The Scarlet Wolf: A Blood Magic Lycanthrope LitRPG

Wolf of the Blood Moon, Book 1

De: Shane Purdy

Narrado por: Hannah Schooner, Giancarlo Herrera

When a Demonic Assault occurs, most people stuck inside of a Fracture end up hiding inside of a bunker in the hopes that they don’t get killed by a demon.

Others might even hope for the slightest possible chance at signing a contract with a spirit and becoming a Guardian.

So when Scarlet was caught in a Fracture, the last thing she expected was to become a demon herself. Exactly two centuries ago, humanity was struck with their very first Demonic Assault. The skies above the capital of the US, shattering as if made of glass; demons of all kinds appearing out of nowhere; and no way to effectively stop them before the end of the Assault.

On the brink of devastation, some of the humans managed to find themselves offered a contract whilst inside of a Fracture. One bringing a chance at power, fame, and fortune.

Now, long after every nation of the world joined together to form the Terran Republic, Scarlet finds herself stuck trying to find a university from the Republic’s capital that will accept someone from a lower tier city into their midst. But, as if that wasn’t already enough trouble for one person to bear, she somehow ends up stuck in one of the Fractures of a Demonic Assault while visiting her father figure’s company building.

However, she doesn't perish in the darkness and instead awakens her dormant bloodline as a noble demon. A Blood Lycan.

Turns out she had been a demon all along and had been born for the apocalypse.

This is a book you HAVE to check out

This is a great fantasy book and a great first book in a series that I’m looking forward to reading the second book. It’s nice to see an MC it has such character depth. She embraces her flaws, acknowledges them and strives to overcome and become a better person and guardian. I look forward to seeing her character progression over the books in the series.

TV/Movie Volumes

So to start out I think the book was great all in all, and if you're a fan of the Azarinth Healer and similar such stories about a female protagonist battle junkie thrust into dangerous situations, then this will be right up your alley. I was expecting a bit more of a self-insert given the name of the author and theme of the book, but all in all I think it came out very well.

The one gripe I have is the consitency of the audio. The narrators did a fantastic job with the actual voicing and everything, as always, but the volume varied wildly on this one. Inner monologue and the MC was generally pretty quiet, much like during a movie when the actors are talking and you need to turn it up a bit more to hear them. Then the commercial comes on and suddenly its way too loud and you need to turn it back down. The frustrating part about this is that it happens within the same chapter regularly. This is most noticed during some dialogue scenes and when they announce the chapter title.

Next books

love the book and happy to see that the next books just need to be narrated (the next book will come out on June 17th)

Fun, action packed story and great world building.

This was a very good story from start to finish. The pacing was great, and the world was presented in a way that made you want to learn more about it. The characters are well developed with plenty of space for growth through the story while being flawed in realistic and understandable ways. I'd initially expected the story to have a younger cast based on the cover, but I was pleasantly surprised to find the primary cast to be early university aged young adults.

The story had a lot of litrpg crunch, sometimes more than I'd prefer, but the main characters progress was very well documented with it, and it give good look into the system the story will use moving forward.

I really enjoyed the narrators. They did a wonderful job bringing the character to life and their tandem work was put together very well.

I definitely recommend the book and I'm really looking forward to the next one!

I like it

Story is fine, pacing is all right, the characters have a couple of moments where they don’t act like people normal just to keep the story moving but you can overlook that.

My biggest issue is that the reader needs to drink some WATER or tea to something to stop swallowing so much it’s very distracting. The voices were fine.

Great listen

I loved the descriptions and the characters were fun. I can't wait for the next book!

Fantastic!!!

So this popped up as my suggestions after listening to another book, and I gave it a shot because I liked the sound of the narrator. Oh my gosh this was so fricken good! I already preordered the next one!

Loved it!! A worthwhile purchase if you like the genre.

I’m honestly certain now that both of these VAs can make any book a hit but this time they were just the cherry on top. I wouldn’t say that this book was perfect but it’s up there. The MC is a believable character that makes you curious on how she will if not for her stats, then arguably more for the way she interacts with the world and becomes better overtime. Likable characters around her and situations that showcase her abilities without making her seem like a nuke on legs.

This book focuses more on characters, systems and world building over straight storytelling with overarching plot, at the same time it doesn’t feel like we’re missing anything because of the journey the MC is on.

this was a fun read

I really enjoyed this book and looking forward to the Next book. the story was interesting and made me want to know and I liked the characters and the voice acting was good

everything is good

I am a hard one to catch on for litrpg books. I can't say anything bad on this one. even great audio speakers for the characters.

I need that 2nd book asap
