Ritualist

Completionist Chronicles, Book 1

De: Dakota Krout

Narrado por: Vikas Adam

The decision to start a new life is never an easy one, but for Joe the transition was far from figurative. Becoming a permanent addition to a game world, it doesn't take long to learn that people with his abilities are actively hunted. In fact, if the wrong people gained knowledge of what he was capable of, assassins would appear in droves.

In his pursuit of power, Joe fights alongside his team, completes quests, and delves into the mysteries of his class, which he quickly discovers can be practiced only in secret. Ultimately, his goal is to complete every mission, master every ability, and learn all of the world's secrets. All he has to do is survive long enough to make that happen.

Masterpiece

Dakota Krout, as always, delivers a phenomenal story. I thought it would be hard for him to top his Dungeon Born series, yet he managed to pull of an amazing new story. I'm fully hooked, eagerly awaiting the next in the series!

The Ritualist is one of the most interesting takes on LitRPG I've had the pleasure of hearing. He doesn't turn his main character into a "Mary Sue", making him fight for every bit of progress.

Do NOT skip this, it's definitely worth the listen. Vikas Adam delivers a strong performance, combining with Krouts great story for a delightful listen.

Hold your breath

I almost gave up on this book in the first 10 minutes due to some truly horrific attempts at cleverness. If those attempts had paid off later in the book, I might even forgive them, but it really was just the author's own little inside joke. It would be like having a well-endowed blond hairdresser character who everyone calls Dolly and who is at one point encouraged to "part on". That's about the level of cleverness we're talking about here. But it only lasts a while, so if you can get past the first couple chapters (which also include some truly distasteful representations of soldiers and veterans), you may actually enjoy the rest. It's the classic "RPG in real life" genre that seems to have emerged recently, and it's a solid addition to that area.

If only...

I can't help but compare this book to Red Rising, from the Red Rising Trilogy and that book told this story 1k times better. So to me it was a pseudo LITRPG dumbed down version of Red Rising. Took a while to get going and the "shocking" MC actions weren't all that shocking. It's a mehh kind of book.

Dakota keeps getting better

I liked the story. It's a young adult story but it's has just the right wording and action. Some things don't need to be said but implied. The story makes sense. Story doesn't drag along, character isn't overpowered at the start or overly strong or sensitive. The characters a real person. Alot time in Litrpg the authors are first time writers and make the characters to good or to bad or stretch the story out.

Amazing, I recommend it totally.

I truely loved this, divine dungeon also recommended.
It's truely story rich and u will fall in love with the series
