*Audiobook review* I never thought I would say this; but Atomic Mage 2 had WAY TOO MUCH SEX SCENE. Book 1, the MC just got portaled and is leaning more about his powers and his new world. I mean, he starts to replace his muscles and bone with metal. He can melt you with his mind and melt you with his atomic magic. He also had a goal, get rich by mining, kill some disgusting slavers and grow a harem. Book 2...it just him lusting after his wives and growing harem. All he thinks about is sex and is having sex. Almost every chapter is the MC having sex followed by a flashback when he does something for his weak-ass plot. Infact, it was 80% sex and 20% story. I mean, it came to the point where he is just nuking his enemies from orbit instead of going out there and bitch slapping a slaver; talk about phoning it in. Followed by a a super 5 way. Also, ever had pudding pop for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Boring right? As a reader/listener, it becomes boring when all you hear the MC is eating dessert all day long. To the point it becomes mechanical for the readers. Garrett A. Carter is better of writing for playboy then write an isekai story. Which is too bad, Atomic mage had great potential.
Good story with fleshed out characters and interesting yet slightly believable enemies. An intriguing plot so far and enemies that mostly fail themselves due to their ideals not stupidity even though the forethought and ability to fix those failings is available to them. Overall a satisfying read will look forward to the next one.
Before anyone bashes my 5* review, yes editing is horrible and needs to be fixed but this is an excellent adult fantasy story!!! Powerful characters, great adult scenes, a wonderful thought provoking idea and characters to love and hate!!!
Why again author has to broke all immersion in story by introducing earth concepts like artificially high age of consent ? What is the point ? especially when character lives in society where it is OK, characters are non-human, with different lifespans and rate in which they mature ?
The story is not bad and some of the humor is amazing. I just can't deal with the typos and grammar mistakes. Hell, the are several parts that are more poorly edited Skinamax flicks from the 90's.
