Publisher's Summary

Marked for Death

Valor thought he would have a chance to start over back on Earth. A chance to savor all the advantages that leveling up in a world full of futuristic technology and ancient magic has given him. 

But fate has other plans.

A tactical strike is initiated, a neighborhood obliterated. Val fears his enemies have discovered his terrible secret, and have marked him for death on both worlds. 

Even after escaping back to the realm of Endless, hidden foes attack without mercy. The death of Overlord Tytus has sent shock waves through all of Jordia as countless Highlords make their bid for the throne. 

Now Val finds himself facing off against treacherous nobles, cold-blooded assassins, and mad tyrants bent on conquest. 

If Val and his friends are to have any hope of surviving, he must dare the unthinkable. 

He must declare himself a contender, face off against an entire world's worth of opponents, and claim the throne for himself!

Join Val once more as he discovers hidden classes, embraces forbidden arts, and takes the first steps along a path of power that will change the face of Jordia (and Earth) forever!

I am very disappointed in this story.

How many times can someone be on the verge of death and just miraculously survive against impossible odds. The main character in the story does it over and over and over. Basically to the point of ridiculousness. It got to the point where I just kept wanting to say “get on with it” we know he’s going to survive. There comes a point where this miraculous survival just becomes comedy. Plus the main character has gotten so good in his primary ability that the author has to constantly think of new ways to disable his primary ability in order to basically try to kill the main character. Plus how many times can you threaten to kill his girlfriend just to bring him in to a new death situation. The other end of this book was just ridiculous and does not inspire me to want to read the next book at all. It’s kind of sad to see such a great writer feel compelled to constantly ramp up the action and the danger to the point where it’s ridiculous in the story.

Def in my top 3 LitRPG favorite series

I do not give out 5 star ratings often but I felt this book and series overall deserves it. The genre is LitRPG but the author has masterfully combined other genres of fantasy, sci-fi, mystery and thriller to develop a story that you did not see coming when starting this series. Val Hunter the protagonist started the series as a crippled war vet and is now blazing his way across the planet Jordia and crushing all mercenaries, assassins, mages, inquisitors and highlords that get in his way. Val and his friends have discovered that the game Endless and the planet Jordia are just as real as earth but in an alternate universe. With the bad guys having taken over earth from their foothold on Jordia it is up to Val and his companions to conquer this alien world and smash all in their way as they fight not only to get earth back but to rule over earth and their new home Jordia!

Great Store Line

I have enjoyed the series and cannot wait to hear the last two books in the series. I downloaded this on a whim and I do not regret it. This has been a wild ride. Note to Author: "Get the last two books for Audible ASAP".

good story, ready for the next!

have to say this was a great addition to the storyline, the main is kind of OP but it's still a fun follow can't wait for the next one.

Good But...

OK I'm gonna break this down pretty quick hunter valor is NOT a hardened killer this very much breaks a key element of the story, that the author tries to put as a bass factor for Valor. Secondlie they talk far too much in and around combat about shit that doesn't matter Which really hurts How immersive the story is.

Another great book for the series

The books are getting better and longer, which I like a lot. every step of the way I was glued to this book even to point I was late to work one day.
the voice actors really make the characters comes to life and bring the book to a hole new level.

the story was really well written. My only complaint is Julia she really gets at me, She us my least favourite character. other than that small thing everything is perfect.

oblivion's peril

well the first book was good the second book left me a little bit confused but I am so pleased that I stuck with the third book and I really do like the fact that it was as long as what it was gives you something to get your teeth stuck into if I have one complaint it is the annoying voice of the guy who sounds like Barry Scott of the Cillit Bang advert but apart from that I have no complaints and really do recommend this to anybody who wants a good listen

Great Return To Glory

The reylturn of the and Voices were Great to hear again.
The Twists and Turns throughout the book was Gripping and I had to say I didnt wanna stop reading.

I would Recommend this book to all (And I Have )
The author knows how to keep us Listeners on the end of our seat.
My Rating 5/5 ☆☆☆☆☆
