Mage Tank

A LitRPG Adventure

De: Cornman

Narrado por: Daniel Wisniewski

A hilarious new Isekai LitRPG adventure perfect for fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl and Full Murderhobo.

Conquer ancient dungeons. Get rewarded. Grow stronger.

After being killed by a high-velocity tree-hug, Arlo is transported to a new world where those brave and talented enough to conquer ancient Delves are rewarded with incredible power and abilities.

Unfortunately for Arlo, there is no tutorial. He is immediately forced to tackle a Delve set to the highest difficulty with a party of adventurers who are not only strangers to him, but strangers to each other as well.

Arlo has no armor, no weapons, no knowledge of the world at large, and his party is growing increasingly suspicious of his lack of preparation and paper-thin excuses for how he got there.

There's also the fact that the System in charge seems to be treating Arlo's situation like a big, cosmic joke.

Determined not to die again, Arlo forgoes putting any points into his highest stat, Intelligence, and instead dumps everything he's got into Fortitude. After all, who needs equipment or fighting skills when you can eat fireballs for breakfast and still ask for more hot sauce?

Mage Tank begins a new Isekai LitRPG adventure that features steady progression, intelligent characters who spend time making intentional build choices, and tons of laughs. It’s not action all-the-time, but Arlo’s life is replete with danger and, more importantly, consequences.

A really excellent book

This book was fun, clever, and well written. If you like this genre of book you absolutely will like this one.

I am very much looking forward too book 2.

Narration was excellent.

Really really good!

I think this will become one of the great new Litrpg series. It reminds me of Erik Uglands series except better written and more focused on progressing the story. Very interesting world and MC. Looking forward to make more books from this author.

Out of bounce but still great

This is one of those books that's sort of out of balance in descriptions taking so long that you can get a bit annoying, but at the same time, you still like the book you like, what's happening characters are great. There's some potential for some real character development in comedy and some great ways to advanced the characters that weren't fully explored here. But overall, it was a book that you could listen to while you're relaxing by the pool

Outstanding Start to the Series

I binged this entire audiobook in a day on 1.0x speed. It was great! Daniel did a fantastic job narrating, he brought a ton of life to the characters I just couldn’t stop listening. The story has great pacing and keeps you hooked the whole time.

If you enjoy witty banter, great writing, and excellent narration, you will love this book. It was refreshing to have a 35 year old main character that had his life together and enjoyed his life get isekai’d. I will be on the look out for the next book! Highly recommend!

Deep cut references

Do you like litrpgs? What about references? What about subtle anime and nerd culture references? What about no restraint from hiding any cheese? If you've answered yes to all or most of these questions, this book is for you! I'd definitely call this a popcorn listen, a little fun, casual, and it has a nice simple "RPG" system that you're not looking at audiobook chapters just to listen to the dictation. Cornman has definitely set the hoops to start letting his sharks jump through, and I'm feeling there's going to be fire involved and probably a parade of Cephalopods.
I for one look forward to further books in this light hearted, referential, nerdy, inclusive, and overall fun series.
Grotto wishes for more of us minions for when he finally wrenches rule of the world with his tentacles and chews his opposition with his break!

Amazing entry

Dialogue is top tier for the genre. Mesh of sci-fi / litrpg is master craft. World building is gripping.

Not quit squishy

This book has an interesting concept by the Mage, who usually is a squishy person, is really hard to kill. I loved the comedy in the book in the system messages and the companion's manicle tendencies. I am so excited to see what happens next.

Pretty good

I enjoyed it, a different take on a reincarnation story. Looking forward on seeing where the story goes!

Yes.

some authors just know how to write. Yes it's funny, the story is interesting and engaging and yes the narration is on point. Who wouldn't want to read it?

Wow! And with a snarky, really snarky gaming system you'll have a blast

Wow! I loved this book right from the get go. This is the story of Arlo his second life starts as he minding his business riding his bike to work when he's clipped by a car and he careens off the road into a tree! Arlo doesn’t waste any time on his character build, getting his hair and beard back and he even gets back a few years... But he's also given a time limit to work out all the stats and where to place them, before he's dumped into a creation delve. And with a team of strangers, of course the dungeon is doin it's best to end them! And boy oh boy just wait 'til you meet Grotto!!! I know you'll love if just as much as I do... So grab the audiobook and treat yourself to Daniel Wisniewski nuanced performance.

Hey here's something that's sure to amuse you:
