The Feedback Loop #1-4

The Feedback Loop Omnibus, Volume 1

Rate this book
Quantum Hughes doesn't know how long he's been trapped in a cyber noir world known as The Loop.

For each day that passes, Quantum adds an item to his inventory list, hoping that he'll one day be free.

Has it really been nearly 550 days? Has he gone mad? Will Quantum ever be free?

A surprise message from the real world sparks a series of events that Quantum could never have never imagined. Suddenly, he's facing off against killer invaders, fighting steam-powered robots, going toe-to-toe with dagger-wielding goblins, visiting floating realms, and even taming a mirrored dragon.

Through Quantum's trademark snark, his near bottomless inventory list of items (example: item 287, King Tut's dagger made from a meteorite; item 327, a Viking helmet with horns), there's no telling what he will do next, or how far Quantum will go to level up and solve a challenge.

About the series: Explore vast and unique fantasy MMORPG worlds in one of the original isekai GameLit series published between 2015-2018. The Feedback Loop is a portal fantasy series by Harmon Cooper, Amazon best-selling author of Pilgrim, Cowboy Necromancer, and Monster Hunt NYC. Fans of role playing games and everything from classic noir to high fantasy and fast-paced gamer action will love this new collection. Watched Boss Battle? You'll dig this. A fan of Sin City, Sword Art Online, The Punisher, Free Guy, or Ready Player One? This will scratch that itch.

Quantum Hughes has always been one of narrator Jeff Hays' most beloved character voices. Volume 1 features Jeff's re-recording of the book that started it all. This new version captures a more developed Quantum voice, and takes advantage of better gear and mastering. Soundbooth Theater has also remastered Books 2 and 3, and recorded a bonus Feedback Loop short story and Quantum's inventory list, so even longtime fans will have a reason to pick this improved version up.

Grab it, and dive into The Loop!

Where has this series been all my life?!

Wow, this one by Harmon Cooper is a LitRPG/GameLit hidden gem! Jeff Hayes is as always incredible with the narration.

Full of grit, humor and snark, this book has it all. Plus a great and engaging story with badass characters (Sorry Quantum, Morning Assassin may be my favorite.) and all of the gaming elements that make this genre my favorite.

Run, don't walk, to the Kindle Store or Audible and add this one to your inventory! You won't regret it. :)

Really great series (books 1-4 of 8 books)

Superb adventure through the reasonably twisted mind of Quantum Hughes. Each book is essentially a mini-arc that ties into a much larger arc. The characters are fairly fleshed out. The audiobook copy is even better to listen to as you read along. I'm putting my Haptic Suit back on and Diving into Volume 2 now!

A fun story.

Only character I know that takes after my heart in that he keeps everything. I mean you never know when you might need a boat with a whole in it or a dead rat. I mean Quantum has you covered. Overall this story made me laugh as the high jinks ensud.

Excellent

Quantum has got spunk. He is a heavy drinking and eating man. I would be really sad to live in his world, though. The government is watching what we eat to keep us healthy, it is good on one side, but I would still hate it too.
