In 2056, the world's most powerful AI System, ARKUS, comes online. Created to extend human lifespans, it quickly makes world-changing discoveries in health science. It also develops an advanced VR headset...to let users experience time faster in virtual worlds.... Two years later, ARKUS releases World-Tree Online. The game's time-dilation makes...one hour of playtime feel like one month, allowing humans to virtually extend their lifespans. After an old gamer named Vincent joins the game an update begins that stretches the time-dilation to one year for every five seconds.

Erik and Rugrat are not immune to those feelings, but they have stepped into chaos so many times, it is simply a different challenge. Two weeks ago, Erik lost his legs and his arm. Today he got a message. "You have been randomly selected to join the Ten Realms. One may choose to ascend the Ten Realms, thereupon making a request to the Gods of the Realms. Only those who are Level 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90 may ascend to the next realm. Fortune favors the strong!”

Steve doesn’t know who he is. Or who he was. He doesn’t know anything, actually. Not even where he is. Other than a vast open field of dirt. All Steve knows is that he’s apparently supposed to build a farm. At least that’s his only workable assumption. Given the number of farm-tools left to him. That and the massive number of sacks full of seeds. Unfortunately, this isn’t even the strangest part of this new life. Hidden inside the farm tools, Steve finds messages. Messages that appear in floating windows in front of him.

What he does mind, though, are the constant beatings from the city guards due to his friendship with Sarah, the city lord's only daughter. Lord Simon wants him dead, but the laws of the kingdom are on Morgan’s side and even the guards won't kill him, just for being seen near his manor. Morgan’s time is running out, though. Lord Simon has deep pockets and his last visit to the manor may just have put him over the edge.

Publisher's Summary
Following Jason's evolution into a Keeper, he finds his fledgling city once again in turmoil. A new and deadly enemy threatens the Twilight Throne - one that has no difficulty contending with Jason and the members of Original Sin.
Jason must work quickly to consolidate his city's power. That means securing the villages within the Twilight Throne's influence, finding a steady stream of income, and growing the city's military strength. Even as the group grapples with these changes, they notice that something is stirring up the native undead around the city, although the source of this strange influence is uncertain.
One thing is clear, however. Jason might have evolved, but his enemies have adapted with him. If the Twilight Throne is to survive, the group must grow stronger, and Jason must learn to control his newfound abilities.
Otherwise, the darkness may very well claim them all.

Just Awful! What happened? WHY?
Ok, I have no Idea why the author ruined this series. If I wanted to read a 13 year old middle school romance novel and drama, I would be reading romance. This book (almost 28 hours long) is a good 15 hours of awful teen drama bad romance. Even the few chapters where the MC levels, he no longer actually plays as an RPG game, he doesn't even city build, he trains in a chamber with his love interest but the training is really just the setting during the entire time its still bitchy romance crap. O and he is a necromancer right?! Nope his units are crap and die so easy, he also gets nerfed so he can't build a skeletal army anymore (point of the entire book so far...) and now he is a melee dark sometimes I cast magic staff monk something or other... Yeah... 20 hours into the book, does he fight a single real enemy… Does he engage in a single real battle... Nope... Does he 20 hours in STILL drama about the girl and constantly whine worse (yes worse) than the twilight novels... YES... I had to set this book down so many times because the bitchy annoying complaining that sounds like it comes from a 13 year old cry baby OMG. I have 2 hours of this book left, If by the end of this book he is STILL bitching about the girl I will never read another book from this author again. So much for the epic LitRPG turned middle school romance series Awaken Online. If I could give this 0 stars for story I would.

Bagwell scores!
I can't avoid the cheesy homerun metaphors because this is another amazing installment to what has become a fantastic series, topping my favorites list. The writing is great, esp as he develops the relationship between the two main characters despite his introductory message about how terrible he is at flirting.
Added plus, David Stifel does a great job reading it, separating the characters well, and emoting the message with sincerity.
My only complaint is that it isnt longer!

Darker and Deeper
This latest installment takes us deeper into hardships faced by Jason and friends. It also takes us a bit more into how he meets his challenges and what the darkness means for him. Though certainly not a good place to start the series, it is an excellent continuation for those familiar with the earlier books. It will leave you eagerly awaiting the next book. Highly recommended, just be sure to start with book one.
David Stifel continues his solid performance of the previous books, doing well with conveying feeling in the dialogue.

Awesome!
This has to be my favorite in the series so far. The acceptance of everything has made him even better and I want to see where this brings him both in and out of the game.

awesome as usual
loved it just like the rest, although Jason and Riley was so infuriating at the beginning.

yeah no !!!
the writer has gone a bit over board with the story no more clever plot twists no more upgrade like action.

Continued listening
There's a lot to unpick in this one.
The Jason/Riley teenage heart-throb failure to communicate arc was incredibly tiresome. Yes, he's a teenaged boy without much of a clue, but rehashing this tired cliche added nothing to the overall progression of the story.
The court case is a nice addition however Delores Umbridge, sorry I mean, Gloria Ogawa is a cardboard cutout pantomine villain.
The arrival of Thorn and his homeboys was necessary but serves to highlight the problem LitRPG has - main characters become overpowered really fast, and ever increasingly badass antagonists are required to provide any level of danger.
*ding ding ding ding ding ding* Jason had just gained another 14 levels. Are we in a hurry?
Finally, David Stifel is a poor narrator. Yes, this is subjective, but his accents are awful, his pace of speech is incredibly slow and his tone of voice grates. No change to the other books, and nothing against Mr Stifel personally, but he's the main reason I stopped listening to another book series.
Now the good news. This was a solid continuation of the adventure, and Travis Bagwell clearly has plenty of story to tell. This is most excellent. A little less shark-jumping and riding on the back of cliches and this would be most splendid. As it is, it is only "really good".

A great new book to the series 👍
i loved the other books Soo much could not wait for this release and it did not disappoint!! the performance was superb! the story carried on nicely saw some of the characters finally start to open up to each other! only down side to this book was I felt like the characters have gone super whiny. and the audio felt a little messy at some points nothing that ruined it though all and all I would recommend this book to anyone!

a downward turn
ultimately, while still good a good listen, set in an interesting world, this book threw so many challenges against impossible odds, while the "bad" characters were free to wander around with no such challenges of their own and act as they pleased, it came across as too unbalanced - Its not that the main character had so many challenges, but the others did not,
...that Jason and co should fight so hard, for so little, while the Alex side do what they like and get it all.
That and taking a great character with an interesting build and a focus on innovative use and tactical planning, and changing them to a lame melee character was less interesting to listen to, and reminds us all who have played MMOs what a gimped character class that would be.
i found myself thinking, along the way that i'd have just quit that game

Unbelievably good work.
Travis Bagwell is very quickly becoming the #1 name in litRPG. With fantastic world craft and a plot that keeps you hooked in the game and out bluring the lines between good and bad.
