The Exlian Syndrome Box Set (Books 1-3) by Seth Ring, bestselling author of Titan and Battle Mage Farmer

Level up. Lock and load. Survive the invasion or become the next monster.

When the alien Exlian invade, humanity’s only hope lies with the empowered, those rare few granted supernatural abilities. Mark Fields isn’t one of them. He’s a dishwasher with broken dreams, no powers, and even less luck.

Until a dying stranger changes everything.

Suddenly, Mark has what he’s always wanted: the power to fight back. To prove himself. To rise. But as he joins the Defense Force and begins to level up, he quickly learns that the System hides secrets of its own—and that monsters aren’t always alien. Some wear human faces.

From the brutal training camps of Advent to the wilderness battles of Dark Dawn, and the deadly depths of Apex, Mark’s journey is one of constant evolution. Every kill brings experience. Every upgrade unlocks new abilities. But with greater power comes darker choices, and the line between man and monster grows razor thin.

As the Exlian threat spreads and corruption festers within humanity’s last defenses, Mark must decide what kind of hero he’s willing to become and how much of himself he’s willing to sacrifice.

Packed with explosive progression, intricate skill systems, and high-octane alien warfare, The Exlian Syndrome Box Set, which includes Advent, Dark Dawn, and Apex, delivers three full-length novels of relentless action and power-driven adventure from one of the masters of modern LitRPG.

the books starts out well, however around book 2-3 it starts to feel as if the author changed his mind.
The plot gets forced in a strange way like a single player campaign game.

Stuff sort of just happens and the main character goes along with whatever aney one tells him to do.

He goes from smart and independent to a pice on someone elses board, and when he does make a decision it is somehow always the worst one.

i like some of the other stuff the author has written but this one feels lazy.
