Year 2286. Alex Bell has put in 20 years of work in the VR game Eternal Dominion—a full dive fantasy VRMMO game that accounts for around 20 percent of the world's economy. He had risen to the top as a vice guild leader, and thanks to his work, his guild was steps away from truly standing with the other top guilds. Only fate decided to rip it all away at the last moment. After his fall, Alex awakens to see his 18-year-old self looking back at him in the mirror.

It's 2266, and Eternal Dominion is set to launch in a matter of hours. But this time, things will be different. This time, he will succeed in life and make sure his friends and family are along for the ride, even if he has to drag them along to do so.

As a fair warning, this book contains a harem element, but no explicit scenes.

im super disappointed to see the value in this book. most of its type are a typical over 10 hours for one credit. but this book. 7 books at 5 to 6 hours is kinda a joke. rather pathetic when it comes to value. needs more bundling.

it is great story so far. but

The start: the MC needs to delete a 20-year character, but somehow goes back in time to the launch of Eternal Dominion. The player is suddenly 18 again. That's the first few sentences of the whole thing ... Sure, it's an okay set-up.

So, the MC knows a lot about a brand new game. He's likeable and the game start is fun. Eternal Dominion is a fine game, but I suspect that there would be better options available in 2260. He's not a jerk and acts intelligently. Since he's acting differently, the past is changed enough that he needs to rely on game knowledge to stay ahead of the curve. It's at least 95% believable.

The narrators are great. Lots of different voices, easy to keep track of who is speaking, great production values. One item of note: Harem. The main character has two girlfriends. I wouldn't mention it except for the fact that other characters complain about it dozens of times, "but you're adults, so we'll have to accept it."

I had lots of fun with it. Highly recommended.

A great story, well acted

While I do recommend the series, I don't recommend the packaging. The series has a large cast of characters, and sadly a lot of them are not fleshed out in the main books. The author however offers for free on the SBT direct app several side stories per book for books 4-13 which flesh out a lot of the characters. The side stories for book 1, 2, and 3 were included at the end of the individual audiobooks, but not in this Omnibus. I can't find any place that offers them separately, you would need to buy the first 3 books individually to hear them. I think the side stories are pretty necessary to really enjoy the series so I can't recommend picking up the Omnibus.

I have heard two real complaints about this series, they don't bother me, but I can understand to a certain extent. The biggest being that this is very much a harem series and I can definitely see it feeling like a bait and switch to some. The first book is pretty much absent of any harem elements, but it starts in book two and the MC's relationships take up a large chunk of every book. He starts of with two girlfriends, and by book 12 he basically has 5 IRL girlfriends, 4 NPC wives and several more waiting in the wings, so if sizeable harems is a problem for you, I really doubt you can get around it.

The other has to do with one of the characters pursuing the MC. She is 17 at the start of the series, a year younger then the MC(if you don't factor in time travel and time dilation). Some view it as predatory, even though he rejects her, tries to get her help and keep her at a distance(she is his sister's friend, so he can't completely shut her out). I'm fairly sure the author added it to make the MC look more virtuous by getting her help and not taking advantage of her, but some people can't see past the fact that she isn't "legal".

Does not include the side stories/bonus content!

The combined use of the reall life plot with the in-game wrapped in a regression storyline really had my attention. Loved that creativity. Didn't love the often wooden dialogue and "villains". Really disliked the cringey harem plot line that feels like some sort of subversive incel fever dream. It pulled me out of the story every time because it didn't feel real, IMO. But again, it's a very intriguing story overall.

Creative use of the genre. A realistic fantasy so to speak.
