Description

It is summer, 2016. On this fateful Sunday, the world is shook when an announcement - in the form of a blue screen, nothing less - appears in front of every human being on Earth. This announcement is both the ending of an era, and the beginning of a new one.

Join our main charachter, James, on his induction into a whole new world and the wider universe. In the world of Terrae, there are infinite possibilities. Swords, bows, magic and more all exist on this world - complete with fantasy-esque races and monsters. In a RPG-like environment, James and the others from his world must grow and adapt fast or fall before the hordes of monsters infesting their new home. What path to power will James take, in a world of infinite possibilities? Who will he become? What has become of Earth and it's other inhabitants - His family?

Follow James in his journey to discover these things himself, as he has no clue either. After all, he has just been Taken from his world, and is expected to adapt and thrive in a whole new place. Good luck to him, anyway!

All credit for the awesome cover goes to ssddx, who did a brilliant job putting it together, as I'm sure you can all see!

I will note that, as pretty much all LitRPG novels have, that, to a certain extent, I have taken inspiration from other works I have read. This, however, is an original fiction.

I hope any and all of you who read this fiction enjoy reading it just as much as I enjoy writing it, and please feel free to comment - I recognice that this will need work and will have things like typos - please feel free to point out any obvious things I forget about or miss out, as well as any typos. Also, feel free to lob suggestions my way if you have any - while I may not use them, they could very well inspire me in some way or another and help me improve this fiction, even if just by a little bit.

I'm already enjoying the unique premise. The author has a good grasp of the English language, and the story is shaping up to be a lot of fun.
I may just be overly picky, but the only flaw that I wish to point out is the author's tendency to info-dump. I feel like there is likely a more effective way to communicate all of the information without chopping up the story.

A funny choice to go with only a part of humanity 12-18 of age.
Because i always felt that apocalypse or similar genres like the one your novel is about do not simulate the sheer amount of people in it wel.
Its very hard to make such a huge amount of humans all react and respond realisticly to such an event.
Like with sword art online i do not remember the exact amount of people in the game but it was a number you could at least deal with.
Still only the MC had the intelect of a toddler managing to outstage the other players as they got the mind of a cute little semen fish.
Compare that to millions x millions of peeps and what do u get a shit fest if at least 100 000 peeps pop up with a rare class or some ragnarok like weapon the planet wont survive..... nor will it be as peacefull.
Anyways rant over i like the concept, a little less shit would be nice its smelly in here toedels~

Too much focus on faeces for my taste. I don't sympathise with that particular fetish.
