King's Gate

King's Gate #1

by Daniel Pierce

What would you do if you woke up in another world? That's exactly the problem facing Alex Burke, a recently employed security guard who accidentally finds himself falling through an ancient teleportation gate. When he opens his eyes, he discovers a world of magic, elves, monsters, and demons, not all of which are eager to meet him. With no idea how to get home, he'll need to adapt, grow, and kill to survive. But Alex is a stranger in a strange land, which means he's bound to draw interest. Whether that's from his enemies or the many beautiful women he encounters remains to be seen, but he'll need every ounce of wit, strength, and charm to conquer both. This story contains adult situations, course language, and other fun things. Read at your own risk.

Reviews

[Gregory Allanther]

Didn't like it much.

I bought this novel because it was in the Amazon recommendations for me, and didn't go into it with high expectations. And shouldn't have gone in with any.

Pros: not many spelling or grammatical errors

Cons: obvious plot holes, one dimensional characters, poor scene setting, character reactions weren't believable. Definitely a work that should have gone to an editor first.

I would recommending purchasing this book as a gift for your enemies.

[Iori]

Awesome

Well that was a nice début, it was actually better than the jumbled mess called "forever young" and the female love interest are interesting and not bothersome shrew. I liked how the magic was instinctive and the clear goal of the story.

[Sara]

I have enjoyed all of Daniel Pierce's books but I must say King's Gate is my favorite!

Alex, our main character whose world is turned upside down when he's thrown into a different realm. He's a lovable character who makes you laugh. I had many laugh out loud moments reading this book. Emely, Mathus, Riley, Nia and Celeste make up the rest of Alex's band of misfits.

King's Gate will suck you in from the beginning and you'll be sad when you finish, like you've lost a dear friend. You'll laugh and cheer for the good guys!

A must read.

[Sheila Helt]

If you like spice scenes written by a man then go for it but I was not a fan. And in general the main character was just kinda full of himself and too 'perfect' it was a short read for me on audible so I finished it but will not read the second.

[Frank Bertino]

Entertaining Read

Alex is transported from his job on Earth to another planet with waring magic and beautiful elves and others. His goal of getting home is hijacked by magic, battles, and lust (love?). I like the action, snarky humor, and romance. Will he be able to protect everyone from the dark magic? I look forward to the next book.

[C.W. Ashley]

I've read 4 books from this author now, and with the others I was seeing a worrying trend. The story would start strong before losing steam with sluggish pacing and a boring support cast. Luckily King's Gate avoids these shortcomings, and stays fairly gripping throughout.

The chemistry of the main characters really does shine through I was half expecting it to get cheesy and tropey but the dialogue is quite snappy and invests you in their adventure. The plot is a pretty basic fantasy 'chosen one' yarn, but the factions and entities within the world still comes off as fresh and intriguing.

Maybe it is because this book is on the shorter side, but I never felt bored with it. I'm looking forward to reading the sequel.

[John]

Good start

So I liked The story and premise. I also like all the companions that the "Chosen one" has acquired. I don't however like the magic system as it is very vague. Basically poof something happens with no description or attempt the of. When a story is in a magic world and the MC is tasked with collecting more of it then there should be a more refined or structured system. Basically goes like this... Big battle and tattoo gets bigger. There also needs to be better transitions between areas and travel or even descriptions of the world in general. That said I like the MC snark and banter and like the general story line. I will prob read the second and hope for improvement as the authors other works are better so I know he can do better.

[James]

A good start to a series.

This book was enjoyable to read and it had some good moments in the book where you can see the characters developed.The characters are interesting and varied I enjoyed the use of the gates to make it possible for the author to develop the story in unique ways.

Hook and Thesis

Listening gave me enough adventure to get my paws moving, and enough friction between its people to question where they were heading together. I like the dangerous journey, the strange refuges, and the possibility of a scattered group becoming a dependable pack. What catches beneath my claws is the gap between Alex being declared important and his judgment deserving that importance. His courage has substance; his entitlement receives more indulgence than it earns. The relationships have warmth, but they also lean heavily on attraction, magical compatibility, and the certainty that this exceptional man belongs at their center. As an Alpha Ice Wolf, I care about how strength changes the lives gathered around it. I want to feel why these people choose each other when nobody is fighting or undressing. The audiobook sometimes gives me that connection, particularly when its characters admit loneliness or accept help. Too often, it hurries toward another demonstration of power before that warmth has settled into the den.

