Publisher's summary

Rys awakes to the smell of blood and nearly two thousand years of dust.

Maybe he overslept a little too long. Once, he was a great champion and general in the demonic empire that ruled the world. Now, he’s been erased from history.

He’ll need to remind the world of the price of forgetfulness.

Now is the time to build his own empire, as the ancient powers of his time are long gone. Rys has an archipelago to conquer, women interested in extending their bloodline with him, and a mysterious labyrinth that holds the secret to why he was sealed away to begin with.

But a contract with Hell is eternal. His old employers want to turn him into their pawn, and Rys must become powerful enough to remain free.

That’s not a short to-do list. But half the fun of taking over the world is the challenge.

Not bad, just not for me

I'll start off with the fact that I'm a little biased. I've been listening to every LITRPG that seemed even a little interesting to me. I finally finished all the books in all the series that I've started and just took a shot in the dark with this one cause it was first int he recommended for some reason. I skimmed the description and knew nothing about the author. It was definitely a good book, just not sure its for me. The harem stuff was a little much for me.

Like fluffy tails? Slowburn? Big chests?

The reason to read this book is Phara the kitsune, and her relationship with the MC. Let me sum her up with this brief exchange.

Phara is leaving. Girl she has protected since birth says, "Aw, I don't get a hug? What kind of godmother are you?"

Phara says, "The tough love kind," and smacks the girl with a tail.

She's incredibly tsundere, of the rolled eyes or slap-upside-the-head variety, always with a dubious comment. But in between a lot of that is some very delicate or bashful flirting with the MC, and slow acceptance of romance. This is so slowburn that the MC and her don't even seal the deal in this book. Oh, and just about every paragraph about Phara has her doing something with her tails. Plus several scenes involving touching and teasing those tails. I'm a tail-freak and even I thought it was a little much.

The actual adult content comes from very short scenes involving another woman with massive chest. Like, her two defining characteristics are her chest and how much she is into the MC absolutely conquering her and rubbing her nose in it. The scenes themselves are very brief mind you, blink and you miss it, and it's a bit jarring compared to how blushing and coy the rest of the book is. Almost like it was tossed in to hold the reader over for the next book.

All of this is buried in the minutia of empire building. The author loves his super detailed politics, and nerding about magical theory. The action, like the sex, happens very quick and is rather perfunctory. Most if it honestly didn't grab me at all and was a bit boring at times.

One final point. A thing I like about K D Robertson's books is that there actually are male minor characters. In other authors works the MC is the only guy on the planet that's not an asshole or villain.

I'll read the next book but I'm not in a hurry to. The relationship with Phara, and other scenes of witty banter or other cute touches with other characters is nice, but the overall book left me a bit cool. Still you might like wading through it.

3.5

So glad they re-recorded this!

okay so I've pretty much listened to everything K.D. Robertson has produced, so when I got a hold of demon's throne one under the old narrators I was excited. only to find an audiobook where they made Grigor sound like a goddamn muppet... and every female character spoke with this halting Stilton voice and my disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined...

flash forward to finding out that Mr. Robertson was getting it. re-recorded under the talented ministrations of Stephanie Savannah... You had my curiosity, but now you have my attention!

this is a marvelously done audiobook, Stephanie Savannah is just so goddamn talented. I wish so many more authors used her to narrate their audiobooks, especially the smutty ones. as for the equality of the book itself, the story is great, you definitely get strong anti-hero vibes from Reese. each of the female characters are well fleshed out and not just a Finley veiled trope for the main character to stick his penis in... there's dare I say romance and a budding relationship forming between Reese, his fox, his merchant, and his mayor... and a certain spellblade as well.

seriously though, if you're still reading this by the book you'll thank me.

great series, if you're on the fence give it a try

the story is great, it's just not erotica there is actually a plot and 3 dimensional chars in the book!

the narrator does an amazing job with brining all the different chars to life.
Stephanie is the most attractive woman I've never seen.

Fun stuff

Really liked it. The good narration adds so much to a title and it was well done hear. Can't wait for the next book and hope we see a book 4 soon.

Quality Writing

I love Robertson. I feel all his books should be given a fair shake. His characters have a lot of life and reasonably deal with time in ways that others pack into to short a time span for things to reasonably occur. Demon's Throne is excellent for those very reasons.

Good depth and nice plot

95% of other titles are just raunchy romping hack. It's refreshing to listen to one that actually has good depth and original. The narrator is good too.

Awesome Book!

I said this before, I’m not big into Harem books, but this was so much easy to stomache. It was sex, sex, and more sex all over the place. It had a story line, characters you get to know and live. I love the General Prince and the Imps. There were plenty actions and adventure, and the MC Rys, I too would give him the business. I can’t wait for the second book. Great writing and the story is developing into an interesting story.

I read this after Neural Wraith and Mob Sorcery

I'm in love with the authors book and this one is a base builder. It doesn't drag out the base building and has a good story It builds off from. I will say my only negative is amnesia for Mc. It's a stupid way of keeping secrets and nurfing characters.
