Summary

Injured and on the run. Desperate but not hopeless. Recovery is a team effort.

Fleeing the destruction of their home in a battered ship, Tytan and his friends have a long way to go to feel safe. Pooling all their resources and his knowledge, the refugees seek help from the only avenue left open to them - the secret training grounds of the Bright Lords.

When a rescue mission demands action before they're ready, Tytan and his friends will discover just how much they're willing to risk to save their future. Rejoin Tytan, Sin, and the crew as they fight for not only their own survival, but the survival of the galaxy-spanning Bright Lord society.

Does not disappoint!

If you enjoyed the first book then I’m sure you’ll enjoy this, there’s a lot more world building which I really enjoyed and the character building is great.

If you’ve read the first then I recommend this one too👏

Not Bad

This 2nd audiobook in the series wasn’t too bad just not enough action for the readers attention until near the end. I did like the journey of the main characters and how they were progressing but half way through I was finding it hard to keep reading as to me this is aimed at teenagers. I eventually finished it and looking back I’ve read worse.

The narration was spot on so the listener could differentiate between characters.

The Bright strike back

This is a good story but..... It's a microwave meal rather than a roast dinner. It fills a gap, there are a few hot spots but overall it could have been a whole lot more fulfilling.
A LitRPG with pointless stats that seem to appear from nowhere and mean nothing, the big bits of the story come frome nowhere and then ding from uncooked mess to meal for one.
The overall story has promise but like the first book seems to want to rush to it's end.
It isn't terrible but it could have been so much more.
Some Star Wars vibes and a good narrator kept me interested and I will check out the next in the series.
Hopefully like the main character it will be a little beefier.

Solid progression in this instalment

As this is only the second book in the series, you could technically catch up with what happened in book one, but that would be a mistake in my view as you wouldn't appreciate the series as much, so if you are considering this book, go and read the previous one first.

This book builds nicely on the previous one, steadily expanding both the mechanics of the skill system and the world-building and lore of this universe, resulting in the series coming to life still further. There was one moment that felt a little rushed in the context of the series as a whole, but didn't detract greatly from my enjoyment of the book.

The narrator delivered another strong performance with distinctive tones that further enhanced my immersion and enjoyment of the book.

Overall, this book contributes good progress to the series while being an enjoyable listen in it's own right.
