About this listen

You'll hate him too; Until you don't. . .

This is the story of Dan—a high school dropout who plays guitar in a heavy metal band and has a minimum wage job wearing a mouse costume. He's not exactly destined for great things.

Then Dan wakes up in another world—a world where science never progressed past the Middle Ages, and the laws of physics have been replaced by role-playing game rules. Dan makes some mistakes—some big mistakes. Dan becomes a Death Knight: a walking personification of death and darkness.

Now, Dan must fight monsters, zealots, and demons just to survive, and he must do it all alone—because everybody hates Death Knights.

If you enjoy dark humor with a splash of the absurd and want something different than the other LitRPGs this one is for you. I would call it light and humorous, but it's really dark light humor. A really fun read

Fun Break from standard LitRPGs

Main character is a little too dumb. However it’s done well and I had some really good laughs from this book. Looking forward to the next one.

Liked it

I had some extra credits and was looking around for something to listen to. The sample sounded interesting but I really didn't have high hopes for this one. But this really surprised me. I had a lot of fun listening to this. By the end I was only disappointed because this is the only book in the series so far. Looking forward to the next one in the series.

I loved how the story started and ended. The main character is a complete idiot, but he is a lovable idiot. I can’t wait for the sequel to come out.

This is an absolute fun

Worth the credit. Some fun, crude humor, some eye rolling silliness, and some gross action.

Not bad

Not too much on stats, but very funny writing. Narration is really good, he's got great timing for this kind of thing.

Funny light LitRPG

once again Phil Thron knocks it out of the park. From teams in space to Dad's taking on everything. Phil makes everything better. This fun LITRPG is well written and deserves a listen.

Now, this is not a 5 star book per se. The plot is fairly standard, even for a LitRPG. The main character is a bit bland, even for a LitRPG :) and the scenery is nothing special. So the "story" rating is only at 3 in my view.
And yet, I enjoyed this book wholeheartedly and I am even tempted to rate it with 5 stars, only for the joy it gave me. And here is why:
This is a book that "knows" exactly what it is, and plays to its strengths without trying to pretend that it is some sort of great literature. It "feels" written with love (yeah, I know it sounds cringey) yet with feet firmly on the ground. And the result is amusing, slightly funny (enough for me) surprisingly non-boring adventure with music related easter eggs all around.
Speaking of these, well - it was such a pleasure to read a book that, instead of using the old and tried Game or Movies references (which can be boring), is taking a stab at using 80s and 90s metal music references and easter eggs. And I loved it. And the guy apparently knows about Mercyful Fate (with some of the chapters named after their songs) which automatically increases my rating with half a star :D Anyway - that was original (for me), and I had so much fun with it, and I am looking forward the next in the series

Cue air guitar :)

I always know a book is good when I stop reading/listening to it, and I can't help but think about what might happen next. There are very few books that elicit an emotional reaction from me, and this has done it. The author wonderfully words parts in such a way that I feel angry or betrayed on the behalf of the protagonist. I really hope they continue the series, it's always nice to see an unconventional protagonist who maintains their character throughout the book. He's true to himself, and his thought processes are very consistent.

Totally Radical

The books amazing I really hope that there will be more in the near future I would love to see this series go on for a few books at least.

A must read.
