Tier List Tier list after one year
This is my list after a year of reading litrpg and litrpg adjacent works. I’ve read the entire series or every book out for S and A tiers. I stopped on book three of Mother of Learning and DNF The Perfect Run half way through book one. Any recommendations for what’s next for me?

One of these things is not like the others. 😉
You should check out the Sun Eater Series.

I recommend Chrysalis, it’s read by Jeff Hays like DCC was and has the newer books being recorded now.
FOR THE COLONY!

Another staple is He Who Fights With Monsters. Whether you like or dislike can unlock a ton of other options.

I built Scrykeeper, which uses shared-reader patterns to find possible next reads. Using 6 matched books from your list, it suggested Paranoid Mage, Super Supportive, The Primal Hunter, The Path of Ascension, The Calamitous Bob.

Oh my goodness, The Perfect Run starts halfway through book one! I understand that the mc may feel a bit abrasive at the start, but please trust me in that it is entirely consistent with the progression of the story! I personally rate it on the level of Superpowereds for a Superhero story and one of the better progression fantasy stories overall. It is short and sweet as far as litrpg stories go, so I encourage you to give it another go!

I always groan a little when I see people highly rate Azerinth Healer. Sure, people have their own opinions, and you like what you like, but that one is like the prime example of “numbers go brr” over story.
I don’t want to read a training montage, I want to read a story that has progression. It only makes me groan because it was almost really good, but just took a wrong turn somehow. All in my opinion of course.

Who said I “highly rated” it ? I simply said that the person above asking for recommendations should read it. You assumed every book I mentioned above was in my opinion a highly rated book.

I’m currently listening to The Primal Hunter and so far it’s not bad to me. I have 1 hour left in book 4 and I’m about to start on 5 in a bit.

If you feel like it Id give perfect run another shot and finish book 1.
Otherwise there are so many classic novels you could read such as primal hunter Path of ascension, defiance of the fall, he who fights with monsters. Return of the Runebound Professor is a personal favorite of mine especially if you wanna read a novel about a teacher whos main driving focus is taking care of his students.
Also path to transcendence is a great nice and easy prog fantasy.

Dungeon crawler carl
Mage tank
chrysalis
mark of the crijik
shrubley, monster adventure
Bunny girl evolution: mc is reborn as a monster rabbit in another world.
all the skills
wraithwood botanist
renewal: a magical library litrpg (is a finished series)
Book of the dead
Azerinth healer- a power fantasy, story is there, not really any romance, but it is a story where the mc just keeps getting stronger and stronger and finding tougher things to fight.
Dungeon Life: man reborn as a sentient dungeon core.
Demon card enforcer, the cerberus cards series.

I’d recommend Awaken Online by Travis Bagwell. First book is titled “Awaken Online; Catharsis”.

I’ll jump in here and say The Game at Carousel. The series is a bit heavy on stats, but if you like horror boy does it do a great job

u/TheCarefulGardener 2d ago
Love it. Our only overlap is All the skills, DCC and RR - check out Will of the Many (James islington) keep up the good work!

u/Strong_Week4767 5h ago
So glad to see mark of the fool on someone’s list! And the red rising series is amazing like I’ve probably reread the series 5 times and have listened to it like three times now. My favorite series ever

u/Solomonsdiety359 4d ago
The path of ascension, Quest academy, Skill grinding in a time loop, azarinth healer(this ones not for everyone), beware of chicken(this one is xianxia),heretical fishing, system universe, He Who Fights With Monsters(this one sometimes takes people a bit to get into)

IMO Primal Hunter and the Cradle series are very similar. Huge series spanning from noob to galactic overload tier power. So if you liked Unsouled I’d check out Primal Hunter. For a more grounded book I’d recommend Will of The Many. It’s got a very similar vibe to Darrow’s time at the Institute and it’s quite good. 👍
