Characters and System

Honestly to make a "harem" sweet and endearing takes something pretty special and whether it's the writing, flawless voicing or the consistent humour throughout it combines well to a perfect novel.

Great Second Book

Great story continues, waiting for book 3.
Audiobook has an error though, Half way into chapter 12 it suddenly jumps to a section of chapter 25 and then back to where it should be at the start of chapter 13 which is really annoying. Took a Star off for this, otherwise 5 stars

I loved it

Have gone through book 1&2 in under a week. Just the right amount of humour and spice that made it an enjoyable listen.

Gripping from start to end.

Realistic, funny, devious, with so many plots and layers. Need book 3 now! This is definitely a series you'll relisten too again and again.

Like the author, but i hate this main character

End of book one saved it for me and thought it was gonna progress nicely with some character growth and development, I was wrong. Nothing truly changes at all with the main character, the forced wit and sarcastic responses to everything felt forced and unnatural, which made the conversations he had with anyone cringe and way to long lasting. What I truly hate the most is that the characters feel very one dimensional, they are given the one thing that separates them from the others and it's apparently the only personality characteristic they have.

Love the author but these books are not it for me,

I'll start by saying I have really enjoyed Bruces other work, Dragons Justice was fantastic, Dungeon Diving likewise was great, and I also really enjoyed saving super villains even though that type of story is usually not my cup of tea.. however

From around the 3/4 mark of the 1st book and up until I've dropped it now in the 2nd, i can't help but feel there are significant flaws here, I understand the intention that the MC is trying to cover up nerves etc with snarky remarks and false bravado and honestly in the 1st half of the 1st book it was working very well and i got some very genuine chuckles, however now we're at the point where it feels forced and its in every single conversation without fail, to the point that its so hard to keep track and keep invested in the story and other characters because all we get is snark and inuendo

all the character building feels shallow, the conflicts feel forced, and maybe im just not feeling this particular MC and its on me but I will look forward to Bruces other work

In addition to this, there seems to be some serious editing issues in these books that have not been in Bruce's other series, sections of wrong chapters being played in this book, even in book one rather than a response of "of coarse" all there was was a pen clicking twice

Audiobook needs to be re-edited

Halfway into chapter 12 it suddenly jumps to a section of chapter 25 and then back to where it should be at the start of chapter 13 which is VERY ANNOYING. Takes the shine off a great book
