Publisher's summary

Build. Evolve. Conquer. Welcome to the civil war....

Roark von Graf - former noble and hedge mage, current mid-level mob in a MMORPG - has his sights set on taking down the tyrannical dungeon lord. But the reigning troll despot is nearly as devious as Roark, and his followers are at a much higher level.

With forever-death on the line, civil war breaks out in the Citadel, pitting Roark’s new regime against Azibek’s horde of loyalists. To survive, Roark will have to outfox the dungeon lord, forge new, dirtier weapons and shady alliances, and above all, evolve....

But while the trolls are entrenched in their civil war, an outside threat is growing. Eyes from the IRL world are beginning to turn toward the Citadel. There’s something strange about this Roark, and they intend to find out what.

From James A. Hunter, author of the litRPG epic Viridian Gate Online, and eden Hudson, author of the Legend of the Treesinger and the Jubal Van Zandt series, comes an exciting new litRPG dungeon-core adventure you won’t want to pause!

Great job on this one

If you enjoy this genre, then this will be one of your new favorite titles. Exactly the story you want in a well executed gaming experience but from a different perspective. Nick Podehl is amazing, as always.

Overall good book, but I don’t like the hero of the story

The book is written well and the characters overall are very good. Amazing narration by nick as always. It’s just, this is one of the few times that I am rooting for the main guy to lose. He’s a prick. He somehow always wins and he’s cocky about it. He is not likable and I just can’t bring myself to get the third book.

All in.

The original story took me into a place the was not really my cup of tea, but by the end of the first book, I was hooked. Now I just want more! The performance is just superb!
Level Up Indeed.

Great, but short

The first two books could have easily been one, and that’s my only reason for giving the story 4 stars.

Very enjoyable

I truly enjoy a book I don't want to put down and this was one of them. I'm excited to see what book three is going to hold and how the characters react now that... You'll get no spoilers from me. Enjoy the listen.

Better and Better

I'm hooked. I'm a huge fan of Nick Podehl's voice work especially in this genre. The story is well written and the characters are a fantastic range of softhearted beasts to cruel assassins all loyal to a man who isn't supposed to exist in their world.

first was a little slower but this one is great

I'm really happy I stuck with the series, may have just been my headspace but the first book went a little slower for me but the second book got me hooked into the series and I want to throw out spoilers so badly but I'll only say the third book is going to be effing great.

Better than the first!

The first book in the series was okay but I didn't expect to like the second. I was just reading this as a filler until the next in my main series came out. But as it turn out, this book was actually pretty good! The other reviews are right about how the author uses fencing terms and they seem really out of place, but other than that, this book is solid! It really puts a spin on the LitRPG genre with the main character farming MMO players instead of NPCs. The dynamic between the main character and his multiple rivals is very good, and everyone plays their part. I'm excited to start the next one!

Good listen.

Very well written and narrated. No major flaws that I could hear. 1minor gripe but it's a personal dislike. mostly just getting all my words.

Even better than the first!

I cannot get enough of Kaz and Zyra! The combat is great, the narration is flawless, and the plot has enough twist to make the whole story a fun ride. Great book 5 stars!
