Nic has been Selected.

Chosen to leave his own body behind and become a monster.

Chosen to live or die on his own wits. His own strengths.

He'll adventure out into a new realm as a footsoldier for the System's relentless integration of new worlds. Fighting to break the natives into submission.

But Nic has never loved the System, or cared for his home planet, a depleted husk of a world that the System forgot long ago. With blue skies overhead and green forest to the horizons, he might just fall in love with this strange planet named Earth...

That would leave him with few friends and a thousand enemies. That would leave him clawing, biting, scratching to survive.

Don't miss the start of an action-packed LitRPG Apocalypse Series from the invader's perspective. A monster evolution story with elements of cultivation, base-building, ally-recruitment, a detailed System, power progression, and all the things readers of LitRPG have come to love.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cultivation LitRPG done right!
Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2023

This book is a cut or three above anything of its type that I've read. It has the elements you'd expect from the jacket-- a system, cultivation, essence, magic pills, grudges, dungeons, artifacts, ancient legacies, bloodlines, meditation, mystic understanding, cultivation techniques... But the author gives those things a new, incredibly entertaining life.

At least part of that life comes from the fact that the entire universe is alive and growing. All of the tropes I listed earlier are not just "the way things are." Rather, they have histories and origins independent of each other-- and interactions with each other.

Another part of what makes the book so fun is that the author really understands action sequences. Combats are generally meaningful, with all sides making plans and demonstrating what makes them unique. The fights have roots stretching both forwards and backwards in time. Nobody involved, protagonist included, is omniscient or omnipotent.

There are definitely some places where it's pretty clear this was originally an episodic serial (a number of chapters begin with a recap of what happened in the last chapter, for instance). But overall I loved this book and have already downloaded the sequel!

I enjoyed this immensely. Fun, exciting, emotional, with an MC I REALLY like, some villains I REALLY don’t like, all in an inventive universe. Not what you’d call deep, but so much better than some crappy wish-fulfillment like so many cultivation novels are. This is LitRPG done right.

This system is extremely complex, and I feel like I only have the tiniest glimpse of a massive corruption. Nic is fascinating. I love that he is an axolotl, and all the references to different beings cuteness is funny. I honestly hope at this point that he can surpass the system gods and bring some empathy to the system. Still, it was a fun read.

Pros
+A fairly unique world built by the author
+A pretty new perspective for a system-integration-apocalypse story
+The combat and dialogue are both well written, and the main character has an understandable personal code of morality/honor/conduct

Cons:
-the pacing seems odd. The language used to span a gap of time will make you think a long time has passed, when less than a day actually passed.
-some parts of this world are not tracked out explained well -- his cultivation map does not appear in the last quarter of the book, it's not always clear how many, or what, quests he has, etc
-there is a very real risk that the primary conflict of this series will get very convoluted.

So the whole axolotl thing admittedly made me a little skeptical, but man this was a surprisingly good book! Nic is full of edge at the system and the at he’s been continually screwed over, and the new world is his best shot to get ahead. I liked how much he struggles throughout the book, while also managing to be a heck of a fighter. The evolution options that were offered weren’t my favorite because of the limited nature of them, but they’re still cool and I’ll look forward to more!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as advertised
Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2022

This book is difficult to review. There are things i liked and disliked about the work. I would give it an overall score:

6.5/10

First off the books blurb states that the whole concept is a system apocalypse as the invader. This lasts for three chapters then it turns into a generic system apocalypse cultivation story. I have read many entries into this genre and one of the consistent factors is the invaders in the system apocalypse want to destroy the inhabitants. Although monsters can grow in strength, the whole system is designed to have them be in conflict with the native inhabitants of planets. Again what this book promises in the first chapter and the description of the book falls apart after only a couple of chapters.

The MC easily works with humans inhabitants and is himself pitted against invaders.

If you make a promise at the beginning of a book then you need to accomplish that promise or the reading experience is ruined.

This book also shares many of the shortcoming of online stories which are posted semi weekly. Every three chapters or so it reads as if the author is writing a completely different story. Even in some chapters it states that "only naturally gifted warriors can succeed, no matter how much you practice you will never stand with the gifted" then a couple of paragraphs later it states that "even novices of combat can accomplish great things through practice and stand among the gifted". These two statements are completely opposed to each other. The author does this constantly in their world building like every couple of paragraphs or chapters they forget what they wrote and do or say something completely contradictory to what has happened before.

This book is also a "LUCK CULTIVATION story". This means that the MC has no challenges, trips and falls finding priceless resources and really is never challenged. If the author states that the MC is wounded yet he goes through everything like a sickle through wheat that idea isn't reflected in the described actions. Many readers, including myself, may not find this obscenely easy MC journey very enjoyable to read.

The technical writing is very good with grammar and sentence structure. I never had a problem understanding what the author was describing, my issue was the author couldn't seem to find a consistent narrative or world to build.

I wanted what the description of the book described for the story and i found a vanilla generic cultivation and system apocalypse story. This MC could be a human from Earth and nothing in the story would need to be changed other than his physical description.

Because the technical writing was so well done it made many of the narrative, character development, and other problems much more subtle. A running theme in cultivation books is to rise up in strength and challenge the heavens. That theme was very poorly executed in this book. Sadly it would have worked much better had the author just stuck to the story in the description rather than making the MC just another human like native of the world.

I am torn on looking into the second book of the series. This feels like a Royal Road net book where the author only listens to feedback that tells him everything he does smells like roses and refuses to grow or improve in his writing. Many of the shortfalls could be easily fixed in a second book but it would take changes.

In the end this book is a very generic system apocalypse story without any of the wrinkles promised in the description. There will be generic town building in the second book. There is nothing new or interesting in this story sadly. I am disappointed in what the book could have been if the author had stuck to the themes promised in the description.

Easy to digest concepts, a slow build that makes sure you know what is going on without dragging it's feet. I originally got this book on audio book and had to start the second as soon as I could. I ended up buying a physical copy of both books because I want the set and Nodragons deserves it!

This is an amazing take on the System Apocalypse genre, from the point of view of an invader/"monster", the power system is complete, the characters are well made and the multiple ways to attain power are each extremely interesting, I'd recommend this any day.

The setting is interesting. The story is a tad too long for its own pace. The third quarter of the book is a bit of a trudge. The finale is good though and wraps up the story nicely. The writing is good but would be better if the text was trimmed down a bit to lose 10 to 15% of its wordiness. I ll check book2 to see how it gets better

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 21, 2023

I have very mixed feelings about this book. I feel that the world that the author build is very interesting and has a lot of potential. However, the whole book was just constant non stop action, after 50th battle it just became annoying. I finished the book because I was hooked but I don't think I will read the second one. Don't recommend if you want a more balanced read with a better character development
