Irrelevant Jack

De: Prax Venter

Narrado por: Justin Thomas James, Jeff Hays, Andrea Parsneau

Jack is violently pulled into a game-like universe and dumped into a seaside town on the brink of destruction. When the people of Blackmoor Cove begin to ask about his combat role, Jack discovers his odd Hero Class and finds that parts of his game interface are riddled with exposed coding errors.

He quickly learns that the only way the town can grow and push back the unknown substance threatening to consume it is if brave Heroes venture into an infinitely high, ever-changing tower, kill bizarre monsters for their valuable equipment drops, and then deposit those items into a special chest.

As Jack struggles to level up and help save the people he has grown to care for, he learns the true nature of this simulated world and his destiny.... But can he overcome his reckless nature and become the leader this strange world needs?

This “crunchy” GameLIT/LitRPG story contains: item-based game mechanics, town building, countless unique monsters, boss fights, and cheaty special abilities.

Excellent!

An excellent book with an interesting premise, great characters and an engaging plot! The thing that characters and non-characters is is the ability to truly interact with them. The NPC’s here have real feelings and hopes whether or not they are flesh and blood, this is what makes us care. I am truly invested and can’t wait to see more of the story.
The narration is excellent also the actors are fantastic and always draw me deeper into the story!

It avoids the "totally" clueless main character

honestly he's a bit dumb but the whole story is worth getting into, the explanations aren't demeaning, and the track it takes isn't full on harem for once.

Good all around

The story is great and the narration and voices are some of the best. The production is top notch.

tower typel litrpg

interesting idea for a litrpg as jack gos to a world through a computer to find out that is his life in this new world do to his body being destroyed in the real world. so in order for him to level up he has to fight his way through a tower an only gains levels by beating each level . the interesting thing about the tower the levels are never the same an deal with different an strange ideas an well he finds out the what sent him there is a ai that helps him out in the form of a sword that he has to feed other blades to it to get more info an so an so on do not want to give to much away but that sums it up oh an it has a love story to it maybe

Absolutely Phenomenal!

I loved it
The world building was especially fantastic and also the reasons the other characters had to this otherworldly protagonist
Please release book 2 in audio form soon!

A decent book

The Book seemed to be read rather slowly, expecialy the female voices. It felt like the female voices were read at .75 speed. I sped up the book to 1.25 and it relatively fixed the voices. The story itself is decent. Character progression is good. Setting is fairly intriguing. Overall it’s a fun book for me at least.

Not bad.

So this book is nothing new in the genre, however it was still pretty enjoyable. Has a slow start but it was a decent tower/ dungeon crawl litrpg.

Must have

You must by this book! You must by this book! You must by this book! Awesome Amazing Astounding!

Tower-climbing, town-building dream game

I love Azure Dreams, An old, obscure JPRG from PS1 that involved turning a dying town into a metropolis while slowly expanding the power you can take with you into a randomized tower. This book reminds me immensely of that, in all the best ways, and makes me want to listen to roughly 6 more books in the series right now. As an audio-only reader for years, I am supremely tempted to go grab the Kindle version of the next book...but SBT did a truly excellent job performing this book. One of my favorite performances I've heard from the cast, alongside a well-orchestrated use of music and sound effects that added to the book in quiet and smart ways, without distracting from the narration.

The only con I can think of is the gear lists get a bit long towards the end...it was hard to follow all the values, and I barely cared- the story is excellent even with minimal attention paid to the crunch (genre term for the hard numbers in LitRPG). I imagine if I was reading it, the numbers and values would be around the sweet spot for frequency and info- and tables are easily glanced over and absorbed from the page-, but it did remind me of my wish that LitRPGs be edited separately for their audiobook performances. Overall, a minor quibble on a fun, clever book that left me wanting the next book ASAP!

Perfect to listen to, great narration and story

usually I always buy any soundbooth theater productions and this did not disappoint. hoping for a sequel!!!
