Wonderful experience discovering John Monk’s Chronicles of Ethan! Great setup with an emotional hook that the character enter a game to save his wife, with a unique twist that he wasn’t a gamer before, so there’s some snark and opportunity to make concepts in game less confusing to those who may be new to mmorpgs. The story is solid all the way, but really blew the top off with the end of the second book, and then drove like a steam train through a dragon’s gullet all the way to the end.
