Lillith of Endings: An Epic Portal Fantasy

Otherworldly Anarchist, Book 1

De: Dreamer's Riot

Narrado por: Rachel Leblang

No gods, no kings, no masters; that was Annie's mantra—until she woke up as someone else, somewhere else, a child in a completely new realm.

The strangest thing about Annie's new reality isn't that she's now in the body of a seven-year-old child, the beloved Lillith, feared dead by her family after a particularly nasty bout of pneumonia. It's that she's constantly having to conceal her adult intellect, which is not only advanced but otherworldly.

Sure, being a young woman and a grad student in twenty-first-century America had its challenges, but this life as Lillith presents even tougher obstacles. She must tread carefully to conceal her vast knowledge of biology, math, physics, and . . . being an adult. Because who'd expect a child to understand the complexities of this world, let alone an entirely different one? Certainly not the unassuming family young Lillith was born into.

In this new world she must claim as her own, she's expected to obey her parents, worship a god, and respect a monarchy. But with the memories, experiences, and convictions of both Annie and Lillith combined, she knows she can't—won't—abide by any of it. Until she learns mages play an important role in this society, and her fate as Lillith is suddenly a bit more appealing . . .

Now, teaching herself everything she can about mages—spellcasters and this world's rulers—Lillith has big plans, the kind that could change this realm for the better. But her scheming isn't without risk. As she grows older, she'll need to make crucial decisions about who to enlist to help her, who she can trust, and what she can accomplish with her self-taught magic.

Her plan is bold, brash, and possibly impossible. But Lillith is willing to try, danger be damned.

The first volume of this isekai adventure series—with almost a million views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Author has it out for anyone with authority or at least the MC does.

Story isn’t bad just a bit too black and white for my liking. You’re either decent or borderline evil.

Brilliant story that doesn't pull punches

This is a great story, well voice acted. Every victory feels triumphant, every loss feel tragic, every second of action feels impactful. The protagonist is smart and likeable, and the plot is compelling.

A great story with a radical twist on classic fantasy.

Are you tired of all the cops and cop appreciators in the progression fantasy genre? Do you really enjoy it when horrible people are murdered in cold blood? Do you want to talk to someone who doesn’t use ‘mutual aid’ as a synonym for ‘charity’? If so, you came to the right place. Great characters, great story, and pure anarchist fan-service the whole way through.

mc has some odd political views but good stoey

I mean she is an anarchist so the hints at her past life show some odd ideas but she is in an even more messed up world now that does seem to need to be burned down and scrubbed clean so, let's do this!

narrator needs more feeling and more emotion

The book was fantastic. love the fight against the authority, but the narrator failed to bring about any kind of emotion from the main character in all of the fights. Even though the main character is a very calculating person, it doesn't mean that she doesn't feel emotions and suspense in the moment and the performance was lacking in any kind of suspenseful feeling from the narrator.

unique magic competition

The story has a intricate and unique magic system and i loved that. it was a lot more gory than i expected but that was a plus for me. looking forward to reading the next one and learning more about the background of the MC

Wow!

So I stumbled across this book by chance and to my elation, it was lots of fun. There are also some seriously cringe worthy aspects of this book but I found it interesting and well thought out.

Awesome Premise. Not flushed out enough IMO.

I really enjoyed the premise of this story, especially the magic system—it’s creative and has a lot of potential. The idea of the world pulled me in right away. That said, the execution left me wanting more.

The characters felt a little flat. There isn’t much growth or internal struggle, which is usually what makes Isekai stories so engaging. The villains are evil for the sake of being evil, with no real attempt to humanize them. While I enjoy the cathartic moments of seeing terrible people get what they deserve, I couldn’t help but feel that the lack of moral weight made the world less believable. Would someone from our modern world really kill—even an evil person—without any hesitation or conflict?

There are also moments where the story makes assumptions instead of building motivation. For example, when the gang leader is manipulated by the protagonist’s brother, it just “works” without any build-up or explanation of why the gang leader would think that way. It felt too abrupt and underdeveloped. Similarly, the worldbuilding around gender and power seemed inconsistent—if women can use magic, why aren’t more of them resisting, especially since one of the most powerful early characters is a woman? The logic just doesn’t feel fully fleshed out.

The magic system itself is fascinating, but again, I wanted more detail. If magic circles are supposed to be precious and rare, it seemed too convenient that she just stumbled on them in a bookshop without explanation.

Overall, I love the premise, the concept, and the magic system. But the story feels rushed and underdeveloped, with characters and worldbuilding that don’t quite feel real. I think with more chapters, more buildup, and deeper character development, this could be an amazing series. As it is, I’d call it an enjoyable but frustrating listen—great ideas, but the world falls a little flat.

An extremist power fantasy

For the most part this book is exactly what it’s trying to be and does it well. The setting and culture are so extremely oppressive and downcast that it allows the let’s just off them all and burn down the whole thing mentality seem reasonable and almost necessary. If you’re looking for it you’ll find plenty of the pitfalls of any extreme opinion like hypocrisy and double standards, but there are also a few moments of genuine introspection and reflection. All the bad guys are irredeemably evil and there is so little of the grey area that makes humanity so complex. All together a good book if you’re looking for the power fantasy or some interesting perspective on the extremism mindset. Might be a bit iffy if you just want a casual read.

a refreshing perspective

I'm not sure this book will be everybody's cup of tea but it is one of my new favorites. It is political. honestly all writing is but this one did it on purpose. it did not hold back, and it was nice to see anarchists properly displayed
