I don’t post much. I’m posting in hopes the author gets some momentum with the first installment and book 2 comes out sooner than later.
Folks I’m tired of OP MCs that get so OP so fast decisions on skills or stats truly don’t matter. I get it though, we’re not going to read a book about the guy or gal who locked themselves in their apartment when the apocalypse hit. We want to witness the best of best rise to the occasion.
Andy In The Apocalypse does a great job giving us a very strong MC who is clearly special, but has weaknesses that can get him killed. The book does a good job weaving in community and dealing with “mundane” issues (water/food) and giving them weight and importance. Andy is a bad ass trying his best. However, injuries do hurt him, and he’s one stupid mistake away from ending up dead. I look forward to his progression in the upcoming books. We got a lot of runway for meaningful growth.
Well done, just disappointed I can’t binge for the next couple weeks.
So, what to read now? I’ve finished or started and DNF most of the popular LITRPGs and Prog Fantasy’s
Books I’ve finished and liked a lot - DCC, Soldiers Life, Eight, Cradle, Beware of Chicken
