Phantom of the Haunted Bog

A LitRPG Adventure (The Lone Wanderer, Book 2)

By: K. Georgiades aka PathOfPen

Narrated by: Austin Rising

A world-shaking discovery. Elixirs coveted by gods. A frantic escape.

Percy never wanted fame. A cast-off noble who dreams of nothing more than than cleansing his cores, he thought his alchemical breakthrough—Aurora Dew—would cover his needs and let him grow stronger. But when the Divine Order demands his secret on pain of death, Percy makes a single, fateful choice: he runs.

Hiding in a forsaken town next to the Grisly Bog, Percy and the companions who joined him in self-imposed exile train in secret, mastering arts unknown to this world. Now that they're being hunted, their goals have shifted: infiltrate the aristocracy, take down House Tantalus—the vampiric nobles who murdered Percy’s parents—and seize the elixirs they need for ascension. But gods don’t forget, vampires don’t forgive, and revenge-fueled cultivation draws attention from predators in every corner of the cosmos.

They want his secrets? They'll have to pry 'em from his cold, dead fingers.

Good! 👍

Still like the story and want to know where it goes from here but it was a bit slower for me than the last time. And a bit more challenging to get through some parts. Overall I still like the book and the series. Still annoyed 😑 by the pronunciation of projectile though. It made it a bit harder to get through fight scenes that I was already having trouble with. I just gave up trying to understand everything during fight scenes and I’m okay with that.

Simply excellent

Love it, virtually no notes, I eagerly await the next installment. Keep up the good work, highly recommend this book to nearly everyone.

Unique overall

I’ll read the next when it comes out, but I might not be in a rush to do it. I’m not sure if it’s the author acerbating the situation, but the timing is a little odd … feels inexperienced maybe. But good premise and a new fun way of doing things. May need some more help with character development as well- things are a little flat in here.

I had to speed the performance up to not get annoyed with overlong pauses on punctuation. Way more “ telling a story” than living it with them…but that might have been the writing lol.

Really good story

Really good story. It's a bit slower then most multiversal storys but that's fine. Not everything has to be fast paced. As for it being better then primal hunter tho. Yeah that's a stretch. It's up there tho. Hope the love interest doesn't ruin the story like many others do. But we will see.

Invested! Incredible!

Spectacular story! Very original and creative for this genre. Honestly I am very impressed. I have listened to hundreds of books in this genre and this series easily holds it's own. Hearing about all the new worlds Percy visits with his soul clone is epic, plus who doesn't love a good underdog story! This series is better than Primal Hunter and Defiance of the Fall. I'd put it next to some of my favorites like He who fights monsters, 1% Lifesteal and Path of the Berserker. I am very excited to see the story progress. Also great narrator!
