About this listen

For John Sutton, things are finally looking up... For now...

The farm is running smoothly, the local bandits have been pacified, and he is starting to understand how magic works. Though none of that will matter if he can’t get his Doom Points under control.

As Ellie seeks to join the ranks of Class Holders, the mystery surrounding her grandmother grows and the two of them set off to discover the truth. But her legacy as a Witch is not the only mystery that needs to be explored. A strange plant is growing in Ferdie’s field, and it’s given John a new quest.

Meanwhile, a secret organization spreading its tendrils of influence throughout the war-weary world is plotting to destroy the fragile peace John fought so hard to achieve. As the shadows that surround this world are peeled back, he'll need every ounce of wisdom and restraint he has ever possessed to keep from blowing the whole thing up himself.

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

mainly the sound effects is subpar during battles. I'd prefer more effects so that the narrator isn't explaining so much.

good book but the audio is lacking.

The character development was good and the narrators were good. he supposed to be a 28-year-old combat veteran? But in the romance department he only gets a kiss on the cheek. It just seems a little childish to me. Maybe that's just because I listened to a lot of harmlit books. But you could do a little bit better in the romance department. They are not 14-year-olds.

The narrators and sound effects were great. the romance was lacking.

A great second installment in the series. Great story building and progression. The apocalypse draws closer.

This book took a downwards turn for me after the promising first book. The character changed and the tone shifted majorly. I think this is my stopping point for this series.

Story changed in a bad way

I typically hate dramatized adaptations of litrpgs, not because the performances are bad, but usually because they are used to cover up awful stories. Where the first entry was a great story filled with supernatural farm building with great suspenseful arcs full of confrontations, dungeon diving, and slice of life elements without falling into the common litrpg pitfalls and tropes, this followup had no such luck.

This book is largely about the secondary character Ellie and how she comes into power and a large focus of the story is on her training and which heavily changes the tone of the entire story (and makes her character quite insufferable) reduces the story to a plethora of eye rolling clichés and cringe dialogue that is FAR too common in the genre. The first book was a refreshing take on litrpg with it's focus on farming and medieval/western themes. This follow-up however is exactly like every other eye-rolling litrpg you've ever read.

The performances are excellent as always, ESPECIALLY the wolf king who steals every scene he's in and has an actual personality, but the change in direction to the story is easily a sigs that the other sequels will follow suite. Was a big fan of book 1 but this one was a massive disappointment.

Follow up marred by a disappointing training arc
