About this listen

Whatever kills Shiv only makes him stronger.

An outcast without a Path, Shiv was never supposed to amount to anything. The System ignored him, and his town despised him. But when he is murdered defending his home, the universe makes a mistake:

It gives him a second chance.

Awakening with the Path of the Deathless, Shiv is thrown into the Abyss. Here, amidst wonders and nightmares, he discovers a terrifying truth: Every time he dies, he comes back stronger.

Now, the Abyss isn't a prison—it's an all-you-can-eat buffet of XP.

And Shiv is starving.

From its engaging plot, to a well thought out MC, this book is a delightful read. Humorous though-out and a smart twist on your normal protagonists levelling system combined with a growing love/hate relationship really makes this book shine. Recommend.

An interesting twist on the genre
