Shrubley, the Monster Adventurer 2

Shrubley, the Monster Adventurer, Book 2

De: James T. Callum, K.H. Sohmer

Narrado por: Travis Baldree

When the flames of the Demon Wars threaten to engulf the land, only a tiny shrub can save the day.

Shrubley, the Hero Adventurer, has vanquished the serpentii threat. Everything he ever wanted is within his twiggy grasp: fame, fortune, adoration, and the love of the people who had once shunned him for being a monster. But Shrubley is an adventurer at heart.

Along with his monstrous friends, Cal, Slyrox, and Smudge, Shrubley embarks on a long journey to the fabled monster city of Pandaemonium.

Guided by Countess Haalften, Shrubley seeks to master his Sage Knight essence healing powers even as vampyrs, monsters, and bandits ambush the party along the way.

But Shrubley's knack for enmeshing himself in grand schemes is without equal. He stumbles upon a plot to use rogue Dungeons to reignite the Demon Wars between monsterkind and the core races of Almora.

Few would expect the lowliest of all monsters to be the savior of both mankind and monsterkind. After all, how could one shrub stop a plot decades in the making? You could ask the serpentii the same thing—if there were any left.

Entertaining Cozy LitRPG

A slime, a skeleton, a goblin, a vampire, and an animated shrub walk into a dungeon....

The character work here is quite good, with memorable characters experiencing entertaining character arcs. The characters are still very sympathetic and you want them to overcome their challenges. They do occasionally drift a little far toward the saccharine, but not to the point that I was ever taken out of immersion.

The plot isn't quite as tightly crafted as that in the first volume. It's still a fun read, but it gets a bit scattered at times. That said, the story builds toward a crashing conclusion that leaves the reader wanting the next volume.

The world is an entertaining one, and we get to see more of it as our heroes travel from the fringes of their world toward the more powerful center.

The second episode in this cozy LitRPG story is not quite as tightly crafted as the first, but it's still entertaining. Recommended.
