Publisher's summary
IN THE ANCIENT DAYS...
“...There was a King of the blood of the Sthi, and he wore Five Crowns and all the world owed him homage and lived at peace with one another. Then the Years of Darkness came upon us, and men became as beasts, and the world we know today came into being. But from those days to this there has been among us a prophecy that a King shall once more rise to wear the Five Crowns and bring men to peace.”
This is the message brought by High Priestess Kayopla to Bertan Wandor, House Master of the Order of Duelists. Is Wandor the man chosen by destiny to claim the throne and restore peace? Only by setting out on an incredible quest, alone and unaided against the Dark Forces threatening his world, can Wandor discover the truth. It is a quest rich in adventure, combat, mystery and imagination, in the highest traditions of heroic fantasy.
AND THIS IS WANDOR’S TALE....
For fans of Game of Thrones, The Witcher, Wheel of Time, and Lord of the Rings.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4,812
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Jack Pritcher has hit rock bottom, losing his home and job. Just when he believes his sanity might be next, he's presented with an opportunity that sounds utterly unbelievable. The offer on the table is to become a guardian of a Portal, a doorway to another world. But there's a twist – he must keep it a secret. Portals, it turns out, are alive in some way. They possess sentience and dictate their own set of rules that guardians must follow, under the penalty of death.

Author’s Note: This novel is “LitRPG Lite,” which means that it does not give explicit stats, levels, etc., but it is very much RPG-inspired fantasy literature, in which characters acquire items and weapons and spells, gain experience and increase in power by fighting and defeating enemies, and obtain quests that require them to venture into dungeons and fight monsters and defeat bosses, with the ultimate goal of defeating a final boss. I would say that the inspiration for this novel comes more from games than from novels: what directly inspired this book is Final Fantasy and Dungeons...

Eric was as shocked as everyone else when the apocalypse struck, but unlike his mother's movie, there were no chosen heroes destined to fight the beast hordes now overrunning the planet. Just people trying desperately to survive. Yet there was a glimmer of hope that humanity could hold on to. A chosen few really could level up in this brave new world, and embrace magic, adventure, and the potential for limitless power!

Nice read, no real romance
I liked the book enough to start the next one immediately (even with AI narration). And it was after starting and not finishing some others. I would not call it great, but it is good entertainment.
The biggest problem I had with the romance or rather the lack of it. Sure, the moment the love interest was mentioned I knew I would be her, but it reads more like arranged marriage than love. It is more about lust or lack of it and some "powers" being responsible for arranging it. In authors mind it was supposed to be love, but we see (or hear) no real evidence of it. No blushes, touches of hands, thoughts of the other you would expect from someone in love etc.
All in all I can recommend the book and I am going to continue the series, even despite the lack of real romance.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
