Death Awoken: A GameLit Series (Death God System - Book #1) Kindle Edition

by M.Q. Kajack (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.1 out of 5 stars 328 ratings

On a small planet, an unknown presence was stirring.

With no physical body, all of its previous memories messed up and without a clear name, our MC starts his journey. Fused on its soul a strange System that will help him be stronger on this strange unknown new world.

To claim back all that has been stripped away, he must first generate a body. For this, the system reveals that it needs to collect sufficient XP points by absorbing forces, death auras, regaining fundamental skills like talking and weapon wielding to go on dangerous missions. One kill equals one death point.

The more quests he goes on, and the strong beasts and humans slew – the more the Death Core whispers in his ear and torments his soul.

“I know one thing, Death brings me peace.”

This tale is a GameLit adventure that will have you rolling over the pages to see what consequences lie ahead! It is not for the fainthearted, it requires a steady hand, a strategic mind – and a strong stomach.
Death Awoken is the first book in the series: Death God System. A GameLit Wuxia / Xianxia adventure with lots of LitRPG elements.

    I was starving and reading this novel I was so engrossed I stumbled to the end in surprise. It has an Eastern feel to it, the protagonist seems to be OP but only just another frog in the well. The pacing is superb, I have hundreds of books in my reader and this is a good novel.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Has flaws, but is enjoyable slice of life cultivation LitRPG
    Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2018

    Note: There are noticeable technical writing issues that are mostly seen in the beginning and end of the novel. Issues: tense mixing, missing or misspelled words being the most common. It’s not a huge issue but it will bug some people.

    This is an OP reincarnation slice of life story with a cultivation power progression system. You still see lots of notifications though. The story starts off a bit differently than most reincarnation with the main character (MC) being an amorphous ball of energy for the first 12% and figuring out the RPG progression system and you can tell that the author was trying to figure out the kind of story he wanted to tell. But once it hits the 12% mark the MC gets a human body and it becomes a more familiar cultivation story with a wider look at the world and some human characters to interact with. The MC has some OP skills and most of the story from there on is about him traveling, adventuring, training, and doing slice of life stuff. No real plot or save the world stuff here.

    On the game mechanics side, though it’s cultivation based there are lots of familiar notifications that give it a regular game vibe. There’s an XP system the MC can use to advance his various death themed powers and to cultivate Qi and Body aspects. There’s a whole well described cultivation ranking system and it’s a well thought out progression system. It’s neat.

    Overall, I enjoyed the story. The story isn’t perfect. It loses some enjoyment because of the technical writing issues, that it gets a bit repetitive in the middle a bit, and that ends on a rather odd note. But if you’re in the mood for a slice of life cultivation story with an OP main character, this is something I think you’ll enjoy.

    Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2018

    Death Awoken has some interesting ideas, but many flaws that reflect the author's inexperience as a writer. He starts by going overboard with the slime-wannabe that eventually turns into a psychopathic Chucky. There is no moderation for this writer (and that's not a very good thing). I think he should slow down the pace and spending more time developing the characters and the plot.

    The grammatical errors really piled up at the later chapters. I recommend using Grammarly website to help catch some of the issues.

    The book ends on a very weird but depressing note (won't say more to avoid spoiling the ending), and I'm ambivalent about reading the next book if the author decides to continue this series. Readers love to see a happy ending for a reason. They (hopefully) are emotionally invested in the main characters in the story, and want the MCs to get a nice send-off into the sunset.

    The story is obviously a translation as the sentence structure is weird. Several parts are confusing and it starts off a little slowly. Once you get to the point the MC has a body it starts to pickup. Otherwise it is a good story.

    If you don't like unfeeling, power focused MC's then this is Not for you. Fairly good tale, though clunky at times. It was decent enough I'm about to read the authors other book. I just hope that the author does not turn into one of those that writes a bunch of book 1's but never completes anything.
