PrimeVerse #3
Trial by Magic
Chaos is coming. Not even death can save Hudson this time.
The Vassal of Chaos has grown in power and she's coming to finish what she started.
Racing against the clock, Hudson and friends explore, fight epic beasts, collect tons of loot, and work together to upgrade their basic tribe to a full-fledged town.
Let's face it. They're no match for the Vassal of Chaos and they're directly in her sights. Even with their new powers, new magic, and help from an Archon of their own, what's to keep her from respawning over and over until victory is hers?
The risk is huge. If Chaos wins, all the rules of the game are thrown out. Do they have what it takes to defeat the most powerful player in the game?
Chances don't look good.
PrimeVerse: Trial by Magic is the final book in the first arc of the PrimeVerse saga. Filled with town-building, new systems of magic, and introducing factions, this novel opens up even more of the unique world of PrimeVerse!

Nicely wrapped with a bow on top, but....
There is still lots of story available in the Primeverse !
And that’s a very good thing. Please keep up the great work R.K.
Looking forward to the next set of stories, please don’t make us wait too long.... ;)

I had some trouble staying focused on finishing this; the MC, Hudson, is an idiot and I find that wearing.
The relationship between him and Madison is also tiresome. I understand if you want to keep it PG, but I found the whole thing distracting in the wrong way and added nothing useful to the story. If you really liked the earlier ones you may like this more than I did, but overall it's a "meh" for me.

Not necessarily a bad book. Just not good either. Been in my library for ages, just never got around to reading it. Which is the first bad sign.
Second is that it just was a little boring and a lot of ideas and concepts didn’t feel like they were thought out to completion. Like the world building. I liked the adjudicator parts from the previous books and the discovery aspects associated with it, but for the most part the world building stops there?
I also don’t like books where the MCs progression comes at a cost. Like losing levels or experience to push something else forward.

Alert
First, my review: “This was a fun book. I am glad that I read it. You should try it too.”
Second, I am not a bot...at least I don’t think I am. Yes this is copy pasta (just learned that term, so fun!) simply because I feel like any book I read deserves acknowledgement but at the same time my feelings on reviews conflict with the normal review process.
I enjoyed this book, so my goal is to promote it and help the author. If you are a potential reader, just stop reading now and take the above as all you need to know. I am not going to share my reasoning, thoughts on the book, or any opinions that would influence your decision to read it. It is my opinion that Art needs to be experienced at an individual level. You are the only one that can determine what you like and don’t like. Don’t let others make that decision for you. You should definitely read the book and completely ignore all of the reviews. Or not if you don’t think this book is for you. That choice is all yours and the beauty of art appreciation. You are a much better judge of what you will like than anyone here.
If you are a member of the IAK Guild (thanks, Jason) or part of the review police, feel free to criticize me and challenge my philosophy on reviewing art. I think we all love a good debate. The forums are open and I welcome your comments. I was wrong in my previous request to get you to stop. Your blatant disregard for that request has led to some fun discussions. Growth is important for us all.
Cheers

A Most Satisfying Conclusion! One of the most satisfying conclusions to a trilogy I've read in a long time. Everything I loved about the first two books continued logically and evolved sensibly. The characters grew and became more rounded. The story lines came together perfectly and left me wanting more. The game system was explored in more depth and new features popped up often. It was great! I had so much fun that I hardly put it down. The multiple epilogues were quite enjoyable and contain multiple surprises that I won't spoil here. Everyone should look forward to them.
I'm ready for an entirely new trilogy!

Good Ride, Completed Storyline
This story of a guy who was forcibly reincarnated into a brand new game world with no NPC or any infrastructure was fantastic. Everyone no matter how old they were are turned into eighteen year olds, along with the hormones and libido. Most live in a cave as hunter gatherers tribes. Great story
Book two would not allow me to review or rate it, some sort of glitch .

More please!
This trilogy was well written. I was moved by the characters growth. I enjoyed the world building and the game mechanics were strong and detailed but subtle enough not to overwhelm the plot. I am looking forward to more.

Great conclusion!
PV3 ended at a good stopping point but also made me excited to see where the author would take his series next! Worth the read :)

Great story.
A satisfying conclusion to this 3 book arc. The ending leaves open a possible new phase for the characters. Recommended reading for any LitRPG fan.

Quaking!
Fantastic book. Eagerly awaiting the next trilogy. Loved how far the book progressed and how perfectly it ended. Perfect way to set up the future.

Finally. A litrpg with an ending!
And a satisfying one at that. The final splat came through with an utter appreciation for the ebbs and flows of this story.

Smirk, smirked, smirking
Please let this author never use this word or any of its forms again! I like the story but please use a thesaurus for a different word.

This was a fantastic end to the main trilogy while also leaving it wide open for more to come.
I loved this series. Will be adding any future books to my TBR.
