Publisher's summary

The long-awaited sequel to Jake’s Magical Market is finally here—and now with more market!

Well, not quite yet. First, Jake has to survive a perilous trek through time if he ever hopes to return home to his friends, his market, and his former world. The last time we saw our intrepid hero, Jake had barely managed to escape being trapped on a dead version of his own world. Using a combination of his new powers, he threw himself backward through time, back to when the god that trapped him first rose to power. There, Jake snatched divinity from the hands of the ascending god, consuming it for himself without any regard for the consequences of his actions. In a surprise twist, such a poorly thought-out plan came with some serious downsides! Now Jake has a big target painted on his back. The jealous gods of this world are hungry for divine power and not afraid to kill another god to get it. Stuck in the past, Jake must learn to navigate a world full of desperate gods, wild monsters, bizarre powers, and weird “cultivating” mortals who claim they can become just as powerful as the gods themselves—as long as they get to sit around contemplating the mysteries of the universe for a few hundred years first. Join Jake on his next grand adventure as he learns what it means to be a newly ascended divinity, how to survive in such a strange new world, and how he might just have an unexpected edge on everyone and everything that’s out to get him—by learning how to craft his own magical cards!

**Boasting a 4.7-star rating with over 11,000 reviews on Amazon/Audible, this sequel is a must-have for fans of Gamelit novels, wild adventures, and stories about regular people traveling to strange new worlds. Also, stay tuned for the third book in the series, which is gonna be even bigger, crazier, and full of even more magical cards. And it’s coming out in just a couple of months!**

for the first time change in narrator did not lessin my enjoyment of the book

normally when a audible book changes narrator It ruins the book for me. however this time the made it's as painless as possible I really like the new narrator. I love travis his is one of my favorite narrator so the new one had alot to live up to however he did. great book

Thank you for the information

The book was fantastic. But the biggest thing I would say is the way the author, and even the narrator explained what was the reasons that they had a switch narrators… thank you for that.
I’ve had a few series I’ve liked that have switched narrators out of nowhere with at least no explanation in the audiobook maybe they have some explanations somewhere else as somebody who doesn’t follow something on Facebook, etc. I wouldn’t have known . When that happens for whatever reason, my brain turns off and is uninterested. Thankfully they explained and I gave it a chance. It was off putting at first but once I got into it, there was no difference. One thing I would say is possibly re-releasing the first book with the new narrator so when we that relisten to the first book and then the second to get ready for the third there is no difference. But I understand that cost money and time, but a suggestion.

Can’t tell the difference

I haven’t finished the book at the time of writing
And while the overall narration is different
The voice acting for the characters is ON POINT

Great Book

I love Jack and his snark and can not wait for his next adventure.

Great story and performance

Travis can make a subpar story into a great listen. This story is great enough to be worth it no matter who performs it. John does a great job, and was a great pick!

Jakes relationships are ephemeral as his illusions.

I liked the story, it's fun, I would recommend. My biggest complaint is that his relationships with other people are all doomed to end. it happened last book it happened in this book (with the exception of one character). It actually made me upset when he started actively sabotaging his current relationships by treating them badly because he was throwing himself a pitty party.

Great story and performance

Between John Pirhalla's performance and the story itself, there was never a dull moment for which I could not stop listening!

John Pirhalla was wonderful and a superb replacement for Travis Baldree and I can't wait for the next book!

looking forward to 3

it did take me a while to get back into this book after listening to the first book when it came out. I'm not sure if it was a mix between the time, the narrator change, and how different this one was from where the last one left off. once I got comfortable with it though it ripped along and looking forward to the next one.

Great follow up to the first book.

As a big fan of Travis Baldrees narrations I honestly think the new narrator knocked it out of the park!

New negator same great story.

When I heard the negator changed I almost skipped this book. I’m so glad I didn’t the story didn’t miss a beat it is just as good as the first book!
