About this listen

Journey to the center of Pallos!

Lule is dead. Toke is missing.

Escaping from the devastating battle between the dragon and the Guardians, Elaine and the dwarves have fallen deep into an abandoned, unused mineshaft. Danger lurks around every corner, from starvation, traps, orcs, and more! Elaine must survive in the hostile stone tomb, cut away from the sky, away from her friends and comrades. She needs to find a way to escape, or be buried forever.

Weren't there rumors of the dragon's lair being down here?

With litrpg authors I can often tell when they've exceeded the basic outline of a narrative and they've started to start writing "organically". This generally leads to sloppiness and a deterioration of themes as well as plot that often challenges suspension of disbelief, and *Moonveiled Journeys* suffers from these things - slightly. It does get wobbly and even bad in some instances; for example, during a class-up all of the potential classes are examined and many of them are discarded. Then in the next chapter, they are no longer discarded until the protagonist's reasoning is repeated and they are, once again, discarded. Later, when meeting some new characters, they follow a long camping-and-traveling sequence to introduce the new characters and their culture with a long preparation for a battle that becomes exhausting. Like anime filler, these sloppiness shows in the repetition and the pacing.

Having said that, there's stuff to love here. There are moments of genuine excitement and the character progression (one of the best things about this series) is great when not bogged down by filler pacing and repetition. Additionally, there's character growth that shows our protagonist growing into an adult who starts making choices based on who she wants to be. She's still obsessed with mangoes, books, and heroism, but she's making more choices based on her first two loves rather than her last. I'm even a fan of the elves who show up late in the book but I need them to get on with fighting or ducking (preferably fade to black) or actually learn a craft or actually advance magic or something. . . there's just so much interest in romance or interest in learning magic or interest in brewing with no actual payoff that it is starting to read like the worst YA novels for girls and that has, until this moment, never been a pitfall for this series as Elayne acts. . . you know, usually.

Last Half of the Book Feels like YA for Girls

so lots of plot holes but the one that keeps getting me is her system clock. in book one she specifically talks about how she has an Earth based system clock. an references it multiple times through the book.

A minor mystery or two get solved in the book and a couple of others get added as well. The world slowly gets revealed in more details and new species introduced.

Spoiler alert……






If you freak out with spiders be aware… there are numerous spiders here.



Still loving the series

While it did meander a little and was a bit stat heavy, everything else built on the world and the story. Felt a little slower but that was mostly because it wasnt all "I'm going to die" and had more "I can live" slice of life parts.

Not Bad. no where near as bad as these folk acted.

Good book

While obviously not as action packed as the last book, I really don't see why some reviewers are complaining about this one. I found it to be plenty engaging and it held my attention nearly the entire time. Really, don't worry about it and just go for it - chances are you will like it if you are a fan of the series.

To be balanced in the review, there were some times when the author clearly forced things to go, and people to act, in an unrealistic way for the sake of steering the plot, which I found fairly annoying.