Basic Plot Summary

Alex Burke begins with a job, military experience, and a practical interest in combat before an encounter beneath an excavation site throws him into Ratonyia. His weapons training has roots in his previous life, giving his reactions under pressure more credibility than a beginner suddenly becoming a master swordsman. The opening gives ordinary security procedures enough attention to make the impossible intrusion feel disruptive. Emely becomes his guide through a world where naturally occurring magic is policed by the Covenant, and using your abilities can attract enemies. A developing mark on Alex's body places him inside a prophecy he initially wants to escape. The journey toward answers becomes an expanding commitment involving a wary elf, a surprisingly gentle giant, and people whose survival has already been shaped by this regime. The first hag encounter gives that premise teeth: Alex's initial approach gets a weapon stuck, and survival requires noticing a vulnerability and working with Emely. I appreciate that practical problem solving. It gives the opening danger a physical shape before destiny starts doing more of the heavy lifting.

Praise and Critique

The magic has an appealing bodily presence. Alex experiences heat, pain, intrusive sensations, and changes he cannot simply inspect or dismiss. His developing tattoo makes progression personal, while its connection to his role gives it a purpose beyond decoration. More interesting is the magical transition's function as a signal bringing a developing user into contact with a suitable mentor. A process designed to help people find guidance has become dangerous because the Covenant can detect it too. Cooperation and persecution grow from the same mechanism. Emely's explanation that magical compatibility matters also gives teaching a relational dimension. For my gamer brain, it offers a different pleasure from following numerical upgrades. Power feels alive inside its bearer. My fur would bristle at discovering that something beneath my skin could announce my location to an enemy. The strongest part of this system is that early connection between gaining an ability, needing another person, and becoming more exposed.

Ratonyia produces locations with enough character to make the journey worth following. Travel can go badly wrong, and a sheltered place may have a stranger history than the danger outside it. Riley's home is an effective example. Its Earth furnishings initially seem incongruous, but a trader who uses the portals connects that appearance to movement between worlds. The domestic oddity becomes a small piece of an economy. Ollie's takes the idea further with a hidden, moving tavern supporting an underground network. I like places that answer practical questions about surviving oppression: where people meet, obtain information, find shelter, and recognise allies. A resistance needs somewhere to sit down as well as somewhere to swing a sword. Those details lift my ears because they suggest lives beyond Alex's immediate field of vision. I would have welcomed more time with that community, but the tavern and unexpected household details give the world a texture that a procession of anonymous forests and monsters would lack.

Mathus gives the group its most convincing independent moral center. His decision to leave a violent society belongs to him. He has seen enough killing and chooses another way of living, even when that leaves him lonely. His gentleness carries a cost. His size also changes what rescue and protection look like, while his presence forces Emely to reconsider assumptions about Red Caps. Her caution has understandable stakes because trusting the wrong stranger could endanger her people. That gives the encounter more substance than simply congratulating Alex for being open-minded. There is humor in the giant's appetite, gardening, and accommodation to a smaller world, but the warmth comes from his conduct. He helps before he can expect acceptance. That matters to this wolf. My pack begins with what you do when nobody has promised to welcome you. Mathus leaves clearer tracks of character through his actions than several speeches about a chosen hero's destiny, and I wish Alex absorbed more of his example.

Emely and Riley deserve credit for having a relationship that existed before Alex appeared. Their reunion brings resentment, familiarity, and unfinished business into the story. Riley resents Emely's absence, while Emely carries family concerns and urgent obligations. Their histories create friction that cannot be reduced to competition over a man. Riley's interest in magical chemistry is another useful distinction: knowledge becomes something she has worked toward, connected to her endangered existence and curiosity about her origins. Emely brings experience and a protective loyalty that can make her guarded. Her morning conversation with Alex also establishes expectations around their physical relationship. An explanation of a polyamorous culture gives their arrangement a social setting. I appreciate that groundwork, particularly when the village later offers glimpses of relationships beyond their own. My reservation is that a permissive culture explains what people may accept; the individual attachments still need development to show why these particular people become important to one another.

