Density God #2
Rise of the Density God
Magic, science, and mischief explosively combine in a blast-your-arms-off adventure filled with sphincter-clenching danger. Once again, venture into the mysteries of The planet stuck on hard mode.
All Jiran wants to do is delve ever-deeper into the depths of density and mana—the cornerstones of the magic that permeate his world. Unfortunately, his powers have grown far beyond what anyone could have foreseen. His mentors, unable to shelter him from those who seek to abuse his knowledge, have chosen to flee and whisked him away to the far corner of the empire.
Their efforts are futile, as there are omnipotent forces at play beyond their comprehension. To them, Jiran simply stands out too much, and like the proverbial nail, he’s about to discover that Madra is the mother of all hammers.
Beset on all sides by predators far outside his weight class, and stricken with an ancient malady that both empowers him and counts down to his doom, Jiran will once again have to bend every disadvantage in his favor to survive. But for the only boy willing to blow himself up for science, it might as well be just another day of the week. And what’s a planet to do when every time it kicks an -ERROR- down, it comes back stronger than before? Control him for its own machinations, of course!
As unforeseen events unfold, and all his plans go awry, Jiran is thrown into an adventure beyond his wildest dreams, one filled with far-off lands, new cultures, personal growth, and something or other that’s epic, I assure you.
Don’t miss Jiran as he blasts through this second installment of the wildly popular Density God series. He’ll make new allies and enemies and discover unimaginable secrets buried within him, all while cheerfully blowing the top off his power. Hopefully, before the world of Madra once more throws him bodily into the fire.

A fantastic sequel of an amazing world. This series should be read in order as it is just a single long plot.
The books follow an overpowered MC, Jiran, who inadvertently receives memories from a dead data scientist on earth when ascending for his first time on his world which utilizes elements of system rpg and progression fantasy. The books have an awesome balance between character, world-building, plot and writing, for an indie offering.
In this sequel, our main character continues his adventures as he explores more of the planet Madra, its beautifully fantastical landscapes and people while killing more beasts than can be healthy. The cast and plot are thoroughly expanded, continuing the author's amazing characterisations and world-building. The magic system is quite innovative and the writing is very good.
I was totally gripped and I couldn't bear to wait for the release of the third installment so I immediately headed to Royal Road and read throughout the wee hours. Highly recommended piece of progression fantasy.

Book 2 in a series is when the initial glamor fades and fundamental deficiencies are harder to overlook. I guess I won't say that they are flaws per se, but they definitely inhibit my enjoyment.
Specifically, the first 80% of this book was nothing but a time skip and then a filler episode to explain why there's a new character in the story. Granted, everything would have been even more boring to me if we were stuck with other pov's during Jiran's absence, so this story direction was a losing proposition for me one way or the other.
Luckily, the story started progressing again around the 80% mark. Honestly, the power creep and overly contemporary language from the characters have me pessimistic about continuing this series. I will probably check out the next book and it will be the test for whether I stick with this or not. It's hard to feel good about reading 500+ pages for what amounted to random numbers going up and only a couple of chapters of relevant plot.

A failure after book 1
Much worse than book 1, this try’s to deepen the world building and characters but just falls into mystic woo woo word salad that means nothing. Between that and constantly awkward conversations and little to no real progression just becomes a bad slow novel.
Considering I finished book 1 in one sitting yet this one I can’t finish after a week because it keeps putting me to sleep even when skimming the repeating nonsense is very disappointing,

In contrast with book one, I found little-to-none of the elements that drew me to this story. The series transformed from a funny OP progression discovery journey into a cringey Y/A failed fantasy romance.
There's close to zero exploration of the system and its mechanics, hence very few exploits, hence very few rewarding OP mid-battle-breakthroughs, none of the funny master-discipline struggles, and none of the underdog vibes.
The MC's happy go lucky persona in book one was fun to follow as he was fumbling through an unknown web of system exploits in an underdog position. Yet now in book two I find it awkwardly silly to follow the same persona fumbling in first-romance people-savior OP in new world role solving metaphysical issues of a dying world.
Not going to continue the series.

So I quite enjoyed the first book but rather struggled with this one. Personally I didnt vibe with 'The People' when the MC meets them it becomes full of tropes and cringy dialogue, to be honest I thought I'd have to give up on the series. However it does pick back up around when we return to the empire, at least enough that I'd consider giving a 3rd book a shot.

utterly stupid
This book was horrible, between the story switching the focus from character to character, the vast amounts of internal monologue, the poor attempt at trying to throw in a teenage romance into the works makes for a very poorly written book.

It seems the protagonist is now following a narrow path chosen by another. I'm not sure if that reduction in agency will pay off.
In the first book, his rapid growth in magical abilities was explained away as the result of his knowledge of science on Earth. While this knowledge comes up frequently in this book, it is not leveraged for even quicker gains in Aura control. Thus the reader is left wondering what additional advantage lead to these gains. Perhaps Jiran is also a genius?
Regardless of my quibbles, it is fun to watch him scramble his way up the power ladder. I also enjoyed the whimsical romantic relationship burgenning on a remote island. Mind you, if it weren't for his prior life's experiences it might have been disconcerting to read about a man-sized eight-year-old experiencing sex.
I'll be continuing this series without hesitation.

The author definetly learned from the last book and kept the constant sense of adventure and discovery throughout the book. Personally this is what is interesting in this book series and keeps me turning the pages.
Looking at the fights they are all pretty boring. The main character basically 1 shots everything so there isn't much to read. There are a few interesting ones but they are with other people.
Common tropes can be found throughout mainly the one dealing with learning to trust other people and the speedy romance.

