Warrior of Mist: A Post-Apocalyptic LitRPG

Mists of Redemption, Book 1

De: M. L. Reid

Narrado por: Laurie Catherine Winkel

A hero's journey teeming with monsters and mystery is thrust upon an ordinary girl, who must struggle to stay alive, feed her family, and save the world.

It wasn't the day the Gates appeared that changed Jynn's life; she'd only ever known an Earth where hordes of interdimensional monsters terrorized humanity. No, Jynn's life changed forever when she graduated from high school and tested positive as a Hunter: a breed of enhanced humans evolved to challenge the monsters who are ushering in Earth's apocalypse. The only problem is . . . she has the very lowest stats possible.

Struggling to compete with the more powerful and skilled Hunters and barely able to support her family with the scant kills she does manage to log, Jynn knows she's fighting a losing battle. When she's suddenly kidnapped while on a Hunting trip, a mysterious System offers to make Jynn stronger if she agrees to become a pawn in its quest for revenge. Without regard for the consequences, she jumps at the opportunity.

Now, fused body and soul to a System dictating her every move, Jynn endeavors to balance her new mission with her responsibilities as a Hunter. And as she levels up, defeating monsters and developing new skills, she'll soon discover the weakest Hunter in history might be the only thing standing between Earth and its total destruction.

The first volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series—with almost 600,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Such a cool world!

Such a fun book! I don't have a lot of experience with LitRPG, but I really enjoyed this!

just go listen to solo leveling

This is a pretty bad rip off of solo leveling but does it worse. From being rated as the lowest ranking hunter, mother falling into a coma due to the portals opening, having to fight to pay medical bills and support younger sister despite being so weak.then becoming the only person in the world who can level up. daily quest you have to complete or else you get punished. you are better off going with solo leveling better story and better MC and side characters

Loved this story. Absolutely fantastic!

This was such a great book!! Absolutely loved the characters and story. Can’t wait to see what happens next!!

I Think I Read This Book Before

Basically it’s very similar in structure and set up to solo leveling by Jin Woo. It’s like the author read that book and thought how can I improve that story but with a female main character and cast.

Enjoyable

I rate this litrpg 4.1 - 4.2 stars
Was entertaining just kinda slow. I didn’t mind a bit of the mc’s dramatic soliloquies; indeed it would draw out the characters passions if not for it being over done stuck on repeat. Still I feel the authors got the talent but don’t feel I’ve seen the IT so far. Though reminds me of my feelings with the author Ivan Kal. Where I’d never have guessed he’d write one of my top litRPG to listen too based of one series opposed to the other.
Anyways. The system and power progression is very simple but decent. There’s allot to the story and world progression but feel it missing something.

Ps. As for power progression I really like to actually see the characters literally feel the effects of getting stronger swifter. Etc. Sure it would be nice to have it confirmed when checking your stats. But to many books lately have characters go oh look my strength gained 6 points sweet now I’m strong. Even if they go on to prove said strength by picking up a builder or whatever I just can’t stand when they don’t actually go through littéral change the moment they plug in the stats. This books gets a medium to low rating in showing the characters actual body spirit/magic progression. Not many stats to choose from. And doesn’t even say what she’s choosing her free points on. By Ya eventually says the total. But cmon. Okay that’s all. Hope it helps you decide

Great Storyline

I like the concept of the story and level building system. Compared to others, she’s literally on her own doing this and she’s killing it.

So much cringe

To be fair the story is written very well, far better than the vast majority of OP cultivation stories. My problem is that it quickly turns into a conspiracy nut running around screaming that they are all going to die if they don't stop using Crystal energy. The parallels with the fossil fuels debate in the real world is pretty obvious. Even though The MC is right, she still goes about it in the most cringe inducing way for this introverted listener. Also the Mc has a rather nasty attitude towards a male character whose only crime that i am aware of is that he is The Male Character. which also leaves me wincing internally. There is also the usual cringe of strong and rich picking on the poor and weak like they do in every single other story. Not very original. After a while i found i was skipping more sections then i was listening to and had to come to the conclusion that this story just wasn't for me.

Fantastic building of the story

I loved how this story kept building and the character growth was amazing it hooked me from start to finish!

Really? Let's make women the heroes they are.

Look, I appreciate drama. This is dramatic. I like the story. I like the characters. I love that I just tried to write strong female characters and my auto correct decided I wrote he-man. That really says more than I could personally... Why would we have a strong female? That is so wonderfully wrong and ashamedly expected. Great job predicative algorithm. You have understood me not at all.

Im addicted

Ok so I want everyone to give this story an honest chance. The reviews before this that compare this book to solo leveling…honestly the only comparison I can make is the premise. I feel like this book has everything that story is lacking. Solid story building, no sound effects, a quality well thought out protagonist with growth throughout the first two books. I’ve been obsessed with this story from the beginning and can’t wait for the next books in the series. It keeps me on my toes and the world building is fantastic. Try it for yourself!
