About this listen

Full pirate mode. Dungeons to explore. A quest to gather the eight skulls!

Drew has finally got it all together. First, there is his pocket dimension, a quickly growing area based around his good buddy, Tree. Then there are his students, six random kids he...liberated. Finally, there is the dragon stalking him.

Cultivating, sailing, staying ahead of trouble. That’s his plan as he moves into the creation of his solid Core. Seducing a dragon was a total accident. Nuking an Island? Let’s not focus on the details. They started it.

What’s the best thing to do while getting his magical career and development back on track? Play pirate, of course!

I can’t explain how happy I was to have finished this book. For all the erm… things I enjoyed about book 1… I hated book 2 for almost all the same reasons. The narrator’s pompous voice got old and patronising. Too silly but also judgemental. I was uncomfortable with how misogynistic, sizeist, homophobic and ableist the narrator is. Let’s not even get into the ideas about relationships that were discussed. It became unpleasant to read all round. Do I want to know what’s going on with the planet? Kind of. But not enough to sit through another 18 hours of that drivel three times over! I did enjoy the world building and magic system. I enjoyed the cultivation discussions and the way it was all put together. I’ve not read a book that has a system like that before and it gets kudos for that. It’s just a shame about all the flaws. And, I think that using stereotypes about women, and fat people, and ableist words to describe things limits your imagination. It limits the growth and potential of characters. It limits your ways of expression. For all the potential the magic showed the limitation of ideas on a basic level was too strong to make it worth reading more. I regret reading book two.
