I Hate How Much I Love This, Maas

Revisado: 09-19-24

Maas....

I consider it a true honor that I am alive to experience the freshness and sheer genius that is your literature. It is visceral, plays my heart strings like some expert bard, and generally makes me lose sleep.

This novel is no exception.

I have cried as a grown man, cheered with a might huzzah, and felt enough goosebumps to fill a flock.

Thank you.

I won't bore you with details. That would delay you from reading this book. Read it now.

Thank me later.

WORTH THE WAIT

Revisado: 08-05-23

To say that this is one of the most satisfying series is the understatement of a lifetime. it fits the genre SO WELL, bends expectations, delivers glorious twists, and...hear me out... DOESN'T SOUND LIKE IT WAS WRITTEN BY A PREPUBESCENT CHILD!!!

Well done. This is amongst the highest echelons of this genre, hands down.

Pretty fantastic concept for a story with awesome world building

Revisado: 01-11-23

I really like the RPG world Cosimo Yap designed; the space adventure, the guilds, the intergalactic wars, the cool weapons and combat systems - it was all very compelling. I did find some of the characters a bit dry, like Katana, the Japanese sword mistress who uses … a Katana. That’s like calling a guy Gun who shoots pistols. Some stuff like that made it feel a little archetypal, but overall, I had a great listening experience and can’t wait to read book number 2!

Outstanding storytelling and fantastic storyteller

Revisado: 10-14-22

Shirtaloon has knocked another one out of the park. I’ve been enchanted by this whole story all summer long, listening while I do yardwork. It’s such a great adventure to get lost into, has great commentary on bravery, heroism, and sacrifice, and grips your heart. Can’t wait to read the next one.

HOT DAMN!

Revisado: 08-30-22

This book should be listed as one of LitRPG's finest. It is refreshingly different from the dozens of cookie-cutter stories out there in this beloved genre. The author has employed a divine mixture of familiar tropes that then take radical turns in the story, all while actually making you invest in the characters.

And let me tell you, the end's fight sequence is absolutely gorgeous---convicting, original, and motivational.

I entered this book with the hopes of a tide-me-over, and I got a 5-course meal instead.

THE BEST ONE YET!!!

Revisado: 08-17-22

I have absolutely loved this LitRPG series, but I gotta tell ya, this latest addition blew me out of the water. In particular, the final sequences where so much AWESOME occurred, I was left speechless. This was, by far, one of the most satisfying reads I've had in many a moon.

To the author: THANK YOU

To the narrator: you are a king amongst men

The Gateway Drug to LitRPG

Revisado: 09-22-21

As an avid writer and reader, I have developed a healthy skepticism when it comes to books within the genre that I love. As such, I am well aware of the reality that LitRPG, as a genre of literature, is in its infancy. This is why the Iron Prince is truly and unequivocally amongst the zenith of this new and incredible art form. It is incredibly fun and compelling, with powerful and intricate characters that ACTUALLY DEVELOP OVER THE COURSE OF THE BOOK.

Beyond this, the consistency of the world is spectacular, easy to comprehend, and does not involve the grocery-list-reading ubiquitous to this genre whenever the MC brings out their character sheet. Granted, it happens a bit, but it is quick and filled with anticipation.

If you are looking for an incredible all-around book that is clearly the seed of what is indubitably going to be an unforgettable series, this book is for you. As this is the case of true fangirls, my ONLY complaint is that I have to wait with those I have gathered on this worthy bandwagon for the next installation on a genre defining story.

An Unmistakeable Genius

Revisado: 01-10-21

So, I have unwittingly purchased every audible that this author has put out. I did so because each series, even in isolation, were stellar. As I listened to more and more, however, I finally (much to my own chagrin) realized the interconnectivity of so many of these stories.

Thus, when I say that this author has surpassed all standards for the most epic, intricate, and consistent world building in fictional literature, I say so with the utmost confidence.
