The Gam3, Book 2

By: Cosimo Yap

Narrated by: Nick Podehl

The Earth has changed. War is now fought in an alien virtual reality - the Game - where many of the players are anything but human.

Now part of the Black Rose guild, Alan heads to the Academy to level up and get stronger. He hopes to make allies and learn skills to win the battles to come. But with everyone pursuing their own agendas, what can one gamer do in a universe he still doesn't fully understand?

Nice installment into the LiT-RPG world

Fun series! Book 2 was as good if not as fun as the first! Can’t wait for the third!

Great Performance and Exciting Story

I went through both books in just under two days. I didn’t want to stop listening to it. Nick Podehl’s performance was on point, as usual. He brings the characters to life and Cosimo’s story kept my attention consistently. It’s a good litrpg for those interested. I’m looking forward to the next.

Absofreakinlutely worth every second!

I loved every moment of this book. I would highly recommend it to all readers!

excellent in all respects

Great story and narration. highly recommended. I will definitely be rereading this book soon. This series is definitely among the top in my list.

Another great title!

Great book! Really enjoyed it a lot. One of my very favorite litrpg for sure.

Wow

I love this series so much I wanna give it less stars because of how unhappy I am with how long it's taking to make book 3

Now with more Space Opera

This book really dove a lot more into the politics within this world. There are some interesting things going on and a major plot line gets some resolution within this book after some nice twists. This book also added in some more 'mechanics' about the world (ie: RTS games) that come off as strange and left me wondering how it all works within the context of everything. The result is that some people might need to just give it a pass or use a bit of suspension of disbelief. Finally, one of the worst written action sequences happened in one of these RTS moments with perspective jumping back and forth between 2 points. My recommendation to the author if he decides to do this again in the future might be to simply write out what happens in one perspective to completion and then write out the other perspective and then merge them. A side-by-side action play of what's happening at the same time is rough to follow in the audio format and only slightly better on paper. Podehl's performance was great! I like his performance for Lambda, who might show up a bit more. Can't wait for Book 3, looks like their might be a wait for it though.

Awesome book to listen to

Pretty great sequel to the first book. Can't wait for the next one to release.

A fantastic follow-up to an amazing series

I love the first book, and this second book in the series did not disappoint. Another amazing performance from Nick Podehl. This series sits at the top of LitRPG for me, and I cannot wait to listen to the next installment.

Amazing

The second book was just as amazing as the first! Can't wait to read the third!!
