The Games of Olympus: A Cultivation-Esque LitRPG

Theos, Book 2

De: Arthur Wordsmith

Narrado por: Seth Podowitz

In a mythical world full of deities and monsters, a young warrior proves his mettle in battle, forging his legend on a quest for godhood.

During his brief time in the realm of Theos, Luke has faced supernatural dangers and acquired magical abilities beyond imagination. Guided by the God Seed—an ancient artifact bonded to his soul—he walks among champions and the divine. But despite his extraordinary talents and loyal allies, he wears a mask that alters his appearance so those who seek the God Seed cannot find him and extract it.

Meanwhile, war rages on the island that is Luke's new home. The Rebel, Tyrisa of Peles, has ruthlessly slaughtered Emperor Cyzicus's loved ones. Joining Heracles in battle, Luke conjures all the magic at his command to protect and defend Cyzicus's people. Within him, the God Seed insists he deliver the killing blow in order to absorb Tyrisa's incredible power. And he will need all the power he can wield for the contest that awaits him . . .

The god Hephaestus is hosting the tournament of Olympus, an opportunity for the brave and the bold to claim glory and get a step closer to divinity. The competition will be fierce, the prizes otherworldly. Cyzicus wants Luke to participate in the games, as does the God Seed. But amongst the competitors are those who believe his disguised face marks him as a child of Poseidon, as well as his own friends, who find his personality and actions familiar. Should his identity be revealed, Luke will be at the mercy—and the wrath—of the gods.

The second volume of the hit progression-fantasy series—with more than 850,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Nice story, not bad.

The greek myths and cultivation really come together in this book. Mc is still doing a bunch of leveling and tests to pass their version of the olympics and im interested in finding out more of the story in the next book.

great addition to the series

man this book build so great after the 1st .the world building is A plus with the mix of cultivation and Greek mythology works so well.... ends on a cliff hanger too 11 outta 10

👍

I like it better than the first even and I normally never say that I wasn’t sure about the first one but it wasn’t bad it was just a little dry

amazing

loved the first and this is better. I'm sad I have to wait for now. the characters feel like I know them. well done

My favorite part was the ending

That wasn't a joke or shit talk the ending was so AMAZING I wish book 3 was here already the story has been good but the last chapter had so much tea it was like water in the ocean

Great Continuation

I really enjoyed Book 1 of this series and was excited to dive into The Games of Olympus! This installment continues to deliver an engaging story with strong worldbuilding and an intriguing plot. The action and progression keep things moving at a great pace, making for an enjoyable read.

That said, I’m not a huge fan of the “bro”-sounding characters—it takes away from the immersion a bit. While it’s a minor gripe, it does make certain interactions feel less compelling.

Still, I had a great time with this book and truly hope we get the rest of the series to see the story through to its conclusion. I’m looking forward to what comes next!

can't stand books like this

the main character is a simp who believes in the power of friendship, don't bother.

the MC is a master yapper

the entire time I wanted the story to progress so badly,but the damned protagonist just kept yapping. he just keeps reiterating everything that happens. then he talks himself through every step of every decision he makes. just yap yap yap, ad-freaking-nauseum.

MC has a lot of inner dialogue.

Spoiler alert! MC ask a lot of stupid questions and also think’s about running away before every fight.

Good story but really wordy

Very intriguing story. A good mix of Greek mythology with the cultivation lit RPG genre. However, tends to ramble on with a lot of extra words that drags out the story.
