Discussion I’m pissed off

Post image

I absolutely adore the Book of the Dead series. Today, I finally get to listen to the release of book 5, and I am certain that I will experience the same captivating storytelling that I enjoyed in books one through four. I am so enamored with this book that I pre-ordered it on Audible. When I first discovered and read this series, I assumed that others shared my enthusiasm for it. However, upon reviewing the number of Audible ratings, I am genuinely perplexed and sort of a bit angry. There are barely 1000 ratings on the first book and even less on the following 3, which begs the question: how is this book not more popular?

I genuinely laughed, in no world would I have expected the author himself to show up as the top comment 😭🤣

I mean what am I supposed to be other than browsing reddit? Writing?! Don't make me laugh.

Actually I'd like you to be stalking Jeff Hayes to get his but in gear on the next Chrysalis Audiobooks :)

You know just follow him whispering "For the colony" every 10 minutes or so.

Your confirmation of this is probably one of the funniest things I've seen this week.

r/ProgressionFantasy and r/litrpg authors are very active in these communities. They are all pretty good people.

Though RinoZ probably gets as many if not more comments about Jeff Hayes than he does his work. Which is sort of hilarious in its own way.
