Tunnel Rat 3

A LitRPG Adventure

By: Walrus King

Narrated by: Garrett Michael Brown

Milo needed a break from fighting giant monsters, insane wizards, and the constant gang warfare of Shadowport.

The World Boss he'd accidentally woken up was dead. The annoying wizard who'd captured him was lost in the void along with his annoying little dragon, his airship stolen, and his library destroyed. That left him free to go exploring in the dark tunnels beneath the city.

He'd thought that as a were-rat he was unique, but he's heard a rumor of a small town of ratkin living beneath the city and sets out to find it.

Limburger Hollow will test him in new ways. Friendly people will welcome him to their town, and then toss him into the fighting pits, wizardly duels, and competitions between the local assassins who love to play a game called Surprise!

But Milo loves a challenge, and if he doesn't know all the rules, he'll make up some of his own.

Book 3 of this unique spin on LitRPG featuring an unusual MC you can't help but root for. Featuring plenty of humor, action, thievery, ninja abilities, a detailed world and System, science skills, magic tinkering, item invention, and more originality than you can shake a rat tail at!

Fun mix of science, magic and engineering .

Loved the story on RR and found this audiobook to be a step up from the previous two in terms of narration. Dwarves , Pirates and especially Pirate Dwarves make everything better. The beer does not hurt either :)

One of the best books on Audible

I have over 600 books on Audible and this among the top 5. You will love Larry and the twins in this amazing continuation by Walrus King. Freaking love this series!

Justice for Larry!!

overall I like this book The entire series actually, although I would like to get more story from outside of the game in the real world it seems to have some quite interesting things going on that haven't really been gone into

An uplifting fun read

Tunnel rat makes me question what’s real and what’s not with another story about Milo and the Walrus King’s engaging game world. Now I want to be the Hero of Flowerland, and I have to wait for Volime 4’s audio book.

Standalone feeling

It feels like a standalone as many characters are completely ignored in this story. 95% of the story takes place in the game world and zero progress on any plots from previous books. The author takes a step back from game mechanics, levels, and the system. I see this as a good thing as the author wasn't very good with the numbers and the game was very imbalanced. The feel of the story is different with more points of view and an effort to make a web of schemes. This both fun and not fun. Two villain's(the mage included) who are slavers is a unfortunate trend, Slavers just make me sick reading of them, thinking of all their victims and are a big minus to fantasy stories with them. If you ignore any of the numbers involved, the fights are fun. The author needs to work on their multiple people vs people fights though. All in all, it feels like an 'ok' filler used to explore some small differences in writing plot. Many new people/enemies at lose ends to pop up later. I miss the Game Engine talking to Milo in prompts the most.
