À propos de cet audio

One man. One game. One adorable baby dragon.

Two weeks ago, Hector Park cheated death by uploading his mind to the ultra-immersive fantasy RPG game, Archemi. After exposing the rotten heart of an order of dragon knights, he’s now on the run with a young queen dragon who could one day become the most powerful mount in the game.

To get strong enough to face their enemies, they need a quest - a big one. Fortunately, trouble has a way of finding Hector, and it does - in the form of a series of brutally murdered priests, a king in desperate need of a hero, and a beautiful, fiery berserker. The risk? Huge. The payoff? More gold than a dragon’s hoard.

There's only one problem - Archemi is haunted by the ghost of a mad developer bent on making the game his personal playground. And now that the world outside has vanished in a storm of nuclear fire, there's no one left to stop him.

Or at least, that’s what he thinks. Because Hector isn't the kind of man to take this shit lying down.

If you liked the first book, you’ll love the second. The world gets expanded in true epic fashion. I was blown away at the multiple story arcs and how they came together. The performances are also top notch. JTJ again gives impressive performances, as well as the rest of the cast. Definitely recommend and definitely getting the next book.

Book 2 is Amazing!

Baldwin continues to impress! Book 2 continues the plotline in a new realm, introducing new characters and new quests. Hector, the main character, continues to be likable. He also continues to win great successes while simultaneously making things worse, similar in feel to the Harry Dresden books. There's not a lot of news about the real world beyond Archemi Online, but there are a few hints scattered in the pages (er... lines). The book also seemingly ignores most of the main quest, instead focusing on a murder mystery that Hector needs to solve in order to stay safe from the pursuing, angry dragonriders he pissed off in book 1. But as the quest comes together, we come to realize that it's all connected - very satisfying.

As in book 1, there's a lot of crude language and swearing in the book. It's not obnoxious, but there's a lot of it, so be warned not to listen around little kids. There's also one brief sex scene that was more explicit than I expected - well written and short and not out of character, but a bit surprising. Other than that, there's some mild descriptions of torture off screen and threats of genocide, but nothing that was super off-putting in a fantasy adventure.

The readers (Soundbooth Theatre) continue to be a delight. It's refreshing to have music, sound effects and different voices, and they did a good job. This particular book introduced two accents we heard a lot - a kind of Bohemian Eastern-European accent used by most of the NPCs and an Australian accent used by another player. Both took a few minutes to get used to, but both readers did a good job of making every character sound distinct.

I will be pre-ordering book 3 as soon as that's an option.



Just as good as the first

The LITRPG genre is for the large part, a hit and miss sub segment of the sci-fi/fantasy genre. On many occasions you pick up a LITRPG audio book that has a mediocre writing and a just plain horrible MC.

The Dragon Rider series or Archemi Online Chronicles has been a lot of fun and deeper than I would have thought. The MC builds well fleshed out relationships with conflict points and resolutions. The game elements are really a secondary concern as the story takes center stage.

The performance by Justin, Jeff and Laurie are great and the whole audio side of the book is fantastic.

I honestly can't wait to get the latest book on Audible when it comes out.

This series has been a great surprise!

I was given book 1 of this series and loved it. As soon as book 2 came out in audio I snapped it up. I love the characters and the storyline, add my favorite narrators and this series is a best seller in my mind. I wish that my eyesight was good enough to read books again so that I could read more of James Osirus Baldwin's books.

Great book
