Publisher's summary

If you mix Sword Art Online and The Land, and make them both darker - Project Chrysalis is what you get in this new Gamelit series.

Chrysalis is the project of the century. It’s a hyper-realistic fantasy RPG set in the Middle Ages. Chrysalis is a perfect virtual reality game where every orphan under governmental care is placed in an in-game family to finally obtain all the love and care from the parents which kids need so desperately. But for one orphan who took part in this program something went horribly wrong.

Instead of a happy childhood Anji suffers from demonification. Being betrayed for the sake of someone else's master plan he finds himself in the most hopeless place of Chrysalis: Hell which is full of bloodthirsty demons, agony, and despair.

Sagie (Anji’s in-game username), empowered by homesickness and revenge, will go through Hell to face those who’ve taken everything from him. Cruel gods, bloody demons and game officers whose purpose is to keep order and safe balance, who will do their best to stop him on his crusade. The road will be long and gruesome. Blessed are those who struggle.

good story, good narration,

the story was good but there were some difficulties in understanding the numbers that were being put out for resistances. the narration was done well, and easy to understand. I saw there are four books currently out and I fear it will take audible five years to finish those four.

Great start

It's like dealing with a grown up w and then brains. They know he's smart but treat him as a kid so they don't expect what he does. Great.

This was a nice and unique book

The character was over powered but the bad situation he kept getting him self in was not his fault and they are what got him to be overpowered

great book, must listen

full 5 stars for world building, character development. this books isnt about some crybaby like u find in other books where all they do is complain for hours and in every chapter instead this character deals the hand hes given and overcomes the obstacles place in his path through some interesting ways. a bit of humor too. debating if you have dark humor only one part really. only qualm with the books is u get so lost in one world u dont really get the physical world and the importance of the game world to them. at least for me. lol.
