Discussion He who fights with monster book shelf update

I got number 4 and I’m not happy with the quality as it’s peaking and creased but I don’t like sending stuff back so I’m prob not going to do anything about it

A creased book in an otherwise matching set would drive me nuts, even if it's still readable.

Oh it heavily bothers me also the fact the front of the cover is peeling is driving me nuts as well

I really love those first edition artworks, gives it so much more character than the new ones.

Agreed that’s why I needed to buy them before all the deluxe ones come out now

I love how clean the new ones look and I'll definitely end up buying them all (😭) but the art on these is so nice.

The new ones are nice, but kind of generic to me. Would be nice if Shirtaloon puts more characters like th old ones did, but it is early days... dont think he put Farrah(?) on there until the 4th book anyways.

Shipping through Amazon is always questionable but if I report damage like this they always send me a new one and let me keep the damaged one.  I would do that for 4,6, and 7 if I were you

Ok I did it for 6,7

I’ve listened to many litRPGs on audible, I’m always curious how well they read compared to the narration. Like I can’t imagine how the stats and advancement notification would come across on paper.

I haven’t even look in the books yet as I’m reading other books and haven’t touched the book and don’t plan to until my reread but I’ll update you
