What can a game clan accomplish without a castle? The answer is obvious: nothing. Therefore, the main objective of any leader in a game world is to acquire a base of operations. Finding himself in exactly this position, High Shaman Mahan, leader of the Legends of Barliona, accepts an offer from the Emperor and the Dark Lord to vanquish the army of Phantoms that has inhabited Altameda, the phantom castle. However, this seemingly ordinary quest sets in motion such a momentous chain of events that the Shaman can do nothing but resort to his intuition and act on instinct. After all, a player who is being hunted by the three top clans of the continent at once can do little else....

Great addition to the series. Nothings never as it seems in these books which makes them hard to put down. Perfomance was great as usual, really adds personality to the characters.

Fantastic, cannot wait for the fifth book.

I bought the first book in the series on a whim. but after the first couple of chapters I was hooked. I have been burning my way through these books over the past 3 weeks and just can't them down. The theme reminds me a lot of Log Horizon. I am eagerly awaiting for book five to come to Audible.

This is a immensely captivating book series!

I sometimes can't believe that all of the voices in this performance come from the same voice actor. It adds a great texture to the story.

The story itself is an interesting exploration of creativity and the struggle to find ones true identity but listening to your heart.

Compelling LitRPG story -- amazing voice acting in performance
