Arctique Arcane 2

Arcane Arctic #2

by Peter North

Euh... Est-ce qu'elle est censée avoir cette lueur sauvage dans les yeux ?
Jay Morgan a réussi à réveiller sa meilleure amie Molly O'Brian du Sommeil du Portail qui l'avait emportée. Mais Molly a changé après son expérience dans ce sommeil enchanté. Sa nature douce et pétillante est parfois remplacée par celle d'une féroce guerrière que Jay reconnaît à peine. Et cette femme guerrière a des appétits inattendus...

C'est plutôt excitant. Mais Jay ne va pas mentir. C'est aussi un peu effrayant.

Afin d'aider Molly à maîtriser ses pulsions violentes et charnelles, Jay et Lyra — la belle et mortelle archère mi-renarde — doivent l'aider à devenir une Exploratrice. Ce n'est qu'en s'intégrant à la magie du donjon que Molly pourra surmonter ses démons personnels et exploiter le potentiel des pouvoirs qu'elle a débloqués dans le Sommeil du Portail.

Peut-être même qu'elle rejoindra Jay et Lyra entre les draps au lieu de regarder depuis les coulisses ? [Quête secondaire acceptée !]

Mais le chef de Winterhaven, le rusé mi-loup Runolf, fera tout ce qu'il peut pour empêcher Jay et son groupe d'entrer à nouveau dans le donjon. Jay doit trouver des alliés pour soutenir sa cause, monter en niveau et percer le mystère de la corruption qui tient Winterhaven sous son emprise.

Tout ça, et empêcher le donjon à moitié fou de le tuer alors qu'il essaie de le rendre plus fort. Bien sûr. Pas de problème.

About the author

Ogre by day, hero by night...

Peter North has been writing "serious" SF&F adventures for many years, under another name. But there's only so long a guy can be serious before he starts to go a bit mad.

This is where Peter comes to play.

Inspired by Sword & Sorcery of old and HaremLit of new, Peter North's books are a place where men (and open-minded women) can come to experience the intersection of Fantasy and fantasies.

This book continued the excellent work of the first, with a compelling story unfolding before my eyes.

The MC continues to have a strong presence, while getting blatant help from some entity he believes is the dungeon they explore. It gives him bonuses that are a little absurd at times, but it's worked so far.

The harem grows by one, with another queued up just as the first book did. There is again some power leveling going on with the new member, but that should end soon.

Overall, I enjoyed the book. I still hate the start of each new chapter due to the awful choice to have a huge white background with light grey letters, that I find myself having to cover up so I can read the rest of that first page of the chapter. It's really hard on the eyes, so really annoying. That's my only complaint with this series.

Wow what an amazing series!!! This series has been a blast to read and a real can't put it down one as well!! No OP MC, lots of fun interesting characters and a crazy adventure what more could one ask for!!!!

looks like it will be longer than 3, more plot in this one. The fmc's are also growing on me. One thing still need to know is how the dungeon is able to so convincingly make pop culture references...did it completely brain drain him, seems like some lovercraftian stuff.

More of the same. Not much to say, really. I quite liked the first book, and here's more of it.

Warning: The book ends on a major cliffhanger, which I tend to dislike. Not enough to drop a star, but...just be mindful of it.

I gotta say. If it were me, i'm pretty sure i would have kicked Molly out of the party by the time we reached the end of this book. She's a god damn loose cannon and MC does zero to reign her in. What a shitty leader. She just walks all over him.

Tearing through these

Im loving this. The dungeon, the ladies, Jay's style and the class skills. This is Harem Dungeon Crawler Carl in a lot of ways, and I mean that as a huge compliment. On to book three!

A brilliant sequel

A great entry in this series. Loving the characters and world, the action and "action". I'm excited to read more.

Best one yet!!

Meet the undead, more powerful than any enemy Ray’s growing group has fought before. If only the dead would stay dead, this would be a much easier quest.

Arcane Arctic 2 good read

If you like harem stories and RPG, you’ll love this series. I will definitely reread this once I’m done. Well, after reading the author’s other offerings.

Good but too much sexual content
DNF Chapter 12

[Remington Frost · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm a huge fan of Molly's character. I'll probably read the whole series to see more of her antics.
