Space Seasons #2
Spring Mutiny
A new, fertile world. Exposed identities. Deep debt to a Mech Lord.
After escaping with the information they needed, Kyle and his team must plan their next move. While working hard to discover many things about himself, his shipmates, and his denti body, Kyle finds not one… but three stowaways.
An exotic female Kiain who helps him unlock his Kenosi potential, and a deadly Sitha mother protecting her young son. He doesn’t throw them out of the airlock, but pirate and monster infested space isn’t exactly the safest place to be raising a child.
Now fully exposed to their overlords, Kyle doesn’t hold back. He places a winning bid on several top tier Mechs in an obscure part of the galaxy. The final price leaves them with a mission they can’t afford to turn down: they need to rescue the daughter of the local Mech Lord.
Pitted against a heavily fortified base, they need to fight with everything they have to survive.
Spring Mutiny is book two of the four book Space Seasons series, a LitRPG sci-fi space opera set on another world with mechs, spaceships, levels, and… well… pure evil.

I loved Spring Mutiny! And I think Neil Hellegers just narrated the hell outta' this one!!!
Kyle had a steep learning curve in the first book, Winter Harvest, but now that he's got his feet under him, he's hit the metaphorical ground running. I'm not saying that his stats are great, he still has a long way to go, but he's less likely to pancake and re-spawn! (And out in Space re-spawning isn't an option). Anyway Kyle's not afraid to think outside the box and he's always coming up with novel ideas and getting bonus points... which are always helpful when you're playing a game where losing is no longer an option, because now, your very life is at stake!
The best part is that Kyle's found allies. Allies that he can trust to watch his back, including a deadly Sitha boy that he's sworn aligence to!
Go on! Get the book and feed your inner gamer... but need I warn you yet again? Read the books in order. You have been Warned! ... again! 🤣

To me this still feels like a disjoined mess, but just barely interesting enough to keep reading. I still am wondering half the time what the hell is going on. Dawn seems to be intent to spring plots on the reader without any introduction. This is tiresome, and forces the reader to try and connect the dots.

This really is an excellent series. I liked the first book, but this one is even better. I love both the LitRPG and Space Opera genres so having them both in this series is just awesome for someone with my tastes.
The book picks up where the first left off, but I really like where the story has gone in this book. Honestly, the first book seems almost like it could be the first half of this book. I really wouldn't want to lose the backstory, but you could pick up with this book and still enjoy it.
I can't wait to read the next book in this series. If you like space sci-fi or LitRPG, you will almost certainly love this book!
When I read the first book, I had been slightly confused by the title. I have since learned that the author is releasing each book in the series in each of the seasons that the book is named for... So "Winter Harvest" was released in Winter, "Spring Mutiny" released in the Spring, etc. Personally, I think this is probably one of the coolest book-naming methods I've ever seen... It really speaks to the creativity of the author.
I requested and received a free copy of this audiobook from the publisher in exchange for an unbiased review. I was NOT required to write a positive review and this reflects my honest opinion of the work.

Alert
First, my review: “This was a fun book. I am glad that I read it. You should try it too.”
Over the past year it has become apparent that my reviews are somewhat antagonistic and I apologize to those of you that have taken offense. I think I had hoped to change peoples’ minds about reviewing works of art and that seems to have backfired spectacularly. However, I am still going to be true to myself and write what I believe.
To the author: Thank you for this chance to escape reality and enjoy the world you created! Keep up the good work.
To my fellow reviewers: Messaging me and reviewing my reviews is as productive as trying to shovel water out of the ocean. Stop. I get it. Let’s just all live peacefully.
To potential readers: Art needs to be experienced at an individual level. You are the only one that can determine what you like and don’t like. Don’t let others make that decision for you. You should definitely read the book and completely ignore all of the reviews. You are a much better judge of what you will like than anyone here.
Cheers

I got to this book, as the first one finished in a cliff hanger and I wanted to find out if the story would get clearer.
After book one I was full of doubts and quite confused about a lot of stuff, like what is the System, what is Arndale, what actually happened etc. Why in one scene they describe Mechs as extremely expensive stuff, crucial to the base and not for toying with; just to have a full plotline with mech fighting arena as a recruiting process...
It is like "We must go, no time to ask questions!" and there is a flood of scenes and events...
I got to 45% of the book and a struggle to actually read on is too much.

Still very disjointed
I’m continuing to read the series because I enjoy the story, but the writing needs a lot of work. Incomplete thoughts by characters as well as incomplete conversations. Very hard to follow in some spots. Bad punctuation and a multitude of grammatical issues make it hard to read and follow.

Good Reading
A good piece of writing although a bit heavy on the large detailed stats with some great twists and actions. Some particularly good bonding moments that keep the flow going and interesting.

Impressive
The combination of mech, cultivation and levels is amazing and almost seamless. Love it. MC goes through those levels quickly but not easily.

Fun sequel. I enjoyed seeing Kyle continue to progress in this cool sci-fi world. I am interested in seeing what happens next.

Very good read
I enjoyed reading this book and I recommend it very much. If you like magic, mechanical warriors and lots of action.

Sally forth, space warrior! Get lost in the system and the struggle. Cheer them on as they take on the impossible and develop into gods of struggle and resistance!

I wanted to see if this developed a story, it did not.
This is still flimsy. It is a series of things that happen, not a cohesive storyline. The main character should be developing from the idealistic child he was introduced as. Instead he is just becoming idiotic in his reflexive actions.