This entire book is to resolve the issues of book one.
Nothing more. All the childish, petulant tendencies of the main character are addressed in a very drawn out, glacial manor. There is an obvious plot device to move story forward into book three. This is development and filler only needed due to a horrible main character.

I enjoyed it as much as the first book. Not much else to say other than I'm excited to read the subsequent books! The only reason I'm writing this is to reassure people who might see some less than flattering reviews of this book as compared to the first... give it a shot I'm sure 99% of you won't be disappointed.

Bestiality ,i didn't know the writer was a fan
Imagine Teresa Palmer in Restraint back in 08,now give her giant rat ears and a tail and claws and a squeaky voice and guttural animalistic language ,now fall in love and bang and tell her all you secrets in like a week
our boy is banging a human\RAT hybrid
the dialogue is something you could only find in Teen Wolf or Degrassi

Not quite as good as book 1 but I'm still interested in the story. The main character is a little whiney and often times I was telling him to shut up and move on already. I'm not really understanding his paranoia with the system. He complains too much about what the system is requiring of him. He's already been through it and it should be common and expected by now but he still complains like a baby. The readers understand his role, what's at stake for the world, why doesn't he come to terms with it already? Why does he revisit the topic over and over again and whine over and over, just accept it already and embrace the role.
I thought there was a little too much repeating and things could be shortened up.
I thought it was frustrating listening to the main character complain a lot about not having enough time to do what he needs to do. I guess I just don't like listening to characters whine and complain all the time. Maybe it has something to do with how it comes across with the narration.

The cover of this book though! There are illustrations throughout the book too and it's just as good. I love getting visuals like this, it helps imagine things better in my head as I read. This book was as exciting as the first book, having Jiran meet a whole new sapient race was *chef's kiss*
I felt really icky that he is only 15 and Mayalyn is only 17 though. I hope ToraAKR gets onto that whole age thing and removes certain scenes.
Other than that, I loved that Jiran coincidentally meets Olive and Cameron once again, after having saved them in the first book. I can't wait to get more and more into this series! Where's the third book???

Good story. Fell off towards the second half of the book.
Overall the story is good. Main character is likeable although there's some filler with multiple explanations of the magical mechanics that becomes tiresome as the knowledge doesn't really move the story or plot along. The second half of book was the disappointment, as the main character was joined by supporting cast with adolescent like relationship that was boring and 8th grade ish. The story seems to be getting somewhat convoluted. Not sure if this book was good enough to warrant reading book three.

The writer clearly grew in talent on the second book
I want to go back and redo my first book review because there’s a clear rise in maturity and writing style here compared to the first book. The MC’s body ages to match his mind, which is good because I had a lot of trouble believing an 8 year old had that level of maturity and insight; even with the help of the memories from earth. There is even some tastefully done light romance. This series is definitely worth getting into for LitRPG fans.

Enjoyed it, but not as much as the first book
The major reason for the way I feel about this book was the pacing and it's structure. Even though I enjoyed it, I still feel I liked the first book even more. But the way it ended softened my feelings a little bit.
This is more character focused, with the majority of the book spent on building the relationship between various characters. I look forward to reading what happens next.

great continuation
The MC’s understanding and power continues to grow while events in the world advance towards conflict. The truth he discovers conflicts with long held beliefs that can save or destroy his Country.
It’s excellent that he has made friends and has a partner that can help him on his journey.
I can’t wait for the next novel.

Solid follow up that does a good job expanding on the world building of the first entry and introduces some genuine intrigue. My main complaint would be the somewhat awkward structuring. The story's climax begins at around the halfway mark and everything reaches a really natural endpoint at around 70% and then it just... keeps going.

another amazing tale
I love the uniqueness of torAkr. In all the books I’ve read the god of density has been the most cohesively written when combining cultivation and litrpg styles. The pace is quick but not without detail and overall has a clearly defined tempo that keeps me seeking more.
Can’t wait for the next installment

I'm still binging the series
Awesome book, awesome, Series. I enjoy almost much everything about it. The author musk loves rescue Rangers because Mayalyn is Gadget. Lol. Still, I love the premise, and I love the power progression. The MC is OP, but there's a reason, and he can spread it. I'm really looking forward to the next book. I guess I'll have to wait.

awesome
Just like book one, but better. The evolution of the MC’s powers and explanation of why he is the way he is was so epic! Still geeking out a little.
Love the art that is scattered throughout the book. Really fun to see how the artist brings scenes and monsters to life in such a graphic way.

Really enjoying this series. The characters aren’t one dimensional and the introduction of old and more characters are awesome, can’t wait to see where this goes next

Is the dude 7 years old or not? Previously it was explained as "I'm 7 but have these memories". Then he magically ages 8 years in a day while in stasis and is acting like an adult, drinking alcohol and teasingly flirting with women. ???

I didn't get the same feel as I did in book one, but I still enjoyed this. It was well written, but felt as if if was building up to something.
I will pick up the sequel. Hopefully that has more of book one.

This was a very interesting entertaining action packed story that I really enjoyed reading. The kid with the memories of an Earth man who was a Data Analyst was very unique.

What an amazing second book in the series! We see so much growth and new characters (and species!) to ponder. We can see that there are new things coming down the line and it is making me want to read the next books in the series. Quite an enjoyable read.

pace
All that dragging and the book didn’t even conclude the trial. What a joke. The pace in this book is a fraction of the previous, but it’s unacceptable to slog through the whole thing just to never even reach a conclusion.
