Kill or Die, Book 1

De: Alex Toxic, Monty Cantsin - translator

Narrado por: Peter Verbena

At fourteen I was crowned champion of the VR Gladiator Games. By eighteen I was unloading junk at a warehouse without a penny to my name. Girls used to chase me. Now they wrinkle their noses in disgust. Life has given me a chance to make a comeback. But in this game, it's either triumph or perish!

Contains mature themes.

Amazing

A great book that has a actual smart MC. Can't wait for the next one. Hoping all the books are made into audible books. The talk about rape is by bad guys, which are bad people. Hating a book for it's bad guys is ridiculous.

A lot of r*pe in this story

Honestly this would've been so good if the author just toned down the r*pe and made the women actual characters. The Mc is 19 and I get it but his brain is always thinking about the wrong stuff at the wrong time. If you're just looking for something to listen to as wish fulfillment this is ok.

A great book for boys

The book is tailored to young boys, all about girls and playing etc. etc, etc.

The female characters have no personality

Every female character seems to have the same template of using their bodies to get ahead, which is fine for a few since it does happen and adds variance to personalities, but every single one is excessive and makes them one dimensional. They then all magically like the main character for no reason. The other annoying thing is how much the story flip flops the main character’s personality. The story starts off claiming the main character is smart and mature, but shortly into the story you find out he is just like an impulsive teen thinking and acting with sex in mind. He is given key information about his situation and been told to perform(incentives were included as well), but still he didn’t act to change anything, with most of his actions only coming when a girl is involved and that is after him mentioning at the start of the story to not trust girls.

Not worth listening to unless you have nothing else to do. Trust me I listened to the end and I can tell you the first book wraps up with nothing being accomplished. I was so bored that despite the story stopping in the middle of an event(Authors attempt at a cliff hanger, I think), I felt no desire to find out how things end and I can confidently say I have no idea what the author was hoping to accomplish in the first book.
