Exceptional Writing and Characters!
This series has been phenomenal! This author weaves the reader through an incredible story as the main character touches on many lives with a quiet honor and dignity! The action and world building are captivating as you immerse yourself into your minds eye!

this series is just fun. an op main character with a solid moral core. has a bit of an anime feel but overall just a good time.

fun
But a bit predictable.
I enjoyed reading it, however I would *not* hold this up as a paragon of the genre. It can be pedantic, and there isn’t a whole lot of in depth foreshadowing.
Still gonna get the next (?) book.

logical MC, no nonsense good world building.
I really enjoy this series. It reminds me a little bit of system universe. The character is no nonsense, an ex CIA. contractor with a heart of gold. I’ll treat you like you treat me. That’s his catchphrase. Smart, intelligent, not angst ridden. you gotta love this character. He’s OP but can still occasionally get beat up. The story takes you all over the place from different worlds and different situations like I said gotta love this guy and gotta love this story. Not too keen on the direction of the next book, but I will eventually read it when it comes out no spoilers. Like I said, if you like system universe, defiance of the fall, he who fights with monsters you will like this story.

LitRPG with a likeable hero who while continuing to increase levels does so with grace and charm.
As this is the third book in the series, Ivor (the main protagonist) continues to build his home world while this episode focuses more on his adventures with his trading partners.
New worlds, skills and monsters with ongoing political matters to deal with make this a five rather than four star book.

Another fantastic book
I like the pacing and character development. I hate when the MC has random wild deviations in behavior, especially when older, and this MC is consistent. The world building is top notch as is the story. Definitely a series you can read multiple times. And to top it off the cover art not only relates to the story but is fantastic as well. Kudos to both the author and artist on excellent work. Highly recommended.

I don't mind an OP protagonist. This episode took advantage of the usual OP tropes; MC underestimated by all, aristocrats and bullies humbled, helpless puppies rescued from certain doom. It's all good.
Toward the end, Ivor takes on a second identity for good reasons... but then maintains that separation when it makes no sense, even to the author. This results in a farcical award ceremony where one of Ivor's identities is publicly recognised/rewarded, despite his alter-ego doing the heavy lifting. It's just messy, add nothing to the reader's enjoyment and eventually peters-out. Re-write please, Brad.
The next book seems like it will nerf Ivor and send him into some sort of school for training/testing. I doubt he will lose his natural abilities — those gained via a lifetime as a covert agent. I'm keen to see how it unfolds.

Book three
Well that was pretty well written in my opinion.
Couple of mistakes that I will post on Goodreads.
Some action and some political action.
While I'm not looking forward to the school legacy that will undoubtedly start off book four, I did enjoy the exploration of the lost planet and look forward to more of that and more dungeon experiences.
8/10 Excited to see what comes next.

As much as I enjoyed the first installment to the series, this third entry just felt like slop in comparison.
Much of what had been built, in regards to the system, laws, and universal truths, had seemed to be built with care and foresight. The world-building, originally, had potential. When the author had been giving readers explanations or descriptions of the laws in which the universe operated, rather than introduce conflicting systems or "dumb" ones, sometimes the author would simply claim ignorance via the means, such as from the character's "new" perspective, while still maintaining a sense of suspended disbelief. This might allow for more freedom for the author, as well as imparting a sense that we're learning how things work, too.
This latest entry had seemed to have taken little-to-no thought towards that previous care when introducing new, poorly-developed and, arguably, bad, elements. It's like, instead of caring about developing an interesting, well-thought story, characters, and various world-building elements, the author had switched gears - writing for the purpose of meeting word-count goals, or just to put something down on paper without the level of quality established with the initial installment.
Instead of the chef producing a delectable dish, prepared with, if not the finest, then tasteful ingredients, made with care and a passion for cooking, this was more comparable to an underfunded public school's cafeteria lunch.
I'd ask the chef to rediscover that passion for cooking before going back to the kitchen - for the art of the craft, if nothing else.

An entertaining OP MC apocalypse system LITRPG book. The MC is massively over powered but the way the author writes the character makes it an entertaining read rather than just power creep over the top action. The MCs morals and actions make him an interesting protagonist.
There was a small amount of over-repetition, where the MC does something, then it gets described to another person who then relates it again to a third party. It felt a trifle redundant and over-explainy in a few places.
One thing that did annoy me slightly though, when Ivor and Zed talk internally the text is in italics which is fine but the descriptive text is also in italics which annoyed me. (For example: “𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘰 𝘡𝘦𝘥?” 𝘐𝘷𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘴𝘬𝘦𝘥. “𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘐𝘷𝘰𝘳,” 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘳 𝘈𝘐 𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘥 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥.")
It just felt out of place having the descriptive text in italics as well. This is only a minor grumble in an otherwise outstandingly entertaining read.

Exploration surprisingly enough, didn't really have all that much exploration. I'm mildly irritated by that, I always am when a title doesn't match the content of the book, but for the most part, this was a well done book. There was some exploration, but when the whole title is exploration, I'd expect quite a bit more than we got in this one. Otherwise though, I enjoyed the book, and now I need to wait 5 days until the next one is published so I can continue reading all about this world and the main character's place in it. But, since the next one isn't really going to be about the world as a whole, there won't be a lot of progression, though character wise, it should be a load of fun to read, looking forward to it.

With Reservation
This is a well written and fast paced series. I enjoy the characters and the level of scenic development. However, I feel the author is recycling the story's tropes repeatedly. I have become numb to the number of times the MC has 'reluctantly' talked about his past, his age regression, and excessive stats. Then there is the arrogant or aggressive jerk trope. The novels are formulaic to a fault. So much so that the novel are extremely predictable.
The good news is that the story moves at such a fast pace that I did not have time get bored with the story yet.
I have completed the third book and give it a moderate to just under strong read recommendation. I think you will enjoy it.
To the author: Follow Zed's advice and challenge yourself.

