Indaria

System Universe, Book 6

De: SunriseCV

Narrado por: Adam Verner

The raid did not turn out to be what he was expecting…

After some unsettling news brought to them by an unexpected messenger, Prince Edgar fled the Raid Dungeon to hurry back to his kingdom, leaving Derek as the impromptu leader. Being concerned about his people on the outside, Derek chose to rule with an iron fist to finish the dungeon as soon as possible. This choice didn’t make him any friends, but he didn’t need any for it to work.

By taking the strongest to battle, he was able to lead the remaining party members to a successful dungeon completion, though, not without casualty. Things are never easy. On their way out of the dungeon, Derek and Silvi were abducted by a strange elf of unknown power. This man, known only as Dave, was strangely helpful and shared much of Derek’s own distaste of the system interference that had been occurring ever since his evolution. Now, with more questions than ever before, and answers to questions that he’d never thought to ask, Derek and Silvi head back to Savannah to lend their help. What has happened to Cydaria? Was Edgar and Lyra leaving the raid the correct decision? Did Cydaria even need the prince’s help? What does dragon taste like when properly cooked?

Don’t miss the sixth installment of Derek’s journey in the System Universe. Join Derek in this unique combination of the LitRPG, Isekai, and Slice of Life genres. He has friends, a bond that should last forever, and even a home. What more could our overpowered protagonist ask for?

Great Series; OK Book

Let me start by saying that I love this series. Up until this book, I voraciously read each book a couple times. Like, unable to sleep because I needed to get through “just one more chapter”. I think I’ll stick to the one reading with this one, though. It’s OK. It’s not bad. I liked it.

I just felt this book was filler to get the next arc. I mean, I get it, I guess, but, compared to the rest of the series, nothing really happens. There are no big reveals or cool new abilities. Just pieces set up to be moved later. It was the first time in the series my mind wandered and I had to rewind to figure out what I missed.

Unfortunately, much of the book was focused on kingdom control and development… and the many meetings that have to take place to get a nation on its feet. The little action the book does have in it has the MC showboating that he could be used as the ultimate weapon against a two nation army and never feel like he was at any risk.

During one of the many meetings the reader has to slog through, I noted that it felt like I was in a social studies class. I know people who enjoy that sort of thing, but it’s not for me.

Also, annoyingly, the MC’s tone in all of these meetings moved from lighthearted levity to acting like a child just because he can. No one can touch him and everyone knows it. Especially the MC. So I guess that gives Derrick the right to act like a total jerk. That rubbed me the wrong way.

I’m concerned about the tone of the MC for future books. Nothing in this book could do anything more than scratch him. I’m worried the author might be hitting the “overpowered MC brick wall”: when there’s little that can harm the MC, it is difficult for some authors to up the ante and keep readers invested. Adventures stop being as fun when even the MC knows he can sleepwalk through any adversity.

I still recommend the series. I just hope the next arc - the rather obvious arc I thought we’d be starting in this book - starts at the beginning of the next book.

Still Good

Still good, most long running series tend to lose interest at this point but this one hasn’t.

One of the best LitRPG series

As always, I really enjoyed this book. It was definitely not the best book of this series, but it was still enjoyable.

Minor complaints:

1) Politics are boring.
2) No dungeon diving or adventures.
3) Way too short! Other than cleaning up after the war, nothing really happened.

I'm glad Derek's companion was actually a companion in this book.

I beg the author not to have Derek go back to his old planet! He already said that there were no attachments left on earth, so there really isn't a reason for him to go back. I'm more interested in seeing what happens with his old system expanding.

Excelent history, narrator looks like reading for us to sleep

He cannot interpret different emotions. Always the same tone. All the books erre the same. The history, however, is in my top 5 best of all time.

Awesome book and series

Awesome book and series. I really look forward to the next book. Great story and characters.

awesome

awesome from beginning to end and with how the ending ending up that way I hope there is more to come

Beautiful delicious book series is back!

Derek shows 2 kingdoms what FAFO is and Sylvie is a delight sprinkled throughout. I can’t get enough of them.

Love the series

The other makes benign things, fun, can’t wait for the next book, I’m gonna listen to the series and until it’s done

Boring filler story can’t wait for next

Too much filler and waiting for the next book. Hopefully finally learn more about the different systems.

Great story, but slow progression

I’m really invested in the story but there are some scenes that take forever to get through that seems to have little to do with the story. It really slows things down. To be fair, the series has been like that most of the way through so it is not new with this book, but it was more noticeable this book.
