Player Manager 2: A Sports Progression Fantasy

Player Manager, Book 2

De: Ted Steel

Narrado por: Luke Francis

Most Premier League fans are happy to cheer from the stands, but one fan—armed with some serious RPG talent—is taking his soccer pride onto the pitch.

Not too long ago, Max Best was stuck in a dead-end job, trudging from one day to the next and mourning the fact that his burning love of soccer was getting buried in a landslide of cold statistics and intangible tactics. Then, after saving an old man from a mugging, he was "cursed" with the ability to instantly ascertain a soccer player's attributes on sight and use that knowledge to upgrade his own skills. Now he's making a name for himself as an amateur team manager, but it's not enough for him to ditch his dud of a job.

Soon Max realizes there's only one logical next step to levelling up to his dream of being a top-tier manager: become a player himself. But first a great many things have to fall into place. From healing up his injured ankle to evaluating his real strengths as an athlete to continuing his scouting and dealing with his own client list, he's got a lot on his plate—to put it mildly.

Turns out there's a massive difference between knowing how the game is played and actually playing it. If Max really wants his dream to come true, he'll have to put in the work . . .

The second volume of the hit progression-fantasy series—with more than 700,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Soccer at its best

The Narrator is fantastic. He brings this story into full life. I kept chuckling throughout the entire story.
The story line is great, and the imagination Ted puts into his characters pulls you into it immediately.
I've listened to the first two books back-to-back and really got into the progression of Max. He seems to grow and learn about the world of Soccer and keep his morality. Even if he doesn't realize it.

LOVE

Obsessed! Greatly written & just all around fun to listen to! My new favorite series! I played growing up & currently coach. Would 10/10 recommend.

Every bit as good as the first!

The quality of the writing of the narration just keeps getting better! I am thoroughly enjoying this book, and I am all in on this series. It has made me a fan of English football. Dot dot

No Own Goal

This 2nd book was just as enjoyable as the first in the series. Steele has a way of entertaining and educating without losing momentum. You DON'T have to been a football (soccer) fan to enjoy this loveable series.

Just getting started

It’s so good. Must listen to this series, for sports fans and non sports fans
