Sylver Seeker 5

A LitRPG Adventure

De: Kennit Kenway

Narrado por: Garrett Michael Brown

No one leaves a negotiation happy.

But wounded pride aside, Sylver was overjoyed with how everything turned out.

He left with a talented clairvoyant, an army of highly skilled dark elves, a talking golden crowbar, the finger of the greatest lich to ever exist, and all it cost him was a fraction of a fraction of a century.

Sadly Eira didn’t simply stop and wait for his return, Lola became a king, Bruno concocted abominations, Faust drowned his sorrows in powders and elixirs, and the ever-looming threat of High-Elves and Krists, loomed more than ever.

There was also the problem of a wandering [Hero], Sophia’s disappearance, rumours of a Sun demon, and further minor issues that were on Sylver’s seemingly endless to-do list.

But the important thing was, he had a way to find Edmund, and all the cultivators, country sized mountains, ancient dragons, and swamp witches in the world weren’t going to be enough to stop him.

Book 5 of this Fantasy LitRPG Series about a reincarnated necromancer growing in power and finding his way in a new world where the rules have changed vastly since he last "lived."

Fun Storey, Needs more editing

I really like the book, but the past couple all seem to have the same issues, the time skips at the beginning of the book jumps around all over the place, some things get doubled up, some chapters are in the book twice.

the story is fun, I really enjoy listening to the books and the narrator does a good job, it's just annoying when thingsll like that take away from the overall book

Did I Get Cheated

The overall story was great as usual. The main character’s harshness is often hilarious, but he’s sometimes too hypocritical or domineering.

The worst thing about this book was the end. I honestly still have no way of knowing if that was where it was supposed to end and the last chapter started repeating. If it’s bugged to repeat, then the odds that a chapter or two got left out isn’t zero. There’s also no real way to know as far as I can tell.

Another great addition

i had mixed feelings since book 1 but i continued on with the series and I'm not disappointed! I cant wait for the next installment.

Another Great

Another great book in a great series! I’ve liked all of them! On to the next!!!

This again?

Minor/Major spoilers possible.

I was really looking forward to Sylver returning to his own realm and being within his own element, however, in this book he goes to cultivator land. He knows just enough about cultivators to get himself into trouble. My favorite thing about this series is Sylver's bad@ss know it all attitude that is backed up by his extensive knowledge base. So him going to cultivator land where most of his knowledge is useless was a huge let down. Also, the book ended suddenly. It was so sudden that I thought maybe there was an issue with the recording. Unfortunately, this means the next book will take place in cultivator land once again.

It is tiring how overpowered some characters are. It is like come on, how is that allowed to be a thing within the rules of the system? I honestly hate the cultivation system and culture. Instead of mages and cultivators being on the same planet, I wish there was a cultivator planet that Syler never had to go to. Warriors using mana with a stupid honor system would have been fine. An energy source that half the population can't sense is aggravating.

I'm not sure if this happened to anyone else, but my recording had the last chapter twice. It was fixed by re-downloading the book.

This is one of my favorite series right now. Even with two books that I found aggravating, it is still better than most LitRPGs out there right now. Keep the books coming please!

Enjoyable but that last chapter...

it was a good continuation of the series but the last chapter is just the last half of the one before it repeating again and kind of ruined it because I thought I had one more chapter left just to hear it repeating instead.

Less Fun than Books 1 to 4

The first twelve or more hours I lamented that this book simply isn't fun. I even checked to make sure this was the same narrator. The first four books were full of confident and snarky zeal, like the 1975 Tom Baker Dr. Who who always mocked galaxy ending megalomaniacs. In book 5 Sylver kept running into opponents he couldn't harm and who could obliterate him. Sylver kept wanting to run from everyone and was continuously helpless and frustrated. This just isn't fun. It broke the formula that made the first four books enjoyable. In the first four books Sylver was a wise and powerful mage who came to a world who doesn't know about his magic style and has no defense against it. In book five, it's reversed.

Is book 5 well written and narrated? Yes, of course. But it lost a great part of the magic I loved. Will I continue the series? After 100+ hours of listening to this in a marathon, I don't intend to buy the next book. I don't want to listen to more like book 5. Maybe if it comes on sale or for free, but not for $11.43 or whatever a credit costs.

the last chapter repeats

I'm not sure if I got the true end of this book but I'm positive the last chapter repeated

A bit slower than the others but still good

This one contained more fluff, progressed a bit slower. It felt like either a setup for a bigger story (about the royalties and unnamed etc) or just filler, hard to tell. I still found it really well written, well edited, excellent performance by Garrett and excellent quality of all technical.

Interesting

Love the voice acting, and story has many layers to it. Love the complex characters.
