My Review
Another instalment of Defiance of the Fall? Yes please. When you combine the length of these books with the two facts that they are an absolutely amazing read, plus there are thirteen of them? What more could your normal everyday LitRPG fan want?
So book three in the defiance of the full series centres mainly around the hunt that we've all been waiting for I know it's big trope in LitRPG books, but that never really stops us wanting to read them after all tropes are tropes for a reason and everyone loves them, right?
Let's be honest though if you've already reached this partner series you're probably going to know what's going on and you will know already if you want to carry on reading or not, given the sheer amount of content that you're receiving in each book.
Zach continues to grow in strength and wisdom becoming the powerhouse of the world that we all know he should be given the direction of the series but we also have a rich tapestry of secondary and supporting characters that grow with each passing chapter. A particular favourite of mine is Billy, who utters the immortal phrase: “Billy is not stuck with you you're stuck inside Billy!” Honestly there are some segments of laugh out loud comedy in the series though it's not particularly geared towards the comical.
The new world government is evolving into much of a protagonist which was kind of expected as nothing would ever be easy as the world government returns and everything's going to be fine. Instead they see Zach as a threat and although we kind of know that they've got some serious ulterior motives going on they've not done anything particularly harmful towards Zach.
This one is a serious page turner though because there are so many high stakes fights meditation self-improvement exciting interactions with not just Zach's friends, but also a number of creatures that he encounters along the way.
I'm looking forward to seeing how the protagonist grows and how the author holds him back from becoming too powerful that no one can stop him before he becomes the all powerful ruler of the universe.
