The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound 11: The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound, Book 11

The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound #11

by Noret Flood, MacLeod Andrews (Narrator), puddles4263

With the frontlines against Nether stable, Randidly Ghosthound returns to Earth.

What he discovers there is alarming; while his growth allows him to step outside the normal procedures, the mechanisms of the Nexus continue their grim work in remaking the world to its own ends.

Crime is rampant. Many people have earned Classes from the System, but few handle their newfound powers responsibly. Cults, murderers, and greedy demagogues abound. Mrs. Hamilton, Alana, Hank Howard, and the other righteous representatives from the Zones will need to band together to stop the spread.

To that end, Randidly turns to the nascent Kharon, the Wandering City. Knowing he will not always be present, he remakes its capabilities to provide a guiding light to those who want a better future.

Yet this isn't the end to his labors. Because while assisting his home planet, he must prepare for Special Investigator Kaan Swacc, a man who is determined to discover the secret to the Ghosthound's meteoric rise...

The two previous books were not the best, but at last, the author managed to write an excellent book that reminded me why I started this series and continue to follow it.

This time, Randadly Ghosthound is again on Earth and continues to educate people around him. We can see his desire to help people grow in the System and to cooperate.
It attracts too much Nexus attention to Earth and brings unexpected "guests".

best book in a long while

A must read…. But read all the other prior books first… and I mean all of them! From A to Z

[Ashley Miles · Rating 5 out of 5]

Awesome series

Story was fantastic,so five stars for that, unfortunately there were some grammar and other writing errors that should have been cleaned up during proof read. Still looking forward to next book

Brilliant

Was really happy to be reminded when this book was released. Really enjoying reading about the ghosthounds exploits and really looking forward to what happens next.

Mostly pointless

I love this series! But this book, no sir.

What did the ghosthound even accomplish? Mostly just trained on his own and laid in a tub of starch. It's not the most exciting way to gain power.

Mostly felt like the author was tying off a bunch of loose ends before the mc heads to Nexus.

Slow, difficult to get through. It was missing the nail-biting drama of previous books. Felt long.

Dunno. Was not a fan.

Well, that took me a while to get into. So many characters... I can't remember everyone while taking breaks between works. The web novel is completed though, so we don't have many books left. (Series ends with book 14-15?). Sadly, the wiki is not yet complete enough to offer sufficient handholding while reading but searching names and terminologies in previous books is easy enough on kindle and immediately tells me when someone or something was first mentioned or introduced. It does break up the reading experience but so does wondering wtf is happening and who all the rando's are 😅
On Royal Road the author said he set out to write a hypercomplex system (writing exercise?) and anyone who was sucked in by the story is welcome to stick about. This clarified something fundamental for me tbh. At times i wondered WHY the system was so needlessly complex, but if that's what he set out to write and everything else is a bonus.... We are spoiled to think we get to complain and demand differently lol. Do I fully grasp the intricate system within a system over another system of which one is run on the life force of someone's offspring? Nah, but my 80% understanding is sufficient to enjoy the plot.

So, thoughts on this installment? Uhm... It dragged. And yet it was over too quickly. Politics? Smolitics, can't stand it. Randidly being called "tHe sTRoNgeST maN On eArTH" repeatedly gave me the ick, same for his attitude. I suppose it makes sense, but his "stronger/holier than thou" spiel is meh.

Vacation time!

Sorta.

I mean, returning to the Earth to somehow convince the entire planet that it needs to train up hard or be left in the dust of the rest of the universe doesn't QUITE sound relaxing. And massive training regimens that tear your body apart is KINDA relaxing-adjacent. Right?

But it was fun revisiting the changed Earth and so many of the characters we'd gotten to know over the series. And funnily enough, most of the big leaps forward are all leaps backward into memories. Funny, right? Still, a great callback to all that came before.

This series just gets better with each new book

Randidly has grown and developed so much from the beginning. It will be fascinating to see how he deals with the politics in the Nexus.

I do have to wonder where his two aides went. We learned that they came to Earth with him from the frontlines, but then were never referenced again…did I just miss something about them leaving Earth?

[Tyler · Rating 3 out of 5]

I love this series, but man do I just want more to happen. The way these are written on Patreon originally just incentivises dragging the story out and while the extensive world building is part of what I enjoy about the genre, it also wears you down after a while to the point I could (and probably will) literally copy and paste this review onto multiple books.

[Dennis Gibson · Rating 1 out of 5]

This Book in the king of filler, the last 2 books were filler but this book was the King of Filler and long winded. A lot of bla bla bla. This whole book was one big filler in the series. The Book Sucked
The last book I read in the series. I was bored out of my mind reading the shit.

[Monty · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not sure about this one. Long time since I read the RR version and this audiobook did not mesh with my recollections of that fully. It was also exceedingly passive and vague with little to no action and a fizzling out non-ending. An ending where the confrontation the entire book was building toward never comes to pass and if there will be one it is relegated to the next book.

[Andre Taylor · Rating 5 out of 5]

great read

Story continues to progress well, action packed. Side character stories mostly feel like fillers. Overall still a very good read and another great example if the LitRPG genre.

[Bobsome · Rating 3 out of 5]

Another entry I enjoyed, but felt a bit drawn out. A lot of typos and grammatical errors in this one. Also I wish they'd just stop using nonplussed and bemusing, because even if the words are used right in context, I'm never quite sure.

[Tobias Granberg · Rating 4 out of 5]

We're finally getting a glimpse of the endgame.


With the power disparity growing even waster moving away from earth feels like a natural choice and a good way forward while keeping up the suspense.

[William Howe · Rating 5 out of 5]

still glad

Glad to pay the author for hours…days of enjoyment. And the published work still hasn’t caught up to what I’ve already read.

[Dan · Rating 5 out of 5]

great!

This is one of the best yet but I tend to like the books that focus more on earth than the wider universe.

[Miguel · Rating 1 out of 5]

So much navel gazing to end up at an anti-climax.

[Vijay · Rating 3 out of 5]

sets up for a decent next arc

[Rohalio Newman · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great entry. You feel the weight of leadership in this one.

[Horia · Rating 4 out of 5]

good entry!
for anyone reaching this far, this is definitely worth the read.
