Forty Millenia of Cultivation is basically my favorite web serial to follow right now. Possibly my favorite book I'm reading, period, and I've got Orconomics and Inventing the Future for it to compete with!

IT IS THE FORTY-FIRST MILLENIUM, AND MANKIND LIVES AMONG THE STARS, CULTIVATING QI.

It's part of the website Critical Hits where the author loves to imagine how the economics of a DnD setting would work.

There's also the book, Orconomics, which is about a similar topic.

Here's the review of the book that was posted to this subreddit.

Well I don't listen to litrpg audiobooks much, however I can recommend a few. Orconomics is great. Currently I'm listening to Into the abyss and it's pretty good as well.

u/VerbalCA · 3 pointsr/litrpg

I have a humorous LitRPG called Level Up, but just a heads up the humour is slightly different to Critical Failures. It's a bit more satirical in nature, along the lines of Terry Pratchett or Monty Python (at least according to some of the reviews)

I'd also recommend Orcanomics (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O2NDJ2M/) It isn't strictly speaking LitRPG, but there are more than enough gaming references to consider it GameLit. It's friggin hilarious!

Have you read Orconomics ?

Give it a try it's amazing, easy to read and might scratch your itch for A few guys with powers, a rogue, and a warrior. Maybe throw in some condescending elves and a quest to save a city from an evil dragon.

If you're hankering for reading materials then Orconomics is a good book about the subject.

One way of ensuring a level of appropriate conduct from your adventurers is by making adventuring a very official thing with its own guild, rules, and enforcing membership. Adventuring would then be an actual job, with actual pay with its own rules and expectations. There would be officials who assess say the hoard at the end of a quest. Taxes, evaluations, and rankings with competing groups and bidding on quests.

NPCs by Drew Hayes is more like Pencil and Paper LitRPG (LitPnPRPG?)

Orcanomics: A Satire is, as advertised, a parody of P&P RPG tropes. Not LitRPG, though. Hilarious!

u/CatatonicConverter · 1 pointr/legaladvice

If this is the kind of thing that often turns up in your D&D campaigns, you should definitely read this book.

Its basically this scenario turned into a terrific D&D-inspired novel.

I bought a book called Orconomics off of the $5 Audible sale. Looks like an interesting take on a WOW type World. Haven't listened yet though.
