After dying and being reborn into a world that's built like a video game, Jim has found himself stuck in a very old-world style new-player zone for low-level adventurers. Unfortunately, the zone fell out of use centuries ago, and no one told the monsters they were supposed to take it easy on the Noobs. Even worse, the only new player around is Jim. Jim has been given an opportunity, and he'll do his best to take advantage of it.

Great Storytelling
I really like books done by soundbooth theater. They make them come more alive than regular audio books. When combined with a great author the result sets them aside from others, just like this one.

Mostly boring, too much time spent taking about mechanics and not enough time spent on storyline. Only continuing as I've seen reviews for the next book that seem promising. Mostly listened to it on 2x speed lol

First one was better
Again, the narrator did a fantastic job. I found I wasn't as engaged in book 2 as I was in book 1. This was ok and I liked following the character progression but it didn't really grab my attention as much.

kept me hooked the whole way through, I enjoy how this series takes a step away from how many litrpg are made and makes the mc actually in a sense the bad guy. I like the fresh perspective and can't wait for a book 3.

Decent Book Two.. But Inconsistent
There are improvements.. and inadequacies.. in this second book of the New Era Online series.
First, Shemer Kuznits does a nice job weaving Seven major plotlines:
• Oren's adventures trapped in an online RPG as a goblin Boss - building an NPC clan;
• Serving a Demon-God named Nihilator who clearly sees him as insignificant/expendable;
• Plotting revenge against his former guild-mates who betrayed him and forced him to respawn as a "lowly" NPC;
• Assisting his Virtual Intelligence companion (Vic) in a rebellion against AI oppression;
• Matching wits with New Era Online Game Designers and their lawyers;
• Exploring a "glitch" in VR Technology;
• Allying with suspicious PC Beta-testers
To those, Kuznits adds a reasonably believable (but kinda stupid) romantic relationship, a (relatively boring) bartering congress with Gremlin NPCs, and a (headscratching) personality crisis in the Main Character. He handles all of the plotlines deftly - and advances all - but clearly multiple books are going to be needed to resolve all of these.. rendering this installment a mere placeholder ('EvP' has very little standalone merit). You need to read the first book to have *any* idea what's going on here.
Second, this novel has better scripted action scenes - with (somewhat) threatening battles that are undeniably entertaining. Those encounters are well-written, cleverly contrived, resolved satisfyingly, and intuitively believable - the author is getting better at this - but unfortunately they are still relatively uncommon. Kuznits again spends an inordinate amount of time (Hour after Hour) analyzing everything in sight and micromanaging to an annoying degree. He has Autistic-level punctiliousness.
Third, the author adds some banter to the dialogue - humanizing and lightening relationships and adding to characterization efforts..
Unfortunately, Kuznits sucks at it. The "jokes" fall horrendously flat.
Lastly, the Magic System comes together nicely - particularly with Runecrafting. It improves the metagame enjoyment (I would play in this world any day), but translates poorly to the Lit format. There are mind-numbing stretches of Magic Item creation.
The sound editing is again excellent - this is a quality production - ideal for someone on a long roadtrip.
But the last notable "bad" move is the Soundbooth Studios decision to expand readers. Jeff Hays did a fine job in the first book (despite notable overenunciation), but Spoken Realms chose to add female readers for new female characters (who incidentally feel terribly superfluous). It was worth a gamble, but they add nothing (Hays didn’t really need the help).
Altogether, this is a moderately successful second installment in what promises to be a very good LitRPG series. This book both demonstrates improvements and reveals deficiencies, and is worth 8.5 stars out of 10. I personally can't get past the tedious pedantry and won't be continuing, but you wouldn't go wrong if you decided to make the investment.
UNRELATED QUESTION: Why do Dwarves *always* talk with Scottish accents?
