This is second in a system apocalypse LitRPG. You'll want to read in order.
Have I mentioned that I don't like bad-guy PoV? This book starts with a long string of bad guy PoV. I gave up on getting to the people I liked in the first. I figure the pattern is set and the author is obviously more enamored with the villains than the heroes for some reason. Which means they'll likely do lots of damage and be all destroying and stuff. No thanks.

Rating 3.5 stars
This book involves the world fighting for their survival from an outside force. The Orc that was summoned to the world. The strongest users in the world have to come together to fight this battle including Ace and Vincent. There is also treachery from another earth user to deal with. I think the magic system is awesome. There is so much there and almost anything is possible. The characters are written somewhat simple without much depth, hence the 3.5 stars.I would rate the magic system at 5 stars and the characters at 2 stars. Overall it was enjoyable.

I liked this one, but I just realized there weren't much in the way of stats in this one. As far as the characters go anyway, There was brief mentions of rough approximations of stats, but that was about it. No cool new skills, though there was a few bought from the store, but nothing earned via training until near the end of the book, and even those were really only incidental skills they eventually would have gotten anyway. It wasn't a disappointing book, but it certainly could have been better.
I did like it though, and I will read more in the series as I find them, since there were some unfinished plotlines in this one that I'd like to see how they pan out, if done right, it should prove interesting for everyone involved.

unpolished writing, but perfect litrpg story
Milan understands litrpg progression and self-improvement better than most authors.
litrpg elements. 5 stars
dialogues are sub-par. 2 stars
story is great, but not perfect. 4 stars
audiobook narration is sub-par. 2 stars
length is too short. 3 stars
entertaining. 5 stars
conclusion: author is inexperienced but has a superior understanding of his chosen genre. His product has poor to average quality, but achieves an entertainment value far beyond the norm in litrpg.

Story, DESPITE feeling a bit juvenile (better than book 1 though) would have given it 4 stars. The narrator though was... So bad. Normal chatting he could handle (enough of the time at any rate), but then came the laughing parts (shivers remembering how BAD that sounded). Just no.

Picks right up where book 1 ended (as in the first chapter in this book is 50-something) in the story of Ace and Vincent. I'm not as enamored - but it was still good enough to proceed immediately into book 3 and finish that up too.

This was awesome!
This series is developing nicely and looking promising. It was a little bit shorter but awesome nevertheless! I could also be feeling that way because I enjoyed the book too. I'm definitely impressed and looking forward to the next book!

Great second book
Building on the foundation of the first book this entry deepened the story immensely. The trials and hurdles of the hero’s, the losses, the drive of the villain, and the standard of the hero. A wonderful tail and another amazing story.

Wish writing were better
I like the plot and overall story but the writing is rather limited in both books so far. Probably will read third book still.

Desperately needs a good editor. The plot is interesting, but the writing style is painfully hard to read.

Good but short
Good story, but a bit short. A good base primer to the universe the story lives in.
Luckily there's still more books in the series to read!
