Chalgathi: An Apocalypse LitRPG

Elysium's Multiverse, Book 1

By: Ranyhin1

Narrated by: Jay Aaseng

When Earth gets integrated into the vast expanse of a new multiverse, one young man is game to survive—it's in his blood—in this apocalyptic adventure.

Everyone becomes prey when Earth is swallowed up and transmuted to a bestial landscape, the first stage of induction into Elysium's multiverse and a new galaxy in the making. In the blink of any eye, the bloodthirsty creatures of Riven Thane's worst nightmares are unleashed as he; his sister, Allie; and his friend Jose scramble amid the carnage to live another hour.

But on this nothing of a planet, Riven is more special than he knows. He's among a select few with a singular bloodline, and the Elysium system has its eye on Riven in particular. He's already proven his unbeatable will to survive. Now, untapped powers can be his should he succeed at what the multiverse has in store for him.

World be damned, let the games begin: challenging trials of stamina, labyrinthine mazes, and mind-bending puzzles requiring sharp wit and quick thinking. Each consecutive win will bring Riven nearer to an unimaginable undertaking . . . a personalized tutorial in the dungeons of hell itself. And it's just the beginning—Riven is about to unlock the secrets of his past and learn more about his purpose and the dark arts than he ever imagined.

Whatever unholy chaos awaits him back home, he's ready. Because as close to death as he may be, Riven has never felt more alive.

The first volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series—with more than 900,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Great narration and intro to what appears to be an immersive world.

Narration was very good. There’s a lot of world building going on that is really intriguing. Battle sequences are a bit long for my personal taste, but still well done.

Quite enjoyable

I quite enjoyed it. Similar to others of this style but, well written, intelligent characters, limited stats reviews.

diffrent in a good way

this is top tier like He Who Fights With Monsters or TBATE, however is better then all the reguritated repeats out there. This is diffrent the magic system and etc... its long and its worth the credit.

Worth a listen.

Interesting world with a good story. Written by an author who's okay with words & backed by passable narration. I'm on book 3 & still listening.

A great new story

I enjoyed the overall story greatly as it does have some tropes but not ones I care about. The MC is a bit confusing at times. But, as you come to know him and hear his thought process a few times he makes sense.

It seems to be a slow burn on the world building and a hit on the system side too. But you gain plenty of info as the MC does so it’s introduced well. Overall information wasn’t something the author beat us to death with.

Narration was good, only complaints on that end are minor. Some characters sounded exactly the same as others. I do think the narration was overall very good and told the story well.

My only real complaint is the pacing of the story. I feel like we lose momentum several times for not real reason. If those areas had been broken up a little I think it could be a huge help.
