Nice one!

Sehr gutes erste Buch, einer spannenden Geschichte.
Der MC ist glücklicherweise kein Trottel. Das erdachte Universum ist interessant. Ich freue mich auf den nächsten Teil.

Solid

The beginning sounded familiar, but the story became more original over time.
It total this is a great, solid book if you like the genre.
Narration wise, there was one thing I did not like: the perspective switches, but they were tolerable.

The narrator was good, but the performance was reduced by occasional soundeffcts (echo, chorus, screaming,...) that were not leveled to the other audio. This is listed as audiobook and not as radio play, so dear production team: please stop using those anoying effects. Jeff Hays does a great job, there is no need to exeggerate the performance with effects. I´d prefere a pure audiobook without effects.

A great story with minor flaws

First of all i would give 4.5 stars for this book as it is really good. I decided to go with 5 since i feel this series is going to be a step above a lot of the drag this genre produces.

The book starts like almost any ordinary regressor story with the mc being unable to stop a great evil, regretting a lot of things and gets thrown back in time. This concept is nothing new but in this work it's plausible and well executed.

After this part the rest of the first half of the book is feeling really slow and i struggled to keep listening to it.

As the Journey unfolds and more characters get introduced the book gets more interesting. I for myself think the characters and interactions are the main selling point of this. All of them are well written and the baroque atmosphere is a pleasure to listen to, it is fun to listen to an old man in a young body struggling to behave young again.

For the narrators performance, Jeff Hays is a staple in this genre and did some really really awesome work with Dungeon Crawler Carl and Life Reset both of which i consider a must listen as they are really really good. Sadly i think this work does not fit Jeff Hays that much and i would have preferred someone like Peter Berkrot or Travis Baldree.
He still did a great job and it's not his fault the setting does not fit him as much. Maybe that's also just my opinion.
The added "Soundeffects" were in my opinion rather bad so please don't add them in future works.

All in all this series has great potential and if you are on a fence for buying it please consider it as it is above 95% of other litRPG/Regressor storys.

Great Story, Voice Actor took a minute

Story is pretty interesting.
Deckbuilding is the main "mechanic" but not so pervasive as to smother plot or character development. World building is decent, but leaves a few holes.
Major plus point are the characters. Well written, believable and no cheap tropes.
If I had one complaint, it might be that for now it seems to be a bit too easy for the main character. However it is still no childish power fantasy, as you find so often in this genre.

The speaker has a rather prominent accent (Northern English, Yorkshire I think, like Sean Bean) and for non-native speakers, it might be a bit hard to understand at first.
But I got used to it after 1-2 hours.

Good story

Good story and the MC doesn't act like a 6 year old. Didn't care for the sound effects so i deducted a point from the speaker section as there is no special section for that

Looking forward to more

Fun start to the series. In a way it does have an "introductory" feeling to it, easing us into the world and teasing a lot of information. Nonetheless it was a nice listen, which in itself makes me hopeful for what else the author has in store for us. Really glad Jeff is the one narrating this, makes the experience even better.

Really solid first book

I like the idea of the story and the card system is interesting too. The MC is not an idiot and side characters are interesting 👍.
As a first book it sets up Plot points nicely for future books.

Solid start from Kerberos

Enjoyed the whole audio book from the start and would recommend it definitely for fans of LitRPG. It’s an well written start for the series and the Author is never boring with his choice of words. Jeff did an awesome job with this reading here, looking forward to book two.
