Eps 476 Jizz is a Music Genre

The magical world of Yensere holds the key to saving humanity from a horrific apocalypse. Too bad Nick can only get there in his dreams. 

When an ancient alien artifact chooses research cadet Nick to explore the world stored within it—a place full of forgotten empires, heroes with strange powers, and monstrous creatures that he is automatically transported to when he sleeps—he finds he has no choice but to grow stronger within the realm of Yensere to uncover its mysteries. 

But Yensere isn’t all fun exploration. In this land guided by statistics and levels, Nick is seen as a demonic threat by its diseased inhabitants and always killed on-sight. When he dies in Yensere, he awakens in his bed upon the research station, his body in a state of panic; when he sleeps again, Yensere drags him back for another life...and another death. 

Nick can only keep this up for so long before he dies for real. But there’s a good chance Yensere holds the key to saving humanity from a terrible fate, and so he ventures on, getting stronger and stronger with each new enemy defeated. And there are a LOT of enemies to defeat…


About the series: Join Nick as he adventures through the incredible world of Yensere in this progression fantasy isekai. Featuring multiple POVs, traditional LitRPG elements, magic and fantasy weaponry combat, friendships, light romance, and sarcastic robot guides, this is the perfect series for anyone wishing they could explore the galaxy and fight terrifying liches at the same time.

Level: Unknown By David Dalglish Read By John Patneaude (Audiobook Excerpt)

If you can't beat the computers, BE the computer.

Freshly unemployed gamer Arnold O'Connor is short on cash and facing eviction. When an indie game developer advertises looking for participants in a brain study to help revolutionize enemy AI, he's not thinking about the benefits to his hobby, just his bank account.

But things get weird once the trials start. Neuroscientists monitor his brain waves as Connor performs a variety of tasks, culminating in venturing into a testing version of the very game they're hoping to develop. The tests mess with his sense of reality, seeing things he can't touch and deafened to some sounds but not others. The game world operates on the same principles, forcing Arnold to wonder whether he's inside the game or just playing it.

The only way to find out for sure is to reach the end victorious!

Test Environment audiobook sample, narrated by Mikael Naramore

Former champions clash in a race to the top.

Rather than emerging victorious into the real world, Arnold O'Connor finds himself back at the beginning of Spires of Fate. This time, it's an alpha build he'd stuck inside, and he's forced to choose an entirely different class. With no outside help, he'll have to find allies within the game if he hopes to escape.

What's old is new again as parts of the game world have been fixed, updated, or simply overhauled. New challenges await. New adversaries threaten. And waiting at the top of the spire itself is a simple-sounding quest goal that supplants all others.

Slay the Mountain Lord.

Closed Alpha audiobook sample, narrated by Mikael Naramore

Open Beta audiobook sample, narrated by Mikael Naramore

They thought they knew the game. It knew them better.

Connor and Dizzy have a problem. The game has rebooted yet again. Their names have been stolen, and they're limited to the advanced classes they earned last time around. On top of that, the beta version of Spires of Fate had enabled worldwide PVP combat. It's going to be the two of them not just against the world, but against the rest of the player base, too.

But they know the game. They've got the experience. And the goal hasn't changed: get to the top and slay the Mountain Lord. And no dirty tricks by the developers are going to stop them.

Final Release audiobook sample, narrated by Mikael Naramore

You'll never become the main villain if you're not willing to die a bunch as the hero.

Arnold O'Connor is a gamer who just lost his office job to AI. Short on cash, he can appreciate the irony of taking a job at an indie gaming company looking to train their monster AI. But Anachronism Interactive isn't looking for just any players to copy from, they're interested in hardcore gamers.

After being run through a series of psychological tests while hooked up to a brain scanner, Arnold finally gets a chance to check out the game these scientists have been making. Already questioning his sense of reality after all the mind games and brain twisters, Arnold finds himself immersed in a world that's both utterly real and disconcertingly incomplete.

As each iteration of the company's flagship game releases, Arnold is drawn farther and farther into the alternate reality. And as the game world becomes more real, the real world begins to fade away entirely.

