Resumen del Editor

Once a seasoned gamer, Max has cheated fate, swapping his dying body for an immortal avatar in the world of sword and sorcery MMORPGs. He joins the ranks of a new race of people: perma players, forever stuck in the virtual castles and cities of AlterWorld. Now they have to obey the ever-changing rules of their new home while learning to live together in peace, love, and justice.

But freedom and immortality are a poisoned chalice. Some of Max's new friends crave power; others become traitors and spies. Soon the first screams of pain fill the virtual world as its freshly minted slavedrivers and torturers indulge in the absence of law and order. Their crimes provide a constant flow of gold back to their real-world controllers: the power-happy governments plotting to take over AlterWorld's magic technologies and limitless resources. What would you do? Would you step aside and watch the magical world turn into the Earth's dark twin? Or are you strong enough to step in the virtual sharks' way?

The Endless Setbacks Never End, Which Is Great!

The story feels more full. Unexpected obstacles, and dirty betrayals abound in this epic next installment of the Play To Live series.

good book

I love the book and the series, the audiobook is amazing.
my only pet peeve is hkw many times he says my inner little pig it is way over used in this book.
but if you love litrpg and fantasy you will enjoy this book.

Nostalgic

If you remember the days of Everquest, this book is for you. It gave me goosebumps.

Good, but sexist

The story is pretty decent, but the characters aren't terribly memorable and there are a lot of sexist undertones that are off-putting.

Rpg thrill ride; Log Horizon comes to mind.

Loving this wonderful series so far. The narrator brings the characters and environment to life. The main character reminds me of Shiro from log horizon. Methodical, and sometimes a little to intelligent for his own good. Both endings; first book and this one were very surprising. excited to obtain the next book, but I might read something else; a little break in between.

An obvious cit just to break up the story

Story was just a little too much of all works out well in the end for me but worth listening to for the big picture.

Good Continuation

I really enjoyed the first book and eagerly anticipated the second one. It didn't disappoint. The continuation of Laith and his triumphs and blunders weaves the story well. This book again ended with a cliff-hanger. If I had one downside of the book, it is the use of his greedy pig so often. Eventually it toned down but there was a section of 5 minutes where he didn't talk about anything else!

Like the first book this one is good but not great

You can definitely pick up on the Russian cultural differences in this book. I wonder how much is lost in the translation. Also the narrator while generally very good, has some very strange pronunciations of certain words like dungeon somehow becomes dawnjin. It's not bad though, just something that can throw you out of the story for a second. Overall not a bad story though, and he keeps it interesting as things keep changing.

Really enjoyed the story I had to stop

I really enjoy the story idea. I think it is a fresh and it brings me back to when I played MMORPGs. I would recommended the books. The narrator does a good job. Not great, but good.

This is going to sound ridiculous, but I had to stop because I couldn't stand the main character saying "my inner greedy pig". Every time I heard it I would get a little more frustrated with the book. I think I was only two hours in on this book and had counted him saying it over 10 times. The last straw was when he said it 4 times in the span of 10 minutes.

Decent story idea, good narrator and okay writing.

more of the series!

please begin making so many more of this series added on to audible I would kill for more :) I love his series lol
