Narrado por: Tee Quillin

Second life, second chance—this time, nothing will stop him.

Thorian Steelblade stood on the edge of victory, ready to carve his family's name into history. But treachery struck from within, and in his final act of defiance, he unleashed a devastating self-destruction spell.

Yet death did not claim him.

Instead, Thorian awakens in an unfamiliar land, stripped of his power and reborn as a lowly Kobold. Now a hunted monster, he must navigate a world where humans and beasts battle for dominance.

But Thorian is no ordinary Kobold.

Armed with knowledge from a past life and a powerful system that allows him to evolve, he will claw his way back to power and crush those who stand in his way.

With millions of views on Royal Road, Apocalypse Rebirth is a must-listen LitRPG adventure following one man's quest for vengeance, power, and redemption after being reincarnated as a lowly monster and forced to rise from the ashes to forge a new destiny.

Great

WARNING AUTHOR MIXED UP GNOLLS AND KOLBODS just heads up Great op character that’s not brain dead.

overall good time killer.

Overall good filler if nothing else new to listen to. Biggest gripe I had was the constant need to tell me that the characters were "bantering". That doesn't need to be stated. It's like me saying I've left a review at the end of a review.

This is a review.

Generic....was this written by AI?

Boring generic Litrpg. It almost felt like it was written by AI on what a generic Litrpg. Not a single character or story points felt original.

The uniqueness of the story

I have to say the story is quite unique compared to every other version of itself you usually don't get these kinds of monster reincarnation stories with regression.... so 10 out of 10 for uniqueness And it's not a bad story at all it's actually pretty good I have to give it credit for that The only issues I have are when he finally gets his village set up because he did everything prior it's like instantly attacked from the get-go okay I have no problem with that it's supposed to be the apocalypse.... problem is a portal literally opens up right after and he has to start fighting again and even he himself says why did it open so closely.... And then it's literally non-stop monster battle for what feels like the next hour it just feels a little too convenient I wish we got a little bit more growth before something like this happened... I was also a little worried that this was going to go full murder hobo on the humans that would have been disappointing but thankfully in the beginning of the series we don't really get too much of it although it does come close.... who knows how the story is going to progress though..


then the main character has knowledge of the future and he uses it very very well even going as far as finding the village stone before the cataclysm even starts but when he starts fighting basic enemies he forgets basic principles about those enemies it just feels weird.... it's just to make it seem like he has to struggle a little which doesn't make any sense he shouldn't have to
struggle That's the whole point of the series
mind you to the point where he can literally identify enemies in mass every time he sees them but then forgets basic attacks that these enemies use....


I also wish the story would be a little bit more clear in regards to if he's going to fight humans or not I mean literally his troops consistently keep saying are we going to do the human quest are we going to do the human quest and he just keeps putting it off but he already mused that it would be a problem if he just started going on a genocidal path I wish he would just be more clear


I'm sorry I have to write this incredibly low he goes on a quest to get dire wolves and then no less than an hour later somehow a giant army of humans shows up supposedly three days after the apocalypse started and steam rolls his village 🫤 his incredibly powerful village he's got all of the knowledge and abilities and somehow the humans can somehow just overcome the defenses in a matter of an hour.... this is the dumbest way to create conflict for a main character it doesn't make any conceivable sense why thousands of humans would somehow travel out into the wilderness to attack a village...
led by an incredibly powerful opponent who can pretty much one shot the main character but chooses not to for reasons.... again I just wish this was written differently... it's way too soon for something like this to happen if it happened maybe a few weeks into the apocalypse then that's different but for it to happen in the same week a day after he literally creates his first house it just seems way too soon

also I think I know what the writers intention is.... I'm going to take a wild guess and say that they're going to have another person from the future just like the main character who was also transport it back in time especially because this person let's slip The name of The place where the main character has built his main town she specifically calls it by the old name that's a name only the main character knows from the first time line.... I just wish this would have better added in later for to be added in so soon and this early on And for her to somehow outclass him doesn't make much sense he has all the benefit of being in a better body with a better system he even says as much with better resources