His only hope of escape lies in ultimate victory.

To save his people, Nick must slay the God-King of Yensere in this exhilarating sequel to the hit LitRPG, Level: Unknown!

The plan to kill God-King Vaan and free Yensere from the effects of the frozen black sun is finally underway. Nick has accrued an impressive array of friends: the guarded spellblade, Frost; the world-generated fire scholar, Violette; and their bodiless AI guide, Cataloger. But they will need more help if they are to build an army capable of slaying a god. Hearing of a potential usurper king—one who can defy death—leads them to rescue a broken champion, Batal the Beast.

Free from his bondage, Batal rampages against his enemies, claiming multiple victories against the God-King. But Batal’s true motivation is a guarded secret and he won’t hesitate to use Nick and his friends to get exactly what he wants.
 
As Batal schemes, and Nick struggles to grow in power, Frost breaks from the group in search of her missing sister. As they get closer to the truth and Nick learns more about the incredible girl who willfully placed herself in the Artifact’s grasp, they’ll find that sometimes the questions you want answered most are the ones you’ll wish you’d never asked…

Featuring multiple POVs, traditional LitRPG elements, magic and fantasy combat, friendships, light romance, and sarcastic robot guides, this is the perfect series for anyone wishing they could explore the galaxy and fight terrifying liches at the same time.

Level: Ascension By David Dalglish, Read By John Patneaude (Audiobook Excerpt)

Un audiolibro de Matt Dinniman, narrado por Iñigo Álvarez de Lara, con una duración de 13 horas y 36 minutos. Audiolibro completo GRATIS en Amazon ESPAÑA: https://amzn.to/3WR3gkc | Amazon AMÉRICA: https://amzn.to/47PGjmr

Carl y el día del juicio final es la explosiva segunda entrega de la saga Carl el Mazmorrero, una serie que mezcla fantasía oscura, humor, acción frenética y sátira gamer en un universo donde las mazmorras son tan letales como absurdamente divertidas.

Tras sobrevivir a los niveles de entrenamiento, Carl y su inseparable compañera Princesa Dónut regresan con más desafíos que nunca. El público de la retransmisión interdimensional exige espectáculo, y los creadores del juego responden aumentando los peligros al límite. Esta vez, los protagonistas deberán enfrentarse a una mazmorra colosal ambientada en Ciudad Superior, una metrópolis devastada por una antigua catástrofe donde los enemigos —desde zombis de circo hasta prostitutas que caen del cielo— parecen salidos de una pesadilla delirante.

Matt Dinniman combina lo grotesco con lo épico, manteniendo su característico tono irreverente, sarcástico y sorprendentemente emotivo. Detrás del humor negro y las referencias al mundo gamer, la historia explora temas como la supervivencia, la moral y el absurdo de los sistemas que convierten la vida en un espectáculo.

La narración de Iñigo Álvarez de Lara es impecable: ágil, expresiva y con un punto de ironía que encaja perfectamente con el estilo de la saga. Su interpretación da vida al caos controlado del universo de Carl, manteniendo el ritmo en las escenas de acción sin perder la comicidad ni el dramatismo.

Xavier P. Hunter was born at the dawn of the video game age. He grew up with a game controller in his hand, moving from Atari joystick through PS4 controller the way a hermit crab outgrows its shell. His little league was RBI Baseball, his first date was Princess Zelda, and his first unpaid internship was leading raids in World of Warcraft. He lives in a world of pixels and frame rates, coming out infrequently to eat and that sort of thing.
Most of his writing is done while patches download or when servers are down for maintenance.

Like most superheroes, he operates in meat space under an assumed name.

Rick Gualtieri loves to write adventure, mayhem, and snarky dialogue. His bestselling Tome of Bill series combines all of this into a world of supernatural danger with hard-hitting action and plenty of sharp-tongued geeky humor.

Rick lives alone in a dark, evil place called New Jersey with only his wife, three kids, and countless pets to both keep him company and constantly plot against him. When he's not busy monkey-clicking out words, he can typically be found jealously guarding his collection of vintage Transformers from all who would seek to defile them - Defilers Beware!
