Tower Apocalypse

Tower Apocalypse, Book 1

By: Cassius Lange, Ryan Tang

Narrated by: Eric Michael Summerer

My life was ordinary, but never boring. That is, until a colossal tower landed smack-dab in the middle of the city.

What should have followed was mass panic and hysteria, but I never got to that part. Why? Simple. I was taken along with 99,999 other people from Earth and dropped onto an unknown world.

Strange beings appeared before us—floating, featureless figures that call themselves demi-gods. They ruled this place, this fantastical world called Gaea. The reason why they took us? Not so simple. We'd supposedly been selected to show that Earth was worth saving from an upcoming cataclysmic event. So, no pressure there.

Gaea is a world entirely controlled by the System, a sarcastic and level-hungry intelligence that granted everyone magical powers, strange classes based on personality or luck, monsters to fight and even loot. It forces us to compete in "events", but no one can really tell us what the endgame is. Climbing the tower and finding out exactly what Gaea is, who created it, and why, could bring us closer to the truth behind our abduction and the fate of our world.

My name is Devin Cain. Join me as I wield Muramasa, a cursed katana that hungers for blood and souls, and a class created to curse players and monsters to death. What can go wrong?

good book

I like the the powers ablates and the story but the MC needs to stop wining and grow some balls except that loved toe book it is like a anime

terrible plot

There seemed to be no possible way for the main character's rival to benefit from their actions. Started with overpowered ability with no counter, procedes to ruin humanity and weaken everyone, but not gain a commensurate personal power. MC is supposed to be in his 30's but acts like a 12 year old in all respects. MC summons creatures that are supposed to reflect his personality... they act as though they are 6 making fart jokes and snickering about it.

Main Character

His sword can be Muramasa or Masamune. I thought it common knowledge that Masamune is stronger and so wouldn’t he at least explore that part of his sword?

Don’t listen to most of these bad reviews

If you’re looking for a good time and another series you’re interested in continuing, then read this. It’s a four star for some reason, but it doesn’t deserve it and if you like well written LITRPGs then try it out. While it’s not a perfect book it’s a very fun read, and I’m not one to leave good reviews on every trashy LITRPG.

Great potential

I can’t wait to see what the author comes up with!!
There is so much potential for this series.

Standard Fare

MC gets a cool class, has consistently terrible luck, is awful at naming things, immediately gets the girl, makes the worst possible strategic/tactical decisions at -every- turn, but plot armor makes those choices moot, of course. Essentially the same exact complaints you'd expect from literally -every- trope-heavy novel in this genre.

But, the narrator is one of the better ones, it's fast paced enough that it's fairly easy to ignore the terrible story choices as you focus on the next plot point.

Worth a listen so long as you're not burned out on all the normal tropes yet. It is certainly better than average within the genre, all things considered.

Sooo good

This book is way better than I was thinking it was going to be! I cannot wait to read the next one! Fighting and monsters and gaming oh my!

Good series

The story is pretty good and the narrator did a great job got no complaints, will follow the series.

Dark but fun.
