With the LitRPG genre, authors combine the deep storytelling of novels with the game elements of MMOs and RPGs, creating a more interactive experience. Humble’s LitRPG Audiobook Bundle offers as many as 15 of those books, making this a pretty great deal for fans who are looking to fill out their libraries.
The bundle includes 15 different audiobooks that blend RPG mechanics and genre fiction. You’ll even get a few full series. They include the Chronicles of Sir Crabby books, about a sentient crab fighting through an RPG-esque ocean, written by the author of the Noobtown series; the first two entries into the Qi=MC2 series, about a character trapped in a strange world and forced to take on challenges to increase his strength; and the first two Speedrunning the Multiverse books, about a godlike character battling through the multiverse to alleviate his boredom.
The amount you spend determines the number of books you get, and even at lower costs, the deal remains quite advantageous. A payment of $1 entitles you to Speedrunning the Multiverse: Book 1 by Adastra339. Raise the bid to $10 and you add Speedrunning the Multiverse: Book 2, as well as Runeseeker and Runeseeker 2, by C.J. Thompson and J.M. Clarke to your collection. For a minimum of $18, all 17 LitRPGs become yours. Look at the comprehensive listing below.
Qi=MC2 Book Two: The Second Law of Cultivation
Many of these LitRPG books, including the Qi=MC2 and Sir Crabby series, are part of a Kindle Unlimited subscription, providing the option to read instead of listen. Kindle Unlimited offers even more books in the Speedrunning the Universe, Qi=MC2, 12 Miles Below, Runeseeker, and Divine Progression series. You could purchase them individually on Kindle via Amazon without a Kindle Unlimited subscription, but you would end up paying more than you would in the Humble bundle.
