Born Different

A Monster Evolution LitRPG

De: V. Nator

Narrado por: Tess Irondale

Deep within the caverns of a secluded dungeon, a spider with impossible intelligence evolves far beyond the laws of nature, in this fantasy adventure.

Hatched from an egg along with their many brethren, a singular arachnid is driven by a survival instinct to hunt and feed. Unlike their siblings, they remain cautious and observant, aware of the dangers that lurk in the dungeon they call home. They watch as larger and more powerful beasts prey on other reckless, foolish spiders, developing a sense of self-preservation and a cunning intelligence they alone seem to possess.

Now identifying as Click, the spider has matured, discovering they are capable of an array of amazing abilities . . . of both body and mind. They can spin and launch webs, not only to catch prey but to sense the vibrations of those who stray onto their silken strands. Influencing the colony with their hunting strategies, Click can command other spiders to do their bidding, forging an army capable of attacking—and killing—even the most dangerous of the dungeon's predators.

But the monsters roaming the dungeon are not Click's most dangerous enemies. An Alpha Hunter Spider rivals Click for dominance over their brethren, spreading chaos throughout the colony. And a group of beings Click has never encountered before raid the dungeon, disturbing the natural order. They wield objects and conjure incredible energy in their quest to acquire strange treasures, slaughtering all in their path.

These invaders are called "humans," and Click must lead the spiders in a merciless war against them in order to defend their home and ensure the very survival of their colony . . .

a surprisingly good start

It's a rather pleasant story from mostly the perspective of a dungeon spider and some of the adventurers.

A nice light read about dungeon Monsters point of view

This is a nice light read From the dungeon, monsters point of view Great potential for a good series and a great Cast with the main character and the possibility of interaction between the monsters and the humans in the next book

Well worth listening

This book handles a spider gaining human level intelligence very well, it is also well paced and I feel as though if it were made longer it would only be watered down this book was written to be enjoyed in a sprint not a marathon and accomplishes that spectacularly. I hope to see more from this author and this to be continued as a series as I have been left wanting more.

A pretty cute story

Cute story with novel idea. Suffers from the litrpg standard problems of forcing the narrator to read boring reparative notifications and a focus on stat numbers that don't influence the story at all.

point of view

I like it & a creative point of view. hope to see more in this series.

invaders

An interesting take on monster evolution in a litrpg setting. Narration was done well. Only gripe on the story is length.

A different side of this genre

I like perspective of the monster and it thinks. It does make it interesting how Click reacts to situations. The dungeon itself feels like something fun to raid.
Now, I don’t play a lot of RPGs because I’m not a fan of numbers. So there’s a lot in here and I do feel the pacing gets bogged down by all the descriptions of every ability and names. But that’s how RPG elements work so I cannot complain.
All I can say so far, I haven’t found the LitRPG for me yet. But this isn’t a bad one especially utilizing a different perspective.
