He Who Fights with Monsters 3: A LitRPG Adventure (He Who Fights with Monsters, Book 3)
N**A
Solid Trilogy with a rushed continuation added on
This trilogy is solid main characters whose journey from the first book to this third instalment perfectly depict a heroes journey and ended bittersweetly.It would have been a good story.However the 8, yes 8 epilogue chapters more than half of which concern new characters talking about new plot points smacks clearly of the author having scrabbled together a continuation to the series and needing to just justify it with rushed work like this. It all reeks of an author not wanting to let go of a cash cow that's going to devolve into a litrpg in the modern world apocalypse book.The whole situation where some new woman is going to be introduced and given super skills by six of the great astral being in the next book because the mc had the audacity to die fighting one of them and The Reaper is throwing a hissy fit over the mc reviving using The World Phoenix token he was given at the beginning of the first book it all reads like a literal metaphor for "Move over male you failed, now its time for super serious badass action lady literally blessed by godlike entities to fix all the mistakes"A man is more than just a sleeve you don't just switch out your MC and you sure as hell don't do it by shitting on everything you have built up until now.

Brilliant
Not a fan of LitRPG usually. But! These books are utterly brilliant. I wish I could remember who recommended them to me because I owe him/her a very big thank you. These are up there with GOT and Harry Potter. Seriously. Get them!

Good but not great
The previous books were brilliant however I found this one lacking in areas, I could get past the typo's and grammatical errors, however some potentially interesting battles were skipped or glazed over, skill and ability descriptions were far too numerous and the book as a whole seemed rushed and lacking the immersion of the previous two, on a whole though the series has been great so far and I hope the next book redeems the previous qualities of the series, also I hope Jason proves to be his old sarcastic and challenging self as in this book his character seems a lot more flat than the others.

Better but still some issues
Another really good book. Really enjoyed it and could not put it down.My only problem was that from 66% there were a lot more typos that were missed.

good story
Shame that there has been a ever decreasing focus on loot, although only a small part of hasn’t held true to the first novels. It’s the little things that make the difference between okay and great.

It gets better
A tough novel to take a break from reading. A rollercoaster of action just when it was needed in the narrative made sure that the excitement of the previous episodes was ramped up.

Still a good read
Still a good read but lots of abilities descriptors etc. got a bit to much and the story is starting to feel a bit convoluted. However still enjoyable and hopefully book 4 returns more to 1 & 2!
