Cheep!?: Book 2

By: Michael Adams

Narrated by: Kirby Heyborne

Getting used to living in a new city can be difficult for anyone.

When you're a giant bird, it's a little bit more than just difficult. For Niko, adjusting to city life is only just the beginnings of his troubles in Greenleaf. Deciding whether he can truly trust the people around him is only the beginning. With Niko becoming an adventurer and embarking on The Pilgrimage in order to gain power faster, he's going to need to keep his wits about him if he wants to keep his feathers attached. Though, that's easier said than done with conspiring nobility and secrecy abound.

Worse still is the threat looming on the horizon, something that all of Greenleaf must band together and fight off or vanish into hungering maws.

"Well, that's just clucking great."

Absolutely loved this one! There was plenty of action and Nico seems to have found his place within the world of Alterrra, at least for now! I will definitely be getting the 3rd volume as soon as its released!

Torn

I’m genuinely torn on how I should feel about this book.

On one hand I really like the premise, key mechanics and the general trajectory of the story.

On the other hand I don’t like the pace or the vagueness of certain elements.

It’s not like nothing happened in the book, but if it gives you any idea about this book, they’re still in the same city by the end of it. And they’re still gonna be there (sort of) in the beginning of the next book, if or when, it comes out. Considering the grand plot is to battle gods, the entire series so far feels glacial.

The book also loses points for ending the book amidst an unresolved situation.

It would also help if the pilgrimage or path thing could be better explained. It’s so vague yet it’s also a central element of the story. At first I thought it was some literal path around the globe or something when it mentioned that some who were on it didn’t even make it half way. But then they’re like: first rule of the pilgrimage is don’t talk about the pilgrimage. I don’t get it.

I don’t know if I’ll read the next book if there is one, but if I do I hope that the story will actually move forward at a little faster pace than a snail.
