A charming leader must rally her friends to take on soldiers, spies, and an evil duke as this LitRPG adventure for Dungeons & Dragons fans continues.
A Worldwalker in the Great Game, Kandis Hammond has built her character on charisma, social skills, and illusion magic, garnering her many roles in the town of Talnier, specifically secretary of the Town Council, member of the Adventurers Guild, and head of the local bank. And with the town preparing to expand to support its growing population, her agenda is jam-packed. There are diplomatic meetings, budgets, and dungeon builds . . . as well as mysterious notes from fugitive elven bards. Plus, she’s still figuring out which god is her patron.
But all that comes to a screeching halt when Kandis uncovers a disturbing plot helmed by a power-hungry duke. Who knows what he has planned for her? Suddenly, everything she’s worked for could be destroyed.
Now, to save Talnier—and prevent its formerly booming population from taking a nosedive—Kandis must quickly assemble her team of adventurers and an arsenal of spells. If she’s learned anything during her short time in this strange world, it’s that there are some things she can’t do on her own . . .
The fourth volume of the hit LitRPG fantasy series—with more than 600,000 views on Royal Road—now available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook!
If you like the previous books in the series, you're going to like this one. Same snarky main character who makes really intelligent decisions. Nothing seems to be given for free. Good world building. Nothing feels floaty or without background. Definite sense of place everywhere. The main character goes good side characters. Just a solid book all the way around. Looking forward to the next one in the series. The only downside I can think of is if you just try to start reading here, you're going to miss a lot of things and there'll be a lot of background that won't make sense because you won't have the red the previous books and not have the information but that's the only nitpick thing I can come up with. I hope this review helps you. I apologize for any spelling errors. I'm writing this review with voice to text
I really liked this series up until this book. Without going into spoilers, something happens that I'm not OK with, and I'm not sure I want to continue. I read to the end, but it still left a sour taste. And then there's how unlike the previous volumes nothing is really resolved in this one.
Few stories I've read have been so addictive. The author has created an epic that is as complex as The Matrix and Total Recall. Now that I have finished this latest volume, I simply must know what reality Kandis will discover on her continuing journey
I like this story. It was very interesting to find how the character developed more and the adventure she goes through is good. I would like to see more of this story.
