This is third in a LitRPG series. Read in order.
You know pretty much what you are going to get in this one. Only, the fallout of the last with Max giving in to his black skill to save his friend has some issues. Issues that mostly manifests as free-range drama as Max fights with the darkness of his skill that has now become something personified within him. And his friends have some extra drama as well.
None of this is terribly dark. It was just a drag I didn't appreciate. Maybe because it was predictable?
Anyway, more of the same with the same strengths that make it a fun power fantasy. It isn't getting better, but isn't getting worse, either. So I'm still game, though it's still only three stars.
A note about Kindle: I had the same issue as I did the last book. I can't open it on anything but my phone. Which is a drag.
A note about Chaste: Max and Tanila make some progress. And finally give in to their burning lust. Sigh. Okay fine, they wander into admitting to having feelings. The author drags it out for drama, but eventually, they do the deed. Off-page. So this is chaste enough for me, though it is clear that they are, er, intimate.

Good, great even, story heavily doused in issues
Story is pretty good at times, but the lows are really obvious to the point of being distracting. This is genuinely the most spelling and grammar mistake-riddled book I’ve ever read. Sometimes words are just missing in sentences or still have dashes between word options. It feels like a rough draft.
Another con: the characters laughing every few paragraphs. Why does every single character crack jokes and guffaw at normal comments and in situations where they definitely wouldn’t be joking? Utterly baffling how often a “curse” like “holy elf x/hairy dwarf x” is said and illicits a sitcom laugh from the entire party. Why is the room laughing at surface level observations like “dwarves love drinking!”? It’s very strange.

A lot of useless scenes
This book didn't accomplish much. A lot of fighting, most of it pointless. A ton of scene transitions should have been deleted. The amount of times the characters say holy elf this or hairy dwarf that gets mighty old fast. It's not original or funny.

Ultimate Level 1: Shattered Boundaries continues the story of Max/Seth and his dungeon party.
Pros:
Hey look, editing! After the first two books were formatted like a very long business letter, this book actually uses literary formatting. Nice!
Interaction with more characters is helping develop the MC a lot better than all the inner thought exposition in the first two books.
Cons:
The primary conflict is pretty far removed and hasn't been revisited since the first book.
There could also be some conflict/moral dilemmas that help shape all characters. Right now the MC is a good guy, and he hangs out with good people. They don't really have a lot of depth to them.
It's a good read, and I've enjoyed the series. Looking forward to book 4.

Ultimate Level 1: Shattered Boundries
What a ride!! This is wild going on insane! I don't know what else to say, I started out just looking for a book to pass the time, and I came upon this series. It has been phenomenal! I know not everyone will agree with me, but, please, read them for yourselves, tell others about them, and enjoy!

Very close to 4/5, especially with that last 20% or so. Overall it's repetitive but also weirdly slow, considering they leveled a ton in this.
July 26, 2025
Well I am definitely happy I decided to give this series a go! The pacing is great and the progression of our MC is exactly up my alley! I am enjoying the ride!

Without an antagonist, the story is solely driven by dungeon dives which power-up the main characters. The only excitement I felt was during the dungeon break.

Despite what I'm about to write, I will say that I have just enough curiosity left to push me to read the next book in the series.
I still think the Consume skill is interesting. I do like the variety in dungeons and am looking forward to seeing what the tower is about. The introduction of the Faction is promising.
The fights are getting repetitive. I think they sort of fall flat because the conflict isn't quite ironed out yet. There are hints at a larger context/struggle, sure. There's some interior conflict with the MC, yes. There's still something missing. I don't know that fight-win-level-and repeat is enough to keep my attention. For that, I need characters to care about.
I want to care more about these characters. There are attempts at backstory. There are moments outside fighting which I think are important to have, but the drinking party stuff just doesn't work for me. It mostly drags on too long and ends up falling into the same place the fights do--minus the leveling.
The main barrier to my enjoyment of the characters is the banter. Banter should be a joy. It should be witty and should deepen our understanding of the characters and their dynamics. Most of the attempts here fall so very, very flat. It is just not my cup of tea at all.
And the worst?
The swearing. I have complained about bad swearing in other reviews. I love a clever curse. I don't require sanitized language. I do want well crafted swearing. I want the swearing to matter. The swearing in this book is repetitive and juvenile. I hated it so much I did a quick search.

I know that writing is difficult. I know that this person probably put a lot of effort into it. I respect that. If a reader thinks the swearing is fun or easy to ignore, there won't be a problem. It bugged me and dampened my enjoyment so I vented my frustration here.

