The decision to start a new life is never an easy one, but for Joe the transition was far from figurative. Becoming a permanent addition to a game world, it doesn't take long to learn that people with his abilities are actively hunted. In fact, if the wrong people gained knowledge of what he was capable of, assassins would appear in droves.

A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

Story
Felix's life on Earth had become a series of dead-end jobs, ruined relationships, and rotating apartments smaller than most postage stamps. By all accounts, even his own, he was a coward. Too afraid to move forward, to take risks. Yet when given the chance to choose between risking his life or walking away from a deadly encounter, he didn't hesitate. Moments before his untimely demise, Felix was snatched from earth and thrust into a magical world known only as "The Continent". Empowered by the "System", he learns that he can strengthen himself through combat and dedication.

Publisher's summary
A new update arrives to the ultra-popular online game, Realm of Arkon. With Patch 17, the level of immersion experienced by players in their gaming capsules has made virtual reality indistinguishable from the real world. But every gamer's dream becomes a nightmare for Roman Kozhevnikov after he gets confined to Arkon against his will. And not just to Arkon, but to its deadliest zone - Demon Grounds. Playing - or rather living - as his character Krian, it's not just about survival for Roman. He longs to exact revenge for his banishment to the virtual world where the sensation of pain has reached 100 percent...

Story
A game is only a game if you can quit. This is something I learned the hard way. I just wanted to let off some steam in virtual reality and ended up getting murdered and imprisoned in the body of one of the undead - slow, clumsy, and cursed to die at the hand of other players over and over again. The only way out of this awful predicament was to find the legendary Scroll of Rebirth, but the helpless plague-ridden corpse would need to be turned into a real killing machine. If only people knew what it was like to level up a dead rogue....

Excellent story, great narrator...except...
Where does Patch 17 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
My favorite LitRPG novel so far.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Roman, because he's who we spend the most time with.
What three words best describe Zach Villa’s performance?
can't pronounce correctly
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I'd already read it, but the narrator sounded very similar to how I had imagined Roman sounding (except without a Russian accent).
Any additional comments?
Please ask Zach to learn how to pronounce words he's unfamiliar with prior to recording. Chitin, wily, err, reagent...the list goes on. He is a good voice actor but it really really detracts from his performance (and the enjoyment of the story).
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Usual LitRPG book, but interesting
Patch 17 does not stand out in the LitRPG genre. The genre is fairly new and many books are falling into the trope where the MMO locks the players in permanently and either kills them or puts the person's body into a coma. This is one such tale. It is an easy driving force for the story. Without it the story would need a compelling reason for the characters to stay in the game. Patch 17 also goes for the trope where most of the special and unique things happen to the MC.
It's not a bad book, and it is interesting, but the story really goes nowhere. The MC does have an end goal, but it's rather flimsy and vague, he'll get there eventually. But before that he has to level up. So off questing he goes.
There are a few other negatives to the book. Firstly, as you'll hear it throughout the book, the character and item stats readouts are awful and awkward. In the kindle version it's neatly laid out with a nice readable format, audible, not so much. Secondly, there are some character transitions where the jump cut is very quick and brief with hardly a pause. It can be a little confusing. Third, there are a couple NPC backstories that the MC has a vision of. They tend to be absurdly long and have little to no impact on the story going forward. Lastly, the book just ends without any kind of resolution to anything.
Despite all of this I will be getting the next book. I'm a sucker for the LitRPG genre especially when all the special events happen to the MC.

Best narrator/author story I've heard
If you could sum up Patch 17 in three words, what would they be?
Excellent LitRPG Adventure
What was one of the most memorable moments of Patch 17?
Any dialog - the narrator did a fantastic job capturing the different voices and attitudes.
Which character – as performed by Zach Villa – was your favorite?
The main character narrated in 1st person POV.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Trapped in a demon adventure
Any additional comments?
Probably the best narrator/author match up I've heard on Audible. The only draw back is the book is really two books; the main story told in 1st person POV with compelling voice and a second, novelette at the end with different characters and 3rd person POV told in a chatty voice; the change is very jarring happens at a cliff hanger on the first story which left me wanting the main story to continue, not a second story (nice it as was).

