Summary

A side quest adventure in the same world as the best-selling Awaken Online series. This story takes place after the end of Awaken Online: Precipice.

Riley's real-life took a nosedive after her confrontation with Alex. The girls at school torment her and she feels powerless to do anything about it. At the same time, Jason has mysteriously disappeared, sending only a terse cryptic message to Riley and Frank.

With some time on her hands and with her frustration with her real-life reaching a breaking point, Riley decides to strike off on her own in-game. Her goal is to investigate the quest related to the strange bow she discovered in the dungeon north of Peccavi. Yet events quickly spiral out of control as she discovers that the bow's former owner has set her along a path of vengeance - with an entire city hanging in the balance.

Poor Effort

The first Awaken Online is a great original story written by an average writer. Overall the story made up for it and was enjoyable.
The second is a little worse and this is a poor story badly written. A real struggle to get to the end. I'll try the next Awaken Online but if it's anything like this I'm done with it.

Problem for me is I'm also reading He Who Fights Monsters and that is brilliant great writing and amazing story. This just doesn't compare.

It's a side story

A side story that to me, really did not add much more than a new interesting class and that is about it.

the story was alright it's more interesting about the character development. so I can't give this a full score since it really feels like a tedious yet rewarding side quests. so a 4/5 is all I will give it.

the performance is as always, brilliant.

GOOD BOOK

I have over 300 audible titles and I have to say that the narration and performance of this book is one of the best I've heard. It's a compelling universe with a great story and awesome characters

Absolutely brilliant!

I must admit that I had skipped this book as I just wanted to listen to the main series of books. I did that because some reviews had put me off, and I needed to know what happened after book 2 ended! This is my second time around listening to this series, so I Included this book now, I thoroughly enjoyed it all! DON'T skip this book, it adds so much more to the main series. Riley is a good character and I now know so much more about what she was going through in-game and out. If all the side quest books are this good I was stupid to have skipped them all!
Great narrator as always!

A great side story

Retribution is a good book which focuses on a different character other than Jason. Riley is a good character in her own right and this book fleshes her out a bit more.

Some sections in Verwald seem a bit rushed but other than a few minor bits a pieces it gives a good insight into what Riley is as a character and shows her development.

I would recommend this book for those who are a fan of Awaken Online and want another good listen.

An important side story, but..

You get to know Riley better and gives her some much needed personal development, but I can't help being annoyed at times by the main character missing obvious conclusions which makes the story predictable at times. makes me wanna skip ahead 30 sec, but I'm afraid to loose something important. Still good to get more familiar with Riley, and I hope they bring this substance into the third book.

A fabulous edition to the world.

I have hesitated on picking this book up due to it being a "side quest" but I am glad I finally have it a chance. The story further develops the character of Riley and surrounds her with a cast of well defined supporting characters. Brilliant.

enjoyed a lot would recommend

a nice addition to the previous books and a closer look at Riley Who originally I did not like but after this book and the kind of turmoil that she goes through really made me enjoy the way that she growed. you kind of need to have read the first two books to get a sense of the world. overall I liked a lof