The audiobook does supply some of that development. Riley's account of isolation explains how hiding and concentrating on survival can make it difficult even to identify what she needs from another person. Alex asks about her experience, offers her room to decline, and manages to listen without taking over. That exchange gives her desire for companionship an emotional context. Later, practical care matters too: people watch over one another, provide food, worry about recovery, and contribute abilities Alex cannot supply himself. Nia's expertise becomes apparent when she has a task to concentrate on, giving her something beyond nervous admiration to bring to the group. These exchanges are the warmth I want beneath the armor. They prevent me from dismissing the cast as emotionally empty. The connection exists, and Alex can respond to it. My disappointment comes from how unevenly the story protects those moments once flirtation, urgency, or another assertion of his importance pulls attention elsewhere.

The Earth references make sense as Alex's attempt to interpret unfamiliar experiences. Treating Emely as a potential Yoda invokes a teacher guiding someone through powers they do not understand, an established role for the Jedi Master. His talk of Wonderland and the White Rabbit before entering another strange opening also fits Alice's descent into an unfamiliar world. The amusement comes partly from Emely having no reason to recognise what he means. Alex's vocabulary for orienting himself cannot automatically become a shared language. Riley's familiarity with Earth material changes that dynamic, giving the women another distinction. I enjoy cultural mismatches that reveal the limits of an outsider's perspective. Entering a fantasy world would involve communication as much as combat. The references work best when Alex's joke exposes his own awkwardness. Their value weakens when the surrounding people exist chiefly to provide a baffled audience for another clever remark, leaving him comfortably amused by a distance that requires effort to cross.

Criticism

Alex's handling of other people's boundaries is my largest difficulty. He has legitimate reasons to demand information about threats to his life, and involuntary transportation would leave anyone angry and frightened. The problem is how readily he turns uncertainty into physical intimidation. Early encounters with Emely involve grabbing, pinning, threats, and refusing to back off when she tells him to. Her force also makes their interactions volatile, but mutual aggression does not establish trust. Later, he interrupts her private reunion with Riley and treats their reluctance to explain everything immediately as a challenge to his authority. He can reconsider and learn some manners, so growth does exist. Nevertheless, the story allows protective concern and possessiveness to run together without examining the difference for long enough. My hackles rise when leadership becomes a claim over everyone else's choices. I do not measure an Alpha by how quickly the room obeys him. Alex earns respect when he carries risk for others; declaring himself entitled to their confidence is a weaker foundation.

The romantic writing presents a related but separate problem. Explicit encounters receive sustained attention, physical reactions, and sensory detail. Calling every intimate moment a bare sequence of actions would be inaccurate, and the magical exchange gives Alex and Emely's attraction a distinctive fantasy component. My standard also concerns what intimacy reveals about the people involved. Their first encounter follows danger, confrontation, training, and magical closeness in rapid succession. That explains urgency and desire but leaves less space for dependable emotional knowledge. Riley and Alex have a reflective exchange later, yet his thoughts frequently return to conquest and being in charge. I want intensity to grow from understanding the other person, including what cannot be managed by charm or strength. My concern with rushed romantic development remains consistent: adding explicit description cannot supply missing trust. The physical writing has room to breathe, while the emotional foundation sometimes makes do with gaps between larger events.

Pacing becomes uneven because the journey repeatedly stops for variations of the same information dispute. Alex needs an explanation, someone hesitates, he becomes abrasive, and the conversation negotiates whether anyone will answer. Some hesitation belongs to the characters: Riley and Emely have private history, and unfamiliar magic should leave uncertainty. Repetition becomes a problem when hostility delays information the group needs to share for survival. That differs from a quiet scene developing a relationship. My paws settle comfortably beside a slow-burning conversation; they grow restless when everyone circles the same obstruction. The jokes create a separate interruption. Alex's irreverence supplies energy, yet an admission of loneliness, a gesture of support, or the consequences of injury can quickly acquire a sexual aside or quip. Humor can help people cope; I still want the serious feeling to finish its thought. The writing often understands where vulnerability belongs, then seems impatient with the silence or discomfort required to let it have its full effect.

