Viridian Gate Online: Crimson Alliance

The Viridian Gate Archives, Book 2

De: James A. Hunter

Narrado por: Armen Taylor

Three days ago, Jack Mitchel saved his life. By dying.

He dodged a world-ending bullet—in the form of an extinction-level asteroid cannonballing toward Earth—by successfully uploading his mind into the brand-new, ultra-immersive, fantasy-based VRMMORPG, Viridian Gate Online. Unfortunately, he's also stumbled headlong into a secret conspiracy that will transform V.G.O. into a new feudal dark age.

Jack expected to live out his new fantasy life in peace, but now he and his misfit crew of rebels are the only ones preventing a tyrant emperor and his regime from taking power. Thankfully, everything isn't quite as hopeless as it seems—Jack has a plan. Sort of. With only a handful of supporters, he's going to get the jump on the bloodthirsty empire by snatching one of their key cities right from underneath their noses. In order to pull off the impossible, however, Jack's going to have to develop his formidable Shadowmancer powers, raid some ridiculous dungeons, and make some shady allies—allies who may be more dangerous than the empire itself.

awsome

loved the struggle and the strategy a little predictable at times but you where kinda of hoping it would go that way anyways so I was ok with it

I am

Probably in the older listeners of this series. However I played mmorpg since everquest in 98/99 and then wow. I still think the author does not have much experience in the game genre. Like the insane overpowered enemy which nullify our heroes ability. Specifically since characters should be opposed the enemy char should not be able to use his light either. Whatever he called himself he basically were a paladin with a specific class kit...

So expect from stuff like this, and the insane overpowered items (15% bonuses? If you get 5% from a set you are lucky...) it really is a good idea and I will probably get all of it, even if only 3 of the books are free. But that is great to test a series i probably wouldn't had because of buying 7 books or more. With premium deal and tons of free books is truly a great deal.

Getting better as it goes.

Good story. Great societal and political undertones. Fun and exciting the whole way through. Although for a RPG story they seem to miss out on describing a lot of the loot and character building. Still not sure what he got from the Moss Hag?

Great Narration fun story

Does all kinds of accents, the story is fun. Treatment of AI seems interesting so far. Wish the books were longer.

Not bad

Not bad story… but really? I could see where this was going for miles ahead. Just the details were unclear.

WOW

Loved it. Can't wait to see what they have next. downloading the next one now

This is my first James Hunter series

I'm really enjoying this series! Lots of action, strategy, and story happening all around you! There are times I can almost see the narrators description in my mind. That's when I know I'm really into this listen! I'm so excited to listen to the next one! Well done and oh, the narrator is spot on! Fantastic accents and voices! I tend to follow the good narrators!

The beginning

I really the storyline of this book. The Characters were quite appealing, very likable, funny, brave. Just the kind of people I’d wanna hang out with at the end of the world.

awesome story and good performance

love the story and series. going pretty good. the narrator is a little monotone at a few points but overall great voice acting for the various characters and accents. well done

Good Litrpg

You have to suspend your disbelief for parts of the premise, but I generally think it's a fresh take on the stuck-in-a-game story.
