Legion

A Space-Opera LitRPG

By: Jaeger Mitchells

Narrated by: Kyle Westmaas

Between Heaven and Hell, we are Legion.

Life isn’t what it used to be in Earth’s megacities. Finally, having enough of eating crumbs and trying to stay alive, I decided to take hold of my destiny and join one of the space-faring legions. Getting accepted into a legion turned out to be a hell of a lot harder than I thought - until I met the Devil himself.

Signing a contract and offering my soul in exchange for a chance at escaping Earth and a promise of power, I left it all behind only to find myself in a far worse situation among the sadistic officers aboard the Steel Legion.

After a gruesome turn, a chance for revenge comes along and gives me the opportunity to take care of the corrupted group of officers and their followers and ending their evil ways. However, the awakened monstrosity that I’ve become is an extremely important chess piece in this epic game between Heaven, Hell, and Earth’s forces. They will stop at nothing to retake me and the Legion, dead or alive.

Warning: Legion is an adult-oriented sci-fi space opera litRPG containing gore, foul language, and other disturbing content. It doesn't contain any explicit sexual scenes, though.

amazing 1st book

great world building and movment in storyline the character development is alittle weak but the story and world really help cover that small flaw. not big on gods and godesses but again great pace that drags the reader i. really looking foward to book 2

the story is all over the place

so much happened so randomly. it's almost like a regurgitation of the author's power fantasy in audio form

A Fun Dark Scifi Tale with Gamelit Elements

Legion is a self-contained dark sci-fi tale with gamelit and harem elements. The main character is trying to be a good man and leader while fighting for freedom and independence from the corrupt forces of Earth/Humanity, Heaven and Hell after he makes a literal deal with the Devil. Plenty of action (gets a bit gory in places) and what may be commentary by analogy on politics, business and religion as an individual fights for free will, free thought and decent treatment for himself and those who want it. Good for fans of space-opera sci-fi and LitRPG/Gamelit as long as you can stand (or are a fan of) occasional gore and harem scenes.

Disclaimer: I was given a free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Mixed bag, but it’s a good long book.

Is he an alcoholic alpha male or a “nice guy” who has never touched alcohol? Does he like killing and oppression or does he hate violence and people having power over others? You’ll never know because it changes.

In the end I think he is the (not literally) trench coat and fedora wearing “nice guy” who says “whatever” every 5 minutes who has adhd.
Kinda like the book steel world but the MC is cringe worthy AF. I would love to see more of this world with angels and demons and gods.

Narration is ok, he has small issues here or there like: so and so is screeching in a high pitched voice, and the narration is still deep and calm. Or someone says “you’re souly mistaken” instead of “your sorely mistaken”.

Ambitious

The book was neat and had some really cool ideas. Just felt a bit overstuffed from getting new things without developing the old things. The characters in the story are a big one dimensional as well. It was an awesome story though with interesting progression ideas and narration was great.
