About this listen

"Has your life here been so difficult? You seem to fail upward at every opportunity."

So says Careena, the hag teaching Clyde Hatchett how to use magic. It certainly doesn't feel like that to Clyde, who's still got a day job scraping mud (at least he hopes it's mud) out of monster pits, and whose "thieves' guild" is more concerned with baking cookies than with protecting him against a rival gang. He keeps accumulating roommates - like a freed sex slave and a retired paladin - who make him nervous, but for very different reasons. And let's not get started on the mimic that's taken up residence by Clyde's shower, or the supposedly tame grimeling in his closet....

And yet even with all the annoyances, distractions, and occasional death threats, Clyde's found himself at the center of a massive conspiracy to kill the Emperor. He's the only one with proof that could save the man, and take down an entire network of corrupt nobles, evil slavers, and power-hungry despots. Clyde really hopes Careena is right about him - the fate of the entire Empire depends on it.

If you loved The Good Guy Series, you will love this one. I highly suggest you ignore the summary of what this book is about cause it's very wrong. I think the author had it as a place holder and never updated it.

Great Series

Again another great book in the guys series I didn't want say good or bads since I believe it the all be tying in together. Was at 1 point drinking a soda when the author talks about one of the guards doing what any guard would do what any guard would ever do. And then he ran away screaming . I was drinking soda at the time I blea mountain pew out of my nose it was very painful but very funny. Good time can't wait to see how they tie to together.

Eric doesn't disappoint another great book

2020 (2021) has been a tough year(s). So, when I feel overwhelmed I listen to (escape into) the series to cheer me up. And I’m not embarrassed to admit I have probably listened to both the Good Guys and Bad Guys series 4-5 times. Like I said, it been a rough year.

These books have the perfect blend of humor, action and drama. The characters are well developed, honest, and consistent. But not depressing like you would find in “great literature”. After all, it’s a pandemic! I don’t need, or want, tragic emotionally deep characters. Yuck! Instead; Ugland provides protagonists who are heroic, humble, and fallible, without being sappy, or hopeless.

The action is well paced, comic relief perfectly timed, and storyline isn’t predictable. Even after 14 books, to date, I am happy to report I still get surprised.

I can not recommend both the Good Guys and Bad Guy series enough! (Which is why I’ve copy-n-paste this review into all the series books).

Best series EVER!

This second book was a great improvement! This was a crazy ride! Now i know how that spell that hurt my main chancellor of the other series! Now I’m invested to see how these two story further match up!

Great second book!
