The emperor is doing everything he can to impede the upstart clan’s growth. A mysterious wizard following Bashorg is filling Brown Bear lands with terrifying demons. And then there’s the academy and final exams. With so much to do, giving up would be the logical move, only Leg Ondo isn’t one to throw up his hands when the going gets rough.

His bestselling series combines fiction and video games, telling the story of Shaman and his friends stuck in the ruthless reality of Barliona. He used his more than ten years' experience as an ERP implementation project manager to approach his writing in a well-organized manner, working to a strict schedule, a set of deadlines and even a budget.

Just a great gosh-darned series

Not gonna lie: Parts of this book really irked me. I really love the overpowered MC's, and when hardships creep up I get annoyed and I want to put down the book, but what's a story without adversity. And the MC always comes out on top in the end, and what an end this was. Looking forward to more from one of my favorite Russian LitRPG greats.

I received a review copy of this book.
Building on the previous books in the series, this one continues the story, and while the story is a wild one, it's amusing that the main character has very little control over events, and yet, there's still so much happening it seems to advance the story in several directions at once. We find out all kinds of things about the world itself, discover what the main character is becoming, and even see an epic battle among powers most folks didn't even know existed (well, sort of).
Overall, it's a nice addition to the series, and based on the ending, our main character has a whole lot more in store for himself, so it's time to read the next one to see what happens.

Mage cultists, demons and dragons are trying to destroy the world. Well everybody needs a hobby ;-). The book is about flying chairs, a forced hero with an incorporated crown, mass production, recycling, corporate espionage, the fight for air supremacy and a hero succeeding only due legendary plot armor.

Good Series

This story of a high mage lizard person being reborn in a young lazy chief’s son was a very interesting read. The only problem I have is with demon worshiping people. If demons devour everything, what go those people think is going to happen to them?

great movement in MC and the story

The MC finally battles (indirectly) the bigger enemy’s. There is a significant grown in the MC’s power and the end is satisfying. Crafting aspect is added to the MC which is great. Looking forward to Book 4

marathon

It’s taken me 4 days to get through book 1 to book 3. It’s been worth every second. I can’t believe I stumble across such an amazing series. My only complaint is Leg constantly stumbling from problem to problem with almost no back up.

This was fun.

It was nice to see how the protagonist gained in power and grew as a being.

I already have book four, so I will get to that someday (have a few I want to get through first).

Lost 2 stars for NOT writing a Recap.

I think every reader needs to start doing this to force authors to write a quick Recap chapter, which readers can skip if they remember, and those who don't won't stop reading the series.