Book three is a great entry in the series with loads of action and lots of moments to make you laugh out loud.
This book made a turn to be mor like book one than book two, and it was a really fun read because of that. We get really solid progression not only with the litRPG aspects, but with character growth, and also character relationships. The comical interactions between the group makes it all the more enjoyable, and comes across the way friends actually talk to another. This character byplay is one of my favorite things about this series. It's not fake like so many other books. If people are hunting and killing monsters in a dungeon they aren't going to communicate like they all work in an office job, and this hits the right note perfect for me.
Finally book three had a real ending, and set up aspects of the series plot from back in book one to come out in book four and beyond. My missgivings about the black skill seem to be wayning, but I don't know if that is an attempt on the skill's part or if it is the author backing off the aggressiveness of it. I hope it is the second one, but only time will tell I suppose.
Overall this is a book where a group of unique and fun characters kick all the asses and make fun of one another in the process with lots of drinking and fun spread throughout the battles. I could see how it could get repetitive, but so far it is just a fun simple read for me. I expect as the group grows we'll get more series plot effecting them, and that should both be refreshing, but hopefully not to the point of overwelming all the things in this series that makes it fun.

While still a good book, this is the weakest in the series up to this point.
Strengths:
There is more reveal of the guiding forces working behind the scenes that are directing and mentoring Max's rise.
Max's skills and gear is a mish=mash of items. This really makes sense with how he is acquiring them. He is not a golden boy, but a scrabbler for everything he achieves.
There are two level 50 dungeons at the end. One has a unique twist on acquiring a boon.
Weaknesses:
There are two level 50 dungeons at the end. The other dungeon is in an arena with an audience. This is almost an exact replica of another dungeon event by another author in another series.
The trash fights are becoming repetitive.
The listing of stats and skills, while required in this genre, is getting very lengthy.
***This book is clearly self-edited, or edited by a friend who only gave it a quick once-over. There are typos. There are possessive apostrophes where they don't belong. Cut and paste sometimes misses an insert point, with a word that should have been in the middle of the sentence, dangling at the end.
Word order sometimes drastically changes the meaning of a sentence and is jarringly out of place with the historic flow of events:
Had he defeated the demons, then...
He had defeated the demons, then...
Only one of those sentences is correct, and the wrong one was chosen.

i enjoyed the first book well enough, and even the second despite it needing some more editing. this third one though, there's lazy copy/paste work, missing words, unfinished sentences and juvenile humor that just make it painful to read. if anything, the characters become less developed and we get an awkward romance story forced in. i made it to 3/4 through this one, got to the birthday party and couldn't stand it anymore. everything that's potentially interesting quickly becomes boring, and feels like you're just slogging through it while trying to figure out what the author meant with all the gaffs - at one point the characters are in a yeti dungeon fighting yetis in one paragraph, the next paragraph it's killing trolls, then back to yetis, for example.
the series so far has been written at about a grade-school level, which i could forgive if the author put any care into editing or developing the story and characters. but i looked at the series and he cranks out one of these every couple months (there's 5 more now since last summer) it's pretty easy to see how much actual work he's putting into them. so, i quit

Good read but...
... this book series needs a solid series of edits.
Most every chapter has words that need to be fixed. Wrong your/you're - there/ their/they're all over the place.
In one place, there's an obvious copy/paste of about 3 paragraphs duplicated.
The story is fun enough to keep me trucking through. But you can literally see where the author was tired and just never went back with anything more than a spellcheck in word.
I'm going to keep on, but it's a few books in, and the quality doesn't seem to be getting better on the edit front. Story is starting to take off and the description of fights is epic at times, and the gamer in me loves the exploites they find for the missions in places.
It would just be so much better if I wasn't taken out of the story by trying to figure out what word was meant to go after "dragon" . Instead I get to figure out what word starts/contains "g" that could follow Dragon in that sentence..
Thank you, Shawn. I'm rooting for you. I appreciate the ride you are providing! 5* easily if we can fix the edits needed.

Man... I love to have interesting romance in my fantasy/litrpg... but "this ain't it chief".
The MC more or less ignores the request for space from the love interest... and bombards her with constant nonsensical pronouncements of love and affection. It's written from the perspective of how your typical SIMP imagines relationships should work, and it's pretty painful to read at best and cringy as shit at its worst.
Outside of the romance, its a pretty mid read, with no real progression of the story outside of random numbers go up LITRPG stuff. If I didn't already pick up books 2-4 after enjoying the first book, I would drop the series altogether.

