    The author creates a character with a strong will power, but who still has his flaws and weaknesses, and who isn't afraid to be a ass or apologize when he realised he was an ass.
    The characters are well written and that lets me suspend disbelief and put myself in the characters shoes. Well done.

    I might just have a soft spot for cynics, but I enjoy the main character's personality. I haven't formed much of an opinion on the side characters, yet, but so far so good. The world building stands out to me, so I look forward to more of that as well.

    New Readers! Read it! It’s honestly so great. Rob is hilarious, the fighting is well fleshed-out. The grass is purple on the other side and the gods are all knowing, all powerful and all assholes. It’s gonna be the time of your life.
    This is it. The book is done. A key part of my reading experience on RoyalRoad is about to be gone. And it was the best damn decision I ever made to start and to keep reading until the end.
    This book is an easy 5 stars, an easy 10 out of 10. The style is done from third person perspective. Important characters occasionally get there time in the sun, but it’s mostly told from Rob’s perspctive, our MC, with an almost spin-off happening midway showing Jason’s, the best friend, perspective on life back on earth. The grammar is great, with some allowance given for text truncation, which is interesting to see in a novel.
    The background of characters, reasoning of behaviour and interactions between all the key players really feels real and makes you appreciate each one. The balance of loss and tragedy with resolution and new friends is a razor thin one, and insanity is definitely in the air, with the multicoloured carpet matching the drapes, so to speak.
    I should write this a little better but I’m still in my feelings a bit. Great book. Please read. Thank you for writing this excellent piece of work.

    Great story, great characters, great integration of litrpg stats without making them overwhelming. Overall an excellent read. Got the book on Kindle Unlimited and ripped through it in a day.
    The story is exciting, well paced, and emotionally touching at times. Definitely worth adding to your follow list.
    The story is about the MC being sucked into another world through a portal after shoving his friend out of the way and saving him from the same fate. He is then trapped in another world, an outcast in a world where all the humans are dead (for story reasons) and he has to deal with the intense hatred of pretty much everyone he will ever meet... Classic weak to strong with clear cheat skills that come with drawbacks, and well balanced strength progression. No overpowered MC shenanigans, all victories are earned with blood.
    The story has a system overlay with stats, skills, talents etc that advance in fun ways. Big bads, political intrigue, overarching plots, foreshadowing galore. Lots to look forward to and I hope the story goes on well past where I have read up to! (which is the first published book so the first 38 chapters I think).

    (I read this on SB, where it's fairly farther ahead)
    Rob feels like a person, and as such, it is very easy to relate to him. He doesn't want to use any sort of skill or ability that would alter his mind, which is something I relate to on a decent level. He cares for his friends and is willing to suffer injustices for them.
    The other characters also feel like real people.
    The story flows well, not too many mistakes in spelling. The storyline is interesting, and the history of the world Rob finds himself in is very intriguing.

    Well written, great balance of action and character development. Humorous without being a farce.
    Honestly really enjoying this a lot. There is lots of lore to be revealed, a relatable maini character, and possible love interests as waiting to be explored. I found the story on Reddit but I am glad I checked out this page so I can get my fix faster.

    An Outcast in Another World (Subtitle: Is 'Insanity' a racial trait?) is a well-written LITRPG following Rob, a human transported to a fantasy world.  This world has stats and classes and levels, and has utterly murdered all of mankind not long ago.  Complete genocidal level extinction.
    Rob has to start at the very beginning: level 1.  He's lost in a forest, beset by monsters, beset by infected monsters, and hunted by elves.  I could go on, but you should really just read this for yourself.  I planned to read the first ten chapters and just could stop.
    PROs: Well written.  Strongly sympathetic character  Great scene-setting, world-building, dialogue, and characterization.  It's very, very easy to get immersed in this story.  Very much a weak to strong progression novel - with a catch.  A very good catch, that adds multiple complexities to the storyline.
    CONs: Some undeclared random POV shifts in chapters, and some minor voice concerns - nothing that I haven't seen in published novels available on Amazon.  In fact, those two things are a lot less egregious than the errors I've seen multiple KU books be guilty of.
    This novel jumped to the top of the trending list the moment it was able to do so--that should tell you something.  It should tell you it's worth reading and checking out.   Highly recommended.  But don't take my word for it, read for yourself.

    other mcs on this site dont make a lick of sense and are only intrested in gaining levels by any means necessary so its nice to see a MC refuse to do certant things even if it means losing out on levels. plus its clear to me the the author put alot of work into his system because all the numbers make sense

    This story was nothing monumental for me, but everything it tried to do it did near-perfectly. I read the first volume in one sitting!
    Highly recommended. The characters are all written fabulously, the power system isn't overbearing, and the plot has me wanting to know what comes next every chapter!
