The Primal Hunter
2022 · Zogarth · 712 pages · LitRPG
The Primal Hunter delivers exactly what its genre promises: a system apocalypse with fast progression, satisfying combat, and a protagonist who adapts faster than everyone around him. The action writing is strong, the alchemy crafting system adds welcome variety, and the reading experience moves quickly enough to justify the page count. Thin secondary characters and an overpowered protagonist limit the tension, and the book ends mid-arc rather than at a natural stopping point. But for readers who know what they want from LitRPG and want it delivered efficiently, this hits the mark.
