Metagamer Chronicles

Complete Collection, Books 1-3

By: Xavier P. Hunter

Narrated by: Mikael Naramore

Gary Burns thought he’d created a masterpiece. Instead, he’d created a prison for his friends - and himself.

Gary Burns just wanted to create the greatest RPG campaign of his gaming career. But a freak magical accident sucks him into the very world he created - as himself.

Surrounded by heroes who look and sound like his friends, Gary is forced to play out the story he wrote. Worthless in a fight, Gary must prove himself valuable even if it means feeding the team insider knowledge.

Because he needs to keep his friends close - and himself alive - until he can solve the puzzle he never designed: how to get everyone back home.

Metagamer Chronicles puts the RPG into LitRPG, taking the ever-growing GameLit genre back to its tabletop roots. If you miss the rattle of dice and gaming at a table with your friends, the Metagamer Chronicles are what you've been craving. Fans of Dungeons and Dragons and old TSR novels will love Metagamer Chronicles.

Fun story

Good story and performance. I feel the character sheet was read off in it's entirety too often.

this was amazing to say the least

the ending was perfect and everything that happened in-between was fantastic I hope to see more sometime

great ttrpg style story

I'm surprised this book has as few reviews as it does and I'm definitely going to try to spread it around. this book is probably one of my favorite ttrpg style stories that I found to date, and I have read quite a few.

wish there were more

if you are into heavy role playing dungeons and dragons or even just familiar with it the way i am. this book will keep you listening and entertained Naramore does very well in his performance of this title.

Fun LitRPG

This series probably don't deserve 4 stars, but between the conceit, the world design, and the characters, it was just fun to read.

The ending of this book ran long, but that actually contributed to the very end of the story, so I'm willing to forgive that. It's definitely not a 5-star experience, and it probably wouldn't get 4-stars if you're not a fairly serious LitRPG fan, but for me, it was a lot of fun.
