Neverfall #2
Neverfall: The Dark Path, Book 2: A Gamelit Lit RPG Series
Dragon Prince, will you choose the Light Path or the Dark? Neverfall does not forgive weakness. It will take everything - and everyone - from you unless you have the power to conquer it.
Luke is haunted by his friends’ near deaths when they faced off against the much stronger Beta player, Manon. While he was able to strike down Manon, and revive his friends using his Special Ability, Dragon Call, he knows that he cannot depend upon the Ancient Black Dragon Asharoth to always save them in the dangerous and unforgiving world of Neverfall.
So when Luke discovers that there are two different magical paths to be taken in the game - the Light and the Dark - he realizes that he has a very serious choice to make. At least, he thinks he has a choice. But does being the Dark Lord’s son mean that he’s already aligned with the darkness? And does Luke, as a potential Dark Path walker, face greater dangers than he realizes?
C. Wintertide is a lifelong gamer and storyteller who has spent many hours playing sword and sorcery RPGs like The Witcher, Persona 5, Final Fantasy, Dragon Age, and also old-school D&D, from which came a lot of the inspiration for the adventuring party of Neverfall.

The style of writing is good as it is clear and easy to understand.
Since both book 1 and book 2 ended in essentially the same place, I think that they should have been one book. I mean, at the end of 1 Luke knew he needed to choose a path, dark or light. By the end of 2, he had finally, maybe, decided on the dark path. I do not like stories that feel circular, where little to no progress is made by the protagonist. This has that feel.
It almost feels intentionally slow so as to need more books just to get to the endgame.
It also seems that Luke suffers from a large and mighty case of indecisiveness, which personally I can't identify with, so this is an exercise in frustration.
