Interesting Isekai LitRPG with Sci-fi mixed in

First of all, Michael Kramer does a great job once more, so nothing to complain about with narration.

As for Skythief itself it's a rather interesting mixture of cyberpunk sci-fi and LitRGP fantasy elements. Basically it's a story of two cyborgs who get isekaid into a fantasy world that uses roleplaying game rules.

It's your typical anime stuff with rankings going from unranked to copper and then diamond and from there to specifically named ranks, instead of using levels. And of course just like any LitRPG protagonist these guys rank up faster than anyone in the history and defeat enemies that are ranks above them, nothing new there. Magic system seems also pretty basic and is about as soft as pancakes, but that's fine.

Characters are well written and the world seems interesting so I'm looking forward to rest of the series. Overall Skythief is better than average, but probably not something I'd hype up in parties.

Enjoyable

Great premise.
Good narration.
Intriguing story.
Looking forward to seeing where the story will go.
The storytelling does seem to gloss over some aspects at the start and the fact the 3 main characters become great friends in the matter of minutes, apart from that the story develops well and has some interesting storylines which hopefully will be developed in more depth.
As I said looking forward to the next instalment- so a positive from me.

Ash and shadow this was good.

Took me a little while to like the characters, but pleased I did, the story is excellent, with the book ending rollercoaster of battle action.
The characters develop as the story unfollows and the narration is clear and easy to listen and understandable.

Transferred to a new world of magic, our unlikely hero’s must train in order to survive, but come to attention of a goddess, agreeing to be her champion then train under her warden to be able to climb the great tree, but their training is cut short as they find themselves rushing to safe the city from Chaos champion, let battle commence!

Brilliant and funny LitRPG novel

Matthew Wolf has written a fantastically epic and funny novel, taking the first footsteps into a new world with great main characters. The story is not only entertaining but also has some great and if I do say so funny interactions, which combined lead to a brilliant book. Michael Kramer continues to provide his usual excellent narration bring to life the characters, and adds to the already great book with his interpretation of how each chi’s portrayed. All round excellence from both parties and cannot wait for a sequel. Well deserved 5 stars

Snark? World building? Wit? Epic narration? CHECK

Absolutely perfect. The ever talented Michael Kramer brings this book to life.

it also features an AI companion that feels like a cross between C3PO and Princess Donut, and if you're anything like me that's a very exciting combination.

The author is new to me but I'm off now to check out his other series.
