A Superhero LitRPG Adventure

De: Carl Stubblefield

Narrado por: Travis Baldree

Secrets and broken promises. Questions that need answers. Drive can overcome Destiny.

Gus is thrown back in action, still reeling from the sacrifices needed to protect the manor. He’s been thrust into a leadership position he feels ill-equipped to handle and finds himself in a race to find answers. The fraying threads of his past are unraveling, and one mistake can mean they’ll be lost forever.

He teams up with ‘"he Crew", a singular group of supers assisting Gus’ father - Tempest - as he seeks to right a wrong from the past...but it may be too late. The Crew is tasked with finding the hybrid’s secret headquarters, hacking impregnable AIs, and making deals with criminals all while in enemy territory.

Powerful forces are watching Gus and want him as a pawn in their global game of conspiracies against all supers. Against his will, he has become the tipping point everything is balanced upon.

It’s all in a day’s work for the average super, but Gus isn’t sure if he can rise to the occasion, or if the pressure will crush him.

Great world, irritating internal monologue

The world, narration, and storyline are actually extremely good. The universe, setup is all great. The problem that makes me almost put the book down several times are that the main character (MC) is so OVERLY self detrimental, and vacilates between brilliance and stupidity. As such we are forced for long sections to listen to his internal monologue where all growth never sticks, and the negatives could be summed in several lines, but takes forever. It's not that he has blind spots, that's a positive. It's that he, for no reason, backs out of revelations and self reflections where he realizes growth, and then acts like those entire parts of his life never happened. He is brilliant in many things, and thinks deeply about quite a bit, but for no reason given or shown immediately forgets the growth he just made less than a day before. This wouldn't be so bad, if the MC were dumb, or had some other issue causing it, but there isn't one. I also wouldn't be as annoyed if the author didn't spend EXTREME amounts of time on the internal dialogue where the MC is growing, and then putting himself down the next section. You actually see/hear his internal thoughts of growth and overcoming the negatives in his life for multiple minutes, and then for no reason, less than a day later in the story, he has a multi-minute self deprecation fest harping on how useless and pointless he is after just spending as much time realizing he isn't pathetic and that he is helping. Then he ignores his companions who tell him otherwise, or his campanions don't mention the growth he displayed in the past (even the one IN HIS HEAD who had to suffer through the long internal monologues as we do). The Author is spending way too much time setting up angst, and growth (that does nothing the next section), when the MC has actual world impacting issues to face.. And finally we get entire scenes where the MC doesn't use his signature powers because who knows why. If the narrator wasn't as good as he is and the universe setup so intriguing in it's possibilities, I'd probably drop it.

lots of fun

great continuation, loved some the newly developed skills and the direction the story is taking. can't wait for the next book

loved primes development. hope to see more of it as thinks continues. missed the base a bit but the seeing the world a more was really cool

Travis as usual is a great narrator, really bring the character antics to life.

Just ok

This one was a little tough. I feel like the main character backtracked quite a bit. It made for a large swath of the book to be not a lot of fun.

Love The Growth Of Characters. :)

Carl Stubbelfield expands on this world and provides exciting action and more character growth. :)

The best super hero LitRPG continues

Gus and Aurora managed to defend the manor from Manticore. Immediately after, Gus's father arrives with a crew of super heroes. Now, Gus needs to learn to work with a team. The group goes to different locations on missions as we learn more about the group and more about the world in large.

This book introduces a group of new characters and goes into their interesting powers. Some of the new characters are enough where I would like to have a book based off of them! I was originally concerned that Gus was going to become too overpowered to be an interesting character. Fortunately the author does put limitations and consequences on him to even him out.

I highly recommend this series! Side note, each chapter title is an actual song. Take a moment to look them up.
