About this listen

He didn't plan on becoming a top champion of the world. Then, the System arrived...

Xavier Collins was sitting in class when the System integrated Earth into the Greater Universe, where countless vast kingdoms, empires, and collectives battle for domination.

He didn't know what choosing to be a Champion would entail. He just liked the sound of it.

But when he's teleported to the aptly-named Tower of Champions, he must face challenges against those who have known about the System since birth.

Chance may have gotten him a standing start, but now he has to earn the place he's stumbled into if he's going to save his world. Time to power up and fight for Earth!

Don't miss this new action-packed apocalyptic LitRPG by Todd Herzman, with levels, a detailed System, classes, skills, towers, loot, & everything you love about progression fantasy.

the pace was spot on, both with the writing but combined with John narrating it was really got damn good. was a fresh breeze that the mc included some friends from the start with his rise to power. 10/10 great listen

a great new mix with all the good ingredients

I’m definitely going to get book 2 as the title says I enjoyed it though the op mc trope was pulled on a bit too heavily which took away from it a little but still great overall!

Very good progressive story had a slow start but once he gets his class the story gets a lot faster looking forward to next installment

Tower Story

Note:

Mostly clean language.

Not too much gore.

Another OP protagonist but the author works very hard to make the case for it in Accidental Champion.

Much of the writing is spent on stats, numbers and levels. But this is to be expected in the LitRPG genre.

PROS

Pretty good world building. I'm curious to see what we'll learn about the system in book 2.

MC has a conscience. Definitely a plus. But he grapples with moral dilemmas due to how the system operates.

I like that he chose mage instead of a warrior which is popular for the genre.

CONS

The MC is too cocky. We're also constantly reminded of his power and strength. I know this is inevitable with OP characters but it got to a level that I found myself rolling my eyes. Like, we get it. You're the strongest guy. That said, the MC pays for his arrogance with some near death experiences early on.

We're told why MC wants to solo the tower floors but I don't think the author does a good job convincing the reader why its necessary. I only fully understood at maybe 60 chapters in. From a literary p.o.v I thought we'd have more chance to warm to Xavier's team mates if they were more involved.

For all the MC's desire to rush through the tower, the story itself is slow to get off the ground.

Author tends to repeat information that we already know.

A good read but not w/o some flaws...

like: well written, well executed.
dislike: just ongoing boring grinding with very little background supporting story

continual fighting, not much of a story
