The world devolved into chaos as a game-like system reduced the population to a series of statistics and screens. Confusion reigned as everyone struggled to survive in this new reality. Everyone but one man. Anthony Franklin had a secret. One that gave him an edge. He had lived through this exact series of events... 99 times in a row.
Anthony needed to take advantage of all he accomplished over the past centuries: every play, shortcut, and strategy, to save as many lives as possible by the end. He would contend with vicious boss monsters, elude the ever watching eyes of the system administrators, and watch his back from the scheming players that wanted the game to go their way no matter the cost.
In a world where every individual has their own goals, dreams, and fears, shepherding them won't be easy. Anthony must use all of his considerable experience to gain a powerful class and put the scared populace on the right track and take out threats before they become too big. There will be no more chances; win or lose, his 100th run shall be his last.
Book One is now available on Amazon & Audible, audiobook narrated by Daniel Thomas May!

The title says: A Regressor's LitRPG Adventure - And that is exactly what you get. To be honest, the premise of the story is exactly the same as I have read five or six times already, but what I don't understand is why people always bring that up as a negative. The genre of murder mysteries follows the exact same format every single time, across all authors, and people still love it every time. The only thing that changes are the people, the details of events and the way the problems are solved. I think this is exactly the same: What you get is a well executed Regressor story with an OP-MC. I am pretty sure that he is going to collect a team of the best humanity has to offer in the future and fight the good fight against the system. If that is something you are interested in, than you are going to enjoy this story.
Story: As I already said, not an original premise, but the execution is great and I for my part enjoyed it immensely.
Grammar: No Issues there. Cant say much about the spelling, as I had to use a text to speech software to listen to the story because I was too sick to stare at a monitor.
Style: I find the style very appropriate for the genre. I enjoyed the pacing and the action was on point. Feels like there is not much else of need for a great Regressor's LitRPG Adventure.
Character: Ok, this is probably the hardest part to rate, as there are just not enough characters that really had their moment in the spotlight. But the two most important ones, MC and Sara, were great. I am pretty certain that the cast will grow in the following chapters, and then I might need to revisit this point again, but for now, full marks.

THIS IS A POWER FANTASY TAKEN TO THE EXTREME, WITH THE ENEMIES HAVING THERE HANDS TIED BEHIND THERE BACKS! WHILE THE MC HAS WINGS, CHEAT CODES AND KNOWING EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYTHING!!! Like I am seriously questioning, how anybody wold be into that? Playing a game on ez mode, knowing everything and still disabling the enemy from acting?!?! WHERE IS THE STRUGGLE, WHERE IS THE GROWTH!!!
I am not rating this as I don't think I gave it enough of a chance, but I will still point out the problems that prevent me from getting immersed into the story.
100 regressions and not acting like its a 100 regressions, the MC in this story is not a human and he can never be a human. (It should have been a comedy with an insane MC treating everything as a joke, if he was human! But you cant have that because he chose to regress)
Complaining about the system after its sucking your pp in the 100 regressions!!!
The fact you can buy powers instead of earning them, removing any point of the power system!
The system liking the MC so much that it dumbs everybody down to the extreme.
There is an item that prevents the administrators from thinking (I assume from the name). Or they should have immediately seen that MC is not acting how he should act and move to correct it in any of the 100 regressions preventing the MC from regressing. And that item is taken to such an extreme its insane, turning the enemies into NPC! Like such an item should not exist or it should have cost 100 of millions not a 100K!
