Exiled Lands

Beastborne, Book 2

De: James T. Callum

Narrado por: Eric Michael Summerer

A journey through exiled lands to build and fight for a Sanctum’s survival, and a Beastborne that must transcend the boundaries of his monstrous abilities to rise above his primal nature, or else lose it all....

To claim his powers as Founder and secure their freedom, Hal and his cohort must fight to build a Sanctum where no other living kingdom dares to tread. The search for a Manaseed to serve as the Sanctum’s heart will take Hal and his caravan to distant, strange lands, and force them to weather vicious beasts and Manastorms alike.

To survive the trials ahead, Hal crafts weapons enchanted with rare loot and sates his appetite for monster essences...all while struggling to balance the price of his corrupting, otherworldly powers and securing a foothold in an unforgiving land.

Settlement building won’t be easy with only days to prepare for a siege they aren’t remotely ready for. Hal must challenge his limits as a Beastborne and juggle the needs of his burgeoning settlement. From constructing fortifications to maintaining morale and generating food, there isn’t a moment’s rest for Hal if he’s to be the first Founder to successfully stake a claim in the Shiverglades.

Can Hal find strength in an unlikely ally of the distant stars while managing the defenses of his settlement, or will the tidal wave of bloodthirsty monsters destroy them all?

Great Story, too much info

Love this series thus far. The characters and the world building is well done! Between Hal and his group, the author works to make the villains and monsters into an exciting D&D adventure that is run by a DM, with a sinister smile. Can't wait to read more!

The only thing I didn't like was the constant rehashing of Hal's skill tree descriptions. Yes, unless the focus is on one skill in particular, then people don't need the "Red Stars" ability description repeated 6-8 times in a 34.5 hour novel.

Good Story

I have enjoyed this series so far. The story itself is good despite the descriptions of battles being a little drawn out for my taste. I would have given this five stars all the way through but, the last 40 minutes of the story was just an overview of Hal's abilities. I didn't need or want that.

great continuation

great continuation to book one, fighting the monster in the mana storm to finally setting up their small settlement and an epic battle at the end that kept me on the edge of my seat

best lit rpg!

right! your looking for edge of yourseat this is it. Mc is smart and not op. he also cares for his party which was an plus for m

It’s a good story

I like the concept of how a system would work but I didn’t like how Hal kept reading his stats over and over. Almost every chapter he reads his stats at least once.

Love the story

The story holds my attention , I love Hal and all the others. How to build on a different reality is wonderful. How to be open and learning is even better. Looking forward to the next book.

great story

ending was a little upsetting 40+ mins of skills and stats didn't really care for that to much.

beastborn

Great continuation of the beastborn series. The only complain for me would be the tedious length of the fight and siege. After awhile of the fight started to lose focus and intrest.

great story and good author

really enjoy this series I just wish it had a little more action and a little less play by play for ingredients to make a potion.

Good story line, good action and interesting characters.

Some characters are really cute and the action kept me interested in the story. Very creative story line and the evolution of the main character made me want to see where the story lead.
