Book 2 is noticeably better than the first.
book 1 and 2 are definitely worth the read.
I didn't know, new book was coming out so soon. I've not long read the short story I think it's call hour of pain or something like that.
The short story is nice!If you haven't read it yet, he also has a short story in the collection of stories named You're in Game! It's about the test of the zombie shaman girl
Ooh I've read the zombie story too Mark, good memory!
I've not read the zombie one. I will have to have a look at it. Thanks for the information.
When is the new books going to be avilable. After reading the last book i was very depressed , then i read that short story. That made me happy. Anyway it is one hell of a cliffhanger.
If only I could read Russian lol, I would of just brought the original ones and then I wouldn't have to wait.
Have u guyz read the Dark paladin series? Is it any good?

Between the author rushing to finish the story on the 5th book because he thought he had a contract for 5 books (meaning book 5 was supposed to be the ending of the series) and then writing book 6 and 7 (actually contracted number of books) to appease the backlash after book 5 with the short story, the series is a testament to the hubris of an author.
Please don't forget that whatever boogieman group he came up with in the short story to justify what took place doesn't appear at any other point in the story before.

the first two books however are pretty good.

One of my favourites is Overlord series. It was one of the first LitRPG I read.
Hmm, I have to get that one too, loved the series

The overlord. I still have to get log Horizon too if that's translated
Try the devil is a part timer, it's seriously good and has a similar vibe to overlord but lighter.

You like litRPG and light novels and Infinite Dendrogram was not on the shelf (I added them)? ;) Mind you, that series is not like Overlord and is true litRPG in the sense that it is set in a full immersive RPG.
Personally I am not a big fan of the Russian litRPG. I like it, but I feel that at times it is a bit too dark for my taste. I also find it telling how nasty PvP tends to be in their stories and how often the protagonist is a lone wolf fighting against guilds or the game company.
Now 17 days to bridge, can't wait...
Picked up Eden's gate, anyone read it yet?
