About this listen
What cost survival in a post-apocalyptic world?
How much will you sacrifice to survive in a world turned game? When friends and family fall to monsters and aliens everyday, will you choose safety over freedom?
These are the questions the survivors in the Yukon must ask themselves. New alien masters arrive, offering safety from ever stronger monsters in return for their freedom and future potential.
Thrust into a position of power and influence by dint of his Levels, John must choose—not just for himself but Whitehorse itself. The price, however, might be more than he is willing to pay.
The Cost of Survival is Book 3 of the System Apocalypse, a LitRPG post-apocalyptic series that combines modern day urban life, science fiction and fantasy elements along with game mechanics.

Worthy of a binge listen
I have listened to all 9 books so far and enjoyed each one. Nick Podehl is one of the top narrators on Audible and it shows. Tao Wong does a great job of building John as a character. Like most book/move/tv series there are good and bad parts but overall the series has been enjoyable and I would recommend it. A good addition to the LitRPG options out there.

how does this manage to get better?
Holy hell this was like the greatest roller-coaster ride ever!
there's laughter, there's tears, there is a slight tense feeling of fear and the book almost reads itself, it's that hard to put down!
Nick continues to bring his a game and it's wonderful!

Brings opening arc to a satisfying conclusion
While this is not actually the last book in the series, there is definitely a feeling of this being the end of the first major arc of the series, both due to plot-lines covered throughout the book, but more particularly due to the way it ended. While I am glad that the series will be continuing, it is a nice approach from the author as it should allow the series to grow without getting bogged down by too much baggage later on.
As John and his friends have moved beyond the quick gains of earlier levels, the character levelling takes a bit of a back seat with the most prominent moment probably being his friend Mikito reaching level 50 and being able to upgrade her class, while some may not appreciate this change, it does make sense in the wider context of any kind of levelling system.
The balance in this book felt different too, the politics of the situation became a much bigger deal and was also the driving force behind a lot of the action set-pieces rather than them purely being about a question of survival like they were in the previous books.
The narrator delivers another strong performance with this book and his range of distinctive tones helps to nicely enhance the overall feel of the book too.
Overall, a strong end to the beginning of this series and it will be interesting to see where it goes next.

The Cost of Survival
This is a very good litrpg story I have in audio book. Looking forward to the next book. The main character doesn't become over powered like many series
