Summary
Colonel James Raytak is about to die. The 93-year-old combat veteran is living his last days in a nursing home; his only hope for survival is an experimental Medpod life support system controlled by an artificial intelligence.
Co-developed by the world’s largest gaming company, Qualitranos the AI will also control the soon-to-be-released game Limitless Lands. Without its creator’s knowledge, the AI decides the best course of treatment is to import its patient’s consciousness directly into the game.
Colonel Raytak must dust off his military training and lead his virtual troops in a fight to repair his broken body and mind while exploring the Limitless Lands.

Haha so headings are definitely not optional
I enjoyed listening to this audiobook and will likely get the next book in the series some time in the future. I enjoyed listening to the different perspective that the author presented in the book and will look into if there are any other audiobooks or books written by the author.

Nice difference style to the LITRPG seen
I really did like this book kinda a fresh take on the LitRPG. It’s more like a strategy RPG like the Banner lord video game,
it's a nice build to power book, With a decent enough plot to gibe the whole story some sort of meaning however there is no real stake at all in this book. Because they really are just in a Video game. For the MC he's really just killing time and doing what made him pround in his really life so it's kinda wholesome in a weird way. I'm in the army my self so i get where the book is coming from a lot of the time.
PS. Where’s the para’s or airborne as the yanks call them.

I was sceptical about it all
... but man was I supposed by both the story and the narration. I would recommend this to anyone interested in a soldier's side of navigation through VR Games unlike the normal "gamer kid" that are typically the main character.

Very nice backstoried litrpg with a great narrator
The story is written in a "near-future" setting, making the "limitless lands" a first ever AI controlled MMORPG.
The main character being a combat veteran in a world that no longer has any who is going through medical trials supported by the AI, that integrates his recovery in the game.
It's a good setting, with enough background and "realism" to make for an engaging story.
Narration is great, characters have different accents that separate them and the storyteller voicing is clear with good pace.
All in all, this is a recommended Listen and I've personally already started book 2.

My first forey into litRPG.
Disclaimer: I was gifted a copy of the audio books by Jack Voraces in exchange for a review. However, no strings were attached to the gift and this review is what I genuinely feel about the first book. Note that this appeared on reddit first.
I never read any litRPG before and thus jumped at the opportunity to get this audio book. I like DIE (by Kieron Gillen) and the Assassin Creed games outside of the meta plot, so I thought I might enjoy this. Sadly, I did not.
The book focuses mostly on the meta games rules of the Limitless Lands game and how the main character plays the game, from buffs to interactions with trolls (the player kind, not the monster kind). There is character creation, PvP arena duels, and equipment upgrades, and minmaxing. The world itself is by design a "classic fantasy one" with a solid Roman Empire feel to it and a classical array of orcs, goblins, spiders, etc… It is mostly set up to allow "high adventure" to take place. This is where the book lost me: these are the things I enjoy least from the computer RPG genre. Your mileage might vary, you if you enjoy those aspects, then the book should be right for you.
While I do not like either soccer or opera, I am able to judge what is a good performance and what is not. This is a good book and I genuinely believe you should give it a go. The main character's class (Commander, think RTS more than RPG) is a great idea. It allows for more tactical decisions, getting right into unit fighting (the real strong point of the Roman Army), and gives the plot a direction since "you cannot ignore quests given by your faction leaders". The RTS mixed within an RPG is really interesting and should make for fun progression of the character and story. The cyberpunk meta plot is what hooked me the most and I would love to see it expended. The characters are great and most of the NPCs are more likeable than the real players in the game.
The production value of the audio book is spectacular. It flirts with being a radio play with sound effects and added effects to Jack Voraces' voice. He does a great job of making the characters come to live and his performance is great all the way through, making me feel for the main's character (first person point of view) struggles both in and out of the game world.
Finally, I would like to thank Jack Voraces for giving me the opportunity of reading the book.