I found it extremely repetitive to the point I started to skip fighting scenes because it was just so similar. In the end I was happy that the book was finished. It is definitely not a page-turner.
The "she blushes" "he blushes"... after slaughtering people and monsters in the hundreds it feels kind of ridiculous.
Dwarven ale party; [sighs]
I have not decided if I should read the next book yet, but I am a bit curious about the tower, maybe then the story will finally become more interesting.

Good progression the story. Lousy editing
First of all, the author NEEDS friends who will tell him, "Holy elf tits! You need to edit your work!" And hand him a red lined or highlighted manuscript that shows all of the sentences that were left wrong that were published.
The story continues to grow and we are given hints of a grander game afoot that has Tanila worried. Gets a little redundant constantly hearing Max talk about protecting his family. But it is nice to see the huge surprises the rest of the group stumble upon.
Have fun!!

Well not bad
The writing was not bad. I believe the first four books have received the audio treatment if that's more your thing. I can't speak as to the quality of the narration. I believe that at the time of this review six books are out in total. As far as my personal taste is concerned I liked the book and would be interested in continuing the series. There's a couple of scenes that don't really make any sense to me. And then the ending was well, I can't use the 90 slang anymore so we'll simply call it peculiar.

editing took a dive off a cliff
I’m really enjoying the plot of this series, and the first two were really strong. However, something happened with this one where it feels like it wasn’t even proofread. The poor editing in this book (countless grammatical errors, misspelled words, random punctuations, at one point there’s just a floating “g” in the middle of a sentence?) combined with the relentless cringe “in world” swearing (someone at one point literally just says “Human balls” as a curse due to something happening) makes this a 3 star book.

Great read and series.
This is definitely one to pick up and read. Love the progress the characters are making both as a group and through the dungeons and cannot wait to see what the tower has to offer as they reach their goal of level fifty. Also looking forward to a new character dynamic with the group, beyond relationships.
Love this and am starting the next book this instant.

Another great installment. Great romance. Great interpersonal drama. Out of the box ideas to beat a dungeon.
I also like how finally Tanila gets to shine. She's been a CC bot forever. And it was just weird max would be fighting for his life as she just watches. Now she is a force of nature and actually DPSs.
I think it's so comedic to carry rocks in storage to throw at monsters.
I get why Max gave up the potion but let's not do that anymore.

This book is where I really started to have trouble with the series beyond how the characters/banter weren’t working for me. Its tension is that Max might be discovered at any time, so they all have to push to level up as fast as possible, but they don’t really feel like they take it seriously. If this is a min maxing power fantasy, Max could be doing a lot more, as well as so much of the characters success is from godly intervention that the threats fall flat.

Good continuation but...
Really enjoyed this most recent installment, good characters and relationships however it is one the most in need of proof reading,names mixed up at times and a few sentences with a random letter, or that just don't make sense. If you can handle that, go for it

Impressive! I have really enjoyed this series so far. A lot of imagination, humor and progression in the journey. I have not read many series that have kept me interested this long. They usually bog down and become less interesting to me. There are enough new developments as the story progresses that keep me reading. Thanks!

Not bad
At times it gets kinda boring other times it just bounces around. On a litrpg point I think some of the skills cool downs are too long for what should be a regular use thing , I get it if it's maybe a legendary skill or so but honestly no important skill should be more than 24 hrs and not for some rare skill or uncommon

Continuing the Adventure
Max Hoste (Seth), Tanila, Fowl, Bertire. Continue to adventure. While Max dodges assassination attempts by rogue elven elements. His powers continues to grow, as he continues to grow in leadership and skills. Love this series and watching his team grow as well.

Great book 3.
I like the team interactions and the many one liners during their harvesting had me cracking up
Quest and skill choices follow a logical course.
I thought the MC should have been a little upset when they found out things about the team when the team was pushing for everyone to be honest, and the MC came clean in the last book

Good story, bad editing
Really good plot, and some decent twists and character development. Biggest issue is that the editing in the last 30-50 pages is rough. Missed punctuation, typos, grammar issues, it's like the editors and author stopped reading towards the end. I look forward to the next one, but hopefully the editing style will be a little more professional.

The characters are grinding out levels, but reading the novel is no grind. An enjoyable read for those who like the LitRPG. The Series' use of stat blocks is subdued enough that they can be easily ignored by those who are not interested in them and simply want to get on with the story.

Big developments here!
I really like the direction the books are taking. The multiverse is expanding and our protagonists are finding danger and opportunity in equal measure. The only thing that really detracted from my reading experience were a number of typos or formatting errors.
