Runescribe: Book Four

The Wylds Online #4

by H.G. Chambers

You have been banned!

A city-crushing world boss on the loose.
The outside world fractured and broken.
Glitches tearing at the fabric of the Wylds.
And a snarky, adolescent void squid taking up residence in Ben's head.

Ben, Will, and Zoe have never faced anything like this before. To survive Isolde and uncover why the world is breaking, they'll have to grow stronger fast, unlock new abilities, and use every dirty trick in the book.

Because if they fail, there may be no real world left to return to.

About the author

H.G. Chambers is a huge nerd. I mean, you should see this guy’s collection of Zelda, Star Wars, D&D, and Tolkien nonsense! He’s also written a few books, I’m told, though chances are they’re equally nerdy. So unless you’re fluent in Klingon and enjoy painfully drawn out conversations about obscure Elden Ring lore, maybe don’t ask what he’s into. Despite what should be a catastrophic social handicap, he’s managed to find an awesome wife and has two implausibly awesome kids (talk about beating the odds). H.G.C. lives out his pathetically nerdy life on Vancouver Island, Canada, where people are polite, and the geese are complete jerks. Seriously…don’t mess with the geese, they will end you.

What a jam packed with action this book is, it has it’s heart stopping moments, as well as some very tender moments, as we travel to the Wylds once again with Ben and his friends, Will and Zoe who do their utmost to save Corehaven as well as the Wylds when the two worlds are threatened by Parity and Isolde. I loved the Crusaders Gauntlet, the quest which Puck sent them on, the games and riddles were very exciting. I love that our trio were all getting so much more powerful, and really loved Nil, the cute squid, who became attached to Ben, his sarcasm and attitude are hilarious. Zoe and Ben are asked to do the impossible in the end, to stop the singularity, and save both their worlds risking both their lives. Can they do this? Our young heroes will stop at nothing. The book ends on a cliffhanger which makes me want to read the next book right now! I love LitRPG and this series is one of the best I have read so far, it comes highly recommended.

First off I love litRPG books of all types but The Wylds Online has got to be one of the funniest, imaginative adventure I've read. H.G. development of the quirky trio who grace this series and their dialogue is well though out. The world building and destruction is first-rate. And if you get a chance listen to the first three on audiobooks for an added dimension of sidesplitting humor. For fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl, add this series to your LitRPG collection. As one reviewer said, this series is brilliant!

I just completed the ARC book. I've never read AR books. I usually read action adventure or mystery books set IRL. This book is full of action and adventure. I did not put it down for days. It is a long book and worthy of my time spent reading. I plan to check out more books by H.G. Chambers.
The characters are multifaceted, great storyline, and this book flows with the previous three. All are must read books. Enjoy!

Absolutely brilliant addition to this fantastic series. Full of tension with many nerve tingling situations. There are new characters to enjoy with lots of humour. The interplay between Ben and one of these new characters is brilliant no spoilers here. The twist at the end is simply inspired. I definitely recommend this book and the whole series

Well written, great characters, good imagination, and with a bit extra!
Many readers will read this for the LitRPG element, but personally I enjoyed it for the bit of sci-fi involved - why they were in this world, what was happening outside, and how it could be resolved.
Also for a really good story!

An excellent continuation and must read. The pages are filled with action throughout. Great battles, humour, sadness and full on action. I received a complimentary copy and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Time to Save the World(s)?

Things are much worse than we realized. Just days are left before the worlds will cease to exist. Can our heroes prevent it from happening? Will they survive? This is a much longer read than the first books, with even more to love.
