The Twilight Obelisk

Mirror World, Book 4

By: Alexey Osadchuk

Narrated by: Kyle McCarley

Olgerd and his tribal NPC gang have finally discovered the Forbidden City. Problem is, they haven't found what they were looking for. The ancient maps are hopelessly out of date, and the Ennan capital city is lying in ruins.

In the meantime, their enemies are closing in. Noctean hordes are arriving from the Silver Mountain Valley; the Dark army has already crossed the Back Stream, and the forces of Light have already entered the Icy Woods.

The magic protection sphere which Olgerd received from the city's invisible guardians is about to expire.... The only way he can save the lives of his trusty NPC friends is by activating the Twilight Obelisk.

Not what you expect

I was first drawn to the series because it wasn't a LitRPG that turns into a power trip. Oleg's ability to keep humble is one his best features. I will say of the four books this one seems the weakest as it feels like there are a lot of loose ends. In part, I feel like this was on purpose as it gives the feeling of being in a game where Oleg is ignoring the story. Some nice twists but I feel disappointed that all the friends that he made over the series boil down to a few bit parts.The NPCs are interesting but I feel that without also having some players involved it makes the story a bit dry.Still I feel its worth listening to complete the series sort of like how I feel about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It migh not be the ending we want but it at least gives us closure.

Wonderful!

It's been a while since my last listen. The story is so well done and finishing it is like waking up from a great dream. I like the hero. He does his best for his family and the clan of NPCs in the game. Always the underdog and he keeps going no matter what. The narration is well done (even some annoying voices). The narrator brings emotion and life to the story. An excellent series and great audiobooks.

Really liked the whole series

I feel like the ending was meant to continue on into another book and then suddenly it was over is my only complaint. Great LitRPG

rushed

this feels like a good ending to the series even if it feels somewhat rushed...
worth the journey

AWESOME

Man i am not looking forward to waiting for the next book. this one was incredible.

Excellent lit RPG

Is a truly excellent thoughtful lit RPG adventure. I love how the author made the motivation of the main character personal in nature not just a murder hobo romp through a VR world.

great pace and fun litrpg

I really enjoyed this tale, the story didn't drag and left me excited for the next in the series!

The story feels like "The Last Jedi" movie.

While I enjoyed the series and performance I felt that the writing was leading up to something more but in the end I felt the writer decided he was done with the story and just wanted to take the easy way out leaving what could have been a much better story behind. The intrigue set forth in the previous books is just cast aside with no real explanation leaving me to feel much like Star Wars episode 8...

LOVED IT

I can't wait till book five comes out. I hope the adventures are not over yet.

Great book.

I enjoyed this book immensely. The story fun and has a lot of fun twist can’t wait for the next one in the series.