While i liked the small exploration part of the book, i found the rest of the book flawed and naive. I found the loving, open hearted and egalitarian royal family contrived and didn't like that the author overly humanised the aliens. Aliens wouldn't know thatthe name "Bill Smith" screams that it is an alias but react that way.
By now, the power level of the mc got ridiculous and the constant rehashings of his past and deeds, not to mention the emphasis on his selflessness got tiresome. Moreover, now that he is the best, has the best equipment possible, a huge fortune and his antagonists utterly outclassed, there are no stakes or tension anymore..

Our polite and dignified special agent is back. There are so many pots/plots cooking that it feels rushed and everything is go and urgent even though there are no deadlines. Seems like we need a breather. I get the new Earth would be might is right and high levels would take advantage of lower but it doesn’t make sense in the wider universe as they would learn the hard way. In the universe we don’t see every higher level attacking everyone at a lower level. All I’m saying is everyone immediately attacking the lower level mc is past getting old. Looking for more adventure and less politics in the next books.

great job
The book is great at staying true to the character, showing off his previous experience as an agent both through telling and deeds. While there hasn’t been a true challenge to ivor throughout the series except the first few chapters, it still sucks you in as he faces political problems that would give other mcs migraines and handed them effortlessly through his 40+ year experiences toppling regimes.
Decent writing, great pacing, and a world building that is amazing. I think I appreciate the fact that the focus isn’t on earth, but rather his personal journey through exploring the wider universe. It’s a nice breath of air in the genre.

note to the author
Loved the book, I like the fast pace of your story telling, it makes for a fun light read.
I myself, and I’m sure others, would appreciate if you created a placeholder spot for the next book in the series on Amazon. Many of us in the genre speed through these series and are often reading a dozen different series at once as the books come out. By adding the next book as an upcoming release, even if the release date isn’t accurate, it allows us to add it to our reading lists so we can make sure we come back to it when the next book releases.

Very well written book.
I am enjoying this Series more each book. The Author has a very good writing style, he simply tells the story without having the MC doing stupid stuff to move the plot along, like so many bad writers today insist on doing. The only problem with the series is waiting for the next book to be written. I fully and highly endorse this series of books and highly encourage everyone to read this great series.

Not as good as the first 2
Just my opinion but the writer did not really put much effort into this book. Kept explaining the same skills over and over. The character got a a way to hide his stats but he then went and told everyone about his stats.. Also explained about everything!! He was supposedly a dark cover agent but he outed himself so many times that it got redilicous to keep reading this book

Another great read!
The series so far has kept me interested and wanting more. You get to read about the new worlds and interactions with new people. The MC is OP but is still growing in ability. Also the MC is getting more of the life he wanted and couldn’t have before integration. Hope to see more of these worlds and MC for a long time to come.

Lying is not acceptable.
Ivor continues building his empire and increasing his already ridiculous stats , at least the explanation for Ivors growth has been logical and consistent from book one , he is an interesting character thrown into interesting situations, looking forward to book four.

Awesome LITRPG
Exploration book 1-3 is awesome! Most books have someone that is learning to fight as they level, but our hero Ivor worked for 40 years contracting with the CIA before the system came, so the system put him through a special tutorial and grow he did in amazing ways! Great action and great story! You’ll love it!

Wow
Brad drops another book that is impossible to put down. This series is amazing with plenty of action and very satisfying faceslapping(except this slap is a killer lol) kind of events. I personally love how you still get info and background on the people and world around him and earth isn't forgotten about.

Awesome
Maintains good blend of more traditional style book with litrpg blended. Definitely hit that style on the nose. Fun OP main character. Writing style is a little different, but allows a lot to happen in a nice concise style, and allows reader to add embellishments with imagination.

A really interesting series with a seriously OP MC who kicks butt and takes names
The MC is an portal hopping adventurer who puts the hurt on those who stand against him. He also treats peeps the way he's treated, so he's a "good guy" to friends, but a holy terror to advesaries. He's on speed dial for kings but the space mafia is wary of him.

Entertaining and Fun!
I like the growth of the author right along with his main characters. I enjoy the world building and introduction of life forms not from earth.
I recommend this series to lovers of fantasy, science fiction and lit- rpg genres. I am really loving this series.

Cool series and great main character development.
Ivor's deeds really come out into the light in the third book of the series. Some pretty cool twists to character and plot developments here as well. Ivor is definitely one of my top 5 favorite main characters that I have read in a while.

Really Good OP Character
I like to read books once in awhile where the MC is OP. It's pure entertainment which I throughly enjoy. In addition this is a fast paced story with a lot of action. For me personally, I can't think of anything negative about this book. I am usually pretty critical, but not this time. I would highly recommend this series.

Story is great
The author is really talented with his world building and storyline. The storytelling could use some work as a lot of the book reads like a plot summary vs. a novel in terms of grammar, sentence structure, etc; however the pacing and the actual content is enough to keep one hooked.

This book is like riding a rollercoaster, definitely ups and downs in enjoyment. If we could move away from repetitive phrases and character repeating what comes out of Ivor’s mouth right after he says it, that would be cool. Out of the three books available right now, this one is definitely in the middle.

Great series!
I really enjoyed the first three books and look forward to more. The MC becomes relatively OP in an exclusive and ancient System based Evaluation trial based on his life experiences. Well told with some comedic inflections, MC is positive values based. If you like seeing evil jerks brought low this series is for you.
