Publisher's Summary

Leveling up. Fighting death. Living life to the max.

Zeke and his comrades have only been in Brindolla, their new world, for a short time, but every minute has been amazing. Kicking butt and not bothering to take names, the group has been moving forward in their quest to push back War, the galactic tyrant.

Then the unthinkable happens: Their friend is banished to the darkest Hells. Poof! Gone...just like that. 

Now, not only are they on a quest to stop the vanguard of War, but they are going to need to get stronger, faster, and better than ever before if they want to have any hope of busting into the Hells and getting their friend back. 

The Brindollan Gods plan to help as much as they can, but will it be enough to allow them to complete a task that even Orpheus in Earth's mythology couldn’t?

With the odds looking bleak and the world they’re trying to defend turning against them, they’re going to need to seek help from unlikely spaces, travel to new places, and break some faces.

loved the continuation of this story.

loved hearing the continued story of the group and how they have grown. It was great to see them deepen there bonds with one another and with the friends they made along the way.

Can't wait for the next one!

I love these books. They do a great job with ability progression without listing a character sheet every two minutes. The banter between everyone is arguably my favorite part. You can tell the characters in the story have all been friends for years and it shows.

It Ended

The second book is finished. I was enjoying so much I wanted it to continue. Thanks to stories like this one and Mountaidale Press, I am enjoying RPGLit.

The Boys are Back!!!

Great story and narration!

The boys are back and left reeling due to the loss of their thief. As they scramble to re-outfit themselves and get ready to go get him back, they find an old friend to join the cause. Slay the monsters, take the loot, level up, and party with the Dwarves?!!

If you liked the first book you will like this one too! It is a great sequel, and I can't wait for the next book to come out!!!

immediate LitRPG classic

just like book one this continuation lives up to the hype to the previous book! BJ does an amazing job of breathing life into this story I simply can't wait for the 3rd book to be finished that I may just READ it before it hits audible! astonishing, I know but the story has me that hooked!

A great sequel.

I found this one to be just as engaging and enjoyable as the first. I am hoping the next comes sooner rather the later.

Great Series

I am in love with this series. When you mix military and litrpg I am happy. I can't wait for the next book.

Page burner

Book two did not disappoint. I appreciate the personality of our adventurers and the storyline. Book three can’t come to Audible fast enough.

HURRY UP WITH BOOK 3!!

Not gonna lie, I completely binged books 1 and 2 of this series. I would go so far as to say the Axe Druid series is firmly planted on the top of my list of favorite series. While there are some trivial tropes as found in other LitRPG series, Christopher Johns did not shove them down your throat the way some other authors do. I know I shouldn't hold my breath for book 3, but I am completely hooked on this series.

another great book in the series.

I always have a laugh when it's like the mc knows that someone is watching them do what they do throughout the book.

I highly recommend this book and series for anyone who likes crafting and fighting and mc's who may become a tad overpowered.

Another enjoyable instalment in this series

This is not the ideal starting point to the series, but the first book is also an enjoyable one, so I would recommend people try that one first before this one.

This instalment in the series works well to build on the strong start of the first, with a good rate of progression in the main characters and their skills, while also elevating the challenges they have to face in the process, helping to further flesh out the world of this series.

The narrator's performance maintains the high standard set in the first book with a wide range of tones and voices to bring the increasing cast to life.

Overall, a strong follow-up to the first book and one that drew me further into the series very effectively.
