Realm Of Arkon

Author: Akella, G.
Real of Arkon is basically the MMORPG Everquest meets Diablo video game made into an LITRPG. I would not recommend this book as your segway into the world of LITRPG, however. It's more of a hardcore read, best appreciated by those who get their digs from The Way of the Shaman series, Mirror World, and the like.This one is sort of the 'Military LitRPG' of the genre with a lot of focus on the minutia of big battles and the strategies involved.This one has a lot of focus on Dungeon Crawling -- i.e. the protagonist slaves away, inch by inch trying to complete dungeons. You might say this one is the 'Diablo' inspired LITRPG. The protagonist is literally stuck in a sort of gaming version of Diablo but stuck in nightmare difficulty where you can actually die and die and die some more.For the hardcore LITRPG enthusiast, the Realm of Arkon stands above some of the other books in the genre.It's by no means the best (the protagonist is a Gary Stu through and through and is pretty much just handed unlimited power from the start without working for it), but the plot is decent (as LITRPG goes), and you kind of want to see how things progress over the books.As of now, there are 4 books out in the series. Like all these LITRPG though, these ones are best experienced through the audiobook versions. It just makes consuming the whole 'character improves stats' readouts every other page far easier to digest.
