Viridian Gate Online: Embers of Rebellion

The Firebrand Series, Book 2

By: James A. Hunter, J.D. Astra

Narrated by: Emily Woo Zeller

A single spark begets an inferno.

The theft of the drug lord Carrera's Faction Seal has set Osmark's empire-to-be ablaze with the hunt for Abby and Otto's heads, but her quest to discover the truth about the ultra-rare item won't wait. There are only days left until Earth's destruction, and the Faction Seal plays some role in Osmark's plan to rule over Viridian Gate Online, the immersive VRMMO game turned humanity's lifeboat.

With nowhere left to turn in Harrowick, Abby and Otto have no choice but to flee to the rebel undergrounds of Alaunhylles—a fading light that was once a beacon of hope in the Imperial aligned city. They come seeking answers in the Grand Archives, but the rebels have their own problems, and their own priorities . . . priorities that might just get Abby and Otto killed before they can find the answers they need.

The enterprising rebel Firebrand will have to dig deep to complete her quest or see all her hopes go up in flames in this next installment of The Firebrand series: Embers of Rebellion.

Parallel Story line with book 2

With many series you expect book 2 to be a hammock Segway to book 3 but in this parallel saga your actually preemptively excited since if you rest the Cataclysm series your aware of the ending.

The story was mostly new material surrounding the Abby character and it was great back story to line up the interactions.

A lot of this for people NOT listening to them back to back 3 days apart will be very helpful and informative back story as Jack and Cutter play a large part of the deeper story line.

Looking forward to listing to the 3rd. 👍🏼

where is book 3

I will have to invest in the rest of the series this was really good. a frustrating taste and Im impatient for more.

interesting

quit trying to convince your readers your worlds fake. Abby is not a good protagonist, she can't make up her mind to fight for the "natives" of vgo or not. while I enjoy a read where it's well defined, black is black, good is good, Abby struggles to decide if she's a hero or not. Give her a bit of spine, some calousnrss and she (and the series) could turn into one of my favorite stories. but please quit reminding her(and us) that the good characters are "just lines of code". Quit beating a dead horse or give her some power over the code. I look forward to the next installment in this series.

Super Outstanding!

Absolutely amazing 🤩! I can not give this installment the rating it deserves. 10 stars! The plot is gripping. The voice actress incredible! I highly recommend it to anyone. On to the next book! GTFO!

👏 🙀 😯

i loved it so much!!! it is an amazing story !!!! ❤️ ♥️ 😍

Book 2 is much better then book one

I was a little bit harsh on the author after reading book one. This episode contained a lot more story and character development. I actually felt a little sympathetic emotion for some of the characters. We still haven't seen the evil guy yet, and at this rate this is looking to be a 14 book series.

Good reader

The reader was pretty good. Got really engaged in the story. Some areas needed to be flushed out a bit, but overall great story.

Good Story

I enjoyed the story. It was interesting seeing another story in the Viridan Gate Online world.

Much better written than first book

liked it, better character progression then first book, not as many repeated phrases. still room for improvement.

Excellent counterpart to Jacks story

I listened to Jacks story first and this fills in all the blanks! Love it!
