The Connected System has come to Earth, bringing with it the apocalypse...


In an instant, life as it was known is gone, replaced by a System called The Connection. It doesn't come quietly as earthquakes rock the planet, the chosen survivors falling unconscious as the Connection takes their bodies and Adapts them.

Lochlan Brady and his family were on their way home from a camping weekend when the Connection appears. He awakens with a new Adapted body, finding his wife missing. Now Loch must survive and thrive in this new world with his two teenage daughters, Harper and Piper. All Loch wants to do is protect his daughters and find his wife.

A chance encounter with creatures straight out of myth will force the family to quickly confront the reality of their new lives, the changed world, and give Loch a jump in power. But with that power will come responsibility and more danger.

Along with the attention of some of the most powerful beings in The Connected System.

Don't miss the start of this epic LitRPG Apocalypse series from the bestselling author behind Sky Realms Online. This action-packed System invasion series features a father forced to survive this new world while also protecting and building a new home for his family.

It's perfect for fans of Defiance of the Fall, Life in Exile, and Apocalypse: Generic System. Grab your copy today!

Looking forward to this series. I've already preordered book 2. The family is friendly. I think they catch on a little too quick, but still good. The one thing I really have trouble with is they dad not making time too ask questions. As a Father, I would have made time and asked way more questions of their Fairy guide.

The story was fantastic and fun. Lots of. action and nail biting. As a father to three girls, I totally get this character. I really enjoyed it, but some additional editing for typos would make it even better

Really liked this LITRPG with a family as the main characters. Great system, skills, plot, pacing. Needs a bit of editing, a few missing words, letters, etc... but did not detract. Excited there's already two more scheduled and out this year. Great price, too.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Filler Novel
Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2024

Grammatical errors and pacing hindering a really interesting story.

Aside from an obvious '/' at the start of a paragraph, the author mostly struggles with passive and active voice. It led me to mentally skip over certain sentences and feelings even in the middle of fights. Very frustrating and may come across as slow-paced or unthought out. Weird mentions of previous Army training throughout the novel without really applying any of the knowledge the MC might know from it.

The apocalypse in this case is an outside system that removes a good portion of humanity to be replaced by new humanity. Hints at time skips and various races rush into the new "Connected" Earth and a father fights alongside his teenage daughters to survive.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book overall
Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2024

Like I said, good book overall. The book was well written and had a good plot.

Issue for me is that MC is kind of made out to be a bit slow mentally sometimes, with his inner monologs taking so long it puts his family in danger multiple times. Also, if you were given a way to know what is going on, and what you needed to do to survive, wouldn't take the time to do it? Not our MC, he ignores it and just keep moving on....

I don't want to spoil anything, and maybe audible is making it worse by how he is narrating, not sure.

Edit: I come to realize that the writer likes to explain how everyone is feeling and what is going on in their heads, also does a lot of small flashbacks in their heads. To me this is what was annoying, and i felt made the story slow down a bit.

Another post apocalypse RPG story, with a father and two teenage daughters having to adjust to a system type world with fighting challenges to grow. Separated from their mother, they have to meet many challenges simply to survive and upgrade. Good world building, sympathetic MC, if a little self focused. I m looking forward to see where the story goes in the next book, recommended for those who enjoy RPG.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good plot, pacing, and characterisation, but overly long internal dialogues
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 18, 2024
Verified Purchase
The cast of main characters is a refreshing take on the usual MCs we see with no family responsibilities. The plot is driven by a classic system apocalypse narrative, with some unique elements. Overall, an enjoyable light read, but detracted somewhat by overly long internal dialogues that do nothing to advance the plot and are often repetitive, so fail to advance the character depth. Far better to show us the characters' internal decisions, rather than telling us.
