Felt the ending lacked closure to the books, but overall I just as please as I was with the first one.

My biggest complaints about the ending:
* annoyed [spoiler]'s Race was left as ???
* the last chapters weren't about Jin or his party
* the series ended but there was so much mentioned that we never saw
* his harem never manifested (Denise was probably happy about that one, lol)

One of the best

One of the best litrpg stories that I have come across recently. Amazing crafting(my favorite bit) but also has interesting magic and skill systems. Characters are also well written. Honestly I almost wish it didn’t end because of how many interesting crafting possibilities were left unexplored.

Why not?

Great character development, f@&$ing awesome magic, and a kicka$$ main character to go with it all. It could have more romance, a skill/spell list, and maybe more charts. I wouldn't mind another book either. Solid 4/5

Tasty and delicious

I read precious comments about the ending toothbrushes and was a bit nervous. It seems I was nervous for nothing....all in all this was another very solid entry in the series.

Absolutely Fantastic Finish!

I can't say enough good things about this pair of books... It was fantastically edited, the pacing and growth of the MC throughout the novels (and yes there plenty of room to grow even though he was seemingly quite OP), I very much enjoyed the entire story arc and really hope for more stories in this world.

For those who read Book 1, you'll be happy to know the formatting of the character sheet has been fixed which made all of the difference in the RPG aspects of this LitRPG novel.

I highly recommend both books in this series and kudos to the author for a tremendously well done finish! :)

Good sequel

Good continuation of the first book, their is a great deal of information about Jim's magic and how he makes his spells and runes. I wish there was a little less of it and more character interaction. Overall great story.

I feel letdown

While the story was good, the ending just seemed off.
To me there was to much left undone. To many loose treads.
I can recommend this story, but don't expect to come away fulfilled.

Disappointing

Very disappointing after the first book because it got to involved in telling the main characters abilities story which got very boring after a while. The ending was ok just to me not exciting.
