Mira has obtained the respect of the forest’s guardians.
After vowing to protect Areswood Forest from an impending conquering attempt, she seeks answers and powers in Misty Row — the bramble that separates the Fourth and Fifth Domains.
It’s a harrowing world with high risks and miraculous rewards she’ll need to protect the forest.
Book 4 of this unique spin on Apocalyptic LitRPG Adventure from Little Lynx!
Botanists who choose to get teleported into dangerous jungles are very rare and if Mira can survive, she may just become indispensible to the System itself.
The series is evolving quickly unlike Mira. What started out as a survival series in the first three books while trying to get stronger, has quickly turned into a civilization creation book as Mira creates an actual village in order to attract her parents to live with her.
There is more focus on her goals of becoming a guardian of the forest and becoming stronger because of it. The first half of the book starts off slow and then the second half of the book felt like someone put it on 4x speed as so much happened so quickly. The other books all had roughly one year for the timeline of each of the three books. In this one I believe the timeline ended with about 2 1/2 years passing.
I love that Mira ends up finally making "Friends" in this world, as the previous books have her alone for most of the time. And thank the powers that be that the author finally did something about the weird story happening between Mira and Aiden; the entire time it was happening, I could not figure out what the author was doing or if the author even liked Aiden's character. This book wraps all of that up. Not neatly at all, but wrapped up it is.
I think that is my biggest complaint about this book in particular if not this series. I don't think the author knows what to do with Mira as far as romance goes. Whereas I happen to enjoy the fact that Mira isn't chasing after love, romance, or sex. And there is a weird moment where the strange Hadrian character apparently lusts after Mira? I am still not sure if that was real or an illusion. I got nothing.
Mira has survived another year. She invites some friends to join her in the forest for the next year. Everyone learns more of the forest and expand her village. The year after she allows her brother and a select group to join her. This causes some friction with the other guardians. But the newcomers love the freedoms and equality Mira gives them and the ability to grow. But because they’ve shown people can survive the forest they now need to prepare an army for the upcoming invasion. So the next year they invite 1200 of the best brightest and most trustworthy to join them. Book ends
A good addition. The pace of events has picked up as day to day no longer needs to be detailed. The characters continue to grow. More world detail are filled in and some of the goals of the System are explained.The narrator is awesome. Please enjoy
I'm not sure if this is the final version or a draft that was supposed to be sent to the editor, but the number of mistakes—misspellings, wrong words altogether, and confusing sentence structure—increased significantly after the first couple of chapters to the point where it made following the story a confusing mess of trying to interpret what the author is trying to say. It doesn't help that this is all occurring when the narrator herself can't be trusted because of illusions and makes it even harder to parse meaning from the text. Would love to read a much better edited version if it gets updated, but I'm unsure how I would know unless I get notified somehow.
I wish this book had a recap in the beginning of everything that’s happened so far. This is a transition book so I know things have to ramp up so she can be strong but it’s a bit rough like maybe it was released a bit too early.
However, I love the series overall. It’s one of my top 10 fave LitRPGs and not every book can be a 5/5 banger. As Mira’s growing there are growing pains! This book made me tear up so you know it’s that good.
Wraithwood Botanist, book four of A LitRPG Apocalypse Adventure series, is an ebook I borrowed through Kindle Unlimited (KU). I've enjoyed Mira's story since book one and could easily continue with more adventures. Interesting relationships with family, friends, allies, and possible love interests. I hope there's more to come.
I was kinda surprised at the negative reviews. While i'll concede it did get a bit monotonous about halfway through, it picked back up and progressed nicely. I look forward to the next one.
