Forge of Destiny: Volume 2

Destiny Cycle, Book 2

By: Yrsillar

Narrated by: Natalie Naudus

The Argent Peak Sect has proved to be a place of wonder as well as danger.

Awoken as an Immortal, Ling Qi must contend with her peers on the mountain now that the great truce enforced by the Elders of the Sect is no longer in effect. In an Outer Sect increasingly falling into two camps, her friendships have made where she stands clear. To continue climbing the steep mountain of cultivation and maintain the friendships and allies she had gathered to her side, she must strive like never before. But it soon becomes clear that there is someone watching her from the shadows...someone with an unhealthy interest in her advancement.

Enemies lie in full sight and out of reach as well. Now comes the test of the foundation she built in her early months at the Sect. Will it be enough to support her through the turbulent Outer Sect?

Inspired by ancient folklore, modern martial arts, and Xianxia, Forge of Destiny cultivates a world both fantastic in setting yet familiar in the humanity of its inhabitants. Don't miss this second installment of one of the most popular titles on Royal Roads - with more than seven million reads - elegantly performed by Earphones Award-winning voice artist Natalie Naudus.

Character Development

The book had a pretty slow start but the series continues yes to be great!

Good fun.

I have recently found how much I enjoy the genre of cultivation fantasy books. That said, this is only the second author I find I can enjoy besides Will Wight. The first book I felt hesitant on but this one has me sold on getting the third. If you're a Wight fan, I can't say this will quite hit that bar but it's definitely worth a credit.

Great Continuation

It is a great follow up to the first book. It's slow in some places but it still keeps your attention.

A good sequel

I enjoyed this book, but there was a little more YA interpersonal drama than I would have preferred. However, the drama was heaviest at the beginning of the novel but seemed to decrease in throughout. Regardless, the other elements of the book made up for this minor annoyance. I have already started the 3rd book, I am only a few hours in, and I am already enjoying it far more than this one. I strongly suspect I will be buying the 4th book shortly. I would also like to add, I feel the narrator's performance has improved in this book.

Good book about Qi

Once you learn each of the names it gets even better it is also nice that it’s a saga so you can follow her travels for a bit and explore more in the world of Chi. If you enjoyed crouching Tiger, hidden dragon, this is similar.
