Why read it?
1 author picked Temple of Sorrow as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Devon Walker is a rare breed of main character in LitRPG. A well-written female! And while there’s a lot of focus on her classic fantasy character build, there’s as much story time spent on town building and community management. Devon forms strong bonds and friendships with the NPCs of this fantasy RPG world and she does her best to improve their ‘lives’. Stonehaven League is as much about building character as it is about character build.
From Edwin's list on The best LitRPG books with characters who empower others as they level up.
