About this listen

From the author of the Gods Are Bastards series: The wickedly funny action-adventure portal fantasy continues—and things can only get worse . . .

Not long ago, Seiji was an ill-tempered, misanthropic man at war with the world. But then he was transported to a strange, savage realm for the purpose of literally making war on the world. In this reality, he's an extremely reluctant evil overlord with a temperamental goddess patron to please.

So in spite of his own natural unpleasantness, Seiji has tried to be the best bad guy he can be: providing for the downtrodden, offering healthcare to hookers, that sort of thing. Which has won him some staunch (but still diabolical) allies and a hell of a lot of enemies. Especially his main competitor in chaos and crime, Lady Gray, who really didn't appreciate being displaced by him.

But Seiji's coming to realize that despite his brash, bold exterior, his very human psyche is taking a serious beating from the extreme brutality he's committed and witnessed. In fact, he's starting to wonder if being such a big bad dude is all it's cracked up to be—or if there's any way out of all this . . .

The second volume of the hit fantasy adventure series—with more than five million views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Too much talking and too little action

Interesting characters and world building, I feel there's a good story creeping through the gaps in the monologue.

The protagonist is constantly reminding the listener of how much of a 'better" person he is without any real action. At least 80% of the story is the "dark lord" monologuing on the same "moral" points again and again. While the actions happens in the background with little or no reason but to prove how great and conflicted the protagonist is. You can tell he really is great because all the woman like him.

Sadly it didn't add anything to the first book and feel everything could of been resolved then rather than dragging it out over another book.

Solid Prog Fantasy

The adventures of the unwilling Dark Lord continue. The book is a bit heavy-handed in its moralizing, but the characters are sympathetic and developed well and the plot is entertaining and progresses significantly. This book does end at a reasonable stopping point.

The Hero does not play a significant part in this book, which seems a lost opportunity.

This series has been entertaining enough so far that i will be continuing with it soon. Recommended.

excellent storytelling

the narrator was flawless like the first book, and the story gets wild. By this point you've already got an understanding of all the relevant characters and build up, so all that's really left is watching the dominoes fall.

Somehow, It's Even Better

The first book was amazing. Great characters, great worldbuilding, great humor, and great magic. The problems were nice and unique, the solutions fresh and interesting, and everyone felt like real, human characters. Consequences were real and brutal, and situations complex enough to bring the world to life. Plus, the narration was some of the best I've ever heard.

And yet I come to you on this fine day to say that somehow, the second book is better. Maybe because we have more connection to the characters. Maybe because they lean more in to the humor. Maybe because they turn the sheer charisma Seiji is projecting up to eleven. But somehow, Webb managed to make a sequel that surpasses the original.

It's a thoroughly enjoyable continuation of the story, and I quite like how everything progressed. I'd also like to thank the author for putting so much effort into finalizing this book, as I've heard it's been hard on their mental health. As much as I can't wait for book three, please do take some time for yourself.

Solid

A very solid isekai story. no anoying sexual objectifying of women by MC or romance at all ( so far) The main can be high handed and snooty at times, but then he can also be self aware, and admits when he makes a mistake.

a lot of kingdom building mechanics ( that I love), I wish we got to hear more of the day to day in the castle, of the army coming together and building a community. A lot of the side characters are come and go to me, can't really put a name or action to most characters except a few.

The narration is, what can I say, a big part of why I even picked up the book in the first place. It's Todd literally my favorite narrator of all time. so I may be bias.

a solid addition

A fine addition to the series that leans into being a bit more of a political drama, regrettably our dark lord is not feeling up for a musical performance, wich makes me a little sad, but instead we get some hearth acke, the chapter titles love to miss direct speculation, and due to how cruel the world can be it can really stress out those utterly immersed.

The subjects covered here are insane! I teared up like twice! Trauma, feminism, the role of a leader, and so much more


There's not much negative to say about this one, if I had to pick something I'd say that the final confrontation with the main antagonist is rushed. Aside from that one thing that is great about this one is the pacing! Sometimes it feels other authors waste time but not here every moment is important. Oh and the performance! Shout out Todd Haberkorn! Very excited for the next book

DEI nonsense

seriously this is quite incredible this is an . DEI lit RPG.
The author is clearly a leftist incel with a hero complex. lots of moral grand standing and preaching by the MC who is apparently supposed to be evil. yet goes around saving people.