The power system becomes less satisfying as a source of uncertainty. Initially, a weapon getting stuck or magic exposing a location gives danger a comprehensible limit. Later, Alex increasingly feels he knows what to do, opens himself to another layer of power, or improvises a large effect through his body, sword, and surrounding magic. There are painful costs, genuine helplessness, and occasions when other people must intervene. Yet suffering during an upgrade does not establish the boundaries of the resulting ability. I often understand that a solution hurts better than I understand why it is available. The political opposition has a similar imbalance between strong menace and limited depth. The Covenant's surveillance, sacrifices, and suppression give the heroes compelling reasons to resist. Its internal workings and individual representatives remain less developed. I can follow the threat without needing a lecture on government, but distinct motives, disagreements, or everyday mechanisms of control would give this campaign a sharper identity than righteous champions opposing an overwhelmingly cruel power.

The wording needs a firmer hand where reactions accumulate around dialogue. Blinking, lip movements, narrowed eyes, shrugs, and explanations of expressions repeatedly accompany exchanges that already communicate the emotion. Alex often observes a reaction and confidently interprets the hidden state behind it. Another person's complexity can feel settled by his narration before the conversation earns the conclusion. His inward certainty about magic similarly reduces discovery. There are occasional awkward constructions and a brief shift to referring to Alex as “him” within his otherwise first-person account. Those are small editing weaknesses, separate from his rough vocabulary. Swearing suits his established voice, and conversational English can give an audiobook immediacy. My deduction concerns unnecessary verbal movement around a point and moments of unstable narration. Trimming that explanation would let sharper exchanges stand on their own and give characters room to reveal themselves through what they say. His companions deserve more space to speak for themselves.

Evaluation and Personal Impact

My connection comes through the possibility of belonging, and my reservations come from wanting that belonging to feel dependable. Games and audiobooks have given me an enduring appetite for unfamiliar rules, dangerous creatures, and companions with complementary abilities. I also need emotional development. My frustration with the rapid romantic progression in Dungeon Tour Guide involved too little connection between attraction and an established relationship. Here, I credit clearer discussion of relationship expectations and valuable vulnerability while still wanting a more convincing accumulation of trust. Continue Online engages me through its attention to what relationships and experiences mean internally. I bring that interest even when an adventure is lighter and more openly indulgent. Mathus's chosen gentleness and Riley's wish for a life beyond hiding reach that part of me. They suggest a pack worth protecting. Alex's growing willingness to accept responsibility can support that promise, provided the story gives as much importance to listening as it gives to taking command.

Conclusion

The closing stretch gives the volume a crisis and an immediate outcome before pointing toward a larger task. I appreciate receiving payoff before the next destination appears. Cooperation around the crisis strengthens the idea that survival depends on more than Alex's power. Still, the movement from serious consequences into food, banter, and future plans is brisk, and the broader struggle belongs to a continuing series. Adult listeners who enjoy a forceful portal-fantasy lead, rapidly growing abilities, explicit relationships, and a varied traveling party have plenty here to enjoy. Those who need carefully bounded magic, patient emotional development, or a protagonist whose authority is repeatedly tested may push back against it. My 2.92 reflects an appealing adventure whose strongest possibilities are held back by those weaknesses. The world gives me reasons for curiosity about another journey; stronger relationships would give that curiosity more staying power. I leave these tracks in HowlStrom with my ears turned toward the gate, waiting to hear whether the pack will grow as much as its champion.

