Summary
Jack Jensen is a middle-aged nobody who lives a lackluster life in an even more uninteresting town. Having sampled every job the small town of Merrill, Wisconsin has to offer, he has excelled at nothing but growing his beer gut and his luxurious curly, chestnut brown hair. His life is one of unrealized potential and lack of direction.
Things change one morning when his brother, an Army Major, lands his helicopter in the parking lot of Jack’s less-than-profitable gaming store in a desperate bid to thrust the perennial slacker into the role of saving the country, the world, and even more unlikely, himself.
Heroes of Last Resort is a LitRPG series that features leveling, detailed character systems, epic world saving quests, and much more. The story features a middle-aged MC born in 1975.
The Other Guys series style is more like a tabletop RPG than a videogame but each main character in the series has a personalized "AI-type" personality that is different depending on the character. Most of the story takes place in a fantasy realm separate from our own with people from Earth being sent through to the world of Rigara via magical portals.
Heroes of Last Resort contains:
- Detailed character system
- Epic world saving quests
- Fantasy violence
- Character sheets / system interface
- XP / levels / skills / character perks
- Rat Damon

Promising start
A nice beginning but I felt that far too many pop culture references were shoe horned in that it was taking away from the story rather than enhancing it. Performance and voices were great as always from all SBT production

Great performance by Soundbooth Theatre
Good book, a bit short on contents for one credit if you ask me. The book revolves around mostly assembling the group and getting to know the system and leveling.
Its a standard LitRPG with some laughs on top.

in my opinion, it's an interesting idea, story wise also a good introduction into the vast amount of litrpg story's on audible and the Internet as a hole.

Nothing great here
I've listened to this book before and it mustn't of made an impact. I'm going through my library again relistening to stuff and I've come across this one.
I just didn't care about anything going on in this book. I doubt I'll go for book 2.
I thought Alexa was going to go nuts every time the name was used lol
