Past Life Hero: Book 1

A LitRPG Adventure

By: Blaise Corvin

Narrated by: John Skelley

He was a Hero. Now he's not. He'll stop at nothing to rise to the top again.

Max was murdered, but now he is mostly over it. Living on earth as a recent college graduate, he can still perfectly recall his past life on the fantasy world of Albion before that. He'd been hailed as the "Hero of the World" after crawling his way up from poverty, eventually enjoying great fame and luxury.

But on mana-starved Earth, he's just a guy.

However, when Earth is suddenly attacked, changing the natural laws of the world and threatening all life on the planet, Max will get a new opportunity to regain some of his lost power...and then some. He discovers an entire system of multi-dimensional colleges created for those gifted with a Path.

The universe is much larger than Max had even known ever during his first life. Max is not the Hero of Albion anymore, but the drive to excel is still part of his nature. And the more power he has, the easier it should be to save his world.

...Right?

Welcome to this unique twist on isekai fantasy in the next LitRPG Adventure by bestseller Blaise Corvin, author of Delvers LLC and Apocalypse Cultivation.

Interesting MC, good flow of the story

The narrator is a bit slow, but if you speed it up you get a nicer experience.

The story is good and the MC is quite interesting.

Would recommend 👍

A more believable MC

I like how the MC isn't a complete and total do gooder trope. He has faults and struggles, but tries to do the best he can. A great book. Really looking forward to book 2. I've already pre-ordered it.

This was good ...I want more

I like this MC a lot. He's got the goods, but he's not infallible. Also, I love that he knows stuff, but he doesn't know everything, and that the he doesn't even presume to have all the answers. He's an imperfect guy, fantastic character development, especially at the end. Action scenes could be beefed up little bit, but it's still pretty good. IMO I'd rather get B-grade action scenes and A-grade story telling ....than to get A-grade action scenes and a C-grade story.

Well done my G. Blaise Corvin is worth following. I don't like everything he does, but he can write ...and as for the stuff he does that I do like ...I like them a lot!!! This book was awesome. Very much looking forward to the next installment.

Story was great

Story was really interesting, VA can’t really do female voices very well but that’s okay still really great!

From Hero to School?

The start of the book started really good. Very down to Earth, with earth problems.
Then what seemed to be getting good, suddenly it started to become a book about going to school, with classes and everything.
It just got weird, but overall it’s a good book. I just wish the preview actually previewed a little bit on that. Kinda felt a bit lead by the nose.

A great start

Great story and good writing. I enjoyed the characters and the world building. Can’t wait for the next one and where the adventure goes from there.

Originality and a great story that doesn't rely on stats

it feels like it's been ages since I got to listen to a good isekai that didn't require me to skip 3-5 minutes to skip over the slog of upgraded stats to show character progress.

love the characters, story progress, pace and mystery of what's going on. I really hope the author can keep it up. my credits are going to start going towards the authors other titles

Great Progression

The way the story progressed throughout the book added some depth and character to Max, and eventually the explanation of his past.

good book

good book. . . good narrator. . . will get the next book in the series.

listening at 1.2x

just had to speed it up a bit and it worked for m, every thing else was great
