Hack, Slash & Burn

Hack, Slash & Burn, Book 1

The orc apocalypse has arrived.

In the small village of Berring, Calder runs the Broken Mug tavern. He was a gifted swordsman and would have been a war hero if only his side had won. His injured leg tells him his days of fighting are over.

When a dark portal opens in his village’s main square and orcs stream through it, slaughtering his neighbors and setting everything on fire, it brings with it a second chance.

A soldier of light appears and grants Calder a weapon stone so he can help fight against the forces of darkness.

His leg is healed. His body pulses with superhuman strength. And he’ll do anything to protect his people.

Hack, Slash & Burn is a medieval LitRPG fantasy series with portals to other worlds, different classes, stats, levels, and spells.

An amazing first novel

I enjoyed this book so much, love the narration of the writing story plots with the struggle. Please give this novel a try you won’t regret it.

Tons of action

Good story, I liked Calder’s sidekicks *ahem* party members. Final fight is somewhat unsatisfying, but there can’t be a book 2 if he should logically be killed by someone 5x his level

10/10

loved it can't wait for book 2 I think the doom sound track should be playing at the final battle

Good but predictable

Good story with strong characters and little light on world building however narration was good which kept my interest. I’ll buy the next book which I think is a good recommendation.

solid story, interesting, no fall off of interest throughout.

cool, classic, ever intriguing. will want to hear again, and continue this ride further. really good story, excellent premise
