The decision to start a new life is never an easy one, but for Joe the transition was far from figurative. Becoming a permanent addition to a game world, it doesn't take long to learn that people with his abilities are actively hunted. In fact, if the wrong people gained knowledge of what he was capable of, assassins would appear in droves.

It’s not easy making the career jump from office-supplies-store middle manager to heroic interdimensional adventurer. At least, Jason tries to be heroic, but it's hard to be good when all your powers are evil. He’ll face off against cannibals, cultists, wizards, monsters...and that’s just on the first day. He’s going to need courage, he’s going to need wit, and he’s going to need some magic powers of his own. But first, he’s going to need pants.

Infinite Worlds is the most popular VRMMORPG on the market. Its maps are so vast, developer Hard Rock Data utilizes a network of highly advanced artificial intelligences to control it. But it’s not without problems. That’s why Game Masters like Jeff Driscoll have jobs. The downside? He’s not allowed to play the game. Something about conflicts of interest and favoritism. His very boring and tedious job is to help players deal with the occasional bug that slips through the cracks and ensure they enjoy their time playing enough to give a five-star rating.

Publisher's Summary
From the very first hour Cayden had set foot inside the massive, real-life game that was the Tower of Babel, nothing had gone according to plan. A unique skill, a handful of new friends, and the wrath of an ultra-wealthy, patricidal lunatic were just some of the complications to his best laid plans.
So why was he even surprised when a special event trapped him, his companions, and dozens of other players inside the tower, squaring them off against a murderous army of stone-faced warriors?
If they are to have any hope of survival, they'll have to leverage not only their own personal power, but the power of the Elan as well. There are castles to be built, armies to be raised, and one real question to be posed: How good is a self-proclaimed RPG nerd going to be at turn-based strategy?

What a total let down...
The 1st book is called Speed Runner, this book should have been called Boat Anchor. Totally different from book #1. This story does take place at the end of the first book, however instead of an action packed run and gun type of story it turns into the typical MC getting into the logistics of commanding a castle. Blah, blah, blah food and shelter and defense. There are only like 5 battles scenes in the whole book. Not to mention a whole new way of moving and fighting.
But the worst thing for me is when Cayden starts referring to the NPC as real people, their feelings, their well being, the whole.. "We can't send these people into battle" garbage. Although Cayden keeps telling everyone that it is just a game and how it should be played, he refers to the NPCs as real people, I really do not enjoy this, I know it is full emersion but I am not looking for a soap opera.
If you are expecting the same type of story line as Speed Runner then do not buy this book. In fact I will not be buying any more of this series, more than once I had to ask what the heel they were talking about.

a dumpster fire of a book
I liked the speedrunner, and without looking at the reviews or length of the book bought this. Ready for a quirky adventure to save the damsel in distress or whatever the author had ready, what i got was so much less then that low expectation. This rubbish is a slogh of hack rts base building boring enough to cure insomnia. stats and stats of things, long winded exlpinations of common rts mechanics, and zero character development. all previous mechanics thrown out and we sit in the base listening to hours of this in a 9 hour long book. and then we get to the set piece, the climactic battle, that is mildly interesting when compared to the coma induced from the previous hours of exposition suffered through. ( I will note i woke up once when they did a dungeon delve to break up monotony. ) but the set piece was underwhelming, none of the characters really seemed bothered by the scorched earth policy adopted except one. and then the book ends, no resolution to the plot, a cliffhanger is all you get. you're welcome, go fuck off, I got my money. is what the author just told me.

Weak follow-up to the first book in the series.
Adam Elliot did a great job writing the first book; it was well written and cohesive entry into a young genre. Liar King was a poor follow-up. The first of the genre (that I've read) that attempted to integrate the RTS gaming genre into the book, it was poorly executed, but failed to be a significant impact on the story line. Adam attempted a significant leap in the barmaid/monk story line from the original, but the build up, context, and foreshadowing didn't add enough context or desired build up for the type of bombshell history for the character.
This reads like a PG-13 harem LitRPG.

