Introduction to A Game of Two Worlds- Book 2 Inneshys Continuation of an Epic Tale!
Inneshys is the second book in the series A Game of Two Worlds by Boyd Lee. Inneshys picks up the story of Matthew Kinson, where The Royal Duke left off. The novel exhibits the same lightheartedness as The Royal Duke.
The first book captured my interest enough that I went right on to Inneshys. LitRPG/GameLit and Fantasy fans will love this entry if you couldn’t get enough of book one.
Synopsis of A Game of Two Worlds Inneshys The Duke, The Duchy, and Deeper Dungeon Dives
Who is she, really?
When Alister uncovers a hidden dungeon, Matthew takes a chance to bury the hatchet with his enemy. Proposing a portal network to connect places in both worlds raises some eyebrows as it’s challenging and expensive to do. Still, Dunnishire lost much of its settled areas in wars over the last century.
With the power to cross the country, Matthew envisions a portal network and a network of dreams—a school and an orphanage. Yet, goals require funds, driving him to work to become stronger and wealthier.
This time, trouble finds Matthew, Neera, Alana, and Princess on Earth. Hoping to stay ahead of the wave of problems that follow them, they still run the dungeon to progress and grow their stats and levels, enjoying a nice Duke’s Own hamburger from their favorite tavern.
Should the challenges be too tough, Matt encounters an unexpected twist while visiting a new barony. Confronted with a pivotal choice, he faces the possibility of disrupting the stability he’s starting to find or embarking on a path toward unimaginable wealth and opportunities. Embracing uncertainty, Matthew forges ahead on his journey in A Game of Two Worlds.
What this book is: A fantasy LitRPG/GameLit progression-based storyline. There are grownups in this book who act like grownups. They drink, curse, make bad jokes, and fall in love. What’s not in this book? Sex scenes. Graphic or otherwise. There are plenty of jokes and innuendo about it, however.

Matthew and his crew experience trouble on Earth in this entry. Some dungeon dives occur, but there is the need to make money and get loot for the expansion of Inneshys. With the portal development for Alister, the orphanage and school, as well as Dunnishire needing to make more money is a central theme. The story is captivating and doesn’t stagnate.
