About this listen
Adrian was on his way to work when he was summoned to another world.
A world of magic and monsters, where he finds himself more alive than he has ever been on Earth. But also, where death awaits him in any corner, and he must become stronger.
But at first, before he can even fight, he has to run, because he is too weak to win a battle against even the weakest monster. And that is why he invests all of his Essence Points into his Agility. Which eventually gives him the potential to overcome almost all his enemies— with the small caveat that he does not get hit, of course.
His immense speed also proves useful for him because it allows him to run away from the evil Dryadilis Empire that is hunting him down: powerful elves who want to take over the world. And even though it seems like he was summoned to defeat Empress Shiavarathna to save humankind, that was not why he was summoned. Instead, he was brought to this world by the mysterious Dark Wizard for reasons that are kept unknown.
And as Adrian finds shelter in the City of Dorn to level up and grow stronger in safety, he shall unravel the mystery as to why he was summoned in the first place.
Check out this isekai litrpg with an OP MC that is perfect for fans of The Primal Hunter, Defiance of the Fall, and He Who Fights With Monsters!

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

There's no place like home for the holidays ... especially for Lesley Carver. Life in the big city just wasn't her jam and now she's back in Hickory Falls, working at the family diner and helping her mom after she took a tumble. Lesley longs to build a life here, working at the cafe, selling her handmade ornaments and ... er, apparently reviving her high school crush on her best friend’s older brother. Only one problem, her mom wants her to leave Hickory Falls far behind.

My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

The Great Ones arrived on Earth and conquered us with little bloodshed. They collected our strongest warriors and shipped them off to a world called Hadran—a one-of-a-kind artificial planet, a cosmic gladiatorial arena where the slave races engage in blood sports for the Great Ones' entertainment. But Earth has lost the last of its real champions and now risks losing its candidate status. If that happens, it will become less than a slave colony.

Story
Arktania is a virtual game with a steampunk style. It's a place where magic spells, enchanted artifacts, steam-powered machines, firearms, and mechanical golems are a part of everyday life. Gamer Andrew Falk begins his journey in a small village on the border of Orcish territory. The locals are the keepers of many secrets, but their behavior is too realistic for characters in a game; so realistic, in fact, that Andrew starts to treat them as if they were real people.

Story
My life was ordinary, but never boring. That is, until a colossal tower landed smack-dab in the middle of the city. What should have followed was mass panic and hysteria, but I never got to that part. Why? Simple. I was taken along with 99,999 other people from Earth and dropped onto an unknown world. Strange beings appeared before us—floating, featureless figures that call themselves demi-gods. They ruled this place, this fantastical world called Gaea. The reason why they took us? We'd supposedly been selected to show that Earth was worth saving from an upcoming cataclysmic event.

Angus Bjornson only ever wanted to do one thing: to continue crafting exquisite weapons and pieces of armor for his loyal customers. Unfortunately, after one accident too many that leaves the old blacksmith completely disabled, it would seem he has no other choice but to hang up his hammer.

I actually enjoyed it
Not the best book (AI voiced) but I couldn't stop listening either, the story kept moving and while I enjoy litrpg in general, this author managed to do better than most in avoiding "over-numbering everything" and still keep the game aspect of litrpg.
Overall it had a solid story and character development and I look forward to the next one.

I didn't expect virtual voice to be so good
The virtual voice was fairly entertaining. It was pretty straightforward. You almost couldn't tell that it wasn't a human voice, except for on a few occasions, when it would pause, or while it was doing numbers, it would skip or speed through a little, but beyond that, her story was still engaging and I enjoyed. It from first to last

Great story, virtual voice actor
I like the story. virtual voice actor said oops and the story seemed to skip many times. It pronounced things strangely. I think that some pronounce corrections were put in because it would pause and then play something specific to this book, sort of like a bank phone line.

Needs a narrator.
Story was awesome, the digital narrator has odd inflections, and pronunciations, which can throw you out of the story, but aside from that, great story and hope for more

like the story
the story was good. I think this could have been a great book if it had a good narrator, but the ai voice had some wierd cadence issues as well as pronunciation issues with words that could be said more than 1 way that charges it's meaning (i.e. read, read). hope the next one has a good narrator because I want this book to thrive

first time trying Ai
the story was good. I had a hard time judging how the character leved up with each kill. I liked the passing but I feel the Ai could capture it as having a person read it. the air also messed upon words quite a few times and especially when it came to saying numbers after 10 and ends with 5. 15, 25, 35 and so on. it was funny a fist but gets old fast

Did I miss how he started a fire? I do enjoy that the main character is pragmatic.
