About this listen

Despite having their secret revealed, the residents of Melbrook Hall return to Lander University for another year in the Hero Certification Program. Good thing the focus of this year is teamwork, because with their origins known, they'll have to lean on each other more than ever.

Now finally sophomores, their curriculum expands, allowing them to train in the majors that Heroes specialize in. The new classes will test their minds, bodies, and determination in ways never anticipated. In a year filled with the unveiling of secrets, unexpected entanglements, and, of course, super-powered battles, who will be left standing is anyone's guess. Because if all that weren't enough, more light is being shed on last year's kidnapping attempt, and the results point at something far bigger than mere rogue educators.

Something that isn't even close to being over with.

Second book in the series, the writing style is approachable but detailed.
The narrator does a great job and this book is easier to listen to than the first. Looking forward to the third instalment!

Great second book

This was far better than Book 1, and I'm glad I pushed through it for this one. There's still some things about Drew Hayes's writing style that I dislike (e.g. the way he skirts around the main point of a section to provide mock suspense, the slow pacing of action, ), but these were far diminished (if not completely alleviated) in comparison to the first book. I actually cared about the characters this time around, and I felt like their motivations were much more compelling. Kyle McCarley's range of character voices is also amazing (and necessary given the massive cast of characters) - you can most often figure out which character is speaking even before they are introduced by name. Looking forward to listening to books 3 and 4!

Far better than Book 1

Found this series via a litrpg forum. While not strictly a litrpg it is an excellent series so far. Just finished book 2. Die loading book 3 straight away.
The narrator does such an excellent job I will Alonso be looking for other books he has narrated

Great series

I can't get enough of the characters - Hayes did such an exceptional job at developing the characters and takes you on a ride during their sophomore year it's incredible. Likewise, McCarleys narration is amazing and one of the best I have encountered through my sci fi reading!

Can't wait to listen to the rest in the series and the spinoffs.

Absolutely love it

Loved it from start to finish. Felt so immersed by the characters and every single word in the story it may have been a favourite television series I've been watching for seasons

Absolutely fantastic

Another great story well worth listening too. Great plot great caricatures and a nice long listen that you don’t get bored with.

Worth the listen

Overall the book is pretty good. There is a bunch of fat that could have been cut out as the story can waffle on. Most of the characters are engaging with the exception of Nick who comes across as a typical Larry Stu making most of his scenes very predictable. Unfortunately, both the Nick issue and waffling are symptoms of the same lack of rigorous editing.

The performance was great with each character being read distinct.

If you enjoyed the first book then you'll likely enjoy this one. It's not great literature but it's still pretty good.

Mostly good
