The Society of Starry Eyes

A Budding Scientist in a Fantasy World, Book 2

De: Acaswell

Narrado por: Alexandra Ryan

A determined young woman struggles to uncover the secrets of the System itself—before the unthinkable happens—as this LitRPG adventure continues.

Transported from Earth to an entirely new planet, filled with magic and monsters, Alice Verianna has not only had to figure out how to survive but to learn and grow while she's at it. But what's really driven her from the time of her arrival is the desire to investigate—and determine the true nature of—the seemingly omnipotent System that holds sway over all things in the world of Luliv.

Alice takes a major leap forward when she finds a patron researcher who helps her gain admittance to magic school, where she gets to study everything from self-defense to monster biology. But the more she advances both academically and personally, the more she suspects something might be wrong with the System itself...

Adding to the danger and darkness, the enigmatic Society of Starry Eyes has been working in the shadows, conducting experiments with broken mana and human beings—to horrifying results. With the Society growing ever bolder and the land on the precipice of disaster, can Alice discover what's wrong with the System before it's too late?

The second volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series—with almost two million views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Fun scientific perspective on a Litrpg

I really enjoyed the book. Cant wait for the next one! The author takes a interesting perspective on what the science of magic might look like

I find this book Fascinating.

In all honesty this is far better then the first one. a lot more interesting premises and mysteries. All the while introducing some new and likeable characters. If you listen to the first one then you know how much it gets into the system. Overall I am looking forward to the next entry.

Would recommend.

I do appreciate that the authors gotten better from the first book and I enjoyed the first book. Small kind of spoilers (there are a couple unfinished plot points that I wish had been resolved and I don't really understand what the cliffhanger means for the main character going forward or what they can do about it) overall good book.

I only wish there were more

This book was as good as the previous one in the series if not more so.

the only improvement they could benefit from would be separating the stat reads into sub chapters so they can be more easily skipped.

They have started to get a bit long by this point, and are often unfortunately dropped into the middle of chapters.

Good world building. Otherwise slow but engaging

I’m really enjoying this series. I like the world building, and the characters don’t feel too one dimensional. I’m not sure everyone would agree with that last statement, given the laser focus on research, but it kept me very engaged right to the end. Really looking forward to the next book

Really great follow up to book me!

This was a really good follow up to the first book in this series. I enjoy the main character and her efforts to sort out how this world works that she finds herself in

Amazing

Amazing books I love the way she explores all the aspects of mana I can’t wait for the next book please keep them coming

need the next book now

there were so many points in this book I thought it could end now and I would be okay, then it ends just when I am getting back into the story and now I need more

Even better than the first book!

This was excellent. There were places in the first book that were a little slow but this one did not suffer from that at all.

Great Improvement

The first entry was good, I think that the author has a bit of a repetitive writing style, and while the full status read offs are a bit pace-breaking, the story is engaging enough to get around that. the improvements to the storytelling and overall fleshing-out of the world are noticeable, and was a enjoyable listen.

if I had to give a slight critique to the author, it would be to diversify their descriptions, especially in regards to describing a character's expression. I distinctly remember the phrase, "... a smile tugging at (character)'s lips" coming up a lot.
