The End of the Trucking World: An Apocalypse LitRPG

Battle Trucker, Book 2

De: Tom Goldstein

Narrado por: Zura Johnson

It's humans against monsters in a high-octane race for survival in the second installment of this apocalyptic pedal-to-the-metal LitRPG adventure.

Ever since the System brought magic and monstrous mayhem to Earth, long-haul trucker Jill "Junkmouth" MacLeod has had a need for speed. The highway snaking through the Midwestern plains is the battleground, and the stakes are the lives of not only Jill but thousands of survivors along for the ride. Together with Bertha, her mega-upgraded, fully-turreted, heavily-armored Soulbound big rig, Jill has the edge—so far.

The good news? For every blood-hungry abomination Jill has flattened into roadkill, she's gained experience, levels, and loot to upgrade Bertha. The bad? It's still a long and dangerous road to the East Coast, where her family is waiting for her. She just has to keep the pedal pressed down as they blaze their way through hordes of ever-stronger monsters and across a Midwest that is far bigger—and wilder—than it should be.

But if Jill thought the fallen city of Billings behind them had been bad, the road east is even worse. Outside of Bertha, the magic keeps growing more powerful, making everything—even the plants—deadlier and smarter. And inside, a darkness is taking root among the passengers, including those Jill counts on the most. Now Jill herself, so used to taking on the open road alone, will have to learn to lead—and maybe swear less. Maybe.

The second volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series—with more than 500,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Great LitRPG that is Fresh and Fun

I love this series and I can’t wait for the next! It is a great take on the LitRPG series with a great and rational MC. Love it, and I need the next one.

Hilarious & Unconventional. I Love It!

While I'm a big fan of rpglit, I'm pretty picky and somewhat difficult to please. This book, though, is AWESOME. It has a completely unconventional plot: a soul bound big rig in a system universe with a strong, brave, and compassionate female lead with a major case of pottymouth; lovable characters with great character progression; and an awesome sense of humor. Seriously, I've lost count of the number of times I've laughed out loud while listening to this book.

As far as I can tell this is a brand new author. I really hope that he continues to write and develop this series and that more people discover it so that he knows that his hard work is appreciated.

I will warn, you, though. Remember when I said that the mc has major potty mouth? Well, that was a bit of an understatement. As in, this lady could put an entire platoon of Marines to shame. I and many others find it hilarious, but if you're someone who's easily offended, then you might want to skip this one. Just don't go listening to it and come back here to leave a nasty review because of the language. It's a plot point, and it's not fair to the author. You have been warned.

Sorry, I almost forgot: the narration is awesome and I can't imagine a better fit!

Where can I get a BERTHA

The battle trucker series is great just different enough to feel exciting. Jill’s colorful use of language is always appreciated. The series has a great deal of heart. I recommend the series to anyone

Fun Story - Even Better Than The First Book

This was a fun story that I enjoyed even more than the first book. Characters are likable and the ending is good.

I LOVE It!!!!

This book is amazing! I could not be more happy! I am so glad that I started this series!

Great series. My choice for a TV series.

I love the LitRPG genre. Back in the opening sentences of Book 1, trucker Jill had to deal with Magic, Monsters and Statscreens suddenly coming into the world. So she upgraded her truck, Bertha. If you're here, you've likely done Book 1 and loved it as much as I did. If not, go get Book 1.

For Book 2, Jill needs to deal with having a monster truck with the capacity of several 777's. She has to negotiate with bureaucrats and townsfolk while still dealing with monsters. I loved it. However, not quite the intensity of the first book. Dealing with hundreds of people ... not quite as exciting as a smaller team. Jill and Bertha are still lots of fun. Book 2 has a Town cultivation to go with the monster fighting.

The question often comes up -- what LitRPG is best for a TV series? In my mind, it's this series. Most items in the series can be done cheaply. The premise -- Jill has a Magic Truck -- isn't the mind-scrambler that other series would require.

Highly recommended. This is one of my top ten favorite series, out of hundreds.

Good

it's a good storyline with a nice pace progression. Can wait for the next! NEXT UP!

Tammy I live you

A solid story so far

Book 1 - I was really iffy on this series. I believe I picked up the first book for free, otherwise I doubt I would have given it a shot. The beginning of this series took a little bit to get used to the story. The author uses a lot of corny swear word alternatives - like mother trucker instead of MFer. Needless to say, once I started getting into the book and got use to the odd swear words - the book wasn’t too bad. I’m sure there is going to a select group who will like this series while everyone will probably hate it. I’d recommend at least given it a shot - Just buy it on sell or even better wait til it’s free again. I did pick up book 2 which I enjoyed - I did purchase it with Kindle Unlimited. I will definitely be checkout book 3.
Book 2 - If you liked book 1 then you should enjoy book 2. Same storyline and same corny swear words. You’ve just gotten used to it. Book 2 was worth the cost. I definitely recommend it.
