Publisher's summary

A new life on another world!  

Morgan used to be a pretty chill dude, until he got hit by a car, died, and then got sent to another world by a god-not-god. A world where the only way to survive was to level and grow strong enough to survive all the monsters that wanted to eat your face. If he was being completely honest with himself, Morgan quite liked this world, even with all the monsters and the lack of electricity. Sure, there were people that were technically gods, running around and interfering with his life, but who didn't have problems?  

Things weren't all that bad; Morgan found friends, who included bad-ass elven twins, an orc, and a descendant of a Roman General from an alternate version of Earth, and together with them he founded a Guild, got some followers, and basically became a ruler.  

So yeah, not all too bad - except that he now had several towns and villages of people looking to him for guidance and protection. And to make matters worse, a new Goblin King had risen and united the tribes in the mountains. Now they had a goblin horde on the way, and Morgan and his friends had to figure out a way to protect them all. Should be easy, right?

More stupidity

Okay so this guy again puts himself in situations where only luck can get him out yet again. How can his story go downhill so fast, I really don't get it. Stupid jokes and mistakes that could be seen from a mile away where the MC just happens to survive what a suprise. Instead of better more strategic planning it's just by luck and bumbling they make it through things. I don't see how this is anything but a poor attempt at trying to be funny, but the poor lines and that catch phrase, "fuck me sideways" is worn out.

A Fun Story But...

A fun story, but its hard to like the main character. Please tone him down to a more realistic level.

Lost Potential

Story could've been a bit longer. Felt like there was some lost potential there. For those saying the character got lucky completely missed everything that happened. The story is a fun twist on MMORPGs. If your a gamer read this series.

worth reading

above average and I'll pick up the next one when it comes out. The writing style is a bit off...not able to pinpoint exactly in what way.

Can't wait for the next

I'm getting hooked on this series, characters and story line are great. I hope the author keeps up the quality of the first two books.

Great second book

The pilot thickens. we learn a lot more about the MC's past, and his possible future. The skirmish against the goblins was intense and enjoyable to listen to. The story pacing seems just right, the power progression feels good, and the narrator is doing a pretty good job. overall. The book is enjoyable and I'm definitely heading over to read the third one. I'd recommend this series.

Story is good and fun setting

This book fleshes out the whole premise of this series, particularly the worldbuilding. Enjoyed it. Don’t overthink it though.

A good follow up

Hard to complain about free books on audible. A good sequel, well written and narrated. I did prefer the first book but it's still developing the world and the characters well.

In need an of editor, a proof reader & a thesaurus

Didn't finish. The writing gets worse the longer it goes on. Badly written, full of plot holes and superfluous language

Just wanted to give a rating

As the title says, I just wanted to give a rating and you have to write some words to give one.

Fun

good book, I especially like that the Orcs all have normal names while humans ect have hard to pronounce names. Combat is very well written and the combination of skills and abilities are implemented in interesting ways. Morgan is a bit daft but honestly likeable.

Predictable and silly 😛

It’s like a guilty pleasure. Entertaining and a lot of action. But at the end of it, you leave without anything but time passed. I listened to both the “free” books during travel, and I am happy enough. I will not bust the next book in the series.

more than I was expecting

I liked the first book but didn't love it. the world is interesting and I like the use of stones (it reminds me of another story I can't remember the name of). I got this book to pass the time between other series I am really enjoying and ended up wanting to read on. I think I will.

predictable

as with most stories serving the power fantasy crowd, the story quickly becomes predictable and, to me personally, not that interesting...
Still, if you enjoyed the first installment, this is probably for you

It was OK

I listened to the whole book and it was OK. I wouldn't pay for the 3rd installment. However, if it ever went on as and included title I probably would.

Good but lacking something

I enjoy the story but feel like the world or characters lack something. I struggled to care about a lot of the characters and they feel kind of basic and superficial in there thoughts and emotions except the main character, although even he is quite basic except for one part of the story about his step dad.
Its a good read, im not disappointed but i dont think i will buy the other 2 books. Also kind of lame that they are still only fighting goblins after 2 books like can we see some more creatures.

Easy story

An easy one to follow, good solid story. Character development is good with a couple interesting side stories to keep it interesting. Skill development has a couple dormant ones but they don’t get carried away like in other stories. Worth the time

Good narration and easy to follow. Still too many repeats of non growing skills. Hopefully the story picks up in book three.
