About this listen

Something went wrong. Something went very wrong….

Against his will, Thaden was transported elsewhere in a big flash of light along with millions of other Humans from Earth, to a place where they would train to become Contenders in a whole new world. Unfortunately for him, something occurred during his transference into the “Training” program, and he was ejected from the whole training process and sent into the open mouth of an active volcano for bodily disposal.

Through a miraculous and horrifying series of events, Thaden managed to survive, only to find himself alone in the middle of a dungeon with no clothes, no weapons, and no way to defend himself. Worst of all, the strange new Assimilation System automatically assigned a Class to him without his knowledge, which ended up sticking him with a Support-based Class that has absolutely no offensive capabilities. As an Assistant Healer, none of his spells did any damage and he couldn’t even pick up a weapon to defend himself if he wanted to!

But all hope isn’t lost, as Thaden quickly learns something unique about himself that might just allow him to survive long enough to escape the dungeon. Sure, all his new magical spells might be focused on healing and protection, but what does it mean when he seemingly won’t ever run out of Mana…?

This story contains an overpowered MC with a normally non-combat Class, LitRPG progression mechanics and stats, and isekai/portal fantasy elements. Contains no sexual content or harems.

There is a decent story here, but the constant explanations, followed by the exact same explanation (just worded differently) needs to be edited out. At least for the audio version.
It absolutely grind the flow of the story to a halt.

Good idea for a story.

Jonathan Brooks is more well known for his dungeon core books but he has pull this one off very well

Miles Meili did a good job narrating this but i only gave his performance 4 stars as i personally didn't think his voice fit the MC.

Looking forward to book 2

A fresh take on the genre, Interesting world building and an engaging storyline, I've always enjoyed the "glitched" type of story, so I found this book very entertaining. Already looking forward to the next one!

Really enjoyed this book. Both the story and the narration are excellent. Special call out for a great approach to having a somewhat OP character that still doesn’t get everything they’d wish for. Double points for having a Healer class MC do that! Some great humour that causes laugh out loud moments. Heartily recommended!

Absolutely awesome !

As a gamer I have always liked healers but somehow they are never the main characters. Like the defenders in football never seem to be the stars. Because even though you have to survive to grow in a LITRPG world, you also have to kill to grow. So we sometimes have mixed classes. But here we have a pure healer that is surviving after finding himself in a new world. He has no information and has a very bad start. But circumstances give him strong OP elements, but even though he is OP as a healer, it gives us a fresh view on an OP character. Since he is a pure healer it is difficult to survive even while being an OP healer.
This book kept me engaged so I listened to it in a day and it also sets the scene for the future.
I like how different this authors books are but still have that certain element that keeps me engaged. I love the narrator, and feel that he adds a lot to the story. But I should note that I have ADHD and listen to audiobooks at different speed depending on my brains activity. Usually speed 1.3, but when getting calm for sleep I go to 0.95. And this author works at every speed.

Great start

I listened to this because I have been enjoying the authors fusion book series. I also enjoyed this one very much. if I had one criticism it would be that the book spends a bit too much time spelling out skills and stats, but the story overall is interesting enough that that doesn't matter.

Overall good, pretty standard litrpg

Loved the story mostly, the narrator takes some getting used too, well for me. I would recommend download and give it a go.

Very good but
