Voidknight Ascension, Book 1

By: James T. Callum, K.H. Sohmer

Narrated by: Luke Daniels

Sam was surfing with his cat when the world ended.

Suddenly enlisted into a battle to fend off annihilation, Sam seizes the strength of the void to survive.

In the aftermath, Sam is thrown into a new world shattered into floating islands with survivors from Earth. Training and fighting with his giant sword and apocalyptic mana alongside his magical healer cat, Sam's unusually quick to adapt to this deadly realm of monsters and magic.

With endless threats to face and countless powers to attain, Sam's journey of ascension climbing has only just begun.

But first, he'll have to forge a legend of his own.

Blending slice-of-life with epic fantasy action, cultivation, mystery, layer/tower climbing, dungeon delving, kingdom building, and intricate magic systems, this LitRPG/GameLit series is a perfect fit for listeners who enjoy exploring richly detailed worlds, complex characters, and an ever-evolving struggle for the protagonists to make a home in their new world.

Fun Listen

This was a fun listen. Sometimes it got to be a lot of info dump, but the characters were well rounded. There was only one thing that sort of bothered me. Toward the end one of the characters voices changed into another's. It pulled me out just a little, but and only happened for two lines. Overall good story, fun characters, and enjoyable. Will be getting the others in the series.

awesome work

really enjoyed it.

it was a pleasant and awesome book.

I really hope to see more in this amazing series.

awesome stuff ,love to see more.

LitRPG with promise, but choppy execution

The book has some intriguing concepts and a serviceable magic system that fits well within the Apocalypse LitRPG genre. However, the introduction felt disjointed and made it difficult to settle into the story.

The setting—with floating islands and shards of reality—didn’t quite click for me. The main character’s progression also felt inconsistent, swinging between struggling and overpowered from one moment to the next, which threw off the balance of the story.

On the positive side, the narration by Luke Daniels was solid and helped carry the experience.

nice world building

This story is great. Fun world building and a diverse group of characters. dissapoinring that the other books aren't out yet. I'll be waiting audible..

Soooo many stats overview

I am just at 20 chapter. But I swear that it starts to feel like author uses stat overview as word counter to hit minimum word count for a book or something. Having it even twice in 1 chapter is just overkill, and having one after each level up without much change is overkill too!!!