Partial
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Yes, but not the audio book.
Would you be willing to try another book from G. Akella? Why or why not?
The narrator does little to differentiate between characters. Hard to tell when the perspective changes. Makes it hard to follow and keep track of the conversations.
Would you be willing to try another one of Zach Villa’s performances?
Not at this point, to many other narrators that make the stories immersive.
Any additional comments?
The flashbacks really threw me off, got completely lost during these and took away from the experience

I wish I could join them!
I'm disabled and cannot walk nor even have a single day without pain so the idea of being able to join the characters of this world would be an absolutely enticing concept and if it were possible I would be sorely tempted since waking up able to walk again and NOT hurting every moment of my existence would be too much to resist. As for the story I loved it and would recommend this book to anyone who likes the description from the editor or whoever wrote it! To ARKON!!!

Not bad but it is messly written.
Any additional comments?
This story is unnecessarily fast, messy, and cinfusing but even so it is only not bad. It only requires all of your attention to have a foggy idea of what is going on. Honestly one minute you will have the characters talking to one another and the next they will be somewhere else talking to each other about things and events that were not explained about characters that were not introduced as if they were. The only redeaming feature of the story is it's kind of fun. Better reads by far would be Play To Live series or Awaken Online series or Shamanic Quest.

entertaining
this is one of the better written LITvrpg series that i've read recently, though it has its flaws. the main character is interesting and the story is mostly engaging. my biggest problem is the endless recitation of numbers and probabilities while he plans out his character progression out past level 200. most people are casual gamers who throw their stats in without much planning ahead unless they're following a guide FAQ, and the MC is supposed to be even less experienced than the casual gamer so its a bit hard to believe he'd bother (or even know about the stat generator). Moreover, its boring (unless you're an obsessive gamer yourself) to listen to five or so minutes of him talking about nothing but numbers and probability. its even worse because it happens multiple times in the book.
the narrator is pretty good but he mispronounces a LOT of words; from melee, to armor pieces, to the name of the iconic One Piece MC, Luffy (pronounced loo-fee). i don't think he has much exposure to lit/anime/manga/ rpg gaming cultures and it shows.
those complaints aside, its an interesting story where it seems like, so far, the more our MC give in to his rage, the less human he becomes. i can't wait to find out how he escapes the demon-ground and finds his sister.

Solid LitRPG with a side of Russian Machismo
I’d recommend this series to any GameLit enthusiast… Just know that this book is translated from the original Russian and as a result it suffers from the inevitable Russian LitRPG stereotypes. I normally don’t have a lot of patience for the “I’m a bad-ass and we don’t love them ho’s,” bravado that tends to come standard. However, in this series it feels like it’s overshadowed by the quality of the greater plot and world.
I want to say that this attitude is more toned down than in other Russian RPG books, but I don’t know if that’s just my perception. There are definitely flares of immaturity from the MC and the Madonna/whore dichotomy shows up occasionally. Although for the most part I found this audiobook to be enjoyable.
The narrator’s performance is really good with the glaring exceptions of when he regularly mangles 3-penny words… Let me just say that anyone who is narrating for a living should know how to pronounce “taciturn” or at least should be professional enough to look it up before they mispronounce it 6 times in the same book. It’s just unprofessional.
So, it’s a definite “buy-it” from me… with some caveats.

Something get's lost in the translation
I don't speak Russian, so I'm just guessing, but I feel like this series could be a household name, well in the homes of ppl who like LitRPG.
Idk if it's the translation, the narration, or if it's the cultural differences ...most likely it's some combination of all three. Regardless, I'd recommend giving the series a try.
The narrator does a good job, but he also talks a little fast and seems to gloss over important bits. Also, I think he doesn't quite deliver the drama and epic nature of the fight scenes. I think I might enjoy this book more if I read it for myself.
He def doesn't grab ur attention, it's easy to get distracted and all of a sudden find urself being lost wondering: where r we? what's going on? and how did we get here?
Main complaint, is the MC doesn't think for himself enough. He just goes along with whatever is happening around him. Maybe that'll change in the next book. Also other than one extensive discussion, which struck me as being too much info, the MC doesn't really take you through the process of deciding how to allocate stat points to develop the character. If you enjoy that sort of thing, then this book doesn't really do much of that.
