I think some of the reviews are overly harsh. I did hate the ending but I'll read book 2.

Don't bother with it it isn't good (though I think the beginning wasn't as bad.) I had some hope that an Academic could make an interesting MC but he becomes such a generic LitRPG MC once he switches worlds. Anyway the main weaknesses are probably crappy character writing and that the dialog was quite a few times of for the actual situation/story
Tinker uses scroll to see rune and asks "Do you see the world like that all the time" "Pretty much" ignoring that he has turned it of half the time at the beginning, based on the description the only thing to see at the moment is the ruins glowing a bit.
They go in the ruins and he says something about the source having to be behind the pillar (or some other obstacle) goes around it and attacks at the same time. First he has no reason to think there is a living being behind or that it is an enemy. Anyway they fight a bit he recognizes the enemy and they stop. But then the dialog is as if she started the fight, you were the one to attack her without provocation…
The book isn't the worst thing I have ever read but it has nothing redeeming to make it worth reading.

I'm going to say that the MC was a bit of a turn off for me in this book. The other characters didn't really get fleshed out. I kept reading hoping it would get better the longer I read and it's like it almost does and then it stops right before it gets to its feet. This isn't a bad book, but it's not a great one either. The characters are pretty much paper thin. All of them. And it's a run of the mill story. Man gets transported to another world, complains about how bad his old world is, but then wants to go back the entire book. The villain is secretly evil for reasons only know to them, and that's about it.
