When Jay, Seymour, Kira, and Myrin discover a jungle planet controlled by a Dominion mad scientist and her experiments, there are only two possible outcomes: Kill or be killed.
Fortunately, killing is something that the team knows how to do well, so the Dominion doesn’t stand a chance.
Disclaimer: This novel has a harem with beautiful alien women.
Jay is the toughest MC in the history of toughness. He's SO tough, he can't pronounce any foreign word right, like a drooling 8 year old giggling at the foreigners. He's so tough he'll perform no risk analysis on any challenge, 'cuz you know, he'll live by author fiat. He's the toughest tough-guy who has ever toughed anything. He's so cool and amazing and tough and wonderful and the bestest at everything ever.
He's so cool that he'll call the Path of the Reaper a *giggle, giggle* SEX DUNGEON!! OMG Jay, you're SO wonderfully clever and smart and brave for saying the naughty-words.
In addition to this idiocy, he's actively avoiding harvesting souls, because of reasons. Note, he's not avoiding KILLING, he's just avoiding profiting from the deaths. o_O
PS: The interaction with the slaver, torture-murder ship is still lame and weak.
This author's series of books get better by each book. When the author announced the Death Ship series, I kinda rolled my eyes thinking "oh, God just what we need another alien abduction SciFi story." I admit that I had low expectations of the first book of this series, and did not expect to enjoy it like I did.
That being said, the second book of this series is better than the first by a large margin. MSE has settled into the story and characters; offering a rich tapestry of situations and deeply detailed characters.
Well not really, I mean this is pure escapist SciFi harem fantasy. I would like to know more about the twin sisters, and the new addition to Jay's harem. I would love to read about what Syrl looked like before the change.
Lots of implied sex in this book described enough that you figured what was going on, but didn't get described to the point of word porn. I like how MSE let the reader decide if the new harem member had sex with the twins (I believe it was implied, but I could be wrong) as well as Jay.
In harem SciFi fantasy stories MFFF sex is not particularly rare, but I enjoy the way that MSE does not feel the need to describe every time Jay lays with the ladies in graphic detail. A little more details would be nice to confirm if the twins are also sleeping with Syrl as well as Jay, but not necessary.
This book does have a strong LitRPG element to it which I dislike especially the repetitive long lists of options that Jay wades through each time he gets enough souls to upgrade. I find myself flipping through the long menu lists to get back to the story. This is a minor complaint and I will not unfairly punish the author for writing something I can easily flip through.

This is a fun read with Seymour, a homicidal ship, and his kidnapped avatar, Jay as they continue with their fight against the Dominion. He and his new paramour, Kira and Myrin , discover that the Dominion is creating mutant monsters on a remote planet, Koroshi. Whilst fighting, they discover another even more diabolical plot to be stopped. Cannot wait until the next. Minor editing issues,
This the 2nd in the series is a major upgrade from the first. Jay has made peace with the murder obsessive AI and with his 2 female lovers in tow is making plenty of damage against the dominion. However a new threat is discovered that will open up a new facet in their relationship and a chance to reap a treasure trove of souls. Alhough this is a little obvious in parts the guts, glory and the growing bond that Jay has helps liven the story up immensely
I loved this book from start to finish the author did a great job with the characters are going to blow you away our hero a fighting again a evil empire with him a crew of sexy alien women and a AI name Seymor oh and AI is a Ancient space ship a Death ship. A must to read 5 out of 5 stars
I very much liked Kill Count, and I'm happy to say the series is really finding its footing. The sarcastic AI, the skilled but amorous twins, and a regular Joe (well, former Marine) trying to balance it all.
This installment got downright Lovecraftian with some "technology so advanced as to be indistinguishable from magic" next level shit.
This is a great sequel to what had become my favorite of Mr. Earle's works. I love everything about this series. The light litrpg elements, the harem, the concept, etc... This book has it all, and without the need for explaining an entire new world, like the first one had to, it can get right to the action. 10/10
While the begging of the book did seem a little disjointed to me it was a good read. Good story, did seem to go in a direction that I was not totally expecting after the first book. Seems to follow the same path as his other books. If you like the air those you will like the book. Recommend
This book was just as good, if not better, than the first. The backstory was really enjoyable. I truly liked how the author linked everything and expanded it at the same time.
Another fun and exciting book by MSE. The story takes you on a journey from one adventure to the next and although the good guys get their butts kicked from time to time, they prevail.
A wonderful excuse for a steady stream of lethal acts with humorous connective bits of story topped (or bottomed) by a sprinkling of carnal acts. And many explosions.
This book was beyond awesome! It's apparent that Jay has embraced his role as a Reaper, and his bond the Seymour has only grown from loathing ( the first book) to a brother like Comradery. I really look for to the next installment of the series.
Didn’t even know this series existed until the first one popped up as an audible recommendation. It was very entertaining, enough so I picked this up as soon as it came out. Now, I have to wait for book three. Not so patiently...
Double Kill sorta comes short as a title for this story!
Excellent story line and non-stop action and the last third will keep you on pins and needles. Take a DEEP breath and prepare for some really crazy assaults on your senses.
A light fun read, went through both books in a little over two days. They were a fun read, kept waiting for the upgrades. Can hardly wait to see what happens when he gets to level 5 and 6. Only issue is this harem stuff gets kind of old after a while.
Mmm I realy likes the first book i have the Audio 1 And now i want to Read the second 1 but i de there are alredy 3 books but Amazon do not sell the second and 3 books have lookt for other internet shops but dont find 1 Is there a reason ?
This book finds jay fighting all new monsters! Imagine wolverine iron man and duke nukem had a baby. Michael Scott Earle really getting better with every novel.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, the series is only getting better as it continues on. Seymour, the ship's character has come a long way from the first book and is quite funny at times. I like how as he gets upgraded the range of his character is expanded. The litrpg aspects of the book are not boring or repetitive like some books are. I am very excited to get the next one when it comes out.
