Pax is a student mage, not a hero.

But the empire is full of corrupt rulers and a city-breaking monster on the horizon. It’s time to join the fight.

An audacious street rat, Pax scrambles to develop powerful and forbidden magic before his enemies can capture and ruin him. A monstrous beast, capable of shattering the city's defenses, is coming. Panic ensues, and the capital mobilizes for war, pushing Pax's strategic abilities to their limits.

With time running out, the corrupt ruling families of the Astan Empire will stop at nothing to track down and extinguish any hint of rebellion. Pax races to strengthen his crew and navigate new alliances as the stakes skyrocket.

With the fate of the city and his friends hanging in the balance, can Pax unlock the secrets of light magic and gather enough people to his cause? Or will the empire's relentless grip, always brutal toward resistance, crush him?

Pick up this spellbinding tale of adventure, danger, and magic as Pax's epic journey continues. The fate of his city and everyone he cares about hang in the balance.

First off, I love LITRPG. 2nd I love fantasy series. I am also a fan of academy series. I love seeing a group of characters develop friendship, bonds, enemies and alliances and to watch them grow in knowledge and strength. The intrigue and guile is handled very well. The powers and their progression are great. Especially the addition of pet companions. Really a great book and a great series. Well written and well narrated.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

This second entry is still very strong with the world building and skills. I truly enjoyed the beast pet development as well. This Academy type story is well worth checking out.

Great story progression!

I want the rest of the story! I love how this book starts off with a recap and then continues to deliver intrigue and political machinations of all the people against the MC for so many reasons. The unique magic system is shaping up to be a fun one I feel like Pax is going to be creating epic gear. The cadre of friends are still there for him as he navigates the pitfalls and troubles of being a rebel with illegal magic. The sidekick pet is still cute but he gets some competition along that avenue. I think the part I like the most is the older brother snippets I have a feeling pax is going to outgrow his brother in power before they meet again.

Awesome!

There is some really cool advancements in this book. We still se a decent amount of fighting against the aristocracy and it looks like that is going to be a common occurrence through the series. Beast taming also became a central topic. I didn’t think it would be as big of a thing as it became. I really enjoyed getting to know the characters better. Holding off beast waves ramped up from the first book. The plot was entertaining and engaging. The narrator did a good job.

Solid sequel

This book is beautifully written. The story grabs you and doesn't let go. You feel for Pax and his new "family" of friends. Incideus turns out to be a great instructor and a rebel. Pax reaches level 2. Galen is finally out the picture. Who is this new family trying to kill Pax now? I can't wait to find out more in the next book. Also, another slot for another beast?!? Crazy!

Even Better than the first

Wowza I loved this book! After mentioning how much I loved Beast Companions in the review I wrote for bk1 Awakening Hoard. I decided that it was high time to talk about Talpa a Beast baby and Pax's first companion. From his description he's a star nosed mole with all the natural born abilities of a mole only with spikes 😆. And because he was the first companion he's already leveled up twice, enabling him to join Pax and play his part in the Beast Battles. And with more Beasts to join soon. You'll definitely NEED to find out what's in store for Pax and his family of friends.
So yeah grab this action-driven audiobook and enjoy, JS Arquin has a story to tell you.

Wowza I loved this book!

The power progression and everything is interesting but I feel like I'm forced through myself to read anytime there's an interaction with people

feels too juvenile

I guess I liked the story but the action and descriptions left me feeling like I was listening to what happened on the end of a phone. No color, little description and he barely describes the area or what folks wear but rarely. So it frustrated me but the last battle got a little better. So keep up the good work but please evaluate your current style of describing the world the people etc... Thank you.
