A review by hectaizani
The Mayor of Noobtown by Ryan Rimmel
4.0
The protagonist names his character "Jim" and it takes about two-thirds of the book for him to find out why people react the way they do whenever he announces his name.
Funny, potty-humor, lit-RPG, novel about a man who finds himself a character in a role-playing game. He starts out knowing nothing and has to figure out how to flesh out his character sheet. Along the way he kills a lot of wolves, annoys some goblins, and makes a few friends.
The first in a series. I listened on audio so wasn't disturbed by the poor editing that some other readers have mentioned. Enjoyed it enough that I plan on picking up the second book to see where the story goes from here. The constant repetition of Jim's entire character sheet every chapter was annoying. We got it the first time, or the first five times. Pretty sure that's going to be a trend over the whole series though.
The audience is gamers. If you're not a gamer, and don't find typical gamer humor amusing you will not enjoy this book.
