Koji Athame left his house for the first time in five years today. When what was supposed to be a quick trip to visit his parents, turns into a deadly crash. Koji finds himself waking up in a realm of danger and wonder beyond his wildest imagination. It doesn’t take long to figure out he’s not in Kansas anymore, after escaping a monster attack and unlocking his new Traveller system, Koji learns that the Trial he and the other survivors are in will only exist for 4 more days, and only the strongest can escape.

With time ticking against him and the fate of his newfound companions hanging in the balance, Koji must navigate treacherous landscapes, battle relentless monsters, and confront his own inner demons. As tensions rise and the world crumbles around them, Koji's party must unravel the secrets hidden within the perilous trials they face.
With each victory, Koji grows in power, learning how best to allocate his attributes and how to efficiently use his growing magical repertoire. And amidst the chaos, he has to grow and fund his personal pocket dimension, his own Home, in this unforgiving realm.

Yet, not everything is as it seems. As Koji grapples with his unexpected abilities, the side effects of selecting all random for his starting gear, and a skipped tutorial that have held vital knowledge, he must confront a snarky, voyeuristic deity and escape the web of schemes his fellow humans have laid.

Immerse yourself in the heart-pounding journey of Koji Athame as he battles monsters, treads the fragile line between life and death, and unravels the truth behind why he was brought here.

What would you do if you lived in a video game? Here is Koji Athame, a non-gamer tossed into an alternative world that makes him learn to fight with magic. Enjoyable read.

Great start to a new LitRPG series! Waiting for the next one!

Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2023

Disclaimer: I had the opportunity to read Traveller's Trial as an advanced reader copy. Spoilers abound.

I've not had a ton of experience with the LitRPG genre, but PF tends to lend itself to the format, so I was looking forward to it. As a primarily fantasy and PF reader, I would say that this was the biggest factor in my overall impression and enjoyment of the book and has me wondering about the "next steps."

The entirety of Traveller's Trial is spent in a psuedo-video game scenario. Characters have something roughly equivalent to a unique "class," but it doesn't dictate their available choices for skills, spells, etc. It only defines synergies between them. Much of the development seems to either be random chance or possibly some kind of outside interference. Most often, Koji seems to "fail upwards" with his selections and loot. So, as a reader, it can be hard to anticipate how characters' builds will develop and try to "play along" with them. If you're the type that wants to self-insert as a min-maxing power-gamer to try to plan out what your choices would be in their place, this might not be the story for you as both the system and the main character, Koji, will definitely deny you that opportunity. However, if you enjoy the unexpected and a more laid-back approach to observing skill growth and combinations, Traveller's Trial will be a great match for you.

As I said, I'm usually a fantasy and PF reader, so throughout my reading, I was waiting for the "big picture plot" to arrive. Ultimately, I came to the conclusion that this book is really a prelude to the larger world and story. It serves as a foundation for the system, the characters, and their starting points. It sets up for the next in the series to expand while keeping its own scope well-defined so that there's a clear ending to this arc.

Nevertheless, I found the system itself intriguing, with many possibilities for future shenanigans if Koji can ever get his act together, take his new life and the mechanics seriously, and take a more active role in his own skill development. In some ways, it reminded me of Dungeon Crawler Carl in that the spells and skills are narrative, unique, and defined by a "system entity" rather than a "class path." I'm also excited to see the characters other than Koji get more development and screen-time that isn't under duress. Koji definitely has a lot of social and emotional growth to do, and I'd be happy to see him grow closer with his companions, and in the process, get to know them better. I get the impression there's more to them than meets the eye in this installment.

Overall, I give it a 4/5 stars. If the sequel entries in the series are well executed and build on the foundation Traveller's Trial set, it will easily bump up to a 4.5/5.

Unpleasant MC

I only got about 1/3 through the book, the MC is unlikeable, and I don't want to read about him. He is despondent, incompetent, lazy, and a bit of a jerk to everyone around him.

Certainly worth the read!

Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2024

This isn’t my usual genre to read, but I find myself going back to read over the MC’s thought processes and takes on things. It’s interesting to see how Koji’s mind works and how the character progresses, kept me hooked.
