Tallrock

A Fantasy LitRPG Adventure (Farming Livia, Book 1)

By: Xander Boyce

Narrated by: Andrea Parsneau

An untapped frontier. Reaping and sowing. Redemption through growth.

Matt is running from a life that he no longer wants, and he’s found a solution. By logging in to the newest game, Livia, he gains chances that he can’t get anywhere else. Matt chooses to cut out a new life for himself on the edge of civilization, by venturing to the frontier town of Tallrock. As soon as he gains his class, the newly minted Cycle Mage has one goal: farming.

Now known in-game as Kastigan, he gains a starting bonus parcel of virgin land that he will need to convert to farmland from the ground up. Kastigan needs to decide what to grow, what animals to raise, and who to hire; all while dealing with a Legion Commander who hates him for no apparent reason, surviving in the wild land where monsters roam freely, and uncovering lost relics from a forgotten time.

If he succeeds, he will create a new home for himself. If he fails, he will lose not only his farm, but all the workers, crops, and beasts that he has spent every last penny to acquire.

The exact kind of book I like

I didn't really like Xander's Red Mage series but I thought I'd give this one a shot since I love Andrea Parsneau's narration. I am so glad that I did because I loved this book! LitRPG is my favorite genre and the laid back nature of this book was really welcoming. The main character is definitely worth rooting for and I was always excited to learn more about the game. It had just the right amount of stats and stat increases, I'm one of the people is really interested in that stuff. I just want more books in this series because the ride was just so much fun! Plus Parsneau does a fantastic job as always!

seriously needs more story out of game.

Great book. I look forward to future books in this series. I like the farming. it's a nice getaway from combat heavy books.

one thing that seriously needs more story is the main character's out of game life because right now, he's seems like a terrible person. his story is sad story, yes, but come on.

Really good

I really liked this book can't wait for the second one. It is very well written and it has a good story as always Andrea Parsneau knocked it out of the park. This is the first book I have listened to by Xander Boyce but can't wait for more.

Can't wait for more!

Very good 4x story. There didn't seemed to be anything contrived as his struggle was quite real.

Good book

This book scratched an itch I didn't know I had... only complaint is I have to wait to find out what happens next!
