Tartila Mine (The Alchemist Book #5): LitRPG Series Kindle Edition

by Vasily Mahanenko (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 553 ratings
What are you supposed to do when the whole world joins forces against you? Give up, find some hole to duck into, and beg for your life to be spared?

But even despite how obvious the answer to that question might be, many an adult had been dashed on the rocks twelve-year-old Tailyn Vlashich was supposed to climb. Ahead of him lay a secret laboratory belonging to the ancients; behind was a horde headed by his sworn enemy.

But through it all, Tailyn had those who loved him, those who believed in him, and that support was enough to carry him to the ends of the earth. There was just one question left to answer: who was the Absorber? And what did he want with Tailyn?

Review

★★★★★ Wildwily - It's been a few months since I read the previous novel and that didn't help me diving into this one. This book picks up directly where the last left off, without any explanation or recap. For that reason, I found myself having to piece together who was who and what exactly was going on. At a certain point it all clicked and I was following along. That would also be when the pace accelerated. The ride to the end was wild. The good news is this ended the series quite effectively. A few scattered typos. Family friendly, if a bit destructive. You really should re-read at least the previous novel before attempting this one. If you are a fan of the series, it is worth it.

★★★★☆ LitRPGPodcast - This is the conclusion to the Alchemist series, though not necessarily the end to the adventures of the main character. There's lots of action and adventure. And those teasers for that other character from the author's other series showing up absolutely pay off. If you've enjoyed this series then this last book is a must read. Score: 7.8 out of 10

★★★★★ Coleman - It's one town against the world and the world is a very petty AI. Our hero meets the previous hero and gets a good look at what "winning" looks like. A great ending to a solid series that cut the Gordian knot of dangling plot threads down to something more reasonable. The ending is a hard twist but everybody gets what they deserve.

★★★★★ Karel - Great series. The series just keeps getting better and better. You can see that the MC has developed a lot though the books. Looking forward for the next book.

★★★★★ Kindle Customer - Honestly the best series I've read. First book was weaker I've even droped it for a while, but the rest is pure gold. Im not book worm or critic, so the only thing I can give you is my feelings of this series and they scream READ IT.

Vasily Mahanenko is a fantasy and sci fi author and one of the original founding fathers of the new genre of LitRPG - the MMO-based fantasy and sci fi. His debut novel The Way of the Shaman series took literature by storm in 2012.

Vasily dipped into his college-days insider knowledge as a hardcore gamer in order to create a believable world of the virtual-reality MMO game. His bestselling series combines fiction and video games, telling the story of Shaman and his friends stuck in the ruthless reality of Barliona. He used his more than ten years' experience as an ERP implementation project manager to approach his writing in a well-organized manner, working to a strict schedule, a set of deadlines and even a budget. The entire body of Vasily's works to date is available on Amazon now, with new books adding as he comes up with new fantasy worlds and stories.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Decent series, but skip audible.
    Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2021

    The series has been good so far and this book really was a surprise as the series had started to get old, but book 5 was a nice change of pace.

    I bought audible this time and I was dissappointed. The narrator's reading was grating...it followed an wierd lilting pattern that just rubbed me the wrong way. He did it less when he was "speaking" as one of the characters, but it was really prevalent anytime he was narrating. It wasn't awful, but it seriously bugged me for some reason.

    Note, this series is definitely targeted towards a younger audience as the MC is like 13yrs old.

    This was exciting until it wasn't, but then it and again not until it was again. Ya lost me too. All the prior stories in this series were mind blowing until this, the Final Installment, then not so much. Maybe should have been a part A & part B.
    I got lost after the big battle that so much time was spent preparing for then didn't actually happen instead the story changed.

    I was seriously let down after putting so much time into the series.

    Unique magic system, reasonable character progression, compelling adventures. Not a huge fan of the character progression at the end. Even more so when it didn't appear to be overly relevant/necessary.

    Tailyn and friends are reading Mean Truk for war, when they are informed that they need more resources or they will perish. The options are Tartila Mine or Gravik, the enemies - experiments and unnamed beings or the deceased general One!
    Some interesting interactions between Tailyn and the System, along with the return of favourite weapons and characters.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Not sure if I'll read number 6
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 5, 2022

    There's just too many loop holes and lapses of logic that turn impossibly fortuitous. "I'm just going to leave those 2 bad ass robots there. I apparently don't need them." *several chapters later* "thank god I left those robots alone for absolutely no good reason as it has miraculously saved the day." He had enough time to get the lizard to the lab. He could have reset his points earlier (before the nerf) and wiped out all the experiments. The acients didn't know about the river - but they also put traps in it. There's more in each of the previous books but I simply cba.
    Also what's up with having someone declare war on you, lay seige to your city, hack through your portal (wasn't that banned? "No it only works the exact same but it has a different name". Yeah okay.) Starts killing your people - only then system punishes you for killing them? I thought it liked "balance"? "You're under seige! Kill all your opponents to survive and win! (However you're not allowed kill your opponents or you will be punished... Good luck!)" It's depressingly moronic.

    I'd still say it's a fantastic series despite my obvious issues. The blatant set ups, and varied contradictions are worth the pleasure of reading
