Description

I was just supposed to be a normal guy! I was about to graduate from my normal university with my normal English degree, about to begin my first foray out into the real world.

But somehow, I had ended up worlds away instead. Far, far away from home, in a world that should have been just like mine, running and fighting for my life in a war I didn't understand. None of us knew why or how we were there or what we were ultimately supposed to accomplish. But that didn't really matter, did it?

In my new world, there was only one rule: survive!

Hey all, I'm Ken, and this is my first time sharing a story online. This story is heavily inspired by Terror Infinity, if it wasn't obvious from the title. I've been interested in making a Terror Infinity story for a while now, but I have a lot of problems with its system and mechanics, so I decided to just make my own system instead of trying to adapt to that one. If you find any mistakes, typos, or awkward phrasing please let me know in the comments so I can fix it! I hope everyone can enjoy this story but, even if you don't, please let me know why and what you think I can do to improve.

Thank you.

    It isn't very far in yet, but this is better than any other Infinity series story I've read. Including TI.
    My only complaint is that amount of time I spend checking to see if this has updated is completely unreasonable, and you should take responsibility! :v

    Read this novel if you want a really good Terror Infinity style novel. Good grammer, good characters, interesting.

    I could enjoy this pretty well. The characters arn't verry fleshed out yet but regardless i don't feel like the story really suffered for it since they were so busy. Since they have only known eachother for 2 weeks.
    I have enjoyed reading this story overall, i would recommend reading it.

    As of chapter 14.
    Soooo, I wanted to wait for a few more chapters since there're not many out yet but I found this fiction too good to not make you guys realise that you shoud give it a shot.
    For those like myself who didn't read Terror Infinity(which this story is inspired by) and have no idea what it is, the concept is simple. Some people are reincarnated and every couple of weeks they have to do some missions. Missions get you points and points get you upgrade such as, but not limited to, stats, magic powers, bloodline modifiers, cool weapons, etc. Those missions are usually based on movies, tv shows, comics and more.
    As of chapter 14 we are still on the first mission and this is the reason why I wanted to wait before writing this review. The first mission is about Saving Private Ryan (which is a really good movie and you should probably watch it before if you never had the chance to beause there are a LOT of spoilers).
    So people are dying right and left (we're talking Normandie beach in WWII here) and our mc has to survived through the mission by getting points killing or saving people, destroying tanks and more.
    It is well done. The mc isnt going full psycho and isn't a pussy either. In my opinion, he gets used to this whole situation a bit too fast but I like it better like this even if it is less realistic (let's face it, soldiers with training were scared shitless so let's not talk about an English teacher). But heh, as i said, it is better like this.
    It's a first person POV and also no side characters POV yet so the SC are not much fleshed out but since you never know who's gonna die(because a LOT of them die) it makes sense the author doesn't spend much time on them.
    There are not many, if any grammar issues but French being my first language I might have missed a few. However, it doesnt interrupt the flow of the story at all. It is also well written and better than most of what RRL has to offer.
    On a more personal note, there is the Harem tag and I hate H

    I really like this new take on the concepts brought forawrd from terror infinity. I am curious to see how you will flush out the island concept and where else you might take this story!
    I just want to say though, whereever you go i will be along for the ride

    Freaking awesome. If you have not read 'Ultimate Evolution' or 'Infinity Armament' I highly recommend you do; especially 'Ultimate Evolution'. I really hope you include an overcity like Nightmare Realm or Blood City.
    Also, do you intend to include PvP in the Terror Infinity style? I can only say that I feel Ultimate Evolution does PvP a little better.
    In any case, your WN is awesome, and I will continue reading no matter what.
    Thanks!

    very tasty read, the WW2 beach opening was fucking great, i just hope the author doesnt fuck up the bloodline/power sets like the original writed of terror infinity did.

    Great concept and execution. I really enjoyed the use of military terminology. I finished reading at the end of the Saving Private Ryan part.  I look forward to seeing Infinity Island.
    I have not read Terror Island.  I will have to give it a try.  The idea of playing out a movie's main objective in an open-ended and immersive world has legs beyond the reincarnation trope.
    For example, a hard scifi setting could use this to incorporate fantasy elements.  I believe something similar was used in Ready Player One.
    This is a great fiction.  Totally worth supporting the author.
