About this listen

A heroic trio must continue to scale a soaring tower—and contend with its untrustworthy gods—in the second book of this witty portal fantasy.

Along with her self-assured dragon-cat Arkaziel and the ghostly elf Werylin, aqua-haired Aetheria has reached the fiftieth floor of the Tower of Aetherius. But she's a little different than when she set out. For one thing, she's a third-tier magic user. For another, her soul has been connected to the Origin, the source of Ethereal power, which is bombarding her with all kinds of emotions. Not to mention she's having a little trouble desiring anyone but her soul-witch lover, Aoibhe. (Oops!)

Now, as the unlikely trio climbs the second half of the tower, they'll fight flying puffer fish and packs of sharks, guard against kobolds and T-Rex team-ups, and negotiate with the hydra-like daughter of Tiamat. They'll venture through halls of mirrors and catacombs of crystal. But hey, at least there are rewards. (An Idiot's Guide to Core Creation, anyone? No? How about a mango?)

Along the way, Aetheria will be further changed— in ways she can't even fathom—by the magic that flows through her body. And she'll learn that, sometimes, the gods have plans they don't tell you . . .

The second volume of the hit progression-fantasy series—with more than 750,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

I liked the first book so of course I had to check out the second one. The narrator was great last time until I had to listen to her say nidhogg like a hundred times. Book one started with a normal accent then book two for some reason it bounced from a midwestern barely recognizable accent to a joke of a voice of a bad Canadian housewife impression and throughout the book bounced between those two. The later floors once we got to the outer gods portion turned into joke floors mostly with barely any reason of them being on there. Overall the book is good liked the cultivation aspect and the void vs life crisis but it started strong and then kinda fell flat the last couple chapters.

Solid start with a somewhat okay ending

in chapter 53 a little after the 8 min 20 sec point will be a loud droning tone.

Enjoyed the references to the 80s, 90s, and other series. 🙂 At times, I felt like the progress through the floors was too fast, but realized that was just what I am used to through other series and it was a nice alternative. 100 floors could be 4 books by itself.
