How to Survive at the End of the World 2

How to Survive at the End of the World, Book 2

De: R. C. Joshua

Narrado por: Lawrence Parker

The stakes have never been higher.

After a time skip to the apocalypse left Sean Lawrence scrapping with everything from superhero rabbits to giant lightning gods, he upped the ante and forced the issue himself, diving out of the frying pan and straight into the risking-everything-to-save the world fire.

Now, he's racing against the young elites of the universe through killer dodgeball matches, arenas filled with armored snakes, and glitchy, system-breaking, vision quests. His answer to it all? Stab anything that gets in his way with the finest cobbled-together garbage he manages to lay his increasingly grubby hands on.

If he comes through alive, he just might have a chance at saving everything. In a world where his best supports are a strange octopus offworlder, a bald leather worker, and a guy in an Alf t-shirt, the odds against him are looking longer all the time.

How to Survive at the End of the World is an adrenaline-pumping apocalypse LitRPG series. This backward-regression series follows Sean as he travels to the future and is forced to deal with threats with less time and experience than everyone else. On his side are a non-traditional shanky class and lots of time magic. But in front of him are giant monsters, an offworlder alien invasion, and a world on the edge of collapse.

consistent pacing

stat reads are what they are with RPG style books and even though there are many iterations of this similar trope. I greatly enjoyed the narrorator and the pacing of the book. Usually with this style of read the fights get dragged out and the plot drags for whatever reason. book 1 and 2 of this series does not. At least in my opinion. I haven't started book 3 yet but I'm pleased with the idea that this author might find an ending to the series keeping the book count at a reasonable level. maybe a trilogy...I haven't read the third book yet. Book 1 was time travel system initiation and book 2 was the competition and book 3...we will see. if you are reading this and enjoyed vol 1 keep reading. If you can appreciate a comedic twist to AI systems such as similar with Dungeon Crawler Carl, keep reading. If your looking for a dakota trout style serious read then, just know, this isn't it. I loved it. 5/5

it a struggle

this book is what happens when the joke becomes more important than the story.
