My Opinion: 341 pages, $4.99, Available On Kindle Unlimited
This is a light LitRPG story that has even less direct progression than book one did. The story starts as space sci-fi with a good fight. But about 15% in, it shifts to a smaller buddy adventure on earth. For me, it was a great turn from the space battles, and helped ground the story in something relatable. It's one thing to have a vague desire to save earth, but the author made you care about the people, whether they were jerks or not. The sci-fi space opera stuff is more prominent at the beginning and end of the book with aliens, space battles, and some crafting.
However, what I found a bit lacking was the RPG progression. There's some crafting and resource gathering but nothing nearly as interesting as what happened in book one.
Overall, a good entertaining story that loses a little bit for me, because of just how little RPG progression there was.
Score: 7.4 out of 10
