Revisado: 10-29-24

Enjoy this one was fantastic. And I’m adding more words to meet this minimum threshold they want.

It’s like this whole book was a soap opera.

Revisado: 09-04-24

I swear it felt like every other chapter someone was crying for stubbing their toe or some other reason. In fact it just followed a basic loop throughout the whole story, fight in dungeon, do white knight goodie two shoes activities, then have a heart to heart and then cry. It didn’t matter the character or what the topic was about someone shed some tears. All that said I suppose it was fine though I did skip through the sappy parts and the cringy cheesy white knight monologues. Other than that the book would be excellent.

While I enjoyed it, there are are problems

Revisado: 06-22-24

The authors inner monologues and diatribes are exhausting to go through. It’s especially grating how he lists 45 things he can’t do before he tells you the one thing he can. In fact the book reads more like some retiring college professors memoirs filled with all of his I shoulda done this or coulda done that if not for xyz. I just sped the audio up to 1.5 to deal with this but at times I was irritated.

**My 5 star rating does not make it a 5 star book just a recommendation that it’s worth listening to.**

This was so good

Revisado: 06-16-24

My 5 stars doesn’t mean it’s a 5 star book I just mean it’s worth the credit and listen. Too many bots these days but I thoroughly enjoyed this and I’m looking forward to the next book.

I’m convinced “Bruce Sentar” is a pseudonym for multiple authors.

Revisado: 05-11-24

Like another reviewer said this book came off as juvenile. I’m convinced that there are 2 different authors writing under the same name as the first half of the first book in this series is very much like this one. Boring and full of witless banter. The second half of the first book so much better I could only conclude that there were 2 different authors working the same piece. It’s so different in overall style and tone that it was night and day. Not to mention the narrator makes the mc sound like a sleazy used car salesman. But honestly you can skip this book because literally nothing of note happens in this book.

This book was gritty in a good way

Revisado: 05-08-24

So the author did an excellent job in nailing the gritty details. It’s also not a hyper inflated isekai hero novel. The beginning is a bit rough but it gets pretty good once you get past that. Few errors in the sound recording but not that bad. I definitely recommend this book it’s good.

Good ending

Revisado: 04-23-24

This was a good ending and I recommend it. It was definitely worth it. Nothing else to say really just typing this last bit to fulfill the minimum words, enjoy.

Book has a tonal shift halfway through

Revisado: 04-13-24

Book wasn’t terrible until about the halfway mark. Book started out following 1 path and then ended up shifting entirely to a different one. Which in my mind makes no sense since you should have either started with the latter half right from jump street or continued with the former. Basically the book started as a mage cultivation adventure book to a litrpg base building bs halfway through and where as I enjoy both types the way that they were unceremoniously slapped together made me annoyed. Either way you look at it the first half the book was superfluous at best and was a waste of time.

Incessant inner thoughts

Revisado: 04-09-24

This book wasn’t terrible but aside from the beginning and the end it was effectively 4 hours of mc thinking. This annoyed me because the story could have, no should have progressed a hell of a lot farther than it did. Instead this feels like a pre amble and not a first book.

Exposition

Revisado: 03-17-24

So the first book had a ton of exposition in it and it seems the author decided to double down. This book is such a drag throughout most of the book. Author also likes the say the same thing in 3-10 sentences as if you didn’t get it the first time. Story feels padded because of this. Also if I remember correctly the end of the first book made it seem like our mc made it to safety and this new empire. Only he didn’t in this book he spends the whole time walking there in this one too. So the story doesn’t actually progress with new characters new locations and new challenges. This feels more like and addendum to book 1. Could have been worse but still a disappointment and leaving me wonder if further titles will be worth my time and money. I recommend if you are out of options. But only then.
