Book 1 really felt like a guy trying to figure out how to write for me. The writing gets better as well as the storyline. I almost dropped the series but they are such quick reads i decided to plow on. I skip all the stats stuff, who really cares.

The stat shit made it unlistenable to me. Reading it would be fine cause you could just skip it but it was terrible for audio. Think I got through book 2 or maybe 3 before I gave up on it. The character was just unrealistic and had zero personality or interesting thoughts. “I must get stronger no matter what, I love killing shit” was so boring. That and being almost godlike at early levels.

I can't imagine "reading" an audiobook. The very idea of it makes me shudder.

Having someone drone on and on about stats sounds like it would be brain melting.

I totally dig the "kill and get stronger" vibe. easy to zone out and not a big deal if you don't pay attention a bit. it does get long w/ the numbers, I'm sure reading it would be easy to skip a stats page. I'm on book 8 and plan to finish the series.