[Pablo García]

I think this is one of those stories that require a complete rewrite. The author can't decide whether main character traveled to an alternate reality (same world in a parallel universe) or another world, and then it seems that the ruins were a gate to another world. Same thing happens with the sensual liaisons, that can't be vulgar and romantic at the same time. Also. you can't be in love and polyamorous at the same time. Same type of contradictions happen when the author writes about ethics, actions and consequences.... (Hervivore, Carnivore, etc.)
The main character (because of a back tattoo, imprinted on him the moment he traveled to this other world), according to legends, is supposed to be the savior of this other world. With no magical knowledge or any real super powers. With just security guard level martial arts training, is his enough to be the "Superman" of this other world?
There is no seduction, no real attraction and yet, everybody in this other world is someone to have sexual relations with. (well, except maybe the giant) but again, stories like these lack depth, lack credibility and need explanations that make sense.
I do not recommend this book or its fantasy-isekai-ed-novel series. It has no maps of this other world, no real world building (descriptions of geopolitical, geography, economic, social, religious, etc. systems in this other world), the characters aren't really described either (we do not know their details, personality types, values, etc.). There are no character summaries, no inside illustrations (there is weapon-clip art at the beginning of each chapter).

A Gem That Needs More Polishing

The first thing: this is a good story, and I want to see more from this author. The story, world, characters, and magic are all new and interesting, and draw you in. The spell-checking and general editing is well done too. Nice. So having said all that, here’s why the very best I can give it is 3/5: Discontinuity.

Maybe it’s just me, but the MC’s emotions and postures are all over the place: I simply can’t get a feel for the guy. One minute he’s strong and dedicated, the next he waffling, then he’s taking a jerky hard line. Bizarre. The first couple of times it happened it was so jarring I re-read the text a few times, sure that I missed a scene, then sure one got dropped in rewrites. It’s like the first sex scene: it happens, but we (I?) really don’t understand why it happens. It’s technically well written too, but you kind of scratch your head over it.

Multiply that by the dozens, then add in similarly inconsistent behavior by the other characters, and you’re left saying “Wait, what?” so many times that the story is lost. That’s a real shame, because like I said first thing, this book is good: as blueprinted, anyway. If it’s updated, with some transition scenes (hell, even sentences!) added, and character behavior solidified, then you will have a solid winner here. As it stands though, as much as I want to like it — and I DO want to like it — I just can’t recommend it right now.

DNR
Indiana Jones-esque main character gets magically transported to a world of fantasy, sword and magic. After a rigorous and far too detailed session of self indulgence of literally the first person protagonist meets, he together with the reader learn of the human-centric draconian rule (towards non-humans) that's being enforced by the world's political hegemon and the fact MC is the chosen one.

If reader is looking for some literary portrayals of doing the ol' horizontal, taking the skin boat to tuna town, bumping uglies etc. in fantasy setting this book is for you. Often neglected part in written texts is the olfactory, in this sense 'King's Gate' shines, but, oh, the genres and quality of writing it has decided to shine in is like a glass pebble at the bottom of dry pit.

Plot and realism weren't invited to the party when 'King's Gate' was written. Book generally targeted for self-insert types of readers who look for the vulgar unsubstantiated ladies' men, macho men.

Conclusion: 1/5. Listened on Audible included in plus catalog. Narrated by: Alexander Cendese. MC is based on outdated stereotype of offend-all, take no responsibility manly man. Some sub-genre of smut. Terrible value for the length of the book - 3.10 $/hour ( 25.40 $ / 08 hrs 12 mins ).

Values:
Terrible: >1.66 $/hour
Bad: 1 - 1.66 $/hour
Good: <1 $/hour
Dream: 0.4 - 0.27 $/hour

Folks, it's hard for me to give a bad rating to a book with any entertainment value but this one.....

To start, the main character is fairly two dimensional and is a horse's butt. The relationships don't seem to develop in any realistic ways. The plot lurches and jumps in irrational ways.

The worst part is, I just don't care about any of it. I don't care what happens in the future of the characters or if they win.

On top of this, I listened to it as an audiobook. Horrible. Why are all the accents British except for the main character?? And worse, why do the characters accents change during the book??

The books had hints of something good, which is why it got 2 stars. Maybe you'll feel differently. I will only say that in a genre subtype, that's a bit juvenile to begin with, I can easily come up with 5 much better written series.

This could have been something, but it needed a lot fixed first. Perhaps a good pre-read group that was able to give some criticism would have helped. I don't know.

To sum up, I hope the author gets better, but this would fail my writing class.

