Review: Contender Saga Book II

Rating: 3.8/5

Comments: This sequel came 6 months after the initial book and honestly I didn't remember much of what happened in book one, so diving in cold left me with a lot of blank spots in the story.  I managed to figure it out and plough through it.  It has it's points, and some funny parts.  My interest continues to be lukewarm.  There are some hints of a larger story arc and that has some potential.

Comments:  Normally I forget about the Battleborne series until someone on Discord mentions it, but not this time!  I had it on my calendar and grabbed it shortly after the it released. 

The series has definitely cruised directly into "High Fantasy" territory and the power level is going up.  

This book is just as good as the previous, and I am sure fans of the series will not be disappointed.  There were some storylines that seemed to get a rather final and abrupt end, but maybe that was the intention.

Comments: I have a bit of a mixed track record with Mr. Willmarth, so I picked this up with some caution.  In premise it's your basic Isekai type story, but he manages to make the action and characters interesting enough that it works.  I'll read the next one, and hopefully it continues to be good.

Comments:  This is one of those series that I read, think "that's really good" but then I don't engage with the sequel when it comes out.  I don't know why that is, but this was a really good story.  Maybe I will make the next one more of a priority when it comes out.

Rating: 4.1/5

Comments:  Ok, so I read book 1 of this series so long ago I'd forgotten that I'd read it, but I sort of had an impression that I liked it, so when it came up as a "Continue a series you started" suggestion, I threw it on the "maybe" pile.  I picked it up when I had a lull, and I'm glad I did.  It's a pretty decent story and it kept my interest sufficient that I read it without getting distracted by another book.  Good characters and a large variety of them.  Plus dwarves, got to love that.
