About this listen

Cat is a wannabe merchant who specializes in procuring in-game valuables to sell for real money. He's a cunning trickster who wriggles his way out of trouble thanks to his quick wit and his trading talents, and his credo is “Anyone can be bought provided the price is right." He starts from scratch, using every opportunity to advance his plans. The first book in the Rogue Merchant series, The Starlight Sword is the story of this common trader’s rise to becoming the world’s newest legend, the most famous merchant in the entire Sphere of the Worlds—a worldwide multiverse comprised of hundreds of worlds, from horrible Infernos ruled by Demon Lords to mechanical worlds inhabited by sentient constructs.

In the Sphere of the Worlds, gigantic markets have sprouted at the crossroads of trade routes, and players use astral ships to travel between worlds to avoiding having to venture into the perilous underground tunnels of the Endless Paths. Dozens of powerful clans share this delicious pie, scheming or waging wars against each other. A classic might-and-magic-style LitRPG series with elements of manapunk, the Rogue Merchant series focuses on the economics of this game world, including various trade methods, such as regular and auction trading, as well as social and political interactions between clans and players. There's plenty of intrigue and espionage, betrayal, trade wars, besieged castles, and epic air battles of flying ships!

I feel a bit mislead

The ‘ Rogue’ merchant wasn’t a rogue as in a class or an outcast. He joins a clan right away. He wasn’t a merchant either. Like, he pulls some kind of scheme where he cornered the market in arrows. Tbh, I was half asleep and didn’t understand what he did that no one else couldn’t do. Even at the beginning, he isn’t a merchant but a scammer. In any case, the story quickly becomes about the sword and he starts questing. I only made it 6 hrs in. The questing is totally lame and the system notices go off mid fight. So the action is constantly impeded by a dumb robot voice. There is time for this book to turn into something good but I can’t wait around, I’m on vacation.

Pretty boring

The amount of information dump in this book is tremendous, on top of that the author wants you to feel bad for this MC dude that basically scammed players out of money for virtual goods. This same idiot MC doesn't understand the consequences of his actions and that it brings the real world to his door step.
