A joy to listen to

Absolutely incredible all around
The narrator hit this out of the park. Just so incredible.

still my fave series

you can tell this is an author's first book but is amazing.

seems like having a story that structured would be difficult.

Definitely worth a go

I really enjoyed this book. It has an interesting approach to the genre with good pace and elements that generate side plots with great potential. The main character is is well done formed and runs the tight rope of not being overpowered but still being more capable than he should rather well.
The only real criticism I have is the way some authors have of getting too much mileage out of a particular turn of phrase. One such author (not this author) had nearly every character “smirk” a response, action or thought weather it was appropriate or not and this was so prevalent that I couldn’t continue with the book. In this case the author comes close with the “eyes flashing” phrase, although not nearly as bad.
All in all I’d very much recommend the book and I am keen to get the second in the series when it is released.

Pretty damn good!

It's great to see a concept so readily put into comics and anime portrayed in this book, not once was I bored or losing interest in the happenings of each chapter.
Everything is very well explained and no details left out, so you don't end up ask how this and that happened later. Last but not least is the pacing which I thought was on point, nothing felt rushed and the MC was working at good pace instead of a 1 to 100 kind of deal.
If you're a fan of this kind of thing then I can without doubt say you'll find some enjoyment in this book.

Wow, fantastic!

I have hundreds of audio books in my library and this one is easily in my top ten favourites.
I was hooked within the first 20 minutes.

It's not really "reborn"

The concept of timetravel is introduced into this book, and so far, I have also read, not just heard these books, the concept isn't dealt with in the most believable way. But if you can suspend the glossing over, of the time-line paradox issues, then the books are a great read. Character progression is fun. Even as he is "re-inventing" himself, with forward knowledge. The side characters are also fun, but are side-lined in each "realm". At least so far. I am hoping that the next book in the series, will bring the story together a bit, and bring back more cohesion to side characters that have been ignored in the latest books. The voice is "clean" easy to listen to, and at no point was I annoyed by the speaker. The story itself is quite interesting, and a good read. The only reason it isn't a 5 is because this deserves to be compared to some of the best books in the genre. It really does, and there it is very close, but as the book tries to be original and succeeds, there is a reason other authors haven't tried the same, it can be complicated to write a story. And sometimes, there are minor misses. Not in terms of contradictions directly. But awfully close. And for me, that takes off a point. But the whole series, is so far, a solid read. Love it.

Great Story, Amazing voice acting

I've read quite a few of these "Hero goes back in time to save the world" type of books. That being said, this is one of the most action packed and interesting iterations I've ever listened to.

PRO's
The intelligence and planning ability of the hero is understandable as he's essentially done this before and i cant help but get excited to see how he plans to overcome every new obstacle that comes his way.

The main antagonist of this volume actually acts in a way that you would expect an intelligent but immoral character to behave.

The action scenes are well designed and definitely gets my blood pumping.

I cant stress this enough but THE VOICE ACTING WAS AMAZING. Adam Stubbs manages to portray the sheer strength and experience of the character with every sentence he utters.

CON's
Would like to see the protagonist interact with broader range of characters in consequent novels.

This was too short (If i was being honest, i'm only complaining about this because i enjoyed it so much)
