Adventures on Brad #8
A Capital's Perils
May You Receive the Attention of Those in High Places
Daniel has drawn the attention of the one group he desperately wanted to avoid. The Royal Family has summoned him to Warmount, the capital of Brad. There, he'll have to try avoid noble politics, royal entanglements and keep up with his Adventuring.
Of course, that'd be simpler if the Labyrinth was easier to delve through or if Warmount wasn't a Master Class dungeon.
A Capital's Perils is book 8 of the Adventurers on Brad, a LitRPG young adult fantasy series. Written by the bestselling author of the System Apocalypse and A Thousand Li, it draws inspiration from Japanese light novels like Dan Machi, Grimgar and Konosuba.

Still fun and fast but more focused on intrigue.
Looking at book 8 of the series I have to think that the author will eventually come back to the series after book 9. Mainly that it's because as the adventurers we've been following Daniel and his group are not even halfway through what you would consider their leveling journey. At the same time what we're presented with is a jump forward in time where we're giving a brief glimpse of the life of Daniel and his friends. It remains appropriate for young adults and above. It does someone like a short story than a full-blown story in and of itself. In fact as a series goes it feels as if these last few books are simply part of a larger book.
I look forward to the final book in this Arc of the series. I do hope in the future that the books are longer and contain more in-depth awesomeness. I do prefer stories outside of the RPG genre as they tend to be more sound and solid. Still the characters are interesting and the drama does engage The reader. This was a fast easy read within a few hours it was over.
I do feel that these last two books have rushed through quite a bit when it comes to what our heroes have learned and the abilities they apply it with. There's almost like a quick update as to where they are. Still for what it is the story gets top marks.

solid development
The plot continues along predictable lines. More politics, but mostly remaining opaque and off-screen.
The epilogue adds a nice double-twist, setting up for an interesting final novel.
Clean prose.

Still an excellent series
At this point in a series, I expect the book that does the job to carry you forward.
Tao Wong continued to deliver a gripping and compelling story that, yes, does it’s job but does so much more.
I highly recommend this book and series.

Politics instead of honesty
We do see a bit of adventuring as well as several fight scenes. But more than that, a lot of hurry up and waiting.
It is probably a good thing that there is only one book left. I am still willing to read to the end.

next book please
The secret is out and the level of danger is up. Politics, greed, and violence. Friendships are tested and grudges are born, this was a great book.
