About this listen

The manhunt has officially begun.

Now the target of a game-wide Holy War, Ned is forced to flee the Onyx Sands.

The odds are stacked against him; Tyrann has tens of thousands of followers, a religion that’s spreading like wildfire, and a powerful god that will be stepping into the world of EBO in a matter of days.

Meanwhile, Ned’s allies are a squirrel-exploding bard, a repurposed home security system who takes her instructions far too literally, and a wildly unreliable talking axe named Frank.

But even as the inevitable conflict draws closer, change is coming to EBO. An old power is stirring, bringing with it strange new enemies, fearsome challenges, and rewards that every player will be vying to obtain.

There will be blood.

Not enough for Frank, but a very substantial amount.

The ripple system is easily in my top 5 book series while remaining completely unique. The game world blends with the setting and characters seamlessly so that it all falls into the background of both great characters and story. Looking forwards to book 3.

One of the best series yet.

I had my criticisms of the first book but I came back to the second book in the series because I really really like the world he’s building, the mechanics, the flavor, I like what he’s adding to the litrpg genre.
The main protagonist wears a lot of plot armor, but you want him to win so it doesn’t hurt the overall story.
Kyle is clearly a newer writer (don’t take that as an insult) but there have been notable improvements in his writing since the first book.
I’m upset that book 3 isn’t out yet. Get on it, because the ending has set up for some interesting changes and challenges.

Great world building, unbeatable protagonist
