Ignore the detractors and enjoy it for what it is

Morality is a subjective thing, which is a point expressed often in this. But the reality is that it doesn’t matter in a tale of an air headed, unhinged squirrel girl with godlike powers.

This isn’t as strong as book 1, but is by no means bad. I like the paths it took, and the introduction of a (hopeless) love contender to Durandel was appreciated. I hope that character returns in book 3, and she and Lucia find common ground and manage some degree of relationship. With or without the sword spirit, who honestly continues leaving me a bit ‘meh’. He just isn’t interesting, and is the cause of many of Lucia’s moral ineptitudes. Plus he just has no depth. His goal is to get stronger. Why? To get stronger. And then? Well, get even stronger. ugh. I dislike that manblade. The bunny girl is far better, has a brain, and overall just feels more like an actual person. Which, to be fair, she is and Durandel isn’t.

Mixed feelings.

I went into this not sure the godkings legacy needed a sequel and even after listening to the whole thing.... I'm still not sure. Much of it feels like going through the same motions as the last one in a slightly different setting. I thought it was performed well and it certainly wasn't dull.... but something nags at me,

I think it's the newest member of lucille's scooby gang. without wishing to spoil her exit was heartbreaking. The worst of it is where the first novel had a tight ending this one... kinda drops the ball. I dunno something feels very wrong about where it ended - I cant even call it a cliffhanger it just kinda... stops. leaving major character arcs and plots unresolved especially for the aforementioned newbie who exists the book with baggage still... also get used to lucille talking about sex she won't stop it no matter how tiresome it becomes. Maybe it has to do with how its always interfering with the newcomers plot and that was what I was finding most interesting. The formula ran a bit thin for me this time around and hey I like the formula mostly but I worry we're beginning to repeat set pieces a bit much.

It ends with the promise of another book and... I can't say for sure I'd wanna pick it up. So much of this book relies on a satisfying third installment I have no idea if I should recommend it or not.

Not a great squeal.

The MC is a bully and an idiot. She rapes without a care in the world. Kills millions of people feeling no remorse and blames others for problems she caused. She runs away and will abandon her friends when she's facing a stronger opponent. There basically was no character development from the first story. Its just all her flaws were multiplied by 1000. The new girl that falls in love with her is an idiot too. She falls in love with her after groping her repeatedly.

I'm sad now that it's over

I haven't been in the mood for audio books for a long time now, but leave it to Virlyce to reignite my love for them. If you liked the god kings legacy. This sequal will not leave you disappointed.

Another Amazing Book!

Virlyce and Mare Trevathan are the perfect combination! Cant wait for the next one. Bummer that I didn't get announced at the end as a patreon supporter, though. lol

Love this book

At first it's hard to listen to, but once you get into it, it's a good story. Love it.

nothing new.

it's just the first book, but everyone is a crappier human being. the mc is mentally retarded, as usual, but this time it's all about sex and robbing people.

More crazy Squirrels-kin

Honestly I thought the first book ended right and I didn't feel like there was need for a sequel. This second book felt like the same story from the first book retold with higher stakes and different people. That being said the humor was still the same from the first book and the reverse Isakia scenario that plays out is kinda cool. Although if something really interesting doesn't happen in the next book I'll probably be done with the series. There's only so many times that the same jokes can be told and still be funny.
