interesting

i think this is an interesting book hope there will be more like it keep it coming

Eh...

Narration is almost fine except when he uses that whisper voice, It is too soft to hear compared to his other voices, had to jack up the vol. then lower it constantly. The story is pretty bland and he just constantly tells everyone that his big secret. I am sorry but I am not going for the next book.

Its ok, not great, but acceptable.

Definitely a cat person. There are interesting facets of this book that strikes interest, but not enough information or explanations to really flesh it out. You have concepts of class systems, cast systems, elements of slavery that's apparently not slavery. This is entirely unexplored and never delved into. They're essentially serfs. low class citizens with little benefits. It would have been interesting to see this expanded upon.

Next you have entire magic systems that are explained minorly, I feel more could have been added here to flesh it out and give us a better idea of the nature of things.

Then you have the antagonists, this was perhaps the most unsatisfactory thing of all. One of those bad for the sake of bad with little history or reasoning. No real exploration into the facets that drive these individuals. Basically they're bad because I said so with two or three reasons thrown out there.

I believe the author is on the right track, has something they can work with and with some refining and work could even have a gem, I'm chopping this first book up to just starting out as an author and look forward to their growth as an author.

As for the Narrator, very talented, however maybe less whisper hiss voices, they're difficult to make out and force the listener to manage the volume. Mad skills otherwise, some serious talent here. As for the other narrators, fantastic works all around.

it had potential when he shot himself in the foot

it had potential but the main character not understanding that he literally signed himself into slavery I just it in annoys me the entire book just really annoys me the main character is just kind of a coward

I wanted to keep reading!

This book captures the adventure of a novel and the excitement of a game

Author must be a cat person. 😁

So the MC gets taken right out of his room and sent to another world.
In this world, humans are kind of the pets of the felines, and their enemy is the canines. And with the canine threat is also ursine, vulpine and whatever hyenas are.
The MC is the first human with the ability to do magic that the cats know of, and he helps them to withstand the onslaught of the enemy with his magic and understanding of modern day Earth engineering.
I got this book for free with the expectation of an honest review.
I really like the world and the way the magic and leveling up works.
I am soooo looking forward to book 2. This is looking to be an awesome series.
6 out of 5 stars.

Great start to a promising new series!

I'm really enjoying this genre. In his bio, Matt Pivots says he tries "infusing his work with a blend of technical expertise and imaginative storytelling". I think he scored big in his effort here. I really hope he continues and provides us with many more great stories for my enjoyment.

Amazing

Fun LitRPG Fantasy

This was my first experience with Matt Pivots' work, and I was very entertained by the story. I enjoyed the unusual worldbuilding. The characters were quirky and amusing. I liked the protagonist as he faced and overcame his challenges. I appreciated the humor and exciting fight scenes. Matt Hicks' and Erin Bateman's narrations were great, and their performances added to the story's entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

I will preference this by saying I received I free copy for an honest review.

I did like the book I could tell the author is a cat person due to the description of the cat peoples antics. There was also some nice meow puns in there. The crafting elements are nice and I hope they go more in-depth into them as more books come out.

I believe the narrator did a good job with this book especially with the voices of the cat ppl and dog ppl.

There is only one question I have… what happened to Noah’s cat….?

Overall a good listen, it will be interesting to see how other books of the series flesh out.
