The Founder

Mirror World Series, Book 5

De: Alexey Osadchuk, Irene Woodhead - translator, Neil P. Woodhead - translator

Narrado por: Jonathan Sleep

For Olgerd, the month in recovery which followed his month-long full immersion stint in Mirror World may have felt like a single day. But while he relaxed in the bosom of his loving family, in-game events progressed in leaps and bounds.

The clans of both Light and Dark continue their lightning expansion into No-Man's Lands. Reports of violent clashes between clan scouts—both with other contestants and local top-level monsters—fill the pages of game and multimedia news feeds as everyone is trying to win the juiciest morsels of these new territories for themselves.

Olgerd knows that the Dark players still have a grudge against him—and that their rickety truce with the players of Light might be broken at any moment. Then the valleys of the Silver Mountains will fall prey to new invaders.

Olgerd needs to help the Calteans mount defenses for their new settlement. Which means it's time for him to get back into the game.

new narrator is awful

I loved the series, but in the final book, the narrator changed and completely changed the feel of it. whoever decided to change that should be reprimanded.

great addition to the series!

this is a great series and the author continues the story well. I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to find out what happens in the next one!

Glad the series continued on Audible!

First off, I didn't re-listen to the first three books even though I last did so 5 years ago. Because this is the start to a nee arc, and there were a reasonable number of references to the history if the series throughout the book, I didn't feel like I needed to.

Because I didn't listen to the prior 3 books after so long, I enjoyed the change in narrator, as Johnathan Sleep is really good and actually fit pretty well with the slightly stilted tone of the translation.

I enjoyed this continuation, though it has definitely taken a different turn from the rest of the series because the MC is mostly dealing with clan management as opposed to personal work and exploration. I enjoyed the unfolding of the story, and look forward to the next book coming out on Audible.

City builder and airy narrator

So the narrator change wasn't great. I don't know what led to a different narrator, but at this rate, just change it again. The current narrator is doesn't have the same flow as the last.

Other than that, the story wasn't bad, but I hope the next has a bit less city builder and more adventure.

Finally came back

I am so glad the story is back. I really hope it continues. Let's see what next journey holds.

meh

this had great possibilities, but the change in narrator definitely dragged it down. also, the story could have definitely been better than it was not sure what happened here.

love it

hopefully the next book comes out very soon can't wait to find out what happens next

You get used to new Narrator

This is the first book I have ever slowed down. I found the narration jarring at first but more tolerable at .90 speed. I enjoy the series and thought that it was over. I am excited for future offerings.

Enjoyed this story.

if you have not yet started Mirrorworld you should.

This is the Author the turned me on to this type of story.
so I am happy to read this book.
Thank you

Great continuation of the story but fell short

Lost the mark when you changed the Narration. By changing who performed narration on book 5 vs book 1-4 it lost its magic, compared to narration by Kyle McCarley who put passion and effort into each character and brought the story more to life. I still enjoyed the book but very disappointed in the amount of effort offer in the narration side. Please bring back the Original narration as it will bring in much better reviews and worth the money spent on them for the effort put forward for you amazing story.