Trying not to be nitpicky
great book and great series. in my opinion the dungeon tower trope isnt played out yet in the litrpg genre. There is just one thing that bugged me throughout this book. The first book made it seem that the MC is a all about speedruns and streaming his gameplay. i thought that was pretty neat because most litrpgs tend to focus to much on the details and i thought the series would be primarily about fighting an uphill battle as quickly and innovatively as possible. Then i listened to the second book and it totally spun of track. it switched to RTS like age of empires gameplay and it totally threw me for loop. Its good, but i feel like the author keeps reinventing the MC and i think he had it perfect the first time

Incomplete
To start, if you liked the first book, you'll likely enjoy this one, at least to a degree. There are 2 big things to note though. First, there's less of a focus on personal growth, or even party growth, and more of a focus on strategy. The story takes a lot of inspiration from rts games such as civ5 in city building, turns and troops. Personally, I didn't mind the adjustment much, though it did leave me a bit wanting. I would have liked to see the party dynamic or personal abilities of some of the main characters improve.
Second, this book is not book 2. It can call itself book 2 all it wants, but it's book 1.5 without a doubt. Rather than focusing in the least little bit on the overall plotline, this book goes on a tangent. While it's a fairly enjoyable tangent, it's left incomplete. Ending with a cliffhanger for a sideplot is just obnoxious. Maybe get this book after a sequel comes out, but as it is, it isn't worth the credit.

This book quickly became civilization 5. Not the best turn. Became boring and tedious to read. The premise of the story is gone. Focus on streaming, speed running, or even mmo concept is kind of gone.

Disjointed and incomplete
In this book, we were dropped into a story that was already going. It was like missing a book or critical novelette between book 1 and book 2. The characters were still consistent and the story line, despite jumping forward without an ado, was consistent with book 1. However, I don't like the way the author moved the story forward. In addition, this book felt like a short story. There wasn't a lot of story to digest and enjoy. The story that was there was pretty good, but the other problems took away from enjoying it. The narration was still very good. I may get book 3 if I find it on sale, but book 2 wasn't the same caliber as book 1.

Doesn't live up to the first
Disappointing after the first book. The author makes continuity errors repeatedly, such as saying characters are 16 years old, when it was a whole plot point in the first book that no one can enter the tower under 17. The speedrunner and streamer angles - which attracted me to the series in the first place, remain thoroughly abandoned, making it just like every other LITRPG. Finally the game changes genre to a RTS game instead of RPG which is extremely dull. It made me go play some RTS games instead of listening. I gave up with 2 hours to go and returned it.

I'll likely listen to the next, but...
It felt off on the first with the RTS elements to the story. And sometimes I had no idea what the hell was going on. Like with the first I felt like the listing of level and attributes and the like were filler.
Though it was an enjoyable story I see it as a poor man's Sword Art Online and this book especially like a filler episode or a side-along movie.

Who the hell cares about the white knight?
There is so much unlived potential to this series that it is honestly sad. The premise was betrayed so badly with so much forced conflict and inconsistency that devolves the story and its game elements into pointlessness.
The series didnt need to dive into different gaming types like rts when its already an mmorpg and the mcs original goal was getting to the top as fast as possible using what he learnt and planned, not what he luckily runs into.
I understand adapting to his rune class, but this entire book and the plot about the white knight is just a spit in the face to the original speedrunners set up.
The characters are underdeveloped aswell, with the fated one plot being presictavle and undernining the mcs own effort.
boring.

Story
Jason logs into Awaken Online fed-up with reality. He's in desperate need of an escape, and this game is his ticket to finally feeling the type of power and freedom that are so sorely lacking in his real life. Awaken Online is a brand new virtual reality game that just hit the market, promising an unprecedented level of immersion. Yet Jason quickly finds himself pushed down a path he didn't expect. In this game, he isn't the hero. There are no damsels to save. There are no bad guys to vanquish.

Runner has a problem. He and 499,000 men and women are trapped in a game. He also just happens to be the only person from IT who could log everyone out safely. And he doesn't remember his password. He, like everyone else in this nightmare, had his memory scrambled or lost in the process of being loaded into the game. A single garbled message is his only clue to how to save everyone. The problem is that whoever loaded them into the game loaded their minds completely.
