About this listen
Palmyre. A city of questions and a family short on answers. And foremost on everyone’s mind is the question that matters most: Where is Grandpa Jack?
After a long and arduous journey, the Sullivan family has made it to Palmyre. The initial joy over their reunion soon fades, however, when Grandpa Jack fails to arrive. With no way of seeking him out, they turn their attention to surviving in a town far different from anything they have experienced before. For some, it is a matter of learning who they are. For others, it is about learning what they are becoming. And for Grandpa Jack, well, he would have gotten to that damn town ages ago if there weren’t so many damn creatures, monsters, and gods in the way.
As for Turkaletta…does anyone think of the turkey? Nooo. It’s all, “Where’s Grandpa Jack?” Couldn’t just one person say, “What about our turkey?”
Sigh. Looks like she’ll have to do it her way.

It’s just another Thanksgiving for the Sullivans - until the walls disappear and they discover they are being transported to Arenia, a place where game rules are real and their Earthen ability to reincarnate grants them unlimited potential. Or it would, if the celestial administrator in charge of their case hadn’t mixed up longitude and latitude and sent the wrong family. Now scattered throughout the Arenian wilderness and armed only with their Tomes, the family members must discover a strength they didn’t know they had if they are going to survive.

Ah, Nyil, with its magic, its monsters, and its petty gods. A divine spat leaves French medic Viv stranded in the middle of an arcane disaster zone crawling with undead horrors. Thankfully, there are strange allies to be found, not least the mysterious interface that helps humans survive in this merciless world. Viv will have to progress fast to survive this calamity and find civilisation. She will also need a bit of luck. Unless, of course, she becomes the calamity herself.

Story
Bernt might have graduated from the Mage Academy, but not everyone has the money or connections to launch a prestigious career as a mage. Bernt finds himself working in the city sewers as an Underkeeper among the other rejects of Halfbridge's magery. He may spend more time unclogging pipes than fighting monsters, but hey, it's a stable job, and that's what counts. With the help of his unregistered soul-devouring demonic familiar, he'll save enough to launch his career as an adventurer—just as soon as he can afford some proper gear.

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

Story
It’s just another Thanksgiving for the Sullivans - until the walls disappear and they discover they are being transported to Arenia, a place where game rules are real and their Earthen ability to reincarnate grants them unlimited potential. Or it would, if the celestial administrator in charge of their case hadn’t mixed up longitude and latitude and sent the wrong family. Now scattered throughout the Arenian wilderness and armed only with their Tomes, the family members must discover a strength they didn’t know they had if they are going to survive.

Story
Brian Fieldings just buried his dad and lost the only job he's ever had. Waking up in an unfamiliar, pitch-black room the next morning feels a lot like the rotten cherry on a particularly awful sundae. Especially given the inhuman howling coming from the other side of the door. He's only been conscious for a minute or so, but Brian already has questions. Where is he and how did he get here? What is making those terrible noises? And why does the room he's in have an altar?

His indulgences have produced a pile of paintings and a string of failed charities.

It’s Drop Night, the one night every decade when the gods hand out cards to a lucky few. If you get a deck, you’re a deckbearer capable of wondrous feats within the Great Game system. You can control powerful monsters and summon mantles that let you fight alongside your beasts. Ethan Wolfe, top enforcer for the Grimm family mob, has already been overlooked on two previous Drop Nights. People of his ilk seldom receive cards, as the gods tend to favor people who follow their divine mandates, but that doesn’t mean Wolfe can’t hope.

Sorry... Really? Thrust? Anyway, Danny Kendrick was a down-on-his luck performer who always struggled to find his place. He certainly never wanted to be a hero. He just hoped to earn a living doing what he loved. That all changes when he pisses off the wrong guy and gets sucked into a fantasy realm straight out of a Renaissance Fair. Getting used to a new world is tough. It's even tougher when you're surrounded by axe-wielding barbarians, super hot elf assassins, strange magic, and a jaded System that doesn't appear interested in being charged with yet another companion.

Great book 2 in the series. Just please, please, please don’t make us wait near as long for book 3 in the series. I waited so long for book 2 in this series, I almost dropped a star for all three rating classes out of spite.

Jeff Hays always shows up
The series so far has been captivating. I am not sure i am going to continue after this book. The Father Son relationship is grating on me. We have two super aware people about everything, and it just seems like an unnecessary friction that makes me disconnect. It's really out of character. There are also some other out of character items that break the story for me but the grandpa, turkey, and sister keep it fresh enough to keep me on the fence.

Extra star given for not having harems nor inexplicably stupid characters.
If you liked the first book then you will like this one too. Honestly, for me this is a four star book which means it’s really good, but not perfect. If the slow pace of the overall plot from the first book didn’t bother you then you’ll be fine with the second one. That said, while I was engaged and entertained all the way through this book, I was a little disappointed that the plot did very little advancing by the end.
It’s tough when you have 6 main characters to follow. Balancing their individual perspectives with more overarching developments is really not easy. The author does a great job switching between MC’s without making the book feel choppy and keeping the story cohesive. But in doing so well at that we end up with a bit more of a slice-of-life experience than a faster paced storyline.
Again, the audiobook was great, I just feel like my 5-star rating is a bit disingenuous. However when a really good audiobook only has three ratings I feel compelled to give it an extra star just to keep it from falling into the doldrums of the sub-4.6 star purgatory that many good books struggle to ever make it out of.
This is why 5 point rating systems for nuanced things are idiotic. And why any of the tens of thousands of audible books with 4.3 star ratings could be the best audiobook you’ve ever heard, or so mind-numbingly terrible that it damages your psyche permanently.
…And there’s no way to know which is which beforehand! It’s frustrating.
Sorry, just couldn’t help myself from going on a little rant. I blame coffee.

Yeah I don’t know what happened
The first book was amazing but my god these characters are infuriating. Mom/Dad refuses to adapt to their new world. Everyone is keeping secrets from each other for no logical reason. Mark, my god, Mark. How do you make the character possessed by eldritch magic the least compelling, least likable character? I like the Druid daughter but she’s just there.
I would love a book that mostly follows Grandpa Jack and the Turkey. Yes the turkey is the 2nd best character in this book.
Couple hours left, let’s hope it gets better