[James]

Maybe Im old fashioned. Main character is very ego-centric / bada$$ with brief moments that he cares for others instead of talking about how awesome he is. I really wanted more development of the other players. It tried but not very hard. Was written for the teenage customer. I could not get to know the people here. It felt like it was rushed and left out details important to the story, long term but was very, very detailed in the adult scenes. I liked Swing Shift better. I actually cried when a key member died, thats how much I felt I knew them.
Also on Audible the voice actor's females all sound the same, vice the strong English and Scottish accents. really threw me off. Dont care to try book 2.

[Drew]

High fantasy

Not for me. There seemed to be a mismatch between the stakes (saving the entire world) and the level of conflict faced by the characters (discomfort disclosing uncomfortable pasts)

This kind of drains the tension in the story. If we're told that a character is a future King of the World, then he's almost certain to live through fights with low-level mooks.

It also makes interpersonal drama weird. If the fate of the world hangs on Some Guy getting to a city, then conflicts with an ex shouldn't be a big deal

[Robert]

Made it to 45%

I am sure this story made sense in the author's head but something was off when he typed it in. Every single scene was confusing. As if there were entire paragraphs missing. This story have me a headache just trying to keep straight where characters where and what they were doing. Their emotions and dialog were jumping around faster than a cartoon character in a washer.

[Larry Coppock]

Enjoyable and Fun

I love a story told with humor and adventure. This book has both and appears to promise much more. It’s always fun to see how an author treats a storyline involving a dive from “now” into some fantasy world in another dimension. The excellent mix of characters and their individual traits adds to the author’s premise and enriches the whole minds eye while reading. Very recommendable for young adults and older.

[Alan K]

Magic with brute force

A great adventure begins with this book. Likeable characters, a great evil to defeat, what more could a story about a small band of misfits need? Thoroughly enjoyed, it even had a couple of steamy sex scenes which adds to the complexity of the relationships between the characters.

[Jessica]

Not appealing

Have not finished it. I find Emely very annoying. I am 35% of the way through and I need a break from her. I like strong female leads, but I find the character grating. Maybe I’ll revisit this novel and give it another try, it sounds promising and so far I like everything... except Emely.

[Ian Denner]

Not what I expected

Expected so much, delivered so little. This was pretty much my expos this book in one sentence. Up to this point I was a huge fan of the authors books, but I was underwhelmed by this one. The storyline was pretty pathetic, the characters me dimensional, the plot non existent. And I can go on.

[Raymond Thompson]

Fall in a portal what could go wrong..

It seems everything and nothing as well as something. Met an elf, a giant and a succubus in less than a week. Sounds like fun, find out you are the center of a prophecy, more fun. Learn the hard way !magic comes at a cost, well not so good. But onward and upward as they say. Just keep the 80s pop songs flowing.

[Dan]

Good story annoying main chracter

I enjoyed the overall concept of the book but just couldnt get over the whiney main character i intend to read the next one but pray the mc grows up a lot

[Drew]

I enjoyed it

Certainly better than some of the reviews would have you believe. Mind you the cover art is nonsense, how about drawing the actual characters!!!

Overall I thought it well written and the characters seem pretty authentic for what they are, looking forward to more.

[Mahesh]

A very good start of the series.

This is my first book of the author and Thanks to my dear friend Lori's good words I picked this up. I'd say I'm not disappointed in the least but I felt it could have been better. Hope it improves along the way!

[Joshua Kurtz]

I’ve found a new favorite author in Daniel Pierce.. just the right amount of spice and plenty of action to keep the story moving. This is the second series of his that I’ve sunk my teeth into and I’m looking for more!!!

[Michael Burnett]

Good first book

Good first book can't wait for the next in the series Daniel pierce is a great writer I like a lot of his work

[Terry Bean]

Good start

This is a ok start, I hope that it develops into series worth reading. The second book needs to better to continue reading this series.

[Andrew Gring]

Fun

This was a great start. I loved the characters.The action was great. I love harem books. Great sex scenes. Keep them coming.

[Irizumi]

Great read

Like this book and liked the MC a lot. Didn’t start overpowered and had to work at it to get used to being the chosen one. Looking forward to see what happens next.

[Douglas Hull]

Great

Defiantly worth your time to read, the effort to. It is awesome adventure fanciful romp through a new world as Alyx grows in his magic and his future.
