Description

In a time before the existence of the present, the gods decided to create a plane of existence where all their creations could exist in the same place. In it, all would be fair, and all gaps between races and technological advancements could be crossed with a single system that the gods had created. Every year, the gods would choose a new race to put in their land, and in this new group of beautifully unlucky people, Alen, his friends, and a few people from Earth have finally met their turn to be tossed into the playground of the gods.

Unfortunately though, Alen was thrust into a forest of corpse-eating bears and horribly smelly undead on his first day, one of the many danger-zones of the continent the gods had chosen to throw them in. It would be easy to say that he simply died within the first day, or that he'd starved to death or whatever, but let's be honest...

That story would be no fun to tell, yes?

(Re-write of my first fiction with the same name.)

    So, it's a really cool story with an incredible MC and his friends. But it's too fucking sad that there's is only such small amount of chapters and it's dead, without any chances to be alive somewhere again. For someone who wanna try it after those words - you're welcome, it will be short, but awesome journey with this gay-racist-clown MC xd

    Okay this is the price I pay for reading stories when the author is just starting.  If the story is awesome and this one is, then I run out of chapters and then I'm sad.  So dang you author for making me sad.  Oh and thankyou for writing something awesome, and I look forward to reading the rest of it.
    The grammar, and writing style are at the level of someone who should be publishing(by the way if you do publish this when done I will reread it in kindle format.)
    The story draws you in, and the it isn't too much of a cliche which in this genre can be a problem.
    The voice of the main character is also quite good, I also like tha the system given that this is LitRPG is a bit more organic.

    Found this story yesterday and read all 11 chapters in a couple sittings.  The MC isn't creepy like most people in necromancer stories and system doesn't hold your hand.
    Great story so far I'm looking forward to more.

    This novel is amazing I just stumbled upon it but it was amazing, the Mc is well built he uses humour(terrible jokes) to cope with being in a new world, BUT he can still function and is smart enough to build his own skills and use his class properly, this is what sets this novel up to be good, cause alot of other novels either have the Mc being emotional and a brat for 3 book long tantrums and it's annoying, or they are a god and throw a tantrum because there class seems crappy and it's slight hard or confusing to use. Other then that rant about how the Mc is well put together, the side characters are really well done you can really get attached and just imagine having a friend group like them( I can especially cause I did have one) also the world building is a nice and helpful thing for creating a mental image, now the last point the main character actually has setbacks i so love this cause it gets really annoying if the Mc doesn't have to use his head or can't come up with simple traps to solve problems. 5 out of 5 stars

    I read up to Book 3 Chaper 10 and have not read the original novel of the same name. So far this story is fantastic and really at a level where it could be a published work.
    Style: The story flows fantastically, and I felt like as soon as I started that there was suddenly no more left to read. Also a couple of hours seems to have disappeared. The descriptions are good and the narration is very enjoyable.
    Grammar: Not too good at finding errors normally, but I really can't recall finding even a single error yet. No issues here.
    Story: The story is engrossing and one of the better transported to another world litrpg I've read. The world seems huge and the leveling system seems to play less of a role here opposed to skills. Hopefully the MC gets to see more of the world soon. The main character doesn't appear to be overpowered and really has been almost killed numerous times already. This along with the good pacing keeps the story entertaining and thrilling. No clear antagonist as of yet beyond 'trying to not die', but that's not really a bad thing. One of my favorite books has no antagonist and is basically about the MC's journey instead.
    Character: The characters feel really fleshed out and alive. The dialogue between the MC and his friends is natural. This feels like normal banter between friends and can be quite amusing at times. I found myself to be invested in the characters and on the edge of my seat while one of them is near death.
    All in all the story is quite impressive as a non-published work. I definitely recommend reading it even if you're not a fan of litrpg. The juvenile humor may not be for everyone though, but i'm immature so i enjoy it.

    It seems that the main criticism levied at this book is a lack of character development and that the high school students who have been transported to this land are acting immature. I would like to point out that the first part of the book is about The main Characters struggle to get over his fear.
    Spoiler: Spoiler
    In the form of Managing to leave the cave and choosing to survive besides the fact that he is terrified of facing his fears. He even carries the scar on his hand from the rock that he clutched tightly in his fear. That scar now serves as a constant reminder not to be afraid.
    If that's, not some decent character development then I don't know what is.
    Now looking at the claim that the people are acting immature. OF COURSE, THEY ARE. That is how high school students act. I know that if my group of friends and I were summoned to some random world of magic with possible death waiting around every corner we would make hella jokes just to try and feel better. It provides an escape from the harsh reality of what's happening and instills a feeling of normality to the situation. Saying the jokes are crass and rude are true. but once again that's how high school students act. Hell in my group of friends it gets way worse than that. I believe that it has added a sense of reality to the book that I greatly appreciate.
    I would, however, like to levy the criticism that they are a little too relaxed in the beginning.
    Overall I have greatly enjoyed this novel and hope My score helps counterbalance the people who just didn't like the humor and thus passed quick and unfair judgments.

    I started reading this book because of necromancer MC, it started of good, but now(begining of book 3) it's only thing that keeps me here.
    First of all, transported people doesn't react like normal people. There are no guilt or doubt, he killed some alive people, and he felt bad about this for few moments, and thats it.
    Second is his group, they are not from our world, but they speak like they are, throwing dick jokes and so on.(while all other people native to the other world acts normaly), and this is major thing, when i realised that, it ruined every chapter for me.
    Third is character development, they don't grow as people, only thing that changed about MC from 1st chapter to book 3 is that he got stronger. I understand that some people may thing that he got used to killing and all. but if you read this a second time, you understand that he didn't change, and this is a problem of writing, author took away his development and put in more jokes.
    fourth is just for me, MC knows programing(and I am a programmer), but how it is written in this book, is one of major problems here, programming is not just puting few strings and its done, but I it's ok what really puts me off is: how does he change that program in the middle of the battle, not only you need to find that part of code, but you need to change it. And it definetely uses more than few seconds.
    So basicaly, you need to do your research before you write, you souldn't write characters thinking about how would you act, but thinking how you or other people are acting every day(if you want realistic characters) and last thing is that there needs to be conflict with himself, for him to grow(for example monologue about how he tries to justify why he killed, and when he needs to kill second time, hesitates, and not for second but longer, because getting used to killing is not instant, it takes time.
    I don't write reviews so often, but when I write it means that i enjoyed reading it, and i want it to get better.

    Great MC, loved the constant inovation with this one. Read alot of necromancer stories so finding some new material is always a blessing! Can't say much in a review, but I definitely recommend it!

    Honestly I’m actually hurt and feeling a little betrayed. Coming from reading the original work where the story took you on a psychological roller coaster of Allen’s growing fear of his possible untimely demise and his desperate scramble for power in the dark arts facing threats from the church and the coming undead Armageddon. This rewrite took a possibly noteworthy novel with so much potential and turned it to a happy go lucky story of redundancy. Not to discredit his work although nowhere near as amazing as the original it is a decent read for the snowflakes that litter this site

    You left to make another story. There is nothing left to say.
