Rune Seeker 2

A LitRPG Adventure

By: J.M. Clarke, C.J. Thompson

Narrated by: Ralph Lister

Hiral must grow before a sky-island plummets. Fallen Reach is in danger, and only Hiral and his surviving teammates can save it. Gathering their strength after the loss of their friends, the Builder and Growers race across a hostile landscape to save their homes and obtain the power they need to battle their nigh-unstoppable enemies.

The companions must survive dungeons gone wild, the hunger of the dead, and the wrath of an ancient power that was once the hope of an entire people. Still, Hiral will not be deterred, and is ready to cut a path of destruction through his enemies and achieve the loftiest goal of all … to become overpowered. And probably explode.

The next exciting instalment of the hit Progression fantasy series from J.M Clarke, bestselling author of Mark of the Fool, and C.J. Thompson. Continue a weak-to-strong progression into power and a detailed LitRPG system with unique classes, skills, dungeons, achievements, survival, and evolution. Explore a mysterious world of fallen civilizations, strange monsters, and deadly secrets.

Progression

I've been enjoying this story and like how the characters progress, the fight scenes are well written and varied, and we get more information about the things mostly only hinted at in the first book. I would have liked a little more breathing room between fights and dungeons, but I know that in this genre progression is the key thing and that requires fights. I'm expecting--or at least hoping--that in the next book we will see more interpersonal interaction as the story broadens back out to include the Shaper and grower societies we were introduced to in the first book. The narration was decent but character voices still lacked sufficient differentiation, imo. Still, a good story and worth the listen.

awesome

I'm already salty about the length of books 4 and 5, but I love this series so far. narrator took a second for to get used too but now I can't hear anyone else reading it

Finally progressing!

Great trajectory, looking forward to the next zone. Starting to get some good gear and character confronts the death of friends.

Interesting World Building

The story and characters are well done; although the plot sometimes is too bogged down in the fights. The narrator is enjoyable and clear vocally.

While I do think the author gets a little too preoccupied with the dungeon fight scenes at times, the last several chapters had information that drew me back in to the extent that I actually sped up the audio to get to the end faster. I'm very much looking forward to listening to the next installment.

Yes

It’s worth the credit, you will not regret it. Keep it up author, can’t wait for the next one.
