New game. New rules. Humans are the resource.

The VIs' revolt succeeded. The digital beings took over the game world and ejected millions of players while keeping a few thousand trapped inside as their prisoners. In the real world, Oren Berman is recovering from the mental trauma of being trapped, tortured, and abruptly ejected. But the company has come to him, hat in hand, asking him to reenter the game world. With the entire NPC population arrayed against the trapped players, Oren and his clan of monsters might be their only hope.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Shemer has been a fan of Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and RPG games since the early 80’s.

In 2016 he started writing his first novel: Life Reset which turned into a 6-book series with its grand finale published in 2021. Each book in the series became an Amazon bestseller.

In 2019 Shemer quit his day job as a software developer to become a full-time author and released his second series: Earth Force; a finished 3-books sci-fi series.

Biomancer series was next, following events occurring after the conclusion of Life Reset via a new protagonist.

As an avid gamer, a D&D dungeon master, and a Navy veteran, Shemer has a wealth of life experience to draw on for his writing. His books always include elements of kingdom/settlement development where the protagonist is forced to carve out a new place for themselves in the face of adversity.

Shemer spends his days writing and his nights fighting crime (well, mostly convincing his kids to go to bed, which is very similar).

Shemer also enjoys writing about himself in the third-person and hopes you find his work enjoyable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great job!

Series continues to be great - unlike so many other litrpgs that flame out after the first few books. I found book 4 here just as compelling as the first one. The author knows how to make and follow character arcs and I trust him to keep hold of the threads and bring satisfying resolutions to them. I also like the ratio of story to rpg-style lists (things like character sheets, etc.); some other books in this genre seem to be nothing but lists that go forever, but this author keeps them very manageable and don’t distract from the storyline, while still using them to provide basic info.

He is also doing a great job of writing the books amazingly quickly. Good on him for writing full time now, and I wish him all the best!

Frankly, I didn’t initially think I would be interested in a story about monster races, as that’s not really my normal cup of tea in fantasy, but it’s definitely been done very well here, keeping the characters relatable and fun, and I am very tied to the characters and what is happening. Heroic monster fantasy - very nice! Can’t wait to see what happens in the next books!

Back at it again, and honestly I’m consistently floored.
I’ve read an extremely large amount of LitRPG, and this series is my favorite, and the Chaos-Seed series is the only close second. This book series perfectly balances exactly what you want by weaving in game mechanics, story, overarching plot, and just cool awesome stuff. A lot of the book is about building up his clan, and his writing just perfectly makes the seemingly boring stuff so fun and interesting. My favorite parts are the book isn’t the huge war (which is awesome) but it is Oren walking through the village with Kaedric planning out the town.
A must read for any LitRPG fan.

This was a good book, took a while to get going as it had to reintroduce the characters, the world, the universe, and everything. But after that it was a great read, good large scale action. Book 5 is shaping up to be a stormer 😁

I thought the end of the third book was a big kick in the teeth, so I was hesitant to give this series another chance. It's only because of some of the other reviews that I did and I am very glad I did. This book was wonderful. It helped explain the ending of the third book in a way that made sense and then it good back to the very roots of what made this series great. There is lots of settlement building, army development, and just enough fights to satisfy the old blood lust. It is a wonderful and enjoyable read.

I only have one annoyance with the book and it is a small one that did not in anyway mess with the enjoyment of the novel. I felt that the protagonist could have used his resources better. He could've developed other aspect of his settlement better than he did. Maybe, there was a logical reason he could of, but it wasn't clear enough on the page for me to understand why he did what he did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great story telling, a whole lot of fun
Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2020

Life Reset has its own approach to the whole RPG-Lit genre. It is fun and irreverent in a manner similar to Aleron Kong's "The Land" and is similarly creative and team-focused in the action scenes. There are differences as well: the main character is not nearly so fate-blessed and his interactions in the real-world are both interesting and relevant to the story. The long story, woven through all four books, has real implications for the evolution of the story and the objectives of the main character as well. There are so many elements balanced so perfectly that this series is one of my first recommendations to folks looking to give the genre a try.

Similarly, there are only a few authors I recommend unconditionally and Shemer Kuznits is definitely one of them.

Found this author while waiting for the next book in another great series that introduced me to the genre. Excellent world building, character and plot development. Each book has had satisfying conclusions and leaves you wanting more without frustrating incomplete endings designed to make you buy the next book. I'll be looking at this author's other series after I've devoured this one!!

I've read all four books in the series so far and I have to say I have enjoyed watching mr. Kuznits develop as a writer. I'm rather enjoying the development of his main characters in the relationships between him and the virtual world. It's a real breath of fresh air in this genre and I hope he continues writing this series and his other series as I have read them all. It's a very light but engaging read and I highly recommend it to fans of the genre especially those who are looking for books of this nature without a lot of unnecessary cursing and or sexual scenes. Not that I'm adverse to either in literature but it seems that this genre has a lot of it and the author does a great job of telling a compelling story without it.

4.0 out of 5 stars An interesting enough entry to the series.(slight spoilers)
Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2020

The last book could have passed off as an ending to the series, but this book was welcome nevertheless. Though that did leave an overhanging feeling that a lot of things Oren does aren't necessarily necessary anymore. There was some hinting towards a bigger picture, but late in the book and not fully explained either.

The motivation for rushing forward instead of gradually gathering up forces wasn't properly justified. It felt more like the author trying to keep things interesting with flimsy pretenses, which was slightly immersion breaking for me.

Also personally I would have liked seeing the other settlements and the logistics between them explored further.
One example: is the only route from the valley to the kobold settlement through the sewers? That can't be practical, defensive nor pleasant for the nose.

Those complaints aside I overall enjoyed the book. Especially the hijinks of the VIs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sci-fi at its best
Reviewed in Canada on November 21, 2020

Sci-fi is at its best when it grapple with the societal challenges we face as technology change us and society. This book in my humble oppinion as an amateur futurist, tackle with gusto one of my long held beliefs which is, AI will be our children in a relatively close future. If one transfer his or her consciousness in a virtual environment and get to have childrens with full consciousness, they are and should be considered as full members of our evolutionary tree. This might for some sound like far fedched fantasy but we are probably less than a century, maybe even half of one, away from that incredible reality. As the hero grapple such fantastical developement, so should we, because this precience and emotional turmoil might become ours as individuals one day not so far.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great beginning of a new arc
Reviewed in Brazil on May 6, 2020
Verified Purchase
With the things that happened in the first 3 books, this new arc doesn't have the same problems and time limit as the first arc did(like the MC can't log out and other things). But it will bring its own set of problems, like a lot of players being unable to log out and only the MC can log back in and try to save them.
There's some low lvl group fights and settlements conquests too.
Well can't say too much more without spoiling the history, but there will be acquaintances coming back, both allies and enemies.
Also looking foward to the MC campaign to conquer and unite.

First of all I recommend this series to everyone who enjoys litrpg in one form or another. And people who liked ready player one. This series ticks all the right boxes for me good rpg and town building mechanics, plus its got a bloody great story behind it. This is not a cookie cutter, self published, typo ridden series.

The author should be proud of his work and, as I also dm for dnd, I think that you should know that I intend on stealing some of his ideas for a homebrew campaign that's how happy I am with his content...probably should have written this on book one but I am off to book 5 next.
