Publisher's summary

The apocalypse is coming, but only a lucky—or perhaps unlucky—few know.

Silas is inducted into the System, becoming the last in a long line of Earth's "forerunners." The rewards are great, but the danger is greater. We are not alone in the universe. The fate of five worlds hangs on how their forerunners perform.

Will Silas have what it takes to win Earth a place in the multiverse? Or will Earth become another mining world stripped of all resources and left a barren husk floating in the cosmos?

A system-enforced secret, a deadly challenge, and only a year to go. The countdown begins now!

Funny, dorky, witty and an epic adventure!

Long time listener first time reviewer... what can I say other than this was such a fun LitRPG to listen to. It was captivating, fun and exciting. There are dorky moments, funny ones and then action packed! To top it off, you got Travis on this who just adds that much more pow to the already stellar universe....no no.... multiverse!

Looking forward to book 2 and beyond!

Great concept

I like how it's a different approach than just shoving the world and main character into integration.

The balance of fantasy and humanization

It does a great job of tying everything together and I can’t wait to get more of these!

Well done!!!

It's not the best thing I've ever read, but I don't have anything to complain about ...that is actually waaaaaay more impressive than anything else I could say. Unfortunately a lot of my reviews, even generally positive ones feature one or 2 major complaints. This book though, start to finish nothing broke my immersion. I was truly caught up in the story, just enjoying listening to one of my favorite narrators do his thing.

Again, I don't think the author reinvented the wheel or anything. There is some novelty in how the MC gets sucked into the system and magic, but at it's core the subject matter is pretty familiar. The difference lays in the execution. This was a really polished piece of writing.

Sean Oswald is a talented dude. I've actually already been following this guy without realizing it. I've enjoyed a couple of his other books as well, but I hadn't paid attention to who the author was. With this book tho ...now he's one of those authors that I will follow in earnest. Consider me a fan.

Worth the credit!!!
