of alien contact, fast-paced military action, and thrilling adventure.

Life comes at you fast, and no one knows that better than Mark Fields. In less than two years, he’s gone from a lowly dishwasher to an empowered soldier, gained new powers and friends, and survived the deadly Exlian aliens in the wilderness.

And now, he’s a prisoner.

Framed for murder and thrown into the deadly Tomb, forgotten and alone—no master, no team, no friends save the enigmatic cat Mime—Mark can only rely on himself … and the strange voice that whispers inside him.

For it’s kill or be killed in the Tomb, and Mark must face both who he truly is and who—or what—he’s willing to become in order to survive.

Another banger

Easily my favorite new series. Top notch pf and a great narrator. Really looking forward to more.

Enjoyed It

I enjoyed the continuation of the story and the character development. Can’t wait to see what happens next. My only complaint is the books are too short. I prefer at least a 15 hour book and think anything below that should be increased in length. Hopefully the author will read this and take it to heart. Other than that keep up the great work.

Great addition

I wish it was longer, great addition to the serious. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next book.

good stuff

It's still pretty good, though I was tempted to go down to 4 stars, I'll still continue to read the series (someday, when more books are out. but he already has preorders open for the next couple... so that's cool.). however, I'm starting to doubt the long term plot direction after that cliche plot device was randomly thrown at us out of nowhere. I mean it's plausible in this world and yada yada, but still, come on.

Great Continuation

This book had a really different feel. I was unsure about it but after listening, I really enjoyed the book of personal growth and am excited to listen to the next one.

A Powerful Third Act in an Evolving Saga

A Powerful Third Act in an Evolving Saga

I was pleasantly surprised by how naturally Apex ushers the series into its third act. Each book in the series blends seamlessly into the next, yet the tone, setting, and even the supporting cast shift dramatically throughout, giving each entry its own distinct feel while still building on what came before. Seth Ring continues to demonstrate a remarkable ability to develop new characters quickly and meaningfully, even within short spans of page time.

The evolution of Mark, the main character, has been especially satisfying to follow. From the wide-eyed naivete of Advent to the more grounded and complex version of himself in Apex, his arc feels both believable and earned. The maturity and depth that emerge in this installment add weight to the story and reinforce the emotional impact of the challenges he faces.

If I have one complaint, it is that the book ended, I didn’t want to put it down, and I’m already eager for the fourth. Apex delivers both character and plot progression in ways that deepen the series while raising anticipation for what’s still to come.

Lovely

It is a great continuation of the series and sets up well for more! Can’t wait to see where it goes next
