Publisher's summary

Learning to fight comes to Kyle like he is remembering something he had forgotten. Perhaps that makes sense as the reincarnated War God.

But weapons skills are not enough; Kyle has to learn to work with a team. More than that, he doesn't even know who the real enemies are yet. All that is going to change though, and the heavens will shake as the War God makes his presence felt once again.

One tiny problem...

I do love this story, it's characters, and especially the wonderful narrators voicing them.

My only real hang-up is the constant references to professional baseball before he makes some "big" decision. I was cool with it in the first book, given that it was an origin, as are most first books in a series. Now though, it's starting to wear on me. It seems to me that a lot of the call backs to his former life that carry some semblance of wisdom in regards to what his life now involves are all the same, the author just changes a few of the words up here and there to fit into the narrative of whatever circumstance the MC is put in. When this doesn't feel heavy-handed, it feels entirely needless - like the author just left the fluff in.

Maybe I'm being picky, but we've already well and truly established both his background and his aspirations, trying to tie all that back into his time as a pro baseball player just seems kinda pointless - just keep the fantasy story moving.

I'll still be getting the next book, but I hope the author lays off the baseball stuff a bit.

War God for Hire #2: Adventurer

Introduction:
Greetings, fellow inhabitants of HowlStrom. I am Kiba Snowpaw, the Alpha Ice Wolf, and I bring forth a review from the icy realms of our world. As the winter season grips our land, I find solace in the tales of other realms, and today, I share my thoughts on "War God for Hire #2: Adventurer" by David Burke.

Basic Plot Summary:
Kyle, our protagonist, is not just any mortal. He is the reincarnated War God. As he grapples with his newfound identity and powers, he realizes that mere weapon skills won't suffice. He must learn to work with a team and identify his true adversaries. The heavens tremble as the War God's presence is felt once again.

Analysis/Evaluation:
The tale is a blend of fantasy and harem genres, spanning 378 pages. Published on May 31, 2021, it has garnered attention and praise from many. The story's progression is evident, and the challenges Kyle faces are both internal and external.

Characters:
Kyle's character is intriguing. His journey from a baseball player to the reincarnated War God is filled with trials and tribulations. His growth is not just in terms of power but also in understanding and accepting his new identity. The supporting characters add depth to the story, each playing a pivotal role in Kyle's journey.

Structure:
The narrative structure is well-paced, with a balance of action, introspection, and character development. The plot twists keep the readers engaged, and the world-building is immersive.

Impact:
The story resonates with themes of identity, power, and the constant battle between good and evil. It serves as a reminder that strength is not just physical but also mental and emotional.

Hook and Thesis:
The reincarnation of a War God in a world where he must rediscover himself is a captivating premise. The story promises adventure, intrigue, and a deep dive into the psyche of a god in a mortal's body.

Praise and Critique:
The character development, especially Kyle's, is commendable. The way he grapples with his past and present is portrayed realistically. However, some readers have pointed out minor grammatical errors and inconsistencies in the narrative. While these do not majorly detract from the overall experience, they are noticeable.

Evaluation:
David Burke's writing style is engaging, and his portrayal of the antagonist's looming threat adds depth to the story. The balance between the current challenges and the impending danger keeps the readers on their toes.

Comparison:
While the story has its unique elements, some readers have drawn parallels with other fantasy tales. However, the reincarnation aspect and the protagonist's journey set it apart.

Conclusion:
"War God for Hire #2: Adventurer" is a tale of power, identity, and the eternal battle between good and evil. It is a must-read for those who seek adventure and introspection. As the Alpha Ice Wolf of HowlStrom, I recommend this tale to all who wish to embark on an epic journey. May the icy winds of HowlStrom guide you.

Stay frosty, fellow wolves

Exceeds the first and that’s not easy.

I can’t write a review to simply why I think so. I’ll save you some time and just tell you. Stop… reading this… take your credit and hit purchase. You won’t regret it you’ll just be anticipating the next book in the end. Kyle’s rise to God hood is a gem of a story.
